Can we invite Kramnik and Topalov to tweet each other too? Let's have a Bughouse match and settle this. Carlsen and Topalov vs. Giri and Kramnik!!
You should get some sort of a prize for this brilliant idea.

But actually I can only feel sorry or Giri. He did nothing wrong and his tweets were not even ridiculous.
Magnus way overreacted and if anyone's tweet is ridiculous it's his.
Magnus is getting more moody and temperamental. Maybe he's losing it ... too long at the top ?! Haha. Love him tho - hope we get some grudge match drama
Maggie just trollin and being counter trolled, gotta luv it, hope Maggie gets a spankin though, love it when he loses.
It was generally in a fun spirit but that 'win a tournament' tweet was just pathetic from Carlsen. Way over-reacted.
Agree with fellow Slovenian 
Wow. Eventually some trash talk.

Mr Giri needs to qualify for the candidates, maybe next time.
Looking forward to this tournament in Berlin which I think starts tomorrow.
Didn't Giri win the Reykjavik Open? What does Carlsen mean win a tournament.
I thought Mr Giri won the last tournament (tata steel) he and Mr Carlsen both played.

no way would bobby the fish ever make himself look so stupid, well i mean about chess stuff.
Actually, I think that would be quite characteristic of Bobby. He had a vindictive side.
"I haven't had any congratulations from Spassky yet. I think I'll send him a telegram. Congratulations on winning the right to meet me for the championship." -- Bobby Fischer (after defeating Petrosian in the '71 Candidates Final)
"I object to being called a chess genius, because I consider myself to be an all around genius, who just happens to play chess, which is rather different. A piece of garbage like Kasparov might be called a chess genius, but he is like an idiot savant, outside of chess he knows nothing." -- Bobby Fischer
