Carlsen never plays 1.e5

Carlsen never plays 1.e5. He prefer 1.c4 opening up the c file. He plays more passively.

It's all about layers of memorization and preparation, if he wanted to Carlsen could play 1e5 and probably will someday.

Carlsen never plays 1. e5.  He plays 1. e4 and 1...e5.

Mister-Horse deserves to be addressed by his formal title:

He prefer 1.c4 opening up the c file.

Out of curiosity - why the flag?

They are cancelling "The Interview". I was so looking forward to that movie.

So... you're protesting by changing your flag to a North Korean one? Why not just use a promotional poster for the movie as your avatar, or something else that's obvious?

cornbeefhashvili

I like my avatar. Besides, no one else seems to be using this flag anyway.

macer75

Well... I've seen a couple of people using the flag before. A lot of them got banned (not that I'm suggesting there is any direct correlation between those two).

A great feature, the trollograph.

I got mine in a second hand shop. A bit wobbly, but it still shows 0.58 (probably going down a little as a result of peer influence, of having too many other people with a trollograph on the thread).

We'll keep following further developments though.

No one plays 1. e5 because it's an ILLEGAL move.

Oh dammit, I should have looked before posting.
