Magnus Carlsen vs the World

Im updating the game as its going live =P Enjoy ^_^

Damn you Polgar fans... (after 7... e5)

audio has stopped working..

It still works for me =P
wait yeah your right. No audio, and i also have to refresh =P

I have to refresh my browser to get the board to update...annoying...also no audio or video

also we are already lost :(

=.= dont be so negative lol.

heheh...just disappointed a bit...the format isn't working out too well, even if there were no tech problems

I actually cursed when people chose 11... cxd5. Nakamura seems to agree that it was a bad move...

I've been cursing since e5

Ohh god!! Kasparov stopped talking...Pretty sad.

Left hand side column, click the challenge tab, then hit live video... it might work, good luck! I'm watching the game right now.

Yeah..I'd love to hear his internal monologue.

Not getting anything now :(...not even the game page.

Audio is back! Just reload.

I got it worked out...playing moves in one browser tab and getting audio in another seems to be stable

Board is not updating for most of this game. Timer doesn't work most of the time. Seems to be working for some because people are voting but I can't vote because I can't see Magnus' move. Impossible to enjoy this. Disgraceful!

Hopefully they just got more people than they were expecting and the servers are choking...would be a good sign for chess, though it's a shame about the event...I'm having trouble updating this thread. Is this event running on the regular chess.com servers?

 Yeah it is. Its the one used for TV and things too I think.

My guess is network bottleneck rather than server overload, but anyway it's a shame.

I think 10 ...Bg4 was the inital error, that bishop had no legs at all, a waste of time.  The KI is not an attacking opening for black early on, but if you intelligently consolidate and develop it's a very strong defence.  The world forgot that.
