Magnus won in the end
Gotta love it. Apparently there are problems starting to crop up as a result of Blitz and Rapid rules not being fully ironed out. As in, gee who coulda predicted THAT?
Magnus tells the arbiter to GTFO
Magnus is the Poster Boy for “giving a shit without giving a shit.”
There was a CSI episode one time where a guy was found with letter tiles in his throat. What happened was there was a word game tournament (think Scrabble) where if you thought your opponent played an invalid word, you challenged it, otherwise you played on. One guy plays a word the other guy doesn’t recognize, the other guy raises his eyebrow and decides its not worth risking the penalty. He then plays an S to pluralize the word, gets challenged by the first guy, and loses. Later he accosts the first guy and stuffs the letter tiles down his throat and kills him.
If I was Magnus I think that other fella would have had some pieces down his throat
