    2022 WFRCC: Magnus, Hikaru & FIDE cheated Wesley So, who should've been 2020, 2022 & 2024 candidates wildcard because Wesley So won in classical games (45+15=60) while Hikaru won in rapid games (25+5+2.5=32.5min).

    That's the summary. The ff is the long version.
    ---
    2 questions
    Q1
    Why isn't it unfair to Wesley So that FIDE lowered the WFRCC time controls from 60min in 2019 to 32.5min in 2022 ( w/o changing the name of course to 'rapid WFRCC'. if they change the name, then there's no problem ) considering the ff things?
    ---
    Thing1
    In the 2019 WFRCC, Hikaru & Magnus did better in 15+2=17min games than 60min games. Wesley So did better in vice-versa.
    ---
    Thing2
    Afaik
    - (0min,10min) = blitz
    - [10min,60min) = rapid
    - [60min,120min) = classical but unrated for 2200+ players.
    - [120min,infinity) = classical
    Hence, Wesley So should be the CLASSICAL WFRCC and then Hikaru is the rapid WFRCC.
    Wesley So beat Magnus 3x CLASSICAL games in a row HUMAN VS HUMAN, no computer prep!
    The last time this happened was Vishy Anand vs Alexei Shirov in 2000 FIDE classical WCC! (Not to be confused w/ 2000 PCA classical WCC where Garry cheated Alexei.)
    Wesley also had played the most classical 9LX games (14), won the most (6), drew the most (8), lost the fewest (0) and was the only player to never lose.
    ---
    Thing3
    Yet for some reason FIDE insists that both 32.5min & 60min are 'slow rapid' while 17min is 'fast rapid'. They didn't even define these terms.
    Check out the maths here:
    I see only 2 reasonable definitions for slow & fast rapid.
    -Def1 - Slow rapid means unrated classical [60,120) & fast rapid is rapid [10,60).
    This means:
    - There's no classical WFRCC.
    - Wesley So is slow rapid WFRCC.
    - Hikaru is fast rapid WFRCC.
    - Hence, Hikaru is NOT a successor of Wesley So.
    -Def2 - Fast rapid & slow rapid cut up rapid [10,60) into resp [10,35) and [35,60).
    2 issues here:
    - 60min is not in either of these intervals.
    - Also, 32.5 is in [10,35).
    So neither 60 nor 32.5 are slow rapid. Lol.
    This means:
    - There's no slow rapid WFRCC.
    - Wesley So is classical WFRCC.
    - Hikaru is rapid WFRCC, specifically fast rapid WFRCC.
    - Hence, again, Hikaru is NOT a successor of Wesley So.
    - Def3 - The definitions must be: Since 15+2=17 is fast rapid, we must have
    - [10,X) fast rapid &
    - [X,120) slow rapid, for some
    17 < X < 32.5.
    Like say X is some arbitrary number like X=20 or X=30. Lol yeah right!!
    ---
    Thing4
    Conclusion:
    I believe the 2022 WFRCC was a conspiracy to get Hikaru / Magnus to win in parallel w/ the Hans Niemann situation. Think about this:
    - Magnus quits the 2022 Sinquefield Cup. 1 day later, Hans Niemann, an American rival of Magnus, is harmed in another tournament, the 2022 CGC in that Hans is removed!
    - Magnus quits the 2023 WCC. 1 month later, Wesley So, an American rival of Magnus, is harmed in another tournament, the 2022 WFRCC in that the time controls are reduced w/o changing the name!
    I hardly believe this is a coincidence. I bet Magnus even directed (or conspired w/) FIDE to remove (and hence cheat) Sergey (not American but still Jewish like Hans & Bobby) from the 2022 candidates. Sergey's replacement Liren even cited the ff as role models: Magnus, Garry & Veselin instead of Wesley, Bobby & Vlad ( as described in FlNsFKeq-iE ).
    Of course there's no conspiracy at all if FIDE just says
    'Ok Wesley So is classical WFRCC & Hikaru is rapid WFRCC. Sorry for the confusion!'
    For chess:
    The ability to play chess is the sign of a gentleman. The ability to play chess well is the sign of a wasted life.
    For 9LX:
    The ability to play 9LX is the sign of a gentleman or a lady. The ability to play 9LX well is the sign that you're not Magnus Carlsen. LOL!!!!
    ---
    Q2
    Consequently, why shouldn't Wesley So have been a wildcard in 2020, 2022 or 2024 candidates as the 2019 WFRCC winner considering
    -Fabi was a wildcard in the 2019 WFRCC quarter-finals as the 2018 WCC runner-up, not by FRC virtue
    -Hikaru & Magnus were 2019 WFRCC quarter & semi-finals wildcards, by FRC virtue for the 2018 unofficial WFRCC but lol the 2018 game itself was obviously for chess virtue
    ?
    Well I suppose there's that being good at chess means you'll be good at 9LX but not vice-versa (unless you're Magnus lol)...

    • @vizualedit0r481
      @vizualedit0r481 День назад

      Then indeed black is very winning. After Rg2+ Kf1 Ra1+, white is forced to sack the bishop on d1 and trade a rook on e1. Eval is -7.57, basically resignable. Nice catch, and poor play by the opponent for missing that.
