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).

Source:

https://wp.me/p1w4Rr-1fL

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.)

---

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)...

Imagine that 2001 interview ( https://youtube.com/watch?v=SAWfehKE0iI ) but replace George Bush w/ Magnus, and it's 2022Oct21 at 08:30am GMT+8 (where else?), 6 hrs after 'My lawsuit speaks for itself':

---

8 parts

---

Part1

Mercado:

'We have' for today an AI version of 'one of our friends' resurrected after 14 years - 1972 WCC & honourary 0th WFRCC Bobby Fischer, who 'would like to give some thoughts' on Hans Niemann's lawsuit against Magnus Carlsen, ches***m 'and I think' Hikaru Nakamura 'too, right? In fact, right now, Bobby, good' evening. 'It’s' morning 'right here'.

Fischer:

'Yeah, how are you doing - sure Pablo. Yes, well, this is all wonderful news. It’s time for' f Magnus Carlsen to get h head 'kicked in'. 'It’s time to finish off' Magnus Carlsen 'once and for all'. 'This just shows you that what goes around comes around, even for' Magnus Carlsen. 'That is what has happened' this morning.

Mercado:

'You are happy at what happened?'

Fischer:

'Yes, I applaud the act. Look. Nobody gets' Magnus Carlsen & FIDE 'have been' cheating 'for years'. 'Robbing' & cheating. 'Nobody gave a s. Now it’s coming back to' Magnus Carlsen. F Magnus Carlsen. 'I wanna see' Magnus Carlsen found liable & banned.

Mercado:

'Heh heh. All right.' Magnus Carlsen is a WCC, 'how could...'

Fischer:

'Well, apparently' e's not as much of a WC 'as everybody thought'.

Wesley So,

-my nephew, favourite player and compatriot,

-your former compatriot &

-the most talented player currently

had become inaugural WFRCC by winning all these games. Wesley So had no classical losses in that whole tournament, and Magnus Carlsen had no wins in the finals. That was like my double 6-0-0 in the 1971 candidates, w/c was also a pure knockout, and inaugural WFRCC finals, Pablo. 'Probably hundreds of' players had competed for that. 'How is it possible' “the great Magnus Carlsen”, successor of “the great Garry Kasparov” didn’t get a single win against MY "nobody" successor 'w'esley 's'o?

---

Part2

Mercado:

'Yeah, that’s what people' had been 'asking' in the US and 'here too in the Philippines. Considering' that Magnus had been and even now still is the WCC, wouldn’t e be able to beat Wesley So once…

Fischer:

'What I'm really hoping for now, Pablo', is 'some kind of a' 'scenario where'

-FIDE & ches***m 'will be taken over by' Andrii Baryshpolets & Thibault Duplessis

-they’ll get rid of all the classical regular chess tournaments,

-ban Hikaru Nakamura from twitch,

-sanction Garry Kasparov & Magnus Carlsen, who'll admit to pre-arranged games and apologise to Judit Polgar, Viswanathan Anand, IBM, MSN, Alexei Shirov, Daniel Edelman, Alexandra Kosteniuk, Alireza Firouzja, Daniel Naroditsky & Ian Nepomniachtchi.

'I’m hoping for a totally new world.'

Mercado:

'Really?'

Fischer:

Yeah. How many hundreds or thousands of players did Magnus Carlsen cheat while streaming? 'Justifying it with the most ridiculous excuse that' e was drunk. When they were still money tournaments.

---

Part3

Fischer:

Magnus Carlsen, Garry Kasparov & FIDE are 'based on lies' & 'theft'

They cheated & 'robbed'

-Alexandra Kosteniuk

-Alireza Firouzja

-Daniel Naroditsky

-Sergey Karjakin

-Fabiano Caruana

-Ian Nepomniachtchi

-Daniel Edelman

-Judit Polgar

-Viswanathan Anand

-Alexei Shirov

-Levon Aronian

Almost all of the superGMs. Had these rapid tiebreaks instead of classical Fischer random or classical armageddon w/ auction and let Magnus Carlsen & Garry Kasparov cheat.

'Right?'

Mercado:

'Oo.' (Tagalog for 'Yes.')

Fischer:

'That's the history of' Magnus Carlsen, 'a despicable' player. 'I knew something was rotten in Denmark'. (Hans is of Danish-descent.)

---

Part4

Mercado:

'[Laughing] So, what do you think’s going to happen in the next 24 hours, then?'

Fischer:

'Well,' Magnus Carlsen 'is bellowing, 'told what to say, of course by' FIDE, Garry Kasparov and h lawyers.

Magnus Carlsen & FIDE 'just will not do what they have to do.'

FIDE 'has to say'

-"we’re sorry",

-"our whole tournament format has been wrong for the last several decades",

-"we'll start having classical Fischer random - and we won't force both colours of the same setup",

-"we'll sanction Magnus Carlsen & Garry Kasparov for cheating",

-'and so on.'

Magnus Carlsen 'has to say'

-"I’m sorry",

-"I've been cheating players for the last decade",

-"I'm a TALENTLESS patzer",

-"I don't deserve to be the main FIDE WC anymore than Sergey Karjakin, Fabiano Caruana, Ian Nepomniachtchi or Wesley So"

-'and so on.'

'You see?' And e’s 'not going to admit that. No.' E’s 'going to say'

-“This cheater”,

-“This cowardly lawsuit will be dismissed.”

'I expect soon that' Sergey Karjakin will launch a parallel pure Fischer Random federation, where Magnus Carlsen will be 'still, hundreds of feet underneath – heh' – Wesley So & Ian Nepomniachtchi and will be 'saying', “This dastardly chess variant of Bobby Fischer will never take off!” E’ll 'just constantly talk about' “this cheater Hans Niemann”.

---

Part5

Fischer:

Magnus Carlsen & FIDE are 'not going to be reasonable' and 'admit that' they're the bad guys:

-2013: Returning to round robin candidates - Remember who won that? - 50 years after my complaint in 1963. You think Wesley So wouldn't do better in a knockout than a round robin?

-2016 WCC: Magnus Carlsen beat Sergey Karjakin despite fewer black wins

-2018 WCC: Magnus Carlsen couldn't beat Fabiano Caruana - cf my 1975 WCC conditions!

-2009-2021: Magnus Carlsen cheated Alexandra Kosteniuk, Alireza Firouzja, Daniel Naroditsky & Ian Nepomniachtchi

-2016 Candidates: Hikaru Nakamura cheated Levon Aronian

-1994-2000: Garry Kasparov cheated Judit Polgar, Viswanathan Anand & Alexei Shirov

-2021 rapid WCC playoff excluding Fabiano Caruana

-2022 WFRCC & CGC disgracing my name & variant in favouring Magnus Carlsen & Hikaru Nakamura over Hans Niemann & Wesley So by removing Hans Niemann & making up this undefined term 'slow rapid' and in that they don't yet have a women's WFRCC - Alexandra Kosteniuk could've been inaugural winner

-2022 Candidates: Sergey Karjakin

They've 'always been the bad' guys - well, except in 2019. "Gens una sumus" 'is just a load of' bull. 'It's just a cover for the' tortious 'nature of the' International Magnus Chess-en Federation.

---

Part6

Mercado:

'There are fears, Bobby, that'

-Wesley So might not win 2022 WFRCC because of lower time controls and FIDE won't rename as 2022 inaugural rapid WFRCC

-Ian Nepomniachtchi might lose 2023 WCC because of rapid despite more black classical wins

-Magnus Carlsen will gift a pre-arranged loss to Vincent Keymer for blacklisting Hans Niemann.

-Carissa Yip, rumoured to be dating Wesley So, might lose 2023 girls WCC, like Fabiano Caruana in 2021 rapid WCC.

-2024 rating spot candidates qualifier might be abused cf Liren Ding.

-2023 rapid/blitz WCC will have many pre-arranged draws, an incorrect dress code fines & a personal lounge for a known confessed cheater.

'Do you think' those are 'possible'?

Fischer:

'I think' those are 'possible, unfortunately. That’s the big danger': That, Magnus Carlsen, Hikaru Nakamura, ches***m, FIDE, these 'lunatic people, are going to take us all with them'.

'This is just the beginning, Pablo.' 'Everybody’s had enough' s from Magnus Carlsen & FIDE.

Mercado:

'You think' Hans Niemann is 'planning something else'?

Fischer:

'Yeah.' 'What about' Wesley So & Ian Nepomniachtchi? 'What if they decide to throw in their lot with' Hans Niemann, right?

'What about'

-Fabiano Caruana

-Sergey Karjakin

-Alexandra Kosteniuk

-Alireza Firouzja

-Daniel Naroditsky

-Judit Polgar

-Viswanathan Anand

-Alexei Shirov

-Levon Aronian?

---

Part7

Fischer:

'It’s time for' Magnus Carlsen 'to eat the s, to humble' hself, 'to withdraw' h minions back to Norway and 'to admit that' e's a cheater, baseless accuser, sore loser & thus hypocrite. 'Otherwise,' Magnus Carlsen 'has to be' found liable & banned.

Mercado:

'Mmm-hmm.'

Fischer:

'I mean, look what'

Magnus Carlsen did to

-Alexandra Kosteniuk in 2009

Touched 1 rook but moved another.

-Alireza Firouzja in 2019

Muttered causing distraction.

-Ian Nepomniachtchi in 2021

Touched a knight but didn't move it.

Garry Kasparov did to

-Viswanathan Anand in 1995

Slammed a door causing a distraction.

-Judit Polgar in 1994

Let go of a knight but moved it somewhere else.

-Alexei Shirov in 2000

Denied candidates winner's playing for title.

'Now to me', Magnus Carlsen's & Garry Kasparov's "bullying cheating" 'is worse than' Hans Niemann's supposed online "engine cheating". 'You know why?'

Mercado:

'Why?'

Fischer:

Pareto principle. Anyone can online engine cheat. Almost only world chess champions / top players can bully cheat and get away with it. 'You understand?'

---

Part8

Mercado:

'Yes, I do.'

Fischer:

-'I say death to' Play Magnus, ches***m & FIDE!

-I saynoto2900 !

-F Magnus Carlsen!

-F Hikaru Nakamura!

-F Arkady Dvorkovich!

-F Peter Heine Nielsen!

-F Daniel Rensch!

-F Garry Kasparov!

Magnus Carlsen & Garry Kasparov are bullying cheaters.

-They pre-arrange games and gaslight reporters.

-They're defamatory, tortious, 'criminal, thieving, lying b()ds'.

-Magnus Carlsen 'made up the' b()ds theory. 'There’s not a word of truth to it.'

-'They are the worst liars and b()ds.'

'Now what goes around comes around. They’re getting it back, finally. Praise God, and' 'hallelujah. This is a wonderful day. F' Magnus Carlsen. 'Cry, you' crybaby! 'W()e, you' b()d! 'Now your time is coming.'

Chess doesn't speak for itself actually.

9LX speaks for itself.

I'm sure Hans would agree (based on the hans episode of ben johnson podcast) that 'chess speaks for itself' is correct in spirit but wrong in letter. Let me be more precise:

(Classical-time classical-variant) Chess doesn't speak for itself actually.

(Classical) 9LX speaks for itself.

In chess, you have to say the colour and then opening.

Eg

X as black beat Y in Sicilian Najdorf.

Or Y beat X's Nimzo Indian.

Or X beat Y's London.

In fact, a huge issue of Magnus is that Hans as black beat Magnus.

'I had the impression that he wasn’t tense or even fully concentrating on the game in critical positions, while outplaying me as black in a way I think only a handful of players can do.'

No one cares what colour won in whatever SP of 9LX. You just say X beat Y. White doesn't have any practical advantage in human 9LX. This is why in Armageddon bids are 12min/15min in 9LX but 9min/15min in chess. They give up 100% more time in chess than in 9LX.

- cbarr81 asked:

Do you ever log onto as an anonymous player, and just crush people for fun?

- Magnus admitted in an AMA:

Once in a while I’ve used some of my friends accounts and won a couple of games… or a lot…

Note on axis Vs allies:

They're not just good Vs bad. They're also axis of evil Vs allies of evil.

They're both evil but in different ways. I'm saying that even though the axis of evil is evil, they're still more so the good guys compared to the allies of evil - whom I consider the bad guys.

We may disagree on who the good Vs bad guys are, but I think we'll agree on axis Vs allies.

Axis of Evil is like tax collector, the more conventional, obvious or well-known evil.

Allies of Evil is like Pharisee, the unconventional or inconspicuous evil.

Note re Vlad:

I view Vlad's accusation of Hans similar to Bobby's accusation of Anatoly Karpov & Wesley's wanting Sergey to not be in the 2022 candidates - it's a good guy fighting another good guy. The real bad guy in each respective case is Magnus, Garry & Magnus again. Tsk tsk. It's sad Vlad/Bobby/Wesley didn't realise that Magnus/Garry/Magnus is far more evil than Hans/Anatoly/Hans. Wait, I think Bobby did. Not sure. I think Bobby hated Garry more than Anatoly, but maybe not by much more.

More notes:

1

Wesley So, Bobby Fischer & Hans Niemann have NEVER done ANY of the ff evil things in chess as adults.

Magnus Carlsen, Garry Kasparov & Hikaru Nakamura HAVE done EACH of the ff evil things in chess as adults.

Evil:

-Cheating

-Baseless accusations

-Discrimination (eg by cheating or baselessly accusing people mainly of a certain ethnicity or citizenship)

-Treason

Re treason:

- Magnus betrayed fellow Scandinavian-descent Hans by baselessly accusing Hans

- Hikaru betrayed fellow American Hans by baselessly accusing Hans.

- Garry betrayed 2 fellow Jews Judit Polgar & Alexei Shirov by cheating them.

2

9LX players are more honest than chess players.

- Wesley So, not Fabiano Caruana, is the 3rd highest peak fide classical rated honest player. Fabi is the highest.

- Top 3 are Fabi, Levon, Wesley - all American. Also the 0th & 1st classical WFRCCs (resp Bobby & Wesley) are American.

- Also, Hans & Wesley consider Bobby greatest while Magnus & Hikaru consider Garry greatest. What a coincidence! God bless America! SayNoTo2900!

3

1999Mar25 on Philippine radio:

(Bobby Fischer would've been 2900.)

My rating would be at least 2900, which is a lot higher than Kasparov’s. But in the end, that’s not important Pablo because the point is, I got my rating honestly. All my games are real. I’ve never even pre-arranged a draw. They have nothing on me. That’s why they hate me so damn much - because I’m clean. Kasparov got his fantastic rating by pre-arranging almost all of his games. (...) He’s a crook on a gigantic scale. You know, Eugene Torre could have the highest rating in the world too if he would pre-arrange all his games.

- ( Actually, this further convinces me Bobby would like nephew Wesley & hate Magnus because Wesley = Eugene Torre & Magnus = Garry. As described in https://youtube.com/watch?v=XNHWbgAsZnA or https://youtube.com/watch?v=2d427ys5FrY )

Wesley So on 2018Jun08:

Thank you all for your encouragement and support. I am moving into a new area of my chess development working to win the game instead of taking a draw which I can do easily. With that attitude there will be bad days but that is life. Some players think exchanging a piece and then taking a prearranged draw on move 17 is okay but I don't want to be like them. I fought Fabi as hard as I could and I made a simple miscalculation. I am proud of the choice I made to fight. For everyone's benefit let me be clear that I have never taken a prearranged draw, I never will, and I have never played a bad game to help a friend. My bad games are a result of miscalculation under pressure. There are no free gifts in chess on this level (unless you are from certain countries that everyone knows about). You fight or you die. You have all been great in supporting me. Thank you. Moving on to the next fight.

Sergey Karjakin sided w/ Magnus over Hans ... NOT.

On 2022Sep07, I asked Sergey:

A - Sergey did Hans cheat?

B - Sergey what do you think of the upcoming 9LX tournament in Iceland 2022Oct?

C - Please it's killing me!!!! Do you support Wesley?

Sergey:

A - I have no ideas:). Magnus played bad and Hans played well.

B - I like Fischer chess and it is pity that we don’t have many tournaments on it.

C - Wesley is a hero:).

Q1

Why'd Sergey side w/ 3 Americans

- Wesley So

- Bobby Fischer

- Hans Niemann

over fellow European Magnus?

Q2

In particular, why'd Sergey say

- 'Wesley is a hero'

when earlier in 2022Apr Wesley said

- 'I don't want Sergey to be in the candidates'

Note1:

Each of the 3 Americans, like Beth Harmon, 'is a prodigy, had a rather dark childhood and is American.'

Note2:

In 2022Sep, Russia was still European - didn't yet change to Asian chess federation.)

Note3:

Well, the opposite of this list is:

- Magnus Carlsen

- Garry Kasparov

- Hikaru Nakamura

And afaik Sergey hates them all. Lol.

What's your opinion of Armageddon w/ auction, even in classical?

Well Bobby Fischer was preaching about pre-arrangement but I don't think increments & 9LX are enough to solve this.

I think we have to look to xiangqi where their armageddon has auction and was invented by a player named Ronghua Hu known as - surprise surprise - the Bobby Fischer of Xiangqi!

So I think bobby would like Armageddon (w/ auction) w/c makes every game fair & decisive.

- Plus in particular, bids for black in 9LX go like 12min/15min while in chess they're like 9min/15min since 9LX doesn't have as many draws or as much white advantage (except in computers).

Armageddon w/ auction makes every game fair & decisive.

I believe this'd mean

- A - no more draws but in a good way not in a no stalemate way. And a fortiori no pre-arranged draws

- B - no more rapid tiebreaks. You can play chess w/o Armageddon and then settle classical matches w/ classical tiebreaks

- C - Can have best-of-1 knockouts

- D - All single round robins & single swiss are fair.

- E - There's no more issue of drawing a best-of-4 by compensating for a white loss with a white win & 2 black draws like in 2016 & 2023 classical wcc's where Sergey & Nepo had more black wins than Magnus & Liren.

I notice these 3 improvements of Bobby

- 9LX

- Increment

- Armageddon (w/ auction)

Are used more in rapid than classical but they should be used more in classical!
