We should also not forget about her second, some guy who also qualified for candidates.

[Ramesh RB @Rameshchess]

@chess_insights @julesgambit Why not 2 spots from the World Cup, givdn that tournament calendar is already packed for top players?

[InterestingChessStatistics @ChessInformant]

@chess_insights @chessvaishali We meant - cite and follow us for alerting you on this 😂 more interesting alerts and stats to come in following days, may or may not be the main dish

@EmilSutovsky @Vachier_Lagrave @EmilSutovsky not that hypothetical 😂 fortunate @PHChess hasn't seen it yet?

[MVL @Vachier_Lagrave]

Hypothetical:

Player A is leading the circuit. Last tournament of the year he’s playing uninspired. Player B and C are leading this tournament. Only player B can catch him for the Candidate spot, and A is playing C tomorrow. Predict the result A is aiming for?!

[InterestingChessStatistics @ChessInformant]

@Vachier_Lagrave @anishgiri What do you think Player A might do?

[InterestingChessStatistics @ChessInformant]

It would also provide an easy metric for tournament organisers to invite players that have had less opportunities to play in round robin events

[InterestingChessStatistics @ChessInformant]

Hey @ChessNumbers @chess_insights @GMJacobAagaard, it might be interesting to create a ranking of players by tournament earnings (online + offline) for the year. This incorporates performance, activity, and tournament strength. Thoughts?

[InterestingChessStatistics @ChessInformant]

@ChessbaseIndia might be interested

[InterestingChessStatistics @ChessInformant]

Hey @OnTheQueenside @chess_insights, has Vaishali already completed all the requirements to be a GM? FIDE rules seem to suggest that reaching a live rating of 2499.5 at any time meets the rating requirement

[InterestingChessStatistics @ChessInformant]

@chess_insights @TelegraphChess @HansMokeNiemann @london_chess Hey Mr Numbers, don't think organizers can use which set of FIDE ratings to use. It just depends on the event start date

[InterestingChessStatistics @ChessInformant]

Recently noticed that the @FIDE_chess Circuit 2023 computation only considers the ratings of the top 8 players. The Grand Swiss provides the same points as a round robin with just the top 8 players. Some people might find this interesting
