@itsyaboidougie alien number system numbers zero onwards: 0, 1, 2,3, 10, 11, 12, 13.... so in that system 10 corresponds to four in human language. When alien says it uses base 10 it means base 4(for humans as 4 is only present in human number system which is base 10)
@kayrocs1@BortnykChess Oleksandr was literally rated 2785 10 years and has maintained such high ratings for a decade. Why don't we decrease magnus' classical rating by 100 points and ask him gain back his rating if that's his true rating?
@aravind Magnus is on autism spectrum. He struggles with being diplomatic or showing humility. He says what he thinks without any hesitation. He has praised and criticized Guki. Racists and Indian news channel will always try to stir up drama for clicks, but Indians should see through it
@GMSokolovIvan@FIDE_chess I don't think it's an issue. I believe there's an exception for the federation requirement not to apply in Swiss tournaments if there are enough foreign players --- see 1.4.3.d.
All the best to Henry for the norm! 🤞
