 | | waustad: <tabanus>Amazing cross table. Only one decisive game and he won it. |
 |
| Jan-21-10 | | Billy Vaughan: Unlike his other countrymen, Tiviakov's doing creditably, with one loss to the Shirov bulldozer and draws against some of the other favorites: Ivanchuk, Carlsen, Kramnik, and Karjakin. We'll see if he can pick up a win or two against the weaker opponents. |

| Jan-24-10 | | Sem: A really strong player, but watching him roam the Univé tournament hall last year I felt he qualified for a job in the Ministry of Silly Walks. |

| Jan-31-10 | | Sem: <whatthefat> Aha, thanks! Well, what we do not see in this photo is that - somewhat like John Cleese entering his Ministry office -he lets his body (read: stomach) precede his head, which comes a split second behind. Come to think of it, the only one I have ever seen doing something similar was British Foreign Secretary Douglas Hurd, although Hurd's posture was much stiffer. When he rounded a doorway the whole body seemed to suddenly move 90 degrees, taking the head along on its way. I used to wonder whether his policy towards foreigners was similarly rigid. |

| Dec-20-11 | | Birthday Boy: Bogotá 2011 – Frigid and uncaring
When you look at my photo reports sent from all over the world, you might think how nice it is to be a chess-player: You see the world, visit exotic countries and win tournaments. Unfortunately, sometimes it is neither nice nor easy, it is a hard work, and it is not uncommon to have to suffer through very difficult playing conditions. Unfortunately, my last tournament in Bogotá, Colombia, was one of the most deplorable experiences I have ever played in, and my trip there was almost non-stop suffering, despite the lovely city.

Playing the black side of an Indian Game (A46), he was beaten in 48 moves after succumbing to heavy queenside pressure on move 32, when he blundered a piece.Tiviakov fought on for a few more moves, but threw in the towel in light of impending heavy material loss. |
