Dec-24-15 Carlsen vs Li Chao, 2015 
| |
| MoonlitKnight: I've followed Magnus's games for 13 years and this is one of the most impressive games I've seen from him. In my eyes anyway. |

Oct-21-15 Emory Tate
| |
| MoonlitKnight: I'm sad to hear that Emory passed away at such a young age. I recently played a lot of blitz games against him on ICC. His play seemed to have deteriorated a lot in the last few years, maybe due to health issues, I don't know. The games were always interesting, though. He ... |

Jan-14-15 Vassily Ivanchuk
| |
| MoonlitKnight: Ivanchuk in his prime (and even today) could destroy anyone in a single game or even a tournament. But when it comes to consistency, Carlsen is superior by a wide margin. |

Jul-13-13 Kasparov vs Short, 1987
| |
| MoonlitKnight: I'm reminded of Kasparov's famous remark when it became clear that he would face Short in the 1993 world championship match: "It will be Short and it will be short." |

Jun-28-13 Borki Predojevic
| |
| MoonlitKnight: Currently the highest rated Bosnian player. He plays a rapid match against Carlsen with two rounds today and another two tomorrow. |

Jun-26-13 P Tregubov vs Ponomariov, 2008
| |
| MoonlitKnight: Among the top players, Ponomariov probably has the latest resignations, although another contender is Morozevich. |
