 | | Penguincw: I believe you forgot to mention that I won the triple crown... that is the <losing> triple crown, to go along with a <losing> double crown, but of course, only one medal counts (j/k). ;) Jokes aside, special congratz to <juan31> who is having a career year. He has just achieved HOF status in <chessmoron>'s contest, then <YouRang>'s contest and now <here>. Congratz to the other medalists, and thank you <lostemperor> for hosting. BTW: Are you hosting Bilbao? I know it's only 4 players (Aronian, Anand, Ponomariov and Vallejo) and 6 rounds (Sep14-Sep20), but if you wish, please let the world know soon, as it's in a week. |

| | lostemperor: <Penguincw> the next tournament will likely be Tata Steel Chess 2015. There are other top tournaments, like in London, but the chess agenda is busy eg. with the World title match in November in Sochi. Four in Bilbao is just too few players. |

| | Penguincw: Sorry for being persistent, but would Tal Memorial be possible? |
|
