Karpov: wins the world championship for 10 years and went toe to toe on Kasparov in his prime. People: "oh, yeah, Karpov beat that little kid in national television"

kasparov's prime wasnt in his prime in 84/85 he hit his actual peak in 89/90

@@arkos1179 Fine. Karpov went toe-to-toe with Kasparov in 1989 and 1990, with record of +3-4=18. 24 of those games were in the 1990 World Championship match, which Karpov lost 12½-11½. The other one was in the 1989 World Cup, in which their individual game was drawn, but Karpov won the tournament frm Kasparov on tie-break.

@@beeble2003 sure but like, if u watched the match closely. After the first half it was pretty much one sided, sure karpov equalised in game 17. But after that he lost the next game, was totally lost in game 19, but kasparov took a draw, and again lost in game 20. game 23 iirc the one he lost, looked like he was fooling around as the match was over. game 24 which was a draw, was a total win for kasparov, where karpov was down a piece for no compensation, so instead of resigning, karpov kept playing for no reason, so kasparov asked for a draw and retained his extra share of the prize fund. And in 1990 their rating gap was 70 points. And by the next 3 years, Kasparov won most of their encounters, with 2 brutal wins in linares 1992 and 1993

I think the Futurama joke is actually that it drops to -173, which is why the answer to "Fahrenheit or Celsius?" is "first one, then the other." That line doesn't make sense for -40 where, as you say, it's the same temperature on either scale, so you can't reach -40F and -40C at different times. (OK, I had to look up the actual number, but I knew it wasn't -40.)

-20 right?

@beeble2003 2 ай бұрын

@@lukemarks3281 No. The _Futurama_ joke is -173; the temperature at which Celsius=Fahrenheit is -40. -20F is -29C.

Yes -40 is the same temp on both. The joke is -173 is really fucking cold no matter what

I have a question for anybody who either knows a lot about over the board tournaments or who has participated in them a lot. What if a player is physically tired, or maybe has a back pain from sitting for too long, can they request to be given a chair or kind of accommodation so they can either lay down or sit in a more resting position. Alternatively, what if a player falls asleep over the board?

@King.Mark. 10 ай бұрын

@alejandrosierra3743 10 ай бұрын

No. They don't give anything to you and if you can't continue the game you lose. At least you can move around the room whenever you want, eat some food, take some pills, drink water...

@joshmartin7725 7 ай бұрын

You can ask before the game starts and if they’re nice they’ll accommodate you, although it’s really up to how they’re feeling. You can’t ask during a game, though. If someone falls asleep, then nothing happens. If they run out of time they lose, if they wake up they continue playing.
