One hasn't been made as far as I know. I wouldn't mind joining one in whichever region if someone intends to make one. To get progress towards guild challenges you just need to play games with 3+ guild members. So really as long as I had three NA folks to play with, wouldn't matter much what region the guild is made in.

TV got destroyed like it was free press or political opposition. What did anyone expect?

also good luck finding 3 NA players and then having them show up LUL

For those interested in an NA TL guild, Lord Tolkien and I are in one.
Other regions can join in too and do contracts and such if they want. Only real region specific guild thing for now is that to do the weekly challenges you have to queue up with 3+ guild mates, so if at least 3 EU people join for example they could still participate in the weekly challenges. Contracts can be completed solo as well.

Currently access is open to anyone.
Name: Team Liquidites
Tag: TL-NA

wasn't this always the case with TI immortals?

The ultra rares were always marketable. They only had the one year rule on the others.

I mean chess has an air of dignity to it, so when hikaru pulls huge numbers by catering to the lowest common denominator type with all sorts of reaction vids and cringy stuff, it not hard to see how it could rub some people the wrong way.

They sure do come off as jealous though when they complain.

If I were to judge a book by its cover, i would come to the same conclusion as sn0 when I look at his youtube thumbnails

Nothing against Hikaru, I watch him a decent amount. I just feel like he's started angling his content toward the buzzfeed approach. And it's paying off in numbers, even though the pro chess community doesn't traditionally resonate with those values. He's hardly unique in that approach, and it's not like he's totally stopped making great chess content in there.

Magnus can be an arrogant ass but he's got the game to back his words and he's an inveterate troll, which is amusing.

Yea this is mostly what I was getting at.

Also for what it's worth I'm 100% not a fan of the react type of content either. I don't watch the vast majority of streamers he's done a collab with recently.

Nobody in US pol is talking about those disgusting people protesting without safe distancing. I was going to drop a dank meme post but then I read that apparently twitter is on the side of free speech now and it's like crossing into the darkest timeline. Epstein is probably still alive in that thread.
