I'm looking for a training partner, I know there was some bad blood in this thread before, but honestly I'd like to apologize for my earlier actions. Regardless of whether I play like a CM, I'd like to get to know some of the people on TL and try and reconcile my poor social awareness from before. So, who's up for some lichess games for fun? What's your handle?

I’m excited to announce a new chess variant tournament, the ChessWhiz Cup, featuring a prize in bitcoins. You don’t want to miss this.
When: 3pm GMT on Saturday, March 21st Duration: 90 minutes. Entry fee: Zero. Absolutely free. Rules: Secret chess variant, to be revealed at the start of the tournament! Grand Prize: 0.1 bitcoins, currently worth about $30. Learn more about Bitcoin at https://bitcoin.org
Usually, online tournaments with prizes are impossible, due to cheaters. Today, using a surprise variant, plus lichess advanced cheat detection tools, this becomes a reality.
For more information, check out the thread in the lichess forum: http://en.lichess.org/forum/general-chess-discussion/tournament-chesswhiz-cup
See you there!

And it looks like Anand might win this one after a serious mistake by Carlsen on move 19

Carlsen is playing Black against Caruana now. Big match! Dutch opening. Carlsen lost his last Dutch defense.

Carlsen is the best chess player of all time. It was hardly surprising.
