GM Axel Smith is trying to make history by playing against 49 opponents blindfolded simultaneously! It would be an amazing task in itself, and especially because Axel seems like a nice guy while the current world record is held by repeat rapist Timur Gareyev. ace-chess.com/blindsimul/

So, credit where credit is due. The former world champion Vladimir Kramnik has united, however briefly, MrDodgy and Emil Sutovsky, who runs one of the big international chess organizations, around our shared understanding as human beings and fans of the game: Vladimir Kramnik is an abominable troll

Screen grab of MrDodgy retweeting FIDE CEO Emil Sutovsky. Both post more frequently on Twitter and MrDodgy is frequently critical of Sutovsky and FIDE. The quoted tweet reads: "I find Kramnik's latest address to David Navara quite outrageous. No, more than that. Inhuman. You might be in your right legally, or maybe you are not. But one has to go over the edge to attack like that a person who clearly exposed his major mental struggles. I really think it gets too far. No matter who is right legally, and whose wording was more (im)precise. There was nothing in this particular dispute, that is worthy of such an assault on a fragile person, let alone colleague. Let us show some support for David. He needs it."

Reading the QueenRosieMary blog about Chess GM Christopher Yoo punching a women from behind with numerous witnesses and predictably there is commentator that somehow takes Yoo's side. These animals are not as much the problem as the chess federations/clubs/websites that refuse to confront them.

A post saying: "Lets not jump to conclusions without listening to what Yoo has to say. We’ve seen many cases in which the allegations of a woman were not as initially potrayed and someone’s career can be ended by those allegations. We know nothing about this situation but what the woman said, and apparently there is no evidence but her word. She may be right, but maybe things are not 100% as she paints them. Just saying"
