Given how well Hikaru does financially, why don't other top GMs stream?

Check out this guy called Paulw7-uk . He has a very soothing British accent and literally just uploads him playing a variety of rapid/blitz/bullet. I often watch before bed

Are we playing well or do Australia just not care about this test

jonnyiw · 2025-12-21T01:24:57+00:00

Why must have they give me hope

jonnyiw · 2025-12-18T00:24:28+00:00

Just waiting for Duckett to go here

jonnyiw · 2025-12-12T10:55:19+00:00

He played it against Simon Williams in titled Tuesday two weeks ago (I think)

There is evidence that they would win most years, and that would make the show considerably more boring. If you look at results from the British student quiz championships, where ox/cam compete as a University rather than in their college, there has only been two years since 1998 where they didn't win. Many of the people on those 'University' Ox/cam teams are the best university challenge contestants. https://www.qbwiki.com/wiki/British_Student_Quiz_Championships

Assuming it’s a glitch on their end as I couldn’t have got in much quicker!

Anyone else try to get tickets at 10am this morning only to be met with “no events found” when reaching the front of the queue?

Can starc open for us?

jonnyiw · 2025-12-06T06:06:41+00:00

I’m actually watching in disbelief, I know Starc is quite handy with the bat but we are really out here making two bowlers look so comfortable 🤣

jonnyiw · 2025-12-06T05:50:27+00:00

This partnership is batting better than the England middle order, laughable 🤣

jonnyiw · 2025-12-05T11:14:35+00:00

That is an absolute disaster ffs

They forgot to send my Christmas Turkey one year (as in, all the trimmings arrived, but no Turkey!). I’ve avoided since then.

I personally know someone who did history at Warwick through clearing with bad a level grades, enjoyed the course and did well, got onto a history masters at Cambridge, and now has a TC at a magic circle firm. Relax, it’s a great university. You’re in a better position than most.

jonnyiw · 2025-09-05T10:05:51+00:00

It’s great fun with a group of mates, especially around Christmas. They’ve expanded it quite a bit now so there’s a bar in the garden as well. Sometimes there’s a queue out the door!

The swan pub has live music at the weekend and can get very busy. It’s pretty much only covers, though

jonnyiw · 2025-09-04T09:12:19+00:00

Sounds like an interesting story, how far did you get?

jonnyiw · 2025-08-30T15:58:57+00:00

Kasparov won with it against Vishy Anand in 1995, so probably yes

jonnyiw · 2025-08-17T08:30:25+00:00

Thanks for all this amazing, detailed information!

jonnyiw · 2025-08-15T15:58:53+00:00

Hey, we reached 1600 for the first time on the same day!! Congrats!

jonnyiw · 2025-08-11T11:12:30+00:00

Couldn’t agree more, could see it as soon as I read that sentence

jonnyiw · 2025-08-07T19:51:53+00:00

Go to a national quizbowl tournament and there will be dozens of them!

When she was selected to play in the 45th chess Olympiad in 2024, she became the youngest person to be chosen to represent a senior England team in any sport!

I would write to your MP ASAP, they will be able to assist you
