Would be fun to see Magnus play against people with their rating hidden and have him guess it afterwards

[@mynameisrandy]

Love this suggestion. Upvoting to help Chess24 see it!

[@user-rs5hb6gd8e]

that will change nothing since in real chess clubs people play without numbers too and titled players win =)

[@IVIasterIVIind]

@@user-rs5hb6gd8e It's not that not showing rating might give them a better winning chance. The interesting part is seeing is Magnus can correctly guess their rating from their strength of play.

I came from Watching Hikaru blitz speedrum part 11 and now I can realize the difference between these 2 super grandmasters. But the way Hikaru is frequently doubting about his position and next moves, and the way Magnus normally feels confident about the moves and his position show us why he is the best in the world right now and probably the greatest in history (sorry for any possible mistake, im not native in english)

[@dalriada]

When did he drop a camera?

[@mikechambers9129]

Hey Chess24 Guys: Perhaps you should consider a private version of the UI screen for your BanterBlitz guest players which includes enhanced sorting and filtering of the challenge queue. For example: - it could automatically filter out non-premium users and non-conforming time requests - it could identify previously played challengers - it could sort the challenge queue by a variety of criteria It doesn’t sound like a lot of coding to me, and I think it would let your guest players focus more of their time/energy on playing chess rather than navigating the challenge queue.

[@tericklePlayer]

A World champion, by essence is a phenomenom, However Carlsen is a killer, GM or IM are demolished so easily in BC,unbelievable !
