[lang_nl]Veel Sicilianen en drie overwinningen: Morelia/Linares is veelbelovend begonnen.

The scrolling is great! A real improvement! I noticed the problems with following the analysis in the situation before, but failed to make the leap of thought that could have led to making a suggestion about it. Alas, it's not necessary anymore. Thanks very much.

Good idea that new layout with the scrolling!

Idea: put the title like "Carlsen - Ivanchuk" (also) above the boards: after scrolling the moves on the right, you can still see who is who.

The official website does not work does it?

Not it isn't. They've had problems since the very beginning and actually before that.

wow, that's a proper start... three decisive games, many sicilians, lots of blood, no boring positions... too bad I was asleep!

by the way, why did topalov win? isn't he supposed to lose the first games?

La web oficial como siempre, que pena de imagen. El mejor torneo del mundo con una web penosa, otra vez, les pasa todos los a?ɬ±os.
En mi web podr?ɬ©is seguir las partidas con comentarios.
Muy Bien Anand con negras se impone a Shirov.

It's always good once in a while for Topalov to start a tournament with a win. If I am not mistaking the first game in Corus was again with Aronian, but he lost there ... now the score is even :P. I hope Topalov with be the winner at the end, but I guess the odds are for Anand and Carlsen ... we'll see.

Nice work guys! It's very pleasant to follow the games that way. Is this the awakening of Leko?
