Talk:Corus chess tournament
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Given that it hasn't always been sponsored by Corus, would this be better at Wijk aan Zee chess tournament (with Corus chess tournament as a redirect)? --Camembert
Don't forget that it was held at Beverwijk from 1938-67.--217.155.205.64 14:10, 26 Jan 2004 (UTC)
- Ah, good point. I suppose the current name is as good as any, then. --Camembert
The Russian Wikipedia lists all winners since 1938 (with the exception of 1945 for obvious reasons). Should we do that too? Andries 18:15, 18 February 2006 (UTC)
When you name the winners for 2007 you have to remember that first comes Aronian then only Radjabov since Aronian's Elo coefficient is higher and second, their individual meeting brought victory to Aronian. Aronian is the only one in the tournament who did not lose a single match. I do not mind if Topalov is listed first since his individual score is the best. If we consider all three of them equal winners ( I am not sure how it works in this tournament) then Aronian should be mentioned first because of the alphabetical order. ArmenianNY
- Official word from Corus is that there is no tiebreak. For the record, Kramnik also did not lose any games in the tournament. SubSeven 19:36, 28 January 2007 (UTC)
Since there is not tiebreak then three of them are considered to be the winners. In that case Aronian's name should be placed first, Radjabov second and Topalov third according to alphabetical order of the first letters. —The preceding unsigned comment was added by ArmenianNY (talk • contribs).
- Are you kidding me? I don't think Wikipedia is a good place for you to be. SubSeven 10:24, 29 January 2007 (UTC)
It is none of your business to decide where I have to be or I can be.Ok? Nobody is kidding and thats the way it should be. When today all the Azerbaijani newspapers declare that Radjabov is the winner of the tournament without even mentioning that he is one of three of the winners, you do not call them and tell them that they were kidding. Therefore, mind your business and dont stick you nose in other people's comments. You have to say something then go ahead and write down. And next time if i receive something like this in the discussion place I will report it as an obvious abuse.
