#WWCC2017 video stream on the FIDE site will not go full screen for me. Solution: http://46.224.3.126/?s=40
Is the live video stream working properly? Mine keeps freezing. #WWCC2017
Offical @TheWorldChess site has 4 cams, but only one stream has audio commentary. And board keeps jumping to start pos. #CarlsenKarjakin
Official site @theworldchess saying games should have started (1pm EST) but broadcast not started. Other sites say 2pm. #CarlsenKarjakin

If you're tuning in late, Russia took bronze in the Open Olympiad and USA won gold, or maybe it was Ukraine, we're not quite sure #bakuchess

#BakuChess tie-break should be called the 'FK System' after the two words which people say when you ask them who won (2nd word is 'knows')
