Michele Borghetti and Maurizio De Leo arrived at airport last night after a weather-related flight cancellation in New York on the 9th. I joined them for dinner and brought them to their hotel.

Carlo Bordini also sent me some links from the Italian sites and wrote:

On the site of the FID (http://www.fid.itor http://www.federdama.it) you can see the reference to the link of match website. You can se also some Italian newspaper that talk about the Match. The (pink) "Gazzetta dello Sport" is the best and most sold Italian sport journal.

Richard, you are right, Gazetta dello Sport is a massively important publication and it is great to see the match getting such large press overseas...
congratulations to all involved FID, ACF, WCDF ...

The live feed + gold token updates are top class ............well done to all involved

I'm sure both players are pleased to get the first game finished to settle the nerves.

Game 2, Moiseyev's 13th move..did he really spend 20 minutes on this, or did someone forget to make the move at Goldtoken...?

[Jay H]

Need to "tighten it up" a little bit fellas.....Goldtoken is at times 5-6 moves behind, and most time I can only see Borghetti's half of the board.
The world is watching.....make it count....

[Jay H]

We're working on it, Jay. There was a series of several fast moves toward the end of the first time control on G2, so it took me a while to catch up. As to the camera, I think we'll make some placement adjustments after this game to ensure more consistency. Right now it's on the same table as the board, so when there's a lot of table movement the angle switches. Also, I have to keep the camera plugged into my laptop, so sometimes I bump the cord by mistake.

gotcha !!!
Allinall, an excellent production....just knock out these little bugs and make it a perfect production....
AA++ so far, keep up on GT and center the stream, and it will be AAA+++...it don't get any better than that.....

[Jay H]

Jay, can you check the stream now and see if it looks okay from your end? I taped down the cord and camera.

Looks great !! When does the next game start..?

In a few minutes-- I think everyone is finished with lunch. Joe LoConti brought deli sandwiches for everyone, along with some gourmet cheese and olives.

yeah...you were seen enjoying them......live,...John Acker in "Man Vs. Food".....
Keep up the good work !

Now there's an idea for a tiebreaker. Alex would still win though!

Emphasis added....
is this your official prediction for the outcome...?

[n1ck]

I don't know if this has been brought up or if its allowed, but can you cut to a snapshot of prog analysis of the current position every now and then? I don't have access at this time :[
