    Are their any tournaments OS that you would think suitable for James from about July?
    hopefully?
    thanks

    The " Hindu " reports the Anand-Carlsen World title match 12 games will be played in Chennai 6-26 Nov 2013 for 290 million rupees.

    FIDE have not yet made any statement about the match at present.

    Don't book your ticket yet. Carlsen wants a neutral venue with a bidding procedure in accordance with FIDE regulations. The memorandum of understanding has been signed by FIDE and Chennai without agreement from Carlsen.

    Thread split

    I've split the original thread so people can post whatever they want about the invitations on this one without it making the main thread difficult to follow. It's important that people who are looking for invitations can find them easily without having to wade through chatter and requests.
