Ok, I give up, I can't see why that pgn game won't post. Anyone help?

just copied the pgn over from chess.com, try quote and reply to see how they're posted.

Semi-related, i think it's his first loss since the messy game against Giri at least years Tata Steel.

Without looking through a database it seems like it has been awhile since I've seen Magnus open a game with c4. Has he done this recently in other games? Off the top of my head it seems like this was something he did a few years back but got away from... ?

I thought that was exactly the way I posted it. Don't know why mine failed.

I notice if you have a line returned then it will choke. If you go through and delete the returns so its all one flowing paragraph it will take the game. It for some reason likes it all to be one flowing line.

That's the first time I've seen Magnus play c4 in four years of following his games.
