Who's the Boss?

This have to be worst arena tournament ever right ? Kid with cole system winning because more games played and another player berserk back and Naroditsky flagged Carlsen with big material down. What a joke is this ? This kid is adoption material for Penguin, Carlsen, Firouzja or Naka in real bullet match...

Whoa whoa, calm down, no hate here...

I think Mr. Boss earned his 1st place fair and square, although maybe a bit lucky, its not a joke. He played very well, and even got a higher performance rating than Carlsen. Yes, Carlsen got flagged by Naroditsky, but thats just a part of the game, and if you don't like getting flagged, go play classical instead.
I agree that this might have been the worst titled tournament. IM Boss is not one of the top 5 best bullet players on lichess so it's weird seeing him as the winner. I wouldn't even say he's a top 5 IM on lichess. Props to him, though.
I like the idea of #4 , a women's tournament. A kids tournament would be cool too, maybe broken into age brackets? Great to see another 960 tournament too!
Even a children's tournament is not a bad idea. Perhaps we would divide the age classes this way: one group would have elementary school children and the other would be high school children. In addition, I also suggest student tournaments.
This was one of the most exciting events ever! Lichess Titled Arenas always are :D Watching GM Magnus Carlsen and NM Chessnetwork streaming was amazing. Hopefully GM Penguingm1 will play the next one :)
#19, Penguingim1 DID play, but arrived late. Only five games or so. You can see the tournament in his profile
