Ted: some implies 5 min games without increment is futile.

3+2 is better imo. 3+2 don't need so many games that 5m need.

5 minutes or 3 2? I will see a woman (usually) take her shoes off and weigh herself and this always makes me laugh because really what difference does it make? I weigh myself with clothes and my shoes and I do this every time so I am getting a pretty good indicator of what my weight is.

5 0 or 3 2 matches will give you a good indicator of the results. You are not going to see one engine over the other all of sudden get a 40-50% increase in strength from it.

Just loaded Fritz 16 GUI (CHessbase)and was playing around with it and trying to see if you can run engine tournaments with this GUI. Man was I surprised alot of the windows and views are the same as the old Fritz GUI's but quite a bit was changed and some unusual changes were much worse..my version only has one engine (Fritz 16) with 5-6 "Players"...club..patzer..fritz-master
Fritz GM etc. I see no drop down box for adding engines and no drop down box for UCI or Winboard engines...Board design
does not let you customize chessboard squares either....seems to have only "easy game" but no regular game feature
match play feature seems to be gone and the engine tournament drop down feature is completely missing. I have no access to extra engines at all (Stockfish..etc) Perhaps I am missing something (a secret window perhaps) If so let me know..Thx AR :) :wink:

You can add engines, customize the board, play engine matches and tournaments. Here is my customized board playing engine matches live right now on youtube.

Hardware info 64 is the power tool. The tool and pictures is done in OBS when streaming.

Somehow Stockfish 10 seems to crash very often with this F16 GUI, specially when analysing games... :shock:
