Protector 1.6.0 was linked to Nalimov TBs.
Very balanced in all the phases of a game ! A fine chess engine !
75-80 ELO points increase over Protector 1.5.0 (my estimation) !
Have - you all - a nice weekend !

Over 32,000 fast time control games, 17.1 is ahead of 17.0 by about 10 ELO (on an arbitrary base of 2400), which is outside the error bars. Not a large different but significant.

The chess engines behave differently at different TC ! Fast (ultra fast TC) # blitz 4'+2" (around 15' per game ) !
And 120 games at 4'+2" is enough to shows me the correct trend. I was never in fault. Maybe 5-10 ELO points.
Lets show CCRL & CEGT. At long TC Arasan 17.1 < 17.0 (for the 32-bit version). That's my prediction !
The same for EXchess 7.26bw32 ( < EXchess 7.18bw32).
Hyper-bullet time control it is not an foolproof method. Means near nothing for normal TCs - just my opinion !
Do you remember our old discussion ? Here it is:
http://talkchess.com/forum/viewtopic.ph ... 19&t=49519
"My own tests (38,000 games, hyper-bullet time control) show 16.0 stronger than 15.6..."
Wrong !
CCRL 40/40:
Arasan 15.6 = 2732 ELO .............+20 points
Arasan 15.1 = 2721 ELO
Arasan 16.0 = 2712 ELO
http://www.computerchess.org.uk/ccrl/40 ... t_all.html
Otherwise - often - a new Arasan version is weaker than the previous ! Nothing wrong ! It's normal !
And Arasan is a nice piece of computer chess !
