Should one be able see live games? I can just see an empty chess board when following the link.

Yes, it is exactly Alexander says.

Strange, I kept checking every few hours but never saw anything.

Should one be able see live games? I can just see an empty chess board when following the link. Also seems like for my engine nothing changed, still getting good positions and blowing them. :D I wonder if in this field where my engine is weakest it might be a good idea to set a high draw score, that...

@Sergio Huge thanks for your efforts. Not only running a great tournament but even fixing Koedem half way through. :D I analyzed the last two games now and the evaluations and moves all were as I would expect. And amazingly two last round wins indeed proved enough for the top 20 despite a horrendous...

Changed

We can see from now with default parameters

Nice, thanks! I will check analysis of the game later however I could already witness it winning against the much higher rated opponent in round 11 now.
(I think with a win last round it might actually still get top 20)

The same thing seems to have happened here, all the evaluations seem slightly off. (depth matches what I would expect) Most of the times the moves agree, though not always. (presumably the slightly different eval occasionally leads to different moves) At this point my guess would be that some evalu...

I haven't worked on this problem at all so the following may be completely stupid, but what if for 50 moves rule you split up your table into two parts, the "normal" large part which works just as it does right now, and then a second small table that has some 50 move rule logic (e.g. have plies left...
