it will eventually saturate the 20x256 NN.. might saturate at a higher ELO with a bigger net, but that's not clear

as of now saturation can be checked for with some statistical time-series test, but just from looking at it, I doubt it reached that point.

ponder is an option, not a joke

think it's in the rules that tweaks can be made within season if a play-affecting issue is found.

If Ruy Lopez and Petroff give black 0.40 then why people keep playing the king's gambit 2.f4? Again, after 2.f4 white is much worse but is he lost? We don't know it yet.

We play the king's gambit because it's fun. The damiano doesn't seem like fun at all. More like masochism

Custom CSS sheet with Stylish for Firefox:

Code: Select all

h3 { display: none; }

thx.. but how do I do that in chrome? same code?

the opening is refuted for practical purposes.

if other lines (ruy lopez, petroff, etc.) give black 0.40, why would black hasten to a 1.80 score?

the "no-clone" rule makes sense because most people don't want to watch a league full of SF derivatives

however, it does require defining what is a clone and that's where the mess starts... eheheh

ok, let me rephrase that: everybody there is having great fun

and yes I can speak for everybody because that's what I see

milos, you might think tcec is a joke but fact is everybody is having great fun there.
