Deep Sjeng c't 2010 has 2926 Elo points (CCRL Blitz).
Expected rating for Seer 1.2.1_x64_skylake is around 3004 Elo points (CCRL Blitz). +145 Elo points face to Seer 1.1_x64_skylake.
Seer 1.1 x64 has 2859 Elo points (CCRL Blitz).

Congratulations !

That's fantastic news. It would seem I succeeded in finally surpassing Deep Sjeng. Some other testers are reporting somewhat higher elo for 1.2.1 so it's possible Deep Sjeng might just be a tough nut to crack for Seer . As always, thanks for testing! The next release will hopefully be substantially faster.

1.-YES ! Congratulations, again !
2.-Deep Sjeng c't 2010 is my favourite engine on 32-bit. Very balanced.

Next week I'll post here my test (in the same conditions) for the buggy Seer 1.2 version. I don't know why..... but seems stronger.

Hmm. I would blame it on small sample size If you add the results from this match to your 1.2 match, you'll probably end up with even better estimate of 1.2.1's strength as the only change with 1.2.1 is the ability to find the shortest path to mate. The circumstances under which 1.2 wouldn't mate the opponent were rare anyways. In testing, the improvement gained only ~5 elo over thousands of games.

Hallo Connor

Thanks!

Here is my test for Seer 1.2 x64-skylake chess engine. The same test conditions like for Seer 1.2.1 x64-skylake.

Looks consistent with your results for Seer 1.2.1 which is good to see. Thanks for testing.
