When the task is finished, we should get a photo of Bojun Guo so that we can make a marble or bronze bust of him to put in the chess hall of fame.
Right next to the bust of Ronald.

I want to see his photos and show him in my article about EGTs. Does anyone have or know where to look?

All 7-piece tables have been built. I have also renamed the folder(removed "_testing").

Now the full set is at:
ftp://ftp.chessdb.cn/pub/syzygy/7men/

Final sizes: Exactly 5 months!

Congrats! It's a milestone.

I still haven't bought more disks. Have to plan that at some point…

Wow, congrats!!!!

Quick glance, I see some amazing things, compared with Lomonosov EGTB:
- so short building period (5 months on non-supercomputers vs 6 months supercomputers)
- so small size (17T vs 150T)

----
Now I am curious about 8 men. Perhaps they will take about 4 years and 200T to build on non-supercomputers? Doable
