Next modifications, but one is very important and may not wait.
I closed all links to previous (11.x) versions.

It ends the main part of my project, thus now a longer break.

The "IQ" test is a very important part of my project (Sting) and doesn't contain middle-game tactical positions and technical endgames.
Here are positions dedicated to test so-called by me quasi-intelligent abilities of engines.
They show full spectrum of possible problems for clessic alpha-beta engines.

Set parameters: "threads" to 1 and "hash" to 1024 and clear hash before each of items.
Don't use such external tricks like: rule-50 changing, null-move disabling, "backward-forward" moves, special parameters and others.
MultiPV, tablebases and "Monte Carlo" are not welcome too.

Time to solve each of items should be 30 minutes for 1 000 000 nodes/second speed. It means 3 minutes for 10 000 000 nodes/second only. Of course, the going on last depth should not be broken.

The DRAW result means ZERO score or a missing gain.
The WIN result means the correct solution mainly and any gain.

The "IQ" test is a very important part of my project (Sting) and doesn't contain middle-game tactical positions and technical endgames.
Here are positions dedicated to test so-called by me quasi-intelligent abilities of engines.
They show full spectrum of possible problems for clessic alpha-beta engines.

Set parameters: "threads" to 1 and "hash" to 1024 and clear hash before each of items.
Don't use such external tricks like: rule-50 changing, null-move disabling, "backward-forward" moves, special parameters and others.
MultiPV, tablebases and "Monte Carlo" are not welcome too.

Time to solve each of items should be 30 minutes for 1 000 000 nodes/second speed. It means 3 minutes for 10 000 000 nodes/second only. Of course, the going on last depth should not be broken.

The DRAW result means ZERO score or a missing gain.
The WIN result means the correct solution mainly and any gain.

Thanks again for all your work, Marek!

Next modifications, but one is very important and may not wait.
I closed all links to previous (11.x) versions.

It ends the main part of my project, thus now a longer break.

I find sting to be extremely useful for analysis of difficult problems and compositions.
For some, it is the only engine that will solve them.

A well deserved break - thank you very much for sharing Sting with us - it is a must have engine!

[lech]

If you can see, I added an item "0" to the above "iq" test.
It seems to be an extremaly easy mate in 5 moves.

It means that if an engine is not able to solve this position, it has no sense to continue the test.

Some notes:
Most of your positions have non standard things in them.
In other words, chess engines and chess database systems cannot process them.
They are not legal as PGN or EPD.
I have made legal EPD records out of your data.
There are still some minor issues. For instance, chess engines and chess database systems will not have a method to check for a plan. So I left the plan data as comments.
Note also that there is already a test set called IQ, so I gave id names of Sting-IQ to the positions.

I don't like your EPD version and other words too. It is far of my idea.
For me, the "IQ" (not IQ) test has a very good name.
It is dedicated to authors of engines mainly, and to all who want to know ways of ELO and "IQ" abilities of engines rather maybe.
I explained what means for me the "IQ" abilities.
It is not a mechanical test and it is to help, and not to create some doubt rankings.
Sting proves that it is possible to solve many difficult questions but of course others may do it in a better way.
The "IQ" test can help them much.

Some notes:
Most of your positions have non standard things in them.
In other words, chess engines and chess database systems cannot process them.
They are not legal as PGN or EPD.
I have made legal EPD records out of your data.
There are still some minor issues. For instance, chess engines and chess database systems will not have a method to check for a plan. So I left the plan data as comments.
Note also that there is already a test set called IQ, so I gave id names of Sting-IQ to the positions.
