Hi Swami,

Thanks for running this second gauntlet for NG5.

Strange, strange, strange results!

It looks like Graham's trophy edition of RomiChess will be playing in your next edition.

That's the cool prize to award the winner,Thanks

I heard from Alessandro yesterday that his new Hamsters beta has surpassed Kiwi's strength and has shown progress in 300 games he ran. Romi has to catch up with Hamsters!

Once I reach my goal of 70% vs Hamsters 0.2 then I will tackle the latest available version of Hamsters. Sofar, after 28 games of 100 in a 4'4 match it is Romi +16 -3 =9 for 73%!

When I first saw Alessandro's Hamsters, I knew that it has the potential to be one of the great programs. That is why I am so glad that Alessandro is working on it again.

+17 -3 =9

It feels as though someone has just dropped a safe from a three story window onto the top of my head. After game 79 Romi stood at 75%. In the last 21 games Romi only scored 2 points.

Ninja Girl code is based on history tables and Bob says, that history tables are no better than random data. Given the very random behavoir that RomiChess has displayed lately I think that he may be right.

I have gone back to the Death Kitty series and will have RomiChessDK7 ready to go in a couple of days, give or take.

It's due to learning feature mostly, because the book used is Noomen Pgn.

Yeah you can send me any version of Romichess provided you did some updates or bugfixes.

If you have got 3 different version , Then I can test them in gauntlet next edition dividing the number of games to 15 games each version against 10 engines. and it atleast would give you the first impression of which of them are stronger.

Regards.
