Hi all,
I've been running a series of tournaments to estimate the Elo strengh/improvement in the three engines marked below,I always include the previous version of the engine whch has at least 188 games played and a stable Elo in my rating list....
So,my point is,Sage 2.2a has won it's first 4 games in a raw and Sage 5.53 which is supposed to be a big improvement lost all it's first 4 games against the same opponents
Is there somehting wrong with Sage 5.53
Engine1=AliChess 4.08 i Engine2=AliChess 4.16 i
Engine3=Chispa 4.03
Engine4=Esc 1.16
Engine5=EXChess 4.03c
Engine6=nanoSzachy 3.4
Engine7=Natwarlal 0.14 Engine8=pikoSzachy 3.0
Engine9=Rotor 0.2 i
Engine10=Sage 2.2a Engine11=Sage 3.53
Engine12=Scidlet 3.6.18
Engine13=Zeus 1.28
I didn't notice any depth reaching problems in it's games and here is my sage.cfg file:

I guess so,but something is telling me that something is broken in Sage 3.53,an inner feeling,let alone the close observation....

Seems to be okay so far for me, but only 21 games played so far.
I suspect a serious bug Graham in this version,keep a close eye on it,I know that you are a good bug hunter

I excluded Sage 3.53 from my tournaments,in the above one Sage 2.2a gained 5/8 while Sage 3.53 gained 0,5/8
It can't be a random result....

I'll be happy to share any information and results regarding this latest version of Sage....

Hi Wael
I don't have much time for bug hunting (just bought a new house), but i could take a quick look at your Sage 3.53 games. The only thing new in Sage 3.53 from the previous version, 3.51d, is a new bitcounting function. In my testing, this proved to be a significant improvement, so i don't understand your problems. I suspect your computer has a bug.
Seriously, perhaps the bitcounting function could behave differently on different systems. Sage 3.53 seems to be doing well in Leo's Promo E tourney - http://wbec-ridderkerk.nl/html/promotion.htm.
Sage 2.2a is a much older version. Perhaps you could try version 3.51d. If you don't have it, let me know.
Could you send your 3.53 games to davedahlem[@]gmail.com? (remove the brackets)

Thanks Dave for the reply....
YesI know that in leo's tournaments this version is a big improvement and hence my confusion about it's performance.....
Unfortunately,I am not a game collector,I take a look at the engines games to see if something is wrong and then delete them.....
I can tell you that Sage 3.53 plays good until the late middle games then it starts to sink slowly....
Please do send me the 3.51d version,I'll pm you my e-mail
Good luck with the new house,strange enough I moved to new one too at the begining of this month....
Cheers,
