At first it should be defined how far Elo could be calculated in CC with never the same "personality". Elo means something about performance of a stable entity with only similar aging effects. So, forget about Elo for CC programs. It's poor luck in such an event. In that case JUNIOR wins because it's unknown, at least less known than Rybka 3 in the eyes of its clones.Steve B wrote:Kinda hard to vote when the exact hardware in still unkownswami wrote:Instead of creating a new thread, I created a poll in this thread.

we see that an Octal is worth perhaps 150 more Elo then a single core and most of these engines are within 150 Elo of each other

That's difficult considering that Sjeng would probably running on Quad that's nothing special in the field of stronger engines with better hardwares.Graham Banks wrote:Sjeng to come 2nd this time.swami wrote:Instead of creating a new thread, I created a poll in this thread.

But I agree that the engine part is improved, not sure if it would play the significant role.

I almost forgot to check the results, So I see that there are many people who would rather see some other engine finish first. I voted for Shredder btw.
