- 2mn for each side for a game,
- 64MB Hash tables,
- one core per engine.,
- pools of 20 engines playing a round-robin tournament,
- each engine meets the other engines four times (760 games per pool tournament)
- the games start from an EPD list of opening positions (so all engines that can't set up a game starting from a fen string are eliminated).
- All engines crashing, losing too many games on time, and so on, are eliminated too, replaced with other engines, and the tournament is restarted.
- The pools are simply populated alphabetically.
- The ten best engines of each pool tournament will qualify for next phase.
Here's the result of the first pool tournament:
