Who will be next WCCC champion ?

[Daniel Mehrmann]

Indeed a very decent improvement at that level. I best him the best of luck in making it to the top ten.

I wish him the same, but top 10 is not an easy catch. It would be more realistic is to try and enter the Free top-10 first, but of course he would have to release a new free version for that.

I was talking about the free top 10.

In that case

10 Pro Deo 1.2 2720
19 Movei 0.08.423 2684

only 36 elo missing.

Maybe when I make movei commercial I may release together with the commercial version something free that will make it top 10(same as rybka and rybka beta) but I did not decide about it.

Note that movei already got better rating than some commercial programs

28 Movei 0.08.423 2684 +26 −26 52.1% −17.8 31.5% 479
57.2%

As far as I know the following are not free:

Deep Sjeng 1.6 1CPU 2666 +42 −43 35.4% +102.7 28.1% 192
50.9%
Nimzo 8 2665 +111 −130 21.7% +212.0 16.7% 30
Junior 7 2618 +75 −78 36.7% +99.0 23.4% 64

next commercial target from the list should be

25 Gandalf 6 2702 +24 −24 37.9% +86.0 30.5% 619

This is hilarious, if I remember correctly I was talking to Uri and not Daniel and it was at a thread in tournament forum.
