Hi Engin,

a programmer which need games and looking in the games. I like that. Most looking on results only.

Send me a list of 25 participant engines and the time control you like and I play the games you like.

After my SWCR ended, around January 15th, 2012 and I can do that.

Hi Frank,
well its right, i am not only look at the results, i have to look the games to for detecting errors or what is going on there.

i am a advance chess player, not an beginner or profesional strong player, but i enjoy with the games too and want to see what is going on the board.

on Chesswar is Olivier Deville and Graham Banks broadcasting his tournaments and i am nearly alltimes there to watching the games, and its very sad not to see any other programmers there if his engines are playing.
only some handfull and alltime same people there.

of course i cant not proof all games what my engines are played, i dont have so much time for it, but some of them with problems or if its losed the game, i want to look at for sure.

Hi Engin,

if you like I can test your latest version of Tornado with SWCR rules. I believe 4.87a is the latest version. So far I have 4.40 as latest in my database. To many new releases, so I wait all the time and I don't know what is to test here.

If you like to have this games I can do that around Jan. 15th, 2012.

I wonder, so many games in SWCR with so many engines mistakes engines have in newer versions too. Also one of the reasons that I closed SWCR because only a hand full programmers looking in the games.

60% of the programmers should look in all the endgames without resign = on in SWCR. Most problems engines have with bishops endgames. Not sure in case of Tornado, I am not at home and can't look in Tornado 4.40 games.

Really bad, because SWCR database is clear and very good for searching engines mistakes. But perhaps programmers will do that later, I don't know.

I know, the works by Olivier and Graham are all the time very good. From Olivier since a long time. Olivier is a Winboarder from the first time and this one produced quality :-)
