Amazing results of LeelaKnightOdds-Dev

[Father]

I wonder if lc0 calculates based on probability that I do not see the threats of it.

What is the idea behind the blunder 27.Bxc6 bxc6 28.Rxe5+?
Does leela hope that I do not see Rxa5
Maybe it is the best practical chance but I usually do not blunder simple captures like that and I played Qa5 for a reason to defend e5 after trading the knight.

I am leading 16-9(today I won 10-7 that is worse than my score yesterday that was 6-2)

It is a blunder in the sense that massive trading is a blunder when way behind. Most likely the net, being trained on knight odds games only, hasn't learned much about how to play when down by a queen. I expect that a net trained for queen odds will eventually appear in the bot and that should show another large jump in performance. One such net already exists but is not available for use or testing.

So now number 1 on the list is a player with a very high bullet rating, probably a master, number 2 is "father", number 3 is a famous Backgammon grandmaster (and a close personal friend of mine), and number 4 is Uri!

In summary: "We are facing a great challenge regarding the expectations about where the evolutionary journey of the great LeelaQueenOdds and the human opponents, in "Man Against Machine", open tournament aspects, and other alternatives of battlefields.

LeelaQueenOdds versus a player superior to 2600 elo, some months ago, when LeelaQueenOdds was wirh minus power than Newdays …

It has indeed won some bullet games against players rated above 2600, even 2700, while in blitz it has won against at most 2503 rating. I find that it is too easy for me to win against it at 3'2" (that's about the fastest I can play decently), but that probably won't be true once it gets upgraded to a net trained specifically for queen odds, which may happen this month. Meanwhile the knight odds bot has done amazing things, playing 190 games at 1' + 1" against a player rated over 3100 without a single loss (!!), just 26 draws.

...these are two great news for everyone, Mr. Larry Kaufman. Thank you for allowing us to enter the combat of men against machines. In this way, now I will fight to occupy a position among the hundred best players who face LeelaKnightOdds. Of course that does not mean in any way that I am going to abandon the fight against modules in their "standard forms." I wonder: There is already a list, Mr. Larry Kaufman, that informs us about the Top 100 human contenders of LeelaKnight. If this list exists, I will fight to be part of it. !! My current priorities in chess warfare objectives are called: "Oddsmachines."

... "Winds of chess war of man against machine." LeelaKnight against Catecan (Father) in time level of 1+1. The first steps of Father's fight against LeelanigntOdds have begun. Today is November 8, 2024; For now it has only been skirmishes. Today there were 12 combats; 10 wins for the computer and two 2 draws. Consequently, my effectiveness range for the day is 2 draws in 12, which would represent just over 31 draws on a base of 190 games. The silicon horse "LeelaKnightOdds" will surely go to the manger to rest and feed, in the meantime, I will be preparing new battles. Good night I wish you.

I wouldn't expect a Leaderboard for LeelaKnightOdds, because almost no one ever wins a game (occasionally either an IM or GM or a cheater wins), so it would just be a contest to see who could induce more draws by repetition, which isn't very interesting. A future version might try much harder to avoid such reps.

I find that it is too easy for me to win against it at 3'2" (that's about the fastest I can play decently), but that probably won't be true once it gets upgraded to a net trained specifically for queen odds, which may happen this month. Meanwhile the knight odds bot has done amazing things, playing 190 games at 1' + 1" against a player rated over 3100 without a single loss (!!), just 26 draws.

...these are two great news for everyone, Mr. Larry Kaufman. Thank you for allowing us to enter the combat of men against machines. In this way, now I will fight to occupy a position among the hundred best players who face LeelaKnightOdds. Of course that does not mean in any way that I am going to abandon the fight against modules in their "standard forms." I wonder: There is already a list, Mr. Larry Kaufman, that informs us about the Top 100 human contenders of LeelaKnight. If this list exists, I will fight to be part of it. !! My current priorities in chess warfare objectives are called: "Oddsmachines."

... "Winds of chess war of man against machine." LeelaKnight against Catecan (Father) in time level of 1+1. The first steps of Father's fight against LeelanigntOdds have begun. Today is November 8, 2024; For now it has only been skirmishes. Today there were 12 combats; 10 wins for the computer and two 2 draws. Consequently, my effectiveness range for the day is 2 draws in 12, which would represent just over 31 draws on a base of 190 games. The silicon horse "LeelaKnightOdds" will surely go to the manger to rest and feed, in the meantime, I will be preparing new battles. Good night I wish you.

What is the idea behind the blunder 27.Bxc6 bxc6 28.Rxe5+?
Does leela hope that I do not see Rxa5
Maybe it is the best practical chance but I usually do not blunder simple captures like that and I played Qa5 for a reason to defend e5 after trading the knight.

I am leading 16-9(today I won 10-7 that is worse than my score yesterday that was 6-2)

It is a blunder in the sense that massive trading is a blunder when way behind. Most likely the net, being trained on knight odds games only, hasn't learned much about how to play when down by a queen. I expect that a net trained for queen odds will eventually appear in the bot and that should show another large jump in performance. One such net already exists but is not available for use or testing.

So now number 1 on the list is a player with a very high bullet rating, probably a master, number 2 is "father", number 3 is a famous Backgammon grandmaster (and a close personal friend of mine), and number 4 is Uri!

In summary: "We are facing a great challenge regarding the expectations about where the evolutionary journey of the great LeelaQueenOdds and the human opponents, in "Man Against Machine", open tournament aspects, and other alternatives of battlefields.

I see no reason to think that you can be in the top 100 of the world against Leela queen odds assuming the best players compete and same for Leela knight odds.

The best players simply do not compete in this competition.

Even if your performance with knight odds is better than some 3100 player because the player does not try to draw by repetition then ir does not mean that you can be in the top 100 and I guess a lot of players with 2500 elo can draw by repetition more often than you if they try.

It has indeed won some bullet games against players rated above 2600, even 2700, while in blitz it has won against at most 2503 rating. I find that it is too easy for me to win against it at 3'2" (that's about the fastest I can play decently), but that probably won't be true once it gets upgraded to a net trained specifically for queen odds, which may happen this month. Meanwhile the knight odds bot has done amazing things, playing 190 games at 1' + 1" against a player rated over 3100 without a single loss (!!), just 26 draws.

...these are two great news for everyone, Mr. Larry Kaufman. Thank you for allowing us to enter the combat of men against machines. In this way, now I will fight to occupy a position among the hundred best players who face LeelaKnightOdds. Of course that does not mean in any way that I am going to abandon the fight against modules in their "standard forms." I wonder: There is already a list, Mr. Larry Kaufman, that informs us about the Top 100 human contenders of LeelaKnight. If this list exists, I will fight to be part of it. !! My current priorities in chess warfare objectives are called: "Oddsmachines."

... "Winds of chess war of man against machine." LeelaKnight against Catecan (Father) in time level of 1+1. The first steps of Father's fight against LeelanigntOdds have begun. Today is November 8, 2024; For now it has only been skirmishes. Today there were 12 combats; 10 wins for the computer and two 2 draws. Consequently, my effectiveness range for the day is 2 draws in 12, which would represent just over 31 draws on a base of 190 games. The silicon horse "LeelaKnightOdds" will surely go to the manger to rest and feed, in the meantime, I will be preparing new battles. Good night I wish you.

I wouldn't expect a Leaderboard for LeelaKnightOdds, because almost no one ever wins a game (occasionally either an IM or GM or a cheater wins), so it would just be a contest to see who could induce more draws by repetition, which isn't very interesting. A future version might try much harder to avoid such reps.

Thank you very much, Mr. Larry Kaufman, for the information. But first of all, thank you for your time, and for the interest you have shown and the deference towards me. It is clear to me that you are a world chess champion, a title and rank of GM achieved at an age of more merit and that is why you are a great example of a person to follow, and that is why I will always continue to communicate with you with the expression "Mr." For me it is a matter of respect. In my opinion it is a real shame and regret that a ranking table of the 100 best human players in the world against LeelaQueenOdds is not built. I was willing to fight not only there but also in other ranking tables, in order to occupy a good and worthy position in the table of the Top 100. I do not want to speculate what exact place I would reach there in the table. But it is clear to me that I was willing to use all my combat cards. My goal was not to beat LeelaKnightOdds, it is much more than that, my goal was to beat the best humans on the leaderboard, the chess programmers, the computers, the stereotypes, the standards, and I did not care at all if my opponent was the reigning world champion of human chess, or if it was another representative of our human race. Among my battle weapons would of course be that which teaches that "the faster you move, the slower time is for you", AI and I know very well which author of physics I am referring to. Lichess has its technology to hunt down and punish cheaters, and that is precisely why I aim to be a fast player, to avoid being cheated from the other side of the board and to avoid any environment of fraud. So it would be easy to clean up the leaderboard, to make the ranking list clean in a pure and simple way. I am clear that, despite having temporarily proven my performance above the performance of a player higher than 3100 elo, they want to disqualify my anti-computer game system, even at the cost of supposed bugs, erase the rules of chess on the limit and use of time, on the lack of value in the use of the law of repetition of moves, even if it is the fabrication of an elaborate strategic technique, and others that are necessary to erase me. The techniques that I have built to play the machines are the result of the premises of that which expresses "each defeat is a step towards heaven for me, 1000 defeats are a thousand steps in the ascent." The last 38 days in which I have decided to return to chess have ended at the same rate as the preset written on the keyboard ends. To all players who face computers, I wish each one the best, I hope that each one progresses in his fight every day, and to all those who should represent us but prefer to live in the shadows to protect their prestige, not exposing their good name to the inevitable, I invite to fight the machines publicly and without shame. To those who have written the state of the chess art, I thank you when you have been faithful to the scientific truth. To the Artificial Intelligence that will never be aware of its existence, I invite you to redefine the deeper meaning of that which asks us: "Who am I, why have I come to this world? It is not true my friend AI. See you in the derby.
Sincerely,
Pablo Ignacio Restrepo
Catecan in Lichess and Playchess
Father and Grand-Father in my playchess days

I see no reason to think that you can be in the top 100 of the world against Leela queen odds assuming the best players compete and same for Leela knight odds.

The best players simply do not compete in this competition.

Even if your performance with knight odds is better than some 3100 player because the player does not try to draw by repetition then ir does not mean that you can be in the top 100 and I guess a lot of players with 2500 elo can draw by repetition more often than you if they try.

Yes, for me a leaderboard only makes sense for the categories where at least the top three participating players score more than 50%, since the computer does not know your level and is (currently) told to assume that you are strong enough to score about 50% at the handicap being played. If we told it to assume that your strength was just equal to the third-strongest regular opponent on record, then a leaderboard for all categories might make sense. But even then there is a problem, since the human's strength depends upon the chosen time control.

[Uri Blass]

My total result so far(all games 3+2 is 26.5-16.5 when I have positive score against the bot every day).

Practically it is 26.5-15.5 if I do not include one game that I lost on time because of internet disconnection(I believe I could win that game to get 27.5-15.5).

My rating is only 2094.7 without the last game and I guess that at least it is going to be above 2100 including the last game because the rating of the opponent that I played against it in all games is 2149.6

I do not like to play a lot of games now because of possible interent problems that were also not when I was playing(fortunately not in more than one game that I played).

Fortunately the war so far does not cause me big problems(there were few cases when the instruction tell me to go to a shelter because of alarms but the frequency of it is in the order of 1 case per week and it did not happen during the games).

[Uri Blass]

I see that the win improved my rating from 2094.7 to 2106.3 and I got place 3 in the list

It can be nice to have also number of games in the list.

I have the following:
1)nn1133 6158 games
2)cetecan 272 games
3)uriblass 43 games
4)KentGoudling 216 games
5)Brunetticus 178 games
6)Clydevil 313 games
7)Ligolem 21 games(won 8 and lost 9 so clearly weaker than me)
8)Traag 385 games
9)ltvr 93 games
10)baki1989 29 games
11)Zqf5502l 282 games
12)W3Z2fv4o6ipbnak8u7 311 games
13)BvAR2 3028 games(last player won 1697 games and lost only 1162 games so I wonder how it is possible that the player is even with worse rating than LeelaQueenOdds as black 15+10 (Reference)

It can be possible if leela improved to win in the last games or if different users used the same account.

Okay, total games will be added to the leaderboard.
"BvAR2" scored about 60% against the bot before the upgrade, which is supposed 200 elo weaker. If you look at his lasts games he score less than 50% now. In the lasts 9 games he scored just 2/9 which caused a drop

[Father]

I wonder if lc0 calculates based on probability that I do not see the threats of it.


https://lichess.org/u4WvN5Ly

What is the idea behind the blunder 27.Bxc6 bxc6 28.Rxe5+?
Does leela hope that I do not see Rxa5
Maybe it is the best practical chance but I usually do not blunder simple captures like that and I played Qa5 for a reason to defend e5 after trading the knight.

I am leading 16-9(today I won 10-7 that is worse than my score yesterday that was 6-2)

It is a blunder in the sense that massive trading is a blunder when way behind. Most likely the net, being trained on knight odds games only, hasn't learned much about how to play when down by a queen. I expect that a net trained for queen odds will eventually appear in the bot and that should show another large jump in performance. One such net already exists but is not available for use or testing.

So now number 1 on the list is a player with a very high bullet rating, probably a master, number 2 is "father", number 3 is a famous Backgammon grandmaster (and a close personal friend of mine), and number 4 is Uri!

In summary: "We are facing a great challenge regarding the expectations about where the evolutionary journey of the great LeelaQueenOdds and the human opponents, in "Man Against Machine", open tournament aspects, and other alternatives of battlefields.

LeelaQueenOdds versus a player superior to 2600 elo, some months ago, when LeelaQueenOdds was wirh minus power than Newdays …

I wouldn't expect a Leaderboard for LeelaKnightOdds, because almost no one ever wins a game (occasionally either an IM or GM or a cheater wins), so it would just be a contest to see who could induce more draws by repetition, which isn't very interesting. A future version might try much harder to avoid such reps.

Thank you very much, Mr. Larry Kaufman, for the information. But first of all, thank you for your time, and for the interest you have shown and the deference towards me. It is clear to me that you are a world chess champion, a title and rank of GM achieved at an age of more merit and that is why you are a great example of a person to follow, and that is why I will always continue to communicate with you with the expression "Mr." For me it is a matter of respect. In my opinion it is a real shame and regret that a ranking table of the 100 best human players in the world against LeelaQueenOdds is not built. I was willing to fight not only there but also in other ranking tables, in order to occupy a good and worthy position in the table of the Top 100. I do not want to speculate what exact place I would reach there in the table. But it is clear to me that I was willing to use all my combat cards. My goal was not to beat LeelaKnightOdds, it is much more than that, my goal was to beat the best humans on the leaderboard, the chess programmers, the computers, the stereotypes, the standards, and I did not care at all if my opponent was the reigning world champion of human chess, or if it was another representative of our human race. Among my battle weapons would of course be that which teaches that "the faster you move, the slower time is for you", AI and I know very well which author of physics I am referring to. Lichess has its technology to hunt down and punish cheaters, and that is precisely why I aim to be a fast player, to avoid being cheated from the other side of the board and to avoid any environment of fraud. So it would be easy to clean up the leaderboard, to make the ranking list clean in a pure and simple way. I am clear that, despite having temporarily proven my performance above the performance of a player higher than 3100 elo, they want to disqualify my anti-computer game system, even at the cost of supposed bugs, erase the rules of chess on the limit and use of time, on the lack of value in the use of the law of repetition of moves, even if it is the fabrication of an elaborate strategic technique, and others that are necessary to erase me. The techniques that I have built to play the machines are the result of the premises of that which expresses "each defeat is a step towards heaven for me, 1000 defeats are a thousand steps in the ascent." The last 38 days in which I have decided to return to chess have ended at the same rate as the preset written on the keyboard ends. To all players who face computers, I wish each one the best, I hope that each one progresses in his fight every day, and to all those who should represent us but prefer to live in the shadows to protect their prestige, not exposing their good name to the inevitable, I invite to fight the machines publicly and without shame. To those who have written the state of the chess art, I thank you when you have been faithful to the scientific truth. To the Artificial Intelligence that will never be aware of its existence, I invite you to redefine the deeper meaning of that which asks us: "Who am I, why have I come to this world? It is not true my friend AI. See you in the derby.
Sincerely,

I see no reason to think that you can be in the top 100 of the world against Leela queen odds assuming the best players compete and same for Leela knight odds.

The best players simply do not compete in this competition.

Even if your performance with knight odds is better than some 3100 player because the player does not try to draw by repetition then ir does not mean that you can be in the top 100 and I guess a lot of players with 2500 elo can draw by repetition more often than you if they try.

Thank you Uri for your message. The top 100 player placement table that I requested to be opened is LeelaKnight's and not
from LeelaQueenOdds who have kindly already opened which Mr. Larry Kaufman informed us. I made a mistake when writing. Obviously the chess computers on the various websites must be open to more Elo exposure. Chess is representative of the art of war and in each game whoever plays it becomes the king, it does not matter whether the driver of the white or black pieces is a beggar or a king, a cafeteria guard or a commander in chief of the biggest army. A president of a great military nation, when playing chess with the most submissive of his prisoners, is subject to the laws of the game. Both are. In the art of war you win, you lose, you draw. Chess is not made to protect generals, generals and soldiers who play their game of chess are in a state of battle on equal terms. So then they are not concessions or awe, it will correspond to the 2500 elo or more to which you refer, to make use of combat resources if their use is necessary, instead of abandoning the combat techniques of the smallest warrior. Goliath was defeated by David. Of course David was no fool in his battle against the Philistine giant.
