Testing LazySMP

4)I do not see how the stockfish community members relevant...

Initial messages deleted. see this message viewtopic.php?p=969466#p969466

1 hour after I created the topic, two members of Stockfish (lucametehau and noobpwnftw) started insulting and hating.

2 hour after I created the topic, lucametehau continued his disrespect and my topic was locked for 2 day....

Does this have anything to do with the Stockfish community?

Thank you for your support, Is it possible to upload my engine releases on your website? LazySMP 3.0 and LazySMP 5.0

Man, three versions are tested by me (at TC=4'+2") with opponents of the same class. Why don't you have patience? A tournament lasts. From time to time I will post intermediate results in the matches and tournaments section. You have no patience. That's the problem. Your engine is OK.



Opponents have the ratings (CCRL Blitz) below:

For the second time, you did not even mention and reply to my message. This is the short test with the last version. Results are similar to previous versions. Engine is around 2000-2100 CCRL.

Sorry, I decided to leave chess programming forever. The behavior of CCRL members was so disappointing that I see no point to continue. They did not test my engine for no reason and it's not their fault, it's the Stockfish community members who made them pessimistic and destroyed my discussion:

I regret to say that your constant obsession with the CCRL discourages others from trying your engine. Due to the illogical nature of this conversation, I must close it again.

Sorry no; on another hand if the Google Drive you used so far is not convenient enough, you may create a free MediaFire account, where you can enable or disable sharing as you wish. It is actually what I myself use for sharing somewhat larger files.

By the way, v5 looks to have an issue if winning and the opponent doesn't resign and ponder is on: from my experience, starting from mate in 3 stage (+124 score), it may fail to play any longer.
Here is a shorten sample couple of Arena log files, one ponder off, one ponder on. In the ponder on case, LazySMP is declared forfeit on time by the GUI, whilst when instructed to move (flagged by the GUI) it achieves the final mate move, that was obviously pending.

Dear Gabor, Dear Graham, Dear Basti,

As I’m sure you know, you will find testing in CCRL very different from testing in private GUI. For example, you cannot begin testing engines on day one as you did at PC. Engines that do not use a Transposition Table tend to be very fast and this is not a good reason not to test it.

In any event, TT is not necessarily an engine to greater efficiency. I humbly request you to tell me your reasons for not testing my engine. It is a widely believed myth that you accepted the words of the Stockfish community and that's why you don't want to test my engine.

In an age of artificial intelligence, weaker engines are desperately needed to fill the ranks. Complying with complex testing rules makes it slow and difficult to test an engine, and there is little social prestige to saying you work for the chess community.

Under these conditions, you cannot find your way to excellence. I hope you will realize soon, then you find why some people get frustrated.

Yours Sincerely,

Daniel Pierce

Due to this, I currently don't give attention to weaker engines. Andreas is helping me to reduce this list.
As an aside, our lists are full of weaker engines anyway.

I can't speak for the Blitz testers though, but they've probably given you reasons as well.

When your engine is strong enough to include in my Amateur Series, I'll add it to the list. That is where the 2400 I mentioned came from.
Let's forget about hash size, although I can assure you that when all other engines in my tournaments are using 256mb, yours is likely to struggle.

The other concern I have is that you're using an obviously fake name.

Thank you for your response to my letter.

I can't speak for the Blitz testers though, but they've probably given you reasons as well.

No, they didn't give me any reason. About 2 months ago, Mr. Gabor said he would test my engine if I fix its bugs.

I did not refuse to test your engine. Only, just because you release an engine you cannot expect it will be tested immediately. But now, based on your conversation with Alex, I am certainly postponing the test until your engine can make legal moves.

A few days ago, Rebel confirmed that my engine bugs were fixed.

I can mention progress, no more crashes and time forfeits with version 5

Code: Select all

  2 Drofa_1.0   +272 =179 -549   *0  361.5  1000   36.1% CCRL ELO 1988

So, according to Mr. Gabor he was supposed to test my engine but what happened he didn't?!

Let's forget about hash size, although I can assure you that when all other engines in my tournaments are using 256mb, yours is likely to struggle.

Even all other engines in the tournament are using Transposition Table, I prefer don't use it.

The other concern I have is that you're using an obviously fake name.

To be honest, I'm not the main author of this engine. This engine was developed by one of my friends at my request. He asked me not to mention his name. Anyway, I hope the author's name is not an excuse for not testing engine.
