Hyrda?

I feel that if it were not for Rybka, then Hiarcs 11.1 would be 1st above all other engines. Zap!Chess, and Loop would be left to fight over the 2nd place spot.
It would be better if Hiarcs don't miss any official tournament events.
Why do you think it is even second?swami wrote:What's wrong with Hydra,it did defeat Adams and strongest programs out there and I was talking about 2nd placing.
You probably didnt understand my last post. There is nothing wrong with Hydra, we just dont have enough games to assess weather or not it is #1 or # eleventy million in ranking.

Well,Isn't it possible to estimate the ratings from the database of official games of Hydra, playchess included?Just the way FIDE estimate ratings of human players from few games.Tony Thomas wrote:Why do you think it is even second?swami wrote:What's wrong with Hydra,it did defeat Adams and strongest programs out there and I was talking about 2nd placing.
