The latest Twisted Logic 20080530 beta test results!

[Edsel Apostol]

Twisted Logic is getting stronger since the past couple of months, though I'm sad that I didn't have time now to develop it further as I have a new job and I relocated. The plan for an SMP version has stalled also.

By the way, here are some of the latest test results:

Note:
none = default
#1 King Attacks Aggression Level = 12
#2 King Attacks Aggression Level = 16
#3 King Attacks Aggression Level = 20

What do you think is the strongest setting? #1 has a higher score than #2 but #2 performs better against Rybka. What value for King Attacks Aggression Level do you think would get the highest score? My guess it is between 12 and 16. I need to test further.

If anyone is interested to tune other Twisted Logic parameters and join the Twisted Logic Beta testers gruop, just let me know. This engine has a big potential.

By the way, big thanks goes to Audy Arandela for these test results!

Hi Edsel,

Congrats! Scoring better than Spike and ktulu is indeed a great progress.
This version is currently running in tourney in progress.

MP version is very much needed, normal engines gain 100-150 elo when it use 4 processors. If you have time you could work on it, I understand that with job, working on an engine is going to be hectic, but still.

I will be using whatever the latest stronger version is, at World rapid champs, Audy mailed me and we talked about opening book details.

Regards.
