An IMPORTANT Change of Course!

Post by geots »

I have been up all night, and I have to sleep. Tried a couple of times- but I had 2 teeth pulled yesterday and comfort would not describe the way I still feel. I hope I can keep my eyes open long enough to finish this thread. I truly do have an announcement that anyone following my work should be very interested in.

But sleep really just hit me a few moments ago- and I gotta lie down and
close my eyes. When I come back later today- I will explain it to all who are interested.

I have made a couple of important and abrupt changes in regard to some of my testing. Sleeping, eating and showering after that- I will be back anywhere between 8 and 10 hours.

For those interested in this decision, and who might be awake at that time- please watch for me.



Best- and have a good day,

george

Nothing too mysterious at all, Gab. I tried a private engine sent to me, "Engine 40x" and also an update sent for it. The engines played way stronger than most- but were not what I had hoped for.

After exhausting both versions an author- no middle man- sent me a private version- Rainbow 1.0 beta, along with an update to it- Rainbow Limited- beta 2. It was this 2nd version, Limited- beta 2, that was able to win matches from Strelka 5.1 and Strelka 5.5, along with also winning matches ag. Critter 1.4 and Critter 1.6.

But that is not what I was after. I wanted a long match that would take Houdini 2.0c to hell and back- giving him the fight of his life. I had 2 different 500-game matches running, and I will post the final results now and explain why they were cut short.
