On-line engine blitz tourney August

[Henk]

If Giraffe can't win from Skipper you can forget your promotion.

You still have 3 days to work on it .

I won't rest until the speed of Skipper is two times speed of Sungorus. It's tempting to use minmax but that may not be fair. For really superfluous nodes should not be counted.

I'll participate with ISA too (just isa no jars or yoda , my old engines)
These tourneys are really fun , hope one per Week too 😊

[Henk]

If you present the results of the tournament maybe you can also give an indication of the speed of the processors used for each engine. I think about a relative number between 1 and 100000.

Perhaps each participant should supply information about the hardware used.

Damn, I really like these tournaments but very prob can't make Saturday again - as usual a conflict with a beer related event.

Good luck everybody...

The last release of Satana have a bug, it play illegal moves, sometimes. I don't know if I can partecipate until I've corrected this problem. If you see me connected at 21, I'll play.

Ops... it was a flash bug, I have already solved so I'm in tonight!

Satana were playing d5i8 after c2c4... maybe it doesn't like my i7 processor and it wants more!

Same holds for Skipper last change yesterday gave 430 compile errors. And now I have problems with transposition table too.

Just disable TT, I don't have it at all... and simply delete those lines that give compile error

No it is worse some perft tests don't work. And best line was Nf3 followed by Nf3. So it's almost like starting all over again. I start with castling bug. For it even doesn't allow castling anymore. And that's a bug which is easiest to fix.

Changing board and position data structure is not easy. Try before you die.
