Adding my engine to the CCRL rating list?

Post by algerbrex »

Hi,

I'm interested in getting my engine Blunder added to the CCRL rating list. I'm not sure if this is the right place to post this, so I'm making an account on the CCRL forum itself just in case. But I figured I might try asking here first, since I recognize some faces from the CCRL team active here.

From self-play and some testing with other engines I estimate that Blunder's rating is between ~1800 to ~1700 Elo. It doesn't have any configurable options (no transposition table, opening book, et al. right now) and can play in rapid and/or blitz time controls. A Windows executable for the latest version, 4.0.0, can be found in the zip file here: https://github.com/algerbrex/blunder/re ... tag/v4.0.0.

Thanks!

Congrats on your release!

You can announce it here: http://talkchess.com/forum3/viewtopic.php?f=2&t=76209 (somehow will hopefully pick it up)

BTW, you can also register your engine to compete in ZaTour (link in my signature)
