FCP Tourney-2022 ...

[Frank Quisinsky]

Hi there,

1. It seems that Arasan 23.1 is clearly weaker as Arasan 23.0.1.
I changed back to Arasan 23.0.1 NN AVX2 x64 (AVX2 compile on both Intel systems too = faster).

2. Better ist to play with the offical Winter 0.9 BMI2 x64.
After a quick test on my other chess systems it seems that Winter 0.9 BMI2 is stronger.
I changed from Winter 0.9.5 BMI2 x64 to Winter 0.9 BMI2 x64.

3. The programmer of rofChade sent me a new beta version (small fix).
I changed from rofChade 2.309 NN x64 to rofChade 2.310 NN x64.

At the moment games from this three engines will be replayed.
Configuration site updated!

Hey Frank,

7.5 is about 35 Elo stronger in self-play STC and probably about 15 Elo or so in LTC (i dont remember the exact numbers). There should be a significant difference although not too large. Up to you

Hi Finn,

OK, I will switch to 7.5 in the late afternoon.
Games from 7.0 will be replayed.



Thanks for the info and good luck for the tourney.

Hi there,

until Wasp 5.0 / Fritz 18 are available more engine updates are possible for FCP Tourney-2022.

Maybe the programmers of Stash, Marvin, Halogen, Weiss others of participate programs have interest to see a newer version in my tourney?!

If so, please give me a short information!
