Retro Chess - Chessmasters only

[Wilhelm]

In this ongoing tournament only CM's are in. I'll add new settings from time to time.
Actual 3900 games are played. Be aware that the results here can differ to games against other opponents. Many settings have problems when playing against CM itself. But hey, we will have fun

Hi Wilhelm,
my advice is not to use only CM but use one other reference engine. Here are a few suggestions:

Hi Wilhelm,

Hi Werner,
Yes your absolutly right I also run a lot of other games (135.000 at the moment) and you can see the results in my rating list on my new homepage. Link is in my signature.
This CM only tournament is not included in my rating list because I know that this will produce false elo. I mostly run 3 CM's vs 7 others or max 4/6 for this list. But as I wrote, it's just for fun and some users like to run CM vs CM and then you can look how the settings are doing under this conditions.
Most settings and new engines run first a 440 game gauntlet against other opponents and most of them run the 1000 games test against 25 opponents a 40 games. You can see the list on my page. Take a look
