Re: If you are interested....
Well, this is the final structure of my WINBOARD-34 OLD tournament. All are pure WB1 or WB2 engines. Not even a single engine is UCI or WB&UCI (if I remember correctly, only Leila had a UCI version-v0.42-but very buggy). All of them are over 10 years old (many over 20) with the exception of Caligula 1.1 (but which has a very long history and in addition has never been tested by the CCRL).

You might find that many of the older engines can't use time controls with increments.

I know. All engines in the first league (WINBOARD-48 OLD) support TCs with increment. As well as the six engines from the 2nd league. Tested. I wanted to test all Polish WB engines (2 do not support a tournament - Akiba and iiChess), some are collaborations between authors from different countries, others are based on engines from other countries (Rodent-Sungorus), some are variations on the same theme (nano-piko-pikoEE2 Szachy). I also have three WB engines written in Java (ArabianKnight-Belzebub-JChess) already tested in my Java leagues. The rest are almost all here (15+6). I think only 3-4 private engines have been omitted. I have one. A real school of WB engines.Graham Banks wrote: ↑Tue Feb 04, 2025 10:33 pm You might find that many of the older engines can't use time controls with increments.

I like to see the weak programs that I can beat, also the oldies.

So do I. I have a huge collection. Almost everything that appeared in the last 30 years. Sometimes I like to follow long forgotten engines. Some that tried original architectures and techniques. An example is Gosu. Otherwise, many of the old Polish WB engines are the result of master's degree theses.
