Hello Chess Friends,
On this news page, You can read my postings regarding for: B/E/N I
09.07.2023:1st of all, and once more: the EXP files are played as without opening booksTo be more clear, tour's main target is to see the Engine Learning influence...!As I stated before, Book opening theory is much more experienced than Exp...So nothing strange with the current played results..actually 600 games can beConsidered as good data..but still not enough...e.g according to my other toursEngine learning strength/power is more affective after serious amount games...Not sure exactly..but after 1000 games per player, the situation may different..And as usual: HCan is Number One..that means a lot, public book plus free!On other hand, no BIG surprise that 2nd place is belonging to V by KerverosYes...Kerveros is Kerveros.. he is one of the best talents in our book making!Very interesting..4 books (CachoSCCT, ChessBot, OPTIMUS, Hamish): 3rdBtw, good performance by Brainlearn 25.1, even without Pre Learned Exp..Plus AlexChess (PtoteusSF), Ding-Bat, Anton exp.. performed not bad too!One thing more, for anyone missed, Anton exp is same one played: ResultsA few words about last ranked player (Khalid, Eman), same Exp ver ResultsIn short, it seems even via Eman engine suffers a lot..but not so important...Because these kind of tours are just for FUN...not as World Championship!Ok friends, the tour is paused, but will be resumed probably after 2 months Take care and stay safe...and thanks a lot for your interest... see you later )
09.07.2023:Finely I've managed to start one of my most exciting competitions!And here are current rankings (after 1209 games), yes.. the tour isJust in the beginning..anyhow it's clear that mostly opening booksHave good start... on other hand, Ruleeeee's exp and Anton's expAre performing not so bad so far note also that each participant willContain min 600 games..so in next rounds everything may happen!After all time will tell..but I admit that HCanFree is very dangerous!!Sure as same words are going for many other Top players as well...Btw, NoBook, SF-PB means SF-PB 060623 is playing without Book,Where NoPreExp means Engines are without Pre-Learned Exp filesMore details very soon and once more many thanks to all authors...And no doubt that without you, this tour would not exist! and pleaseDon't take too seriously the played results..just fun tour, simply enjoy!
08.07.20231st of all, against any confusions:Exp/eng players such as 'Eman.exp' will be re-named:Cubail, Eman (that means Cubail's exp via Eman 8.91)
And if I'm going to give more examples:Khalid, Eman or AlexChess, RaptoRa etc.
In other words,1st Publisher's exp name, 2nd Engine
About Book/Engine player names, Just one example: CachoSCCT
Meanwhile,Here are the Experience file entries so far:
Engine Experience Modified PublisherEman 8.91 Africaata 07.07.2023 Jorge CentellesEman 8.91 Eman 25.06.2023 Cubail/CevdetEman 8.91 Eman 03.05.2023 RulleeeeeEman 8.91 Eman 02.07.2022 Khalid OmarLittleBeast 2 Hurnavich 08.07.2023 Ian HurnavichRaptoRa 2.2 Raptora 22.06.2023 Ding-Bat RaptoRa 2.2 Raptora 01.03.2023 Anton CesRaptoRa 2.2 ProteusSF 28.07.2022 AlexChess
Note: According to my quick beta testings:ProteusSF.exp is suitable via RaptoRa 2.2!But unfortunately not via rest tested engines,Including BrainLearn 25.1 + LittleBeast 2 too!
And here are the planing Top opening books, Which will be played by SF-PB 060623 engine:
Opening Book Modified Book AuthorCachoSCCT 19.04.2023 Angel Morano ChessBot 170623 17.06.2023 Cubail/CevdetHamish 4.1 20.04.2023 Ian Hurnavich HCanFree Upd 26.05.2023 Hamdullah CanLeschats 140623 14.06.2023 Jorge CentellesOPTIMUS 3.1 22.05.2023 R.ConstantinescoSkynetSCCT 10.1 21.04.2023 SkyNet/AlexV 12.05.2023 Kerveros
Note: Newer book versions are not allowed, otherwiseNo chances to compare with previous played results!
Ok..that's all for now but this is also true thatA new tour idea... and many details for sure!Anyhow as before, I will do my best!
07.07.2023I'm very pleased to announce thatI plan to organize a new exp tournament, whereMostly engines will be played as without books!Sure, later...I'll test some Top books by SF-PB!
To be more clear,I hope to test mainly the engines, which are Capable to learn (I mean during game-play)
Be aware of that too,Some engines will be played via pre-learnedExperience files, sure where available...
Note also that,Some will be played without pre - learned exp files too!And in this way, we'll see the influences:with and without!
Plus as another alternative (via SF-PB 060623 engine),I hope to test some Top books too! in this way, whereWe'll have chances to see opening book's power too!SF-PB is slightly weaker, but let's say as bonus to exp..The reason, Exp is much younger than Book's theory !)
And here are the planning NNUE engines, which Are capable to learn...(exception SF-PB 060623):
BrainLearn 25.1Eman 8.91LittleBeast 2RapTora 2.2SF-PB 060623
In case of interest to submit a Exp..Please just let me know: ContactThank you in advance
Meanwhile So far, 5 (five) exp files are entered..3 Eman.exp / 2 RapTora. exp
Sure will be great if someone will submit exp filesFor BrainLearn and LittleBeast engines, otherwiseBoth will be played as without pre - learned exp...
And please stay tuned, very soon more details!
Best,Sedat
