Latest Update: 14.10.2022
Hello Chess Friends,
As usually, I am very pleased to announce that,
I managed to organize another new championship...
1st of all,
A new idea is born: testing Online players opening books!
To be more clear,
I've created derivative books, which are based on FICS,
Infinitychess, Playchess games (played mainly in 2022)
In short, my created books are tuned to prefer theirs played
Openings e.g as main move the wins and as alternative the
Draws are enabled (for playing) too and I have to admit that
Almost all are based mainly on 3700+ NNUE drawn games..
Sure I am referring about Infinitychess + Playchess servers
About FICS server, the played engines games are unknown..
Note also that
As far as possible, I picked minimum 1500 games (per player),
All are in CTG and all of them are small size (minus plus 1 MB)
Online Champion: Ganryu - My Congratulations to Ganryu (Playchess User)!
• Calculated by Bayeselo / Blue Name = FICS / Rest: Playchess, Infinityhess...
More Details
All books are played by same NNUE engine: Raubfish X48c3 SC
The current overall draw percentage (based on 4650 games): 90%
Chessbase (ctg) main book settings: Learning ON, Optimized, 0/40
About 2550 games are played at 2min+1sec, the rest at 3 Minutes

On other hand..We have stronger NN engines, about 25 Elo (in Blitz): ResultsAnyhow I think that for 25 Elo improvement to see 99% draws,Simply will be just waste of time and too boring games for sureAnd due to others high-draw ratio...I prefer Raubfish, becauseThe FUN should be as most important part in our hobby, right?
As Final Note,Very soon I hope to run another tour, which will be based onPublic books (via Cfish 030820 C40) and please stay tuned!
Best,Sedat
