• Anyone interested can not submit a commercial or free book
• Note that only publicly (available) opening books are played...
• I tested only thıose publicly books, which are already released
Due to Rules: Private books not allowed in XXX championship!
Otherwise, it's not much fair testing: 'Private' vs 'Available' book
For more information (about this issue), please check MZ Forum

In the previous book tours, I used the games of CCRL 40/40
Also, CEGT book is based on high-rated engine games of 40/4
The rest books e.g FGRL, SSDF, TCEC created in same way...

In short, that means Top 5 book players are just resumed to play...
Exception, Top 5 players had choice to update 2 times in 30 days
• The ongoing competition was planning to be active for many months
• I hope to test a lot of opening books, from the past to the present!
• Rather than tour...will be a rating (with min 300 games per player)
And for each book player is installed a separate copy of CFish engine
Tournament Details
• All books are played by same chess engine: CFish 190619 MP BMI2
More Details
• I hope the XXX book rating is a good indicator of determining
The strongest publicly books! and as I said before, the Online engine
Games (on Playchess, Infinitychess etc) are good as well, but oftenly
Hardware speed differences are playing a BIG role, where many suffer...
Under SCCT conditions: 'all is equal', exception the opening books !)
And I wish to say,
Thanks a lot for your interest...
Kind Regards,
Sedat Canbaz
• The ranking calculated by Ordo / Perfect2019x is fixed to 3550 Elo
• New Entrants are played (min 300 games) mainly vs Top books
• Chessbase (ctg) main book settings: Learning ON, Optimized, 0/100
Exception, other settings can be used by Author's recommendations
Btw, please take a screenshot (in case of request other than 0/100)
• Polyglot (bin) books are played with best book move as disabled...
E.g, Bin vs Bin (BM ON) usually play 2 exactly same openings
Just imagine, many games (each other) absolutely identical openings
• As graphical chess interfaces used: Fritz 12, Fritz 13, Fritz 14 GUIs
That means, a few separate Fritz GUıs are played (in same time...)
I don't prefer newer Chesbase GUIs such as Fritz 15, Fritz 16 GUIs,
Due to 'Book Learning' does not work in tournament mode: Details
• A new engine strength test is available (by CFish): Results / Games
