Breaking News (19.09.2022): Here is another new NNUE Bullet (30 sec + 0.6 sec) competition! Main target: testing:3700+ Elo engines via theirs default Evalfiles Several engines out, due to crashes under CuteChess 5.11.1GUI E.g DarkSister 1.8, Eman 8.20, VendettaCherry (StockfishMZ) etc. It seems there is a something wrong with Eman's experience code... Meanwhile I realized to test also SF as NNUE OFF, 230+ just great! Plus many more engines tested..e.g Raunfish SC, Stockfish 15 too In this way it's much more clear about which engines are improved... What I can say more, the latest Stockfish dev is the strongest one! SF Polyglot, Nebula, Kayra, Swordfish... are super strong as well! Not sure, maybe I'll organize a new Blitz (as MP+Ponder ON) tour, Just in case I hope to test only Top 8 (eight) of current participants Btw, (for anyone missed) another recent tours Results / Results 2 NNUE CS XVII Winner: Stockfish - My Congratulations to SF Team!
