Breaking News - 05.07.2023:
The tour resumed, but for short temporary time..and it's paused again!
Well, via this update: a new book entered: Depth4_Deeds and frankly
I expected much better performance because according to Deeds tests:
https://open-chess.org/viewtopic.php?f= ... 8&start=40
His Depth4 exp managed to win many..but it seems under these cond.
Depth4_Deeds book was not so lucky...or simply his used lines will be
Stronger on Deeds's hardware? ? What I can say more over this issue:
SCCT is 'hard'.. not so easy as it looks! but there is nothing impossible!
And who knows? maybe next time Deeds newer lines will be Champ?
But before, I suggest harder work...because 'success' is no accident!

Hello Chess Friends,

I plan to organize a new exp tournament, where
Almost all engines will be played as without books!

In short,
I hope to test mainly the engines, which
Are capable to learn..be aware of that too,
Some engines will be played via pre-learned
Experience files, sure where available...

Note also that,
Some engines will be played without Exp files!
In this way, we'll see the influences as well

Also as another alternative,
I may include some Top books too! in this way,
We'll have chances to see opening book's power too!

About the planning learning engines:
RapTora, LittleBeast, Eman, BrainLearn

Btw, if you have any new experience file,
Please just let me know... I may test it too!

And please stay tuned, soon more details!

Best,
Sedat

Update

So far,
5 (five) exp files are entered:
3 Eman.exp / 2 RapTora. exp

That would be great of course, if someone will submit for the rest:
BrainLearn and for LittleBeast, otherwise both will play with no exp...

Update

1st of all, against any confusions:
Exp/eng players e.g 'Eman.exp' will be re-named to:
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:

Code: Select all

Engine       Experience  Modified    Publisher
Eman 8.91    Africaata   07.07.2023  Jorge Centelles
Eman 8.91    Eman        25.06.2023  Cubail/Cevdet
Eman 8.91    Eman        03.05.2023  Rulleeeee
Eman 8.91    Eman        02.07.2022  Khalid Omar
RaptoRa 2.2  Raptora     22.06.2023  Ding-Bat 
RaptoRa 2.2  Raptora     01.03.2023  Anton Ces
RaptoRa 2.2  ProteusSF   28.07.2022  AlexChess
Some Notes:
Soon a new exp may enter too (by Mr. Hurnavich),
Just in case.. will be played by LittleBeast 2!

Btw, 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:

Code: Select all

Opening Book     Modified    Book Author
CachoSCCT        19.04.2023  Angel Morano     
ChessBot 170623  17.06.2023  Cubail/Cevdet
Hamish 4.1       20.04.2023  Ian Hurnavich  
HCanFree Upd     26.05.2023  Hamdullah Can
Leschats 140623  14.06.2023  Jorge Centelles
OPTIMUS 3.1      22.05.2023  R.Constantinesco
SkynetSCCT 10.1  21.04.2023  SkyNet/Alex
V                12.05.2023  Kerveros
Note: Newer book versions are not allowed, otherwise
No chances to compare with previous played results!

Ok.. that's all for now..but this is also true that
A new tour idea...I mean many details for sure!
Anyhow as before, I will do my best!

I wonder if you are planning to arrange a stockfish-like engine tournament soon...
People who have lost the hope.

Breaking News - 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 is
Just in the beginning..anyhow it's clear that mostly opening books
Have good start... on other hand, Ruleeeee's exp and Anton's exp
Are performing not so bad so far note also that each participant will
Contain 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 files
More details very soon and once more many thanks to all authors...
And no doubt that without you, this tour would not exist! and please
Don't take too seriously the played results..just fun tour, simply enjoy!

Breaking News - 09.07.2023:
1st of all, and once more: the EXP files are played as without opening books
To 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 be
Considered as good data..but still not enough...e.g according to my other tours
Engine 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 Kerveros
Yes...Kerveros is Kerveros.. he is one of the best talents in our book making!
Very interesting..4 books (CachoSCCT, ChessBot, OPTIMUS, Hamish): 3rd
Btw, 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: Results
A few words about last ranked player (Khalid, Eman), same Exp ver Results
In 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 )

The Current Leader: HCanFree Upd - My Congratulations to Hamdullah Can!
