UPDATE

Well, today let me start with this great saying please:
Don't just be part of the herd

By the way, without to not mention this I can not as well, e.g:
If we were to say that a large social group consists of people,
Who don't have their own thoughts, who constantly need guidance,
Who try to adopt what is accepted..instead of better original ideas,
And I think here only a few people would object all over...right ?)

On other hand, other good notes, which perfectly suits:
In 2008, Prof. Jens Krause of the University of Leeds,
Conducted an experiment into human herd mentality and
How people, quite literally, follow the crowd..source:
https://www.progressbb.co.uk/dont-just- ... f-the-herd

Groups of people were asked to walk randomly around a hall.
They were not allowed to communicate with one another but
Had to stay within arm’s length of another person at all times.
Among the groups, a few individuals were given more specific
Instructions on where to walk. The researchers found that,
Very quickly, people started to follow the select few who
Appeared to know where they were going.
The researchers found that it only took 5% of confident
Looking people to influence the direction of the other 95%.

In other words, it's all right that when to be in nature,
Most of animals show a herd mentality for safety reasons!

But what about Humans, Chess? NNUE testings etc.
How many of us are trying something new, better?
If it's 'green' net: 27944 downloads.. hehe ))
If not..for example: nn-86aaa607b31b, just: 497

Again I ask to all people here, what does it mean?
Actually go this way...if not 'SC' would not win !
Go + test the engines only with weak lines too..!!
Then just don't come and say again latest SF dev.
Is best..cause not 'true'.. at least in SCCT..!!
Even if future tours.. SF will be Champ..will be great..
But still will be not enough..cause what about draws?
What about rest SF's options: CTG, BIN, EXP etc. ?
For these reasons. we've have think more 'deeply'
When we are going to talk..or testing any file etc.!

And final words (once more, for anyone missed):
One day, the Dog says to a Wolf:
If you were loved, they'd take you into their homes and love you.
The Wolf replies:
If we were curious about every lap, we'd be on streets like you,
Moreover, you can't find us but we can find you in every street.

Ok friends..thanks for reading.. and please stay tuned,
Very soon new / more strength NN results are coming!

Best,
Sedat

Hello Friends,

Well, after so many attempts..even I will have difficulties to count..
But believe Me..I played many 3800 Elo testings...and as conclusion:
I could not find a Top engine 3800+ where to produce low draw-ratio..
The goal was minus plus 90-92 % but .. no such numbers are recorded
Sure I refer in case testing the current mentioned Top opening books...

But anyhow, I have good news,
I realized to try with other Top 3750 Elo engine: Raubfish GTZ SC

And why Raubfish GTZ SC?
Because is still super strong, capable to use BIN books!
Another as one of most important parts: one of least Drawish NN engines!
Sure this is not all, stable as stone..besides Raubfish's produced points
Are closest to overall ranks of latest recent organized Book NN CS XXXVI
https://sites.google.com/site/computers ... k-nn-cs-36
What we can need more ? almost perfect, right?..exc.Raubfish is not capable
To use CTG books...but SF-SCCT (by Tanick Ramz) can be as solution here...

A new Unofficial Ranking by Raubfisch GTZ SC:

UPDATE

1st. Test: Raubfisch GTZ - Itself Matches:

Code: Select all

1   Raubfisch (Copy)  +87/-86/=839 50.05%  506.5/1012
2   Raubfisch GTZ SC  +86/-87/=839 49.95%  505.5/1012

Note: Two copy of GTZ eng vers. are used...where the
Draw-Ratio is again 83%, not so high numbers for sure!

----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

2nd.Test (in case of CTG book entries):
SF-SCCT 250122 vs Raubfisch GTZ SC: identical in strength !!
Sure I've expected to appear close points, but not so much )
And frankly I can not remember to appear identical points..
Even if running as same Eng copies !!

In other words,
That shows not only engines strength, plus hardware stability,
And this is not all, the played/used openings etc. as well !!

Code: Select all

1   Raubfisch GTZ SC    +145/-145/=1710 50.00%  1000.0/2000 
2   SF-SCCT 250122 def  +145/-145/=1710 50.00%  1000.0/2000 

Draw-Ratio is 86% slightly higher.. but not too bad!

GAMES:
https://mega.nz/file/69gSUSoY#5_1mUDBbY ... iKcr01-s6c

Conditions used: sure adapted to planning New CS XXXVII...
As main difference, Balsa + Unique openings are played...

Breaking News (15.10.2024):
XXXVII CS already started... and here are the latest results (after 9920 games)
Via this update many trend books entered where mostly of them are quite new..
E.g all of them created in 2024 that means they represent latest strong theory!
What I can add more: 620 games is good data but not enough so let's see what
Will be next ranks, but there is one true, Messi is Messi!! as we see again many
His books are on Top..sure Tunafish, Skynet..are ones which are dangerous too!!
Be aware that too please, in the next days..newer DON book vers may entered..
You may know, Mr. Vasid Chouhan is another Top book master, who never play
For 2nd place..In other words, a lot of fun is waiting us..Ok friends, now I'm busy..
So more info in next updates..good luck to all authors..and let's best book wins!
Btw, for moment. CTG are NOT accepted as reason even the defeats are played

Current Book Leader: AdrianOliva v3 - My Congratulations to Angel Morano!

UPDATE

Another idea is born, e.g
There will be Eng NN Entrants as without books!

In short,
I hope to include also those engines which are close: 3750 Elo,
But they will be played as without using any opening book and
In this way, XXXVII CS will contain more unique playing styles!
And in same time, we'll have chance, which NN file is stronger,
Sure I refer as without books! you know, influences may appear..

And here are the mentioned NN engines as without using any book:
Btw, Obsidian 13.25 will be out as reason, stronger than 3750 Elo!
Sure not only via current small tour..plus based on other tests etc.
But the good news is that, the rest Top 4 (four) players will be in...
Not sure to include Komodo Dragon 3.3 or not.. because at Bullet
Komodo Dragon is weaker (than Raubfish) minus plus 5-10 Elo

200 of 200 games finished.

Be aware too,
Soon as possible, a BIG update is coming and any player will include
1000+ games that means also there will be Champion titles as well!

Breaking News (16.10.2024):
Ladies and Gentlemen, it's my pleasure to announce the 1st XXXVII's Champions:
DON and Tunafish...2nd rank belongs to MegaTron RevA (by Tanick Ramz again)
And for right now, Hazel (as Tunafish) is 3rd rank.. so good achievement as well
Hey dear Vasid, OrgZ, Nate: this is too much! And is this all as luck or surprise ?
Not of course !! They gave their signals from previous days... such as I'll destroy
Everything on field...and frankly I'm happy...besides Tunafish is public, moreover
It's free! In other words, that means a lot..about DON author (for anyone missed):
I call him as Father and after checking all his great records (from past to present)
Mr. Vasid fully deserves its name! sure my respect to all rest book authors as well
No doubt they're very talented too! You know no one can be always Number One!
It's simply impossible..actually possible, but required non-stop efforts, is it worth?
Not of course..because our 'Chess' should not be all in our life! as other important
Influence is Health, yes, during testings, tuning, working..over books, our health is
in Danger.that's why please..take care and pay more attention all over! Meanwhile,
The tour is still not ended..in next days, more entries are expecting to be entered..

Private Book Champion: DON 151024 - My Congratulations to Vasid Chouhan!

Breaking News (17.10.2024):
Well, via this update 8 books entered..where some of them performed very good!
E.g AbbyStein (by Tanick Ramz), Rubix (by Ian Hurnavich) actually even Pyramid
(by Angel Morano) as old dated is ranked not bad, and I admit too No Book NN is
Performed much better than many and why? In my opinion, their Evalfiles seems
So strong (sure here I refer even as without books) that rarely makes mistakes...!
Once more (for anyone missed), this is the same version, which is played in Giant
E.g tuned to prefer No Books openings (minimum 3700+ Elo.) On other hand, as
We see Messi's other powerful weapon (Esculapio) again on scene in short, great!
What does it mean? Simply means he fully deserves Messi name too..!! Not once,
Not twice. many many times...Btw, after checking closely... Esculapio has 1 point
Better (than Tunafish 3.2) that's why Esculapio is titled as latest Public Champion..
Meanwhile, current competition paused..but it's planing to be resumed after week..
Sure after resuming ..new/updated books will be acceptable..so please stay tuned!
And then let's see which books will be the next Champs..see you later my friends)

Private Book Champion: DON 151024 - My Congratulations to Vasid Chouhan!
