Hi
,Nunn G is finished.
Conditions:
Athlon 2600+, some with Athlon 3000+ (speed difference 12%)
64 MB Hash
5 men EGTB
all twenty Nunn2 positions
Time control: 4 min. + 2 sec.
1 Ufim 5.00 483.5 / 720 
2 IceSpell 0_022  439.5 / 720 
3 Snitch 0.3.66 408.0 / 720 
4 Cerebro 1.25 b  407.0 / 720 
5 Spike 0.3c  398.0 / 720 
6 Snitch 0.3.57 393.5 / 720 
7 Trace 1.29  385.0 / 720 
8 Chispa v4.052 385.0 / 720 
9 DanChess 1.0.4d 382.5 / 720 
10 Queen 2.44 380.5 / 720 
11 Djinn 0.870  373.5 / 720 
12 Rybka 1.6.0.1x 360.5 / 720 
13 Doctor? 3.0  346.0 / 720 
14 EXchess 4.03 314.5 / 720 
15 Lord King 4  283.5 / 720 
16 InmiChess3.06N 282.5 / 720 
17 Madeleine 0.2  282.5 / 720 
18 Alarm 0.93.1 269.5 / 720 
19 Eeyore 1.39  265.0 / 720 
Regrettably a lot of those like Rybka and IceSpell are still not publically available.
So Ufim again won with an overwhelming score. The rating list that I will upload late this evening (after including the first 500 games from a 1000 games
gauntlet with Jonny 2.64 against amateur engines from Nunn Elite 2 and Top 3) shows an improvement by almost 100 points for Ufim at least in Blitz over version 4.04. Some others also improved a lot, especially Cerebro, Snitch, Trace, Chispa, Djinn and DanChess ( I know there is already a much stronger DanChess version out, but I am not that fast
)--whereas Queen seems to be stuck somehow and I got practically no improvement for Eeyore over version 1.36. Although Alarm finished only on rank 18, the improvement must even be more than 100 points over release 0.92.4, although I only tested that one without Nunn positions.Ufim is now playing in a much stronger group, where also Spike shows with a new version that there are already new advances. Somehow I forgot to announce this tournament Top 3 where already six positions are played. So here are the participants:
Thinker 4.6c
Green Light Chess 3.0.3.4
El Chinito 3.25
Movei 00.8.147 s (a faster Dann Corbit compile)
The Baron 1.3.1b6
Frenzee 159
Arasan 7.4
Ufim 5.00 (new version came too late for this one)
Booot 4.03
Spike 0.5
Bringer 1.9
Cerebro 1.26g
Capture R01
Horizon 4.1b12
Beowulf 2.3b5
Wchess 1.6
The group is a bit constructed. That is because Thinker and Green Light Chess were released too late for the Elite 2 tournament and I wanted to have them in somewhere for the beginning. They will get stronger opponents later and are playing in the Jonny gauntlet. Main competition for them here comes from the little Chinese.
For those who visit my homepage, it is worth to have an eye also on Nunn Elite 2. Spectacularly performing versions from Gothmog and WildCat, but also Crafty and Delfi improved. For those downloading the games please have a look at all those tactical blows from Gothmog. Even the strongest sometimes fall to its ferocious attacks.
Concerning Nunn Elite 2 and Top 3. Those will be considerably slowed down, as soon as we start the grand amateur event with more time. Of course I give priority to this common project.
Was I finally able to post something shorter, without constantly superficially writing their instead of there and than instead of then?
Best Regards
Heinz
