Hi,
I see that Nejmet is doing quite ok in your tests. Do you have the time mgmt problem with Nejmet 3.07, that is that Nejmet is using roughly only half the time it coulde/should be using?
In my tests Nejmet is behind Leila, Tcb, Amy etc., I assume primarily due to this problem.
Thanks
Robert

Hello Robert,
all okay with Nejmet, no problems at all. Performance is what I expected from previous tests, strength is about the same than Nejmet 3.06. In tournament C Patzer, Betsy, Amy and Nejmet are very close what also usually happened in former longer tournaments.
Seems that AnMon 5.30 will win the Nunn C tournament by some margin. Still 7 positions to play, but I have the feeling that AnMon will remain in top position. But certainly interesting to see how big the difference will be after all positions.
Best Regards
Heinz

Hi,
here Nejmet 3.07 uses only roughly half of its time, so when it could use 6 seconds for a specific move, it just uses 3 or so. In the end it has still 2 to 3 minutes on the clock (close to half of its time budget). This inevitably has a bearing on its performance, and in fact it is quite low down in my rating list. I posted this issue some time ago and got the response that this were a known problem in Blitz (even though this does not lead to any failures, it just means that Nejmet does not perform that well). So it would be remarkable, if you did not have this problem in your setup, which is also Blitz. Apparently this problem does not manifest itself at longer time controls: Nejmet is doing very well in Leo's tournaments.

Hi Robert,
I am using Fischer clock 4m+2s. Nejmet has a decent time control here using 5 seconds per move and more in the end, if time is left. I think this time control is even better than using up all time until move 40 and after that only the increment. Anyway Nejmet does not play too fast here.
Best Regards

In fact I use also Fischer clock (5m + 2sec), yet, I do have this problem consistently and always. Strange ...

Hello Robert,
I do not know always exactly under what conditions and GUI´s games are played on other sides, but there are also good ratings for Nejmet.
See for example here.
