Junior 6.0 immediately took the first place with 2706 after 403 tournament games! This is 77 points more than Junior 5.0 has on the same hardware! It's fascinating that it still is possible to increase the playing strength of chess programs, measured in the way SSDF does. Compared to Chess Tiger 12.0 Junior 6.0 has 24 more points. Part of this difference has been gained due to Chess Tigers tendency to repeatedly lose against Junior 6.0 in the same opening. Hopefully the opening books and the learners will be improved in the future so that these phenomenon disappears. The order of the programs on K6-2 has changed somewhat on this list, thanks to the fact that more games have been played. Chess Tiger 12.0 has lost 14 points, Fritz 5.32 12 points, Nimzo 99 17 points and Hiarcs 7.32 has 12 points less than on the latest list. Junior 5.0 has increased it's rating with 10 points. The average rating gain between P200 MMX and K6-2 450 MHz is now 79 points. This is based on 1537 games with the four programs which have been tested on both hardwares. Next official list will be made in March. Thoralf Karlsson
