Calibration of the bottom programs is very problematic. Most of them are completely deterministic, and so playing a set of ten games only produces two distinct games. For instance, I ran 10 Raffaela games yesterday against TSCP and none of them were different than the ones already stored. Since I filter for duplicates, the net effect of those ten games was zero! In the actual contest, if you lose the same way four times in a row, you still lost the games. Just call me "no mercy" corbit. It might seem like a good thing to squeak into the next higher bracket above you. However, if you keep in mind that the overall loser from each bracket gets demoted and the overall winner from each bracket gets promoted, it might be better for a "crowns" rating to stay put in a lower bracket. On the other hand, TSCP is markedly improved with the new and simple timing changes. Yace and Bringer are both much stronger with recent changes and I predict that none of these three mentioned programs will finish last in their bracket, despite their lowly starting positions. I think also that ArasanX will probably win its bracket as well, but the new GnuChess might give it a run for its money (there is a completely new bitboard version of GnuChess5).
