Subject: The Great Nunn-Position Quadrangular Tournament update

Author: George Sobala

Date: 01:06:30 06/29/02


Which is the greatest ENGINE of them all?

(Strip them of their opening books!)

Featuring:

Fritz 7 (7.0.0.8)
Shredder Paderborn
Hiarcs8
CM8000 variant

Hardware: K6/450 64Mb

Time setting: 30/0

The engines will play through all the Nunn1 and Nunn2 positions both as white
and black against all opponents. There are 35 Nunn positions so this will
involve 420 games, 210 by each machine.

I estimate it will take 12 days of computation to complete this match.

Currently finished Nunn2 positions 1,2,3,4,5,6,10,11,12,13,14,15

Current scores (out of 72):

Shredder     39.5
Hiarcs8      37
Fritz7       35
CM8000v      32.5


Individual match scores:

Hiarcs8  v  CM8000v    15   - 9
Hiarcs8  v  Shredder   10.5 - 13.5
Hiarcs8  v  Fritz7     11.5 - 12.5

CM8000v  v  Shredder   10.5 - 13.5
CM8000v  v  Fritz7     13   - 11

Shredder v  Fritz7     12.5 - 11.5
