Go up one level in this thread


I DO not agree. Ruffian is MUCH stronger at longer time controls.  Running
against CT 15 NORMAL I play 10 games at 120/0.  1.533Ghz with ponder off each
running 196Meg of ram using default books.


               1  2  3  4  5  6  7  8  9  10
CT 15 Normal: .5  1  0 .5 .5  0  0 .5 .5  0
Ruffian:      .5  0  1 .5 .5  1  1 .5 .5  1

Result CT15 3.5
Ruffian     6.5

Ruffian is an egine that should be looked into more!
