<font color="0000FF">ENGLISH</font> <p>Comparison between CM_9000 default and CM_9000 X (a personality created by Kurt Utzinger) After having tested both versions we can say almost for sure that the CM9_X-setting is considerable stronger. This special CM9K-personality only lost one match vs Gambit Tiger 2.0 aggressive, which in our opinion is the strongest Tiger version. With the default settings we played 343 games 40'/40 and higher with a total score of 52 %. With the CM9K-X settings there were 390 games (13 matches of 30 games at 40'/40) played with a score of 62 %. It should however also be mentioned that we have not tested - and will not test - this strong setting in blitz games.</p> <font color="0000FF">GERMAN</font> Dies stellt ein Vergleich dar zwischen CM_9000 Original-Einstellungen und CM_9000 X, einer Persönlichkeit von Kurt Utzinger. Nach ausgiebigen Tests mit vielen Partien wagen wir mit grosser Sicherheit zu behaupten, dass das CM_9000 X Setting bedeutend stärker einzustufen ist als die originale CM_9000. Mit dem speziellen Setting resultiert nach 390 Partien 40'/40 eine Gewinnquote von 62 %, wobei nur das Match gegen Gambit Tiger 2 aggressiv (u.E. die stärkste Tiger-Version überhaupt) knapp verloren ging. In der Original-Einstellung wurden 343 Partien gespielt mit einem Gesamtscore von immerhin noch 52 %, lässt man aber hier die Amateure weg, so ergibt sich ein klares Minus mit 47 % (223 games/104.5-118.5). <font color="0000FF"> playing conditions: engine-engine-matches GUI: Fritz7-/Hiarcs8 ponder=off 4-men TB's book=remis.ctg (no book learning) time control = 40'/40+40'/40+40' (or higher, see below) hardware/hashtables: see below</font> <font color="FF0000">First of all the results of CM9K-default</font> <pre> <b>TheKing 3.23 Program Games TheKing Opp Score Time Hardware/HT</b> TheKing 3.23 Aristarch 4.4 30 20.5 9.5 68% 40'/40 P3 650/32 TheKing 3.23 Chess Tiger 14 30 12.5 17.5 42% 40'/40 Dur 1.3/64 TheKing 3.23 Crafty 18.15 30 19 11 63% 40'/40 Dur 1.3/64 TheKing 3.23 Fritz 7008 30 9 21 30% 40'/40 P3 800/32 TheKing 3.23 GambitTiger2 ag 30 13.5 16.5 45% 40'/40 Ath 1.3/64 TheKing 3.23 Hiarcs 8 30 20.5 9.5 68% 40'/40 Ath 1.3/64 TheKing 3.23 Junior 7 30 14.5 15.5 48% 40'/40 Ath 1.3/64 TheKing 3.23 Nimzo 7.32 30 15.5 14.5 52% 40'/40 Ath 1.3/64 TheKing 3.23 Ruffian 1.0.0 30 16.5 13.5 55% 40'/40 P3 800/32 TheKing 3.23 Shredder 6.02 13 5.5 7.5 42% 120'/60 Ath 1.3/64 TheKing 3.23 Shredder 6.02 30 13.5 16.5 45% 40'/40 Ath 1.3/64 TheKing 3.23 Yace 0.99.56 30 18.5 11.5 62% 40'/40 P3 650/32 <font color="0000FF">TheKing 3.23 Total 343 179 164 52% Various Various</font> </pre> <font color="FF0000">And now the results of CM9_X:</font> <p><pre> <b> CM9 X Program Games CM9 X Opp Score Time Hardware/HT</b> CM9 X Aristarch 4.4 30 21.5 8.5 72% 40'/40 P3 650/32 CM9 X Chess Tiger 14 30 18 12 60% 40'/40 Ath 1.3/64 CM9 X Crafty 18.15 30 21.5 8.5 72% 40'/40 Dur 1.3/64 CM9 X Fritz 7.0.0.8 30 16.5 13.5 55% 40'/40 Ath 1.3/64 CM9 X GambitTiger2 ag 30 13 17 43% 40'/40 Ath 1.3/64 CM9 X Hiarcs 7.32 30 17 13 57% 40'/40 P3 650/32 CM9 X Hiarcs 8 30 16.5 13.5 55% 40'/40 P3 800/32 CM9 X Junior 7 30 16.5 13.5 55% 40'/40 Dur 1.3/64 CM9 X List 4.61 30 20.5 9.5 68% 40'/40 Ath 1.3/64 CM9 X Nimzo 7.32 30 20.5 9.5 68% 40'/40 Ath 1.3/64 CM9 X Ruffian 1.0.1 30 19.5 10.5 65% 40'/40 Ath 1.3/64 CM9 X Shredder 6.02 30 18 12 60% 40'/40 Ath 1.3/64 CM9 X Yace 0.99.56 30 21 9 70% 40'/40 Ath 1.3/64 <font color="0000FF">CM9 X Total 390 240 150 62% 40'/40 Various</font> </pre></p> <pre> Individual statistics: <font color="0000FF"> (1) CM9 X : 390 (+170,=140,- 80), 61.5 %</font> Aristarch 4.4 : 30 (+ 17,= 9,- 4), 71.7 % Crafty 18.15 : 30 (+ 17,= 9,- 4), 71.7 % Chess Tiger 14 : 30 (+ 11,= 14,- 5), 60.0 % Fritz 7008 : 30 (+ 9,= 15,- 6), 55.0 % Gambit Tiger 2 ag : 30 (+ 7,= 12,- 11), 43.3 % Hiarcs 7.32 : 30 (+ 11,= 12,- 7), 56.7 % Hiarcs 8 : 30 (+ 11,= 11,- 8), 55.0 % Junior 7 : 30 (+ 15,= 3,- 12), 55.0 % List 4.61 : 30 (+ 14,= 13,- 3), 68.3 % Nimzo 7.32 : 30 (+ 15,= 11,- 4), 68.3 % Ruffian 1.0.1 : 30 (+ 13,= 13,- 4), 65.0 % Shredder 6.02 : 30 (+ 14,= 8,- 8), 60.0 % Yace 0.99.56 : 30 (+ 16,= 10,- 4), 70.0 % </pre> <pre> Games : 390 (finished) White Wins : 145 (37.2 %) Black Wins : 105 (26.9 %) Draws : 140 (35.9 %) Unfinished : 0 White Perf. : 55.1 % Black Perf. : 44.9 % ECO A = 72 Games (18.5 %) ECO B = 80 Games (20.5 %) ECO C = 67 Games (17.2 %) ECO D = 113 Games (29.0 %) ECO E = 58 Games (14.9 %)</pre> <font color="0000FF">INTERESTING REMARKS / INTERESSANTE ANMERKUNGEN The course of the single matches divided into 3 x 10 games / Verlauf der einzelnen Matches, unterteilt in je 3 x 10 Partien:</font> <font color="0000FF">CM9 X vs Aristarch 4.4 </font> Games 01-10 = 4.5 -
