Hi Stephen,
U said that 2 mn games aren't interesting to show as the real strength of the
engines, i can't say that it's not true, but i think that it's a short time
control that can let many chess funs that doesn't have enough time to make some
tournaments (interesting one) and to have also interesting games. I must say
that the 2mn games aren't really the main tournaments i make, but it's a
possible test to see the engines style, to try to find the weaknesses and also
to make tournaments. If would take me three months or more to make a single
tournament between ten engines (one single round). But i found this solution for
short time tournaments. But i also try to make tournaments in longer time
controls (generally match between two engines) when i notice something or when i
have an unusual idea that must be prooven by longer time controls.
But as i see in chessmaster graal, developing settings for blitz is in general
good for longer time controls. But it's probably true for chessmaster and not
for shredder, i don't know.
