Subject: 200 Games - Top Engines - Ruffian 2.0.0 Dissapointment

Author: William Rex

Date: 11:33:19 01/03/04


This tournament was run at 1 min + 3 seconds.  The position used was Nunn2.
Some engines showed good play, but Ruffian 2.0.0 was dissapointing.  It came in
last by far, not even close to the top commercial engines from chessbase.  Is
this because ruffian is not so good at blitz?  I'm not sure anyone have input on
this?  These were the engines that were included..

Ruffian 2.0.0
Shredder 7.04
Junior 8
Hiarcs 9
Fritz 8.0.0.23

Games were played at 1 min + 3 seconds - nunn2 position

Here are the results
