As requested by Jason Kent, author of the Slayer personalities for CM, I have finished a little blitz tournament. Here are the particulars: Game in 5 minutes AMD XP 2500+ (@1.8GHz) ponder off 32MB Hash Each personality played each other 20 times The result is that the difference between 1st place and 4th place was only one point! And, surprisingly, CM_SKR (which is believed to be weaker than the default at faster time controls) was the clear winner. So, I think it can be said that either: a) These personalities are "equal" in this test setting, or b) More testing is needed.... ...or both. :-) Name Wins Draws Losses Games Score CM_SKR No Ponder 18 25 17 60 30.5 CM 32 No Ponder 20 20 20 60 30.0 Slayer 2 18 24 18 60 30.0 Slayer 18 23 19 60 29.5 Name 1 2 3 4 Total 1.CM_SKR NoPonder XXX 10.0/20 9.0/20 11.5/20 30.5/60 2.CM 32 No Ponder 10.0/20 XXX 11.5/20 8.5/20 30.0/60 3.Slayer 2 11.0/20 8.5/20 XXX 10.5/20 30.0/60 4.Slayer 8.5/20 11.5/20 9.5/20 XXX 29.5/60 If anybody would like the PGN, please let me know.... jm
