Hi all :) , we updated our CEGT websites again and now have 859 games for most engines. The rating list is here: http://www.husvankempen.de/nunn/cegt.html The list itself is not astonishing, but when one compares total results from CEGT 1 with 510 games for each engine with those of CEGT 2 with 349 games for each engine, testers will have to confess that it is practically impossible to measure the strength of engines with less than 1000 games and we should stop to draw conclusions from shorter tournaments. Just compare Junior and Fritz or Gandalf in CEGT 1 and 2. This is independent of time control, although I hoped it would be less extreme with our longer time control. It is also independent of using Nunn, Noomen or general books, as we now used almost all Nunn positions to cover the most important openings and Charles with general books also has the same differences. We will push the CEGT tournaments to more than 1000 games for each engine to reduce the error bars. http://www.chessfighters.de/cegt/ http://www.husvankempen.de/nunn/ Please also read about AEGT starting these days.
