Hi all , as interest in Fruit 2.1 is very high (no surpirse as it is gorgeously strong) CEGT testers are updating the rating list more often than usually. You can´t find it on our websites, but here when scolling to the bottom: http://wbforum.volker-pittlik.name/viewtopic.php?t=2906 This one is a provisional as a lot more games will come tomorrow for example from Michael und Uschi and we will give a new one on our websites tomorrow evening. Compared to the last rating list given by Christian Fruit lost two points while Fritz won two, due to a very good performance in CEGT WCC and due to the individual results against Fruit. According to the error bars we have now with 960 games for Fruit it can still go to rank 2 with some hundred games more. In case of very bad performance it could also drop to rank 4 or 5. By giving more matches against the very top we raised the average opposition ELO for Fruit now to the opponent level Junior has. The assumption that this would increase ELO so far did not prove to be true, what Michael and I anyway already doubted from all the tournaments we ran in the past years. It can happen for some engines that they perform better against the top, it can as well be that rating increases when playing against the lower end of the list. We had all this cases. For Fruit 2.0 Michael in his Active Chess ratinglist had an improvement as soon as the former version played against weaker opposition. http://www.husvankempen.de/nunn/ http://www.miko42.de/ (german) http://www.chessfighters.de/cegt/ http://uk.geocities.com/bloodhound66@btinternet.com/index.htm Best Regards Heinz
