I agreed as I can see a purpose in getting a meaningful comparison, both in seeing which CM settings perform best against other programs and to what degree this comparison can also be seen in their games against each other. My goal is to find the CM setting that is most consistent taking both of these factors into account whereas others will have different preferences. Some will say having so many CM settings in such a tournament is pointless as one or more are bound to do well. However there are conditions involved here that will sweep this aside as nonsense for this tournament! All are using a common book and will play each opening position reached from both the white side and the black side. Each participant will play 10 games against the other. In other words, I think that this tournament will be very meaningful! Standings after Round 11 of 110 7.0 - CM10th Pestilence 7.0 - Fruit WCCC'05 7.0 - Spike 1.0a Mainz 6.5 - CM10th D1 Meandros 6.0 - CM10th Milan 2.3 6.0 - Junior 9 5.0 - CM10th Cell 5.0 - Fritz 8 Bilbao 4.5 - CM10th Berean 5.54 4.5 - Shredder 9 4.0 - Hiarcs 9 3.5 - CM10th Behemoth II The crosstable will be updated and games will be available at the following link. Please note that this can only be updated as I send the games to Heinz, so there may be a small delay with it being completely up to date. http://www.husvankempen.de/nunn/cmxg.htm
