On Dec. 1 the 5th Online-Masters 2005/2006 begins. It is organized by
CSS(computerschach.de). It will be conducted in a special tournament room on the
Fritz9 Playchess server (www.schach.de). Most participants are using the Fritz
interface, which allows engines to play automatically online against each other.
Most likely the tournament will go on until late February.  24-30 participants
which were entered by users are competing in 4-5 groups of 5-7 programs. Level:
60 minutes per game + 15s per move (fisher-clock). Double round robin, which
means that each program will play 12 games in any case.  8 or 16 programs will
qualify for the next round and 8 or 4 will play against each other, the winners
will play the quarter final and so on. The one who gets 2,5 points first joins
the next round, so 3 or 5 games are possible. In case of 2,5:2,5 both will play
15m15s games, same procedure, “2,5 points” wins  (then “first win”).
Last years winner was Deep Shredder on Quad, Sjeng did it 2003 and Christian
Goralski with Gandalf6 in 2002. Stefan Kleinert (CM8000) got the title 2001/02.
Will Shredder defend its title? Will the brandnew Deep Gandalf 6 get it again?
Or will Zappa on a Quad Machine be unbeatable? What about the brandnew Fritz9?
Or Loop List? Or Fruit? A lot of Players are using the very best hardware so the
Masters will be the strongest and biggest computerchess-tournament ever played.
Some brand new beta-versions like Deep Gandalf or Zappa will play the very first
time in public.
In summary over 150 games will be played until we know who will win the
Online-Masters. The winner will need more than a bit of luck to win this
tournament, it has to be a real champion. And there will be a special price for
the non-top-single-engine or oldie, too. The “marked engines” will play their
own (quarter-), semi- and final-games. Have fun!
