Prolog:
On Dec. 1 the 5th Online-Masters 2005/2006 begins. It is organized by CSS, the
german online computerchess magazine (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. The tournament will go on until late
February. 40 participants which were entered by users are competing in 5 groups
of 8 programs. Level: 60 minutes per game + 15s per move (fisher-clock).
Double round robin, which means that each program will play 14 games in any
case. 16 programs will qualify for the next round and 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 (new: 9.12!) defend its title? Will the brandnew Deep Gandalf 7
get it again? Or will Zappa 2.1 on a Quad Machine be unbeatable? What about the
brandnew Fritz9? Or Loop List? Or Fruit Dev. Version (new)? Or Spike - new too,
Engine from yesterday!
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 around 600 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 single-cpu-users or free dual engines. These engines will play their own
(quarter-), semi- and final-games.
Have fun!
