First update in eight months, thx. I wonder if it means we're finally going to see the final product.

It mentions there that the project is also a resource for people who collect games, where would I find them?

Nice one, and , if the auxiliary engine accepts to read and play .bin books, would it be possible to let Leelafish play its auxiliary engine book if it exists ? I haven't used .bin books. I guess some engines (but not Stockfish?) have UCI options that allow it to use .bin? You can pass any arbitrar...

Is InfinityChess a free GUI? In that case I would try it for you.

Edit:
Well, I see it needs some registering, thus I am not too keen to try it, sorry...

Here's the Installer, but I don't recall if you can play games as a guest.

Where do you get that "go movetime N" is independent of engine and HW? A faster engine will reach higher depth with the same allocated time, similarly, faster HW or a higher thread count will have the same effect; you must know that. Please, read once again my post about my test. Can you post a gam...

The large majority of games are decided in the middle game and not in the endgame.

That would be in line with what I recall from Laskos' test, you won't happen to remember which thread that was, will you?

A fixed movetime gives much higher search depths in endgame and does not depend on the chosen engine, the used hardware and the number of threads.

I plan to add support for "go movetime N" instead of depth

Why "instead"?
