Now Top 3 engines tied in TCEC!
The best engines are all very active in improving.
And all the best engines are free.
Komodo is the only commercial engine at the top that is still active.
And why must we watch Houdini 6 from 2017 lose again. Tcec needs a rule to not play engines season after season that are no longer active.
I see no sense in that! Aren't we all just dying to see how it gets progressively easier to beat past untouchable monsters, and for how much longer they are still making difficulties and offering strong resistance?
For this we need exactly this. Season after season.

No, not all of us are dying to see this....
But TCEC does get more interesting as the weak engines fall.

But my words like silent raindrops fell. And echoed in the wells of silence.
Stockfish has bad tournment in cccc,
Leela 0 loss in 96 games,
SF 5 loss all of them to NN (many of them are in same opening , similar loss like previous tournments),

24 games between 256 threads (192 cores ) vs Leela! Leela is leading in TCEC!!
It looks like 10 cores, 100 cores or 1000 cores SF doesnt matter much against Leela , Leela on good GPU will still kick positional weakness of Stockfish!

Update of 100 games against Lco vs SF!
SF marginally won with +13 -12 =75 score (50.5 vs 49.5).
Facts. (Excluding margin of error in 100 games)
1. It was the same score as Season 14 final ( Leela T30 vs 44 cores Stockfish)
2. Stockfish has x4 speed hardware.
3. x4 speed boost Stockfish +30 elo against T40 Leela (there were not much elo improvement in both SF and Leela sides, although different nets were used ).
4. Beyond 40 threads, doubling Stockfish is not so great against Leela. (x4 speed= 30 elo means, doubling speed gives Stockfish +7.5 elo).
