Rybka all the way.

Rybka all the way.

I doubt Rybka can win a division she isn't even in!

My guess would be Movei, but predicting the current leader will win isn't sticking my neck out much.

My bad.

I do not know but the winner may have significant problems in the premier division if it does not get an upgrade.

Trace1.37a was the winner of the second division
She was not upgraded and now she has only 9/24 in the first division.

Another question is how many points is going to get the winner.

Here is some history data about the points of the winner of the second important tournament in wbec.


Edition 14:WildCat 7.0 61.5/92
Edition 13:The Baron 1.8.2-b3 55/88
Edition 12:delfi4.6 62.5/92
Edition 11:Pseudo 0.7c 61.0 / 92
Edition 10:Spike 0.9a 68.0 / 92
Edition 9: Fruit X12-11 63.0 / 92
Edition 8: Maestro 1.06uci 39.0 / 64
Edition 7: Thinker 4.5a 44.0 / 68

At the other end, it is sad to see Yace struggling to stay in this division, shows the progress of recent years

I am still routing for Chess Tiger and Movei. I dont want to run on the bright fan train.

I believe that the premier division should be subdivided into two groups, since there is a big difference in rating between the strongest programs of the premier Division and the programs that get promoted from the 1st division. My opinion is that all those programs that qualified from the 1st division into the premier should compete in a different and lower division than Premier.

Hi Uri,

Its good to see Movei constantly improving. You've done amazingly well considering you've only been programming for a few years now.

TRACE 137 made it to 1st Division - but its true what you say... no upgrade... and therefore - no chance...

BTW, TRACE 2 (rewrite) is improving rapidly and is currently about even with T137 but I want to improve/tune some more before releasing it.

I hope Movei wins this tournament.
I also hope TRACE avoids relegation...

Cheers,
Ross
