CCRL 40/40, 40/4 and FRC lists updated (29th December 2018)

[Graham Banks]

The latest CCRL Rating Lists and Statistics are available for viewing from the following links:
http://computerchess.org.uk/ccrl/4040/ (40/40)
http://www.computerchess.org.uk/ccrl/404/ (40/4)
http://www.computerchess.org.uk/ccrl/404FRC/ (FRC 40/4)

Please note that the three lists are often updated separately to each other. The FRC list is only updated when a new engine or engine version is being/has been tested.
Also, please note that the 40/40 and 40/4 lists are constructed from totally different databases and not comparable to each other.

Thanks to all of our currently active testers (Graham, Ray, Tirsa, Gabor and Sergio), plus to Chessdom.com for providing an online server to assist with resources.

CCRL team, many thanks again for testing FrankWalter!

Of course it's a bit disappointing to see it loose a couple of elo which is add odds with my observations from my own testing.

Perhaps it has to do with the time control code which I changed. I mostly tested with incremental time control games, so I'm going to do some repeating time control games now:-)

Happy new year!

Thanks to everyone who is and was testing Winter!

I'm also happy to see my rating estimations were correct up to the margin of error =)
