Stoofvlees has quite successfully made it through the qualification stage in current CCC 9.

It has progressed into the quarterfinals. It might be the end of the story for now, as it had
a bad start in the quarters but moving up the ranks slowly.... but unlikely to get into the top 4.

Still not so bad for an all new enghine which is not related to the existing NN engine LC0 (well aside
from the fact that GCP did write Leela go in the first place of course).

On May 2018 I asked Gian Carlo: is it possible to write a Deep Sjeng running on a GPU?
Now I got the answer: done!
"It is a new design, not related to either program. I mostly wanted to try a bunch of ideas that never made it to Leela (Zero Chess)"
He called it Stoofvlees. Maybe when it is ready it will be Deep Sjeng 4.0
The engine has an own net and only works on a Nvidia GPU. It also runs on CPU - but about 300 points weaker.

The newest version is named StoofVlees II a9 and we started to test it for CEGT 40/20 and 40/4.
At the moment I have 30 games for 40/20
StoofVlees II a9 - Ethereal 11.25 x64 1CPU : 20,5/30 16-5-9

and I made 100 games for 40/4

1 StoofVlees II a9 +10 +38/=27/-35 51.50% 51.5/100
2 Xiphos 0.5 x64 1CPU -10 +35/=27/-38 48.50% 48.5/100
