Why VITRUVIUS is not tested by CCRL, CEGT etc?

Post by FriedmannC »

This amazing engine has an unique dynamic ans speculative style. Why isn't being tested, regardless the fact that comes as an Ivanhoe derivative?

Vitruvius_1.1SE_HEM_x64 is is the latest version, 30 ELO points stronger than Vitruvius 1!! http://www.vitruviuschess.com/article/A ... ltati.html
So the sooner the tests begin, the better! At 40/40 and on CEGT at long time control: 40/120.

Yes, it is interesting information. Along with being complete bullshit.

its certainly an interesting engine; but whereas with Gm's speculative
combinations can work, due to slight mistakes of the opponent
and/or psychology (Kasparov became world champ in such a way)
it not often works against engines as Houdini. But if these
guys -the Vitruv programmers- can conquer the horizon effect in
some way or another, or improve the way they already do it
then i think its a very promising engine.
This is what chess is all about.
