Why are there not so much top programs here?
Has there not been so much new updates since last TCEC?

[Mike S.]

This is just the first of three stage 1 tournaments, with 12 engines each.

Almost all famous engines and more are in, with very few exceptions like Hiarcs (withdrawn), Fritz 13/14 (not UCI), Deep Sjeng (rather old). Some lesser known lacked stability during previous seasons.

Thanks

[JManion]

I was looking for the rules to see how many engines advance, but did not see anywhere to click for rules.

Also I was looking for a way to see the other flights, but did not see them.

Thank you

Menu help -> rules

Also I was looking for a way to see the other flights, but did not see them.

There's only 1 game at a time.

[JManion]

When I go to this website. http://tcec.chessdom.com/live.php

I see no Menu.

I see TCEC next to it is Don Chess, and below that is the TCEC web GUI.

When I meant flights, I meant the engines in the 2nd group, and engines in the 3rd group etc.

Don't you see "File View Tools Help" ?

When I meant flights, I meant the engines in the 2nd group, and engines in the 3rd group etc.
