Re: 2017 World Computer Software Championship 2017
Thank you for the link. What can you tell us about "Chess Ebiz 9"? It dropped a knight on move 13, followed by the queen for a knight on the next move, and was mated in 24 by Jonny.

I do not know anything about Chess Ebiz 9, but the programmer has written a few chess programs and has a wiki page here:zenpawn wrote:Thank you for the link.

It's either very experimental or just buggy; all its games seem to proceed in similar "non-materialistic" fashion.mjlef wrote:I do not know anything about Chess Ebiz 9, but the programmer has written a few chess programs and has a wiki page here:zenpawn wrote:Thank you for the link.

Thanks for this news and link.
Very strange when there are very few participants.
Some were not checked properly for bugs too.
