And publishing the source to the engine that you changed will also be extremely helpful. There's a reason stockfish is just as much of a resource as it is a chess engine.

Sure, I can do it tomorrow.

Talk is cheap. Show us the code…
Silence has spoken.
Well actually I posted the pseudo-code already, and abundant description of my algorithm. I don't understand why the burden of proof needs to be so high for my inventions? Did John McCarthy post source code when he invented Alpha-Beta? Did Donald Knuth? No, that's right, they posted pseudo-code. Just like me. And we don't question them.

Besides, I did go ahead and add my algorithm to the abovementioned engine, but wasn't able to produce any sensible results. Quoting my wise father Emanuel who said: "son, if you tie a decorative bow around a piece of shit, underneath that bow, there will still be a piece of shit". It's a bit strong wording, but you get the point. I'll try another engine and report back the results. Get ready to have your little minds boggled!
Nah, your idea is just shit and you're ____. Prove me wrong.

Maybe you copied your stockfish commits from someone else too?
I will look into that.

Emanuel, maybe you could try TSCP.
It's a very simple and bug free chess engine.
