RomiChess Gauntlet

Post by swami »

Hamsters told its best friend Kiwi to challenge Romi because it was furious that it keeps getting beaten from Romi and Hamsters overheard the conversation between Romi and Michael recently,and it just couldn't stand up with the strength of newer betas and has come up with good idea that is, to summon its best friend and alliance for long time,Kiwi to face Romi in 30 games Noomen Matches. :)

and after the current 2A division gets finished,Romichess will challenge these opponents on one on one battle.

Code: Select all

Romichess (NG4 or Latest Beta) 30 games Noomen Matches against

1.Kiwi (seeking revenge)
2.Nanoszachy (Current Edition Division 4 Champion)
3.Homer (Romi seeking revenge)
4.Pupsi (4th edition runner up)
5.Hamsters(will play as long as Kiwi also plays)
6.Xpdnt(3rd Division Champ)
7.Delphil(3rd Division Runner up)
8.Muse (2B Champ)
9.Danasah (Almost same strength as Romi)
10.Crafty 
and 1 last placed engine in upper Division 2A

Any more engines you would like to add to the list,Michael?

Yup, I am hoping that Romi will score 30%. If it were a learn on 100 game match then Romi would have won.

....BTW,I am still testing the public version of RomiChess and the last beta sent to me by Michael:

RomiChess P3j i 2357_21/30
RomiChess OW2c 2411_23/30

Now I am carrying it to over 100 for each version at slow time controls to get a more accurate Elo estimation 8-)
In my future rating list there will be something like a version history tracker to view the progress of certin engines through the time :D

Yup! No doubt about it, Crafty is a Romi killer, especially in the end game.
Hmmm, lets see, Crafty ~16 years of developement by more than one person (mostly Bob though) vs Romi of ~2 years devlopement by only me. Does this seem fair? Nope, but, who cares! :lol: As a point of interest though, Romi in a Nunn2.pgn match was scoring about 38% against Crafty 19.19. However, the better Romi scored against Crafty the worse she scored against other engines. So, I stopped testing against Crafty. Awhile back (not too long ago) I did a test against Crafty 19.19 that I do not remember the results except for the fact that it was quite dissmal. Hundreds of ELO points gained against all engines as a whole and about 1/3 less points against Crafty!

Crafty's younger cousin, Faile (they seem to have a similar feel) was exactly the same. Better against faile, worse against Olithink, better against Olithink, worse against Faile. One time way back, Romi managed 41.5/50 vs Olithink and then only got 37.0/50 vs Faile. Before I started the improvement vs Olithink marathon it was 36.0/50 vs Olithink and 45.5 vs Faile. Unbelieveable!

Anyway Swami, I am sending NG5 to you, just in case that you would like to run that one against the gauntlet, as well. I really think, so far, that NG5 may be substantially stronger than NG4, but it is too early to tell.

Best,
Mike

Hi Michael,
I know that it's going toooo slow,but definitely consistently,and when I am done with this beta,I'll start testing your recent one :D
I am more interested in testing the avangarde learning function implented in your engine 8-)
Best to you,
