GLORIOUS JavaScript LEAGUE after 150 rounds (900 games):

A test match in progress. One that seems sadistic. The best chess engine of the moment against a promising young NNUE:

Final point in my GLORIOUS JavaScript LEAGUE:

Image

The playing conditions were similar to those of my other tournaments/matches. tomitankChess_5.1_x64 remains the best pure JavaScript chess engine (Democracy_0.1.0 is just a combo using many engines written in other programming languages ​​and Stockfish-16.1-single-JS is just a partial JavaScript rewrite of a C++ engine).

NR: my SUPERIOR JAVA League 2024 was updated with the latest versions.

Two test matches for the new chess4j-6.0 (Jim Ablett & orignal author's .jar file):

Detroid 1.0.1 64-bit has 2487 (CCRL Blitz).

Queen 4.03 w32 has 2289 (CCRL Blitz).

Chess4j 5.1 64-bit has 2295 (CCRL Blitz).

Conclusion: the new chess4j-6.0 64-bit NNUE (in alpha stage) is a bit inferior to the previous version (5.1).

Final point in my SUPERIOR JAVA League 2024 (the result is a little late, lately I have been busy with other activities...however, CCRL has not yet tested either Calvin 4.3.0 -nor 4.2.0- or Bagatur 5.1c). Below is the result of the 198-round fight (maybe I will extend the tour if new versions appear) among the ten best chess engines of the moment written in Java. The playing conditions were similar to those of my other tournaments/matches.

Image

I also started a small test (only 100 games) between Obsidian 14 and the best version of Stockfish (v24103108) at the moment (after NCM -I ask "someone" not to make facepalm too loudly... SF fans have high expectations....). :lol:

The final participants in my THIRD JAVA League tournament are those in the grid below. I use a TC=60 moves/15' - atypical for my matches and tournaments where I only use 4'+2" - this is because of the presence in the tournament of Javalin and Tiffanys chess engines that do not support TC with increment. Some of the participating engines have never been tested by CCRL or CEGT (Lila, WeiawagaJ, CaffeinatedPawn...). BLANK 1.3.0 x64 - 1655 Elo points (CCRL Blitz) can be used as a reference point.

I'm also currently running - just out of curiosity - a small match (100 games) between Stormphrax 6 and Clover 8.
