Sam has closed his piano and gone to bed ... now we can talk about the real stuff of life ... love, liberty and games such as Janus, Capablanca Random, Embassy Chess & the odd mention of other 10x8 variants is welcome too
For posting: - invitations to games (you can also use the New Game menu or for particular games: Janus; Capablanca Random; or Embassy) - information about upcoming tournaments - disussion of games (please limit this to completed games or discussion on how a game has arrived at a certain position ... speculation on who has an advantage or the benefits of potential moves is not permitted while that particular game is in progress) - links to interesting related sites (non-promotional)
Pythagoras: "For example and since you are the only one that can test it, how it can do against Spike 1.1 at CRC?"
P.S.: Everyone could download SMIRF and test it, it is not restricted until the end of this month.
Actually I do not play much 8x8 games against other programs. But because of the results from some special test sets, SMIRF's 8x8 strength seems to be somewhere around 2600 Elo.
Actually SMIRF has come to a stage, where a complete redesign would make sense. But there are very few fans supporting the SMIRF project but much more critics. So I am unsure to take that task.
