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)
to EdTrice:
I noticed, that the result of the game has been a welcomed satisfaction for those who are hoping that humans still might play better (Gothic) Chess than computer programs.
You know that Smirf still has a lot of weaknesses, where I have to develop against. With a 53K size of its engine there already is a lot of intelligence per byte, but it has to be enriched to finally become able to defeat your Gothic Vortex program or even a top player like you.
If you remember Smirf playing in November at your fine tournament, you definitely could notice the one or other improvement. But still e. g. the evaluation function is unchangedly weak.
The new beta BC-056 has eliminated the PGN reading bug, when comments are standing split at several lines. Also the search routine is no longer that overpruned like it partially had been in its ancestors.
Is your Gothic Vortex even still subject for improvements (beside of providing more looking-up information)?.
