It's a GOLDEN key !

UPDATE 1

Well, here is a new, but super strong entry: DON 091224 !!
Here reminds my Perfect 16 book, which has similar record!
I mean about theirs draw ratio (72%) plus win.percentage: 57.4%
You know, not easy as it looks to reach these unbelievable stats..
And there is one true: a powerful MAGNET requires for sure !!

Sure 408 games (per player) is not as bad data...
Anyhow let's see after more players + games...but
It seems latest new DON is serious Champ defender!

On other hand, the latest new entries by
Mr. Hamdullah, Mr. Cevdet or Mr Hurnavich still did not say the last words..
We will see.. but since a long time I did not organize such exciting tour !!

Breaking News - 11.12.2024:
Finely current Book / Exp CS is ended...Congratulations and thanks to all!
DON..DON...DON..is the Winner (Champion) of this very hard competition!
Yes Mr. Vasid's book is performed with 57% win. percentage/draw ratio 73%
And to be honest: new but super strong ideas require to see similar stats!!
About 2nd rank I admit also Mr. Hamdullah series such as Queen's Gambit
Performed very good and same words for 3rd. DynamicS (by Mr Hurnavich)
Plus for many other authors as well...besides, some are already old-dated...
So here we can't expect much...On the other hand, as usual, the Champion
Of Public players is OPTIMUS (by Mr. Roger)! Be aware of that too please,
Exc. Mr. Cevdet, all the rest authors of latest Entries are requested theirs
Played games (sure during active tour) and here my respect and it sounds
Perfectly fine to Me.. and just imagine..otherwise (I mean without updates),
Non of these great results would exist, right? or if wrong, please correct Me..
Btw, without to not mentioning this I can not as well, and as I stated earlier:
NNUE is good of course but Classic is better! For example, it's something like,
Racing Pigeons are finding/orienteering their homes via less help, assistance..
Or as other good example, in my best: my human strength is about 1800 Elo,
But just in case, If I will gain from older/other data (in game-play) believe Me:
I'll have chance to increase my human's chess strength a lot of hundreds Elo!
In other words, via using Classic conditions: the tournaments are much harder
And more exciting for sure, proved and guaranteed...but this is also true that,
In Eng tourneys: No Limits..many Testers prefer at any cond. as he/she wish..
Such as like Cage Fighting! Actually rather I'd say nothing new...even World
Computer Chess Championships organized under unlimited hardware speeds
In same timer that means there, not Eng strength but Processor speed wins!
Ok chess friends that's all for now enjoy the results, take care, stay safe..

B/E/C I's Private Book Champion: DON - Congratulations to Vasid Chouhan!
Public Book Champion OPTIMUS - Congratulations to Roger Constantinesco!

Hello Chess Friends,

As usual, I'm very pleased to announce that
Long-waited championship is coming soon..

What's new? for anyone missed and interested:
It will be under similar cond. as organized: 2023
https://sites.google.com/site/computers ... -35-stage4
As main difference, this time I hope to include the
Original Champ authors books, since all of them
Available / installed on my tournament machine!
E.g in the previous organized Number Ones CS, all
Of them were as based Champ books, created by Me..

In other words, this time:
New / Updated Champion books will be allowed..
But only who became Champions of 2024 year!

About the planning Number Ones CS's Start Day,
Not so clear the exact day...but I think around on:
20-25 December 2024, the tournament to be started!
So in those days... the Champion of 2024 are free to
Submit 1 (one) new book, and thanks in advance )
If no updates...then I may use one the versions, which
Managed to be Champion/s (in older tours of 2024)!

Meanwhile,
Be ready for the real Arena !) this is really a very
Important book championship..and let's see who
Will manage to be Champion of Champions 2024?
And any guess? DON or? because nowadays Mr. Vasid
Is trend to be Winner... at least to be 2nd... even in
Older Number Ones CS...DON series managed often
To be 2nd, but in the new planning tour..time will tell!

And please stay tuned..more info soon as possible!

Hello Chess Friends,

As usually, I'm very pleased to announce that,
I've organized a new handicapped competition!
It's similar Championship as Handicapped CS II
https://sites.google.com/site/computers ... apped-cs-2

What's New?
1st of all, see tour's screenshot: some pieces are missing!)
As other main differences are that (about the new tourney),
2.Constant players are close to Super GMs level strength
3. More original engines are tested in Handicapped mode
Btw, according to privates tests, many SF family ones are
Did better than SF17, but not better than PlentyChess !!
And it seems under these cond. the KING is PlentyChess!
4. I've tested so far: Top 18 engines (as Handicapped...)
5. Very soon more handicapped test coming..but in Rapid

Some More Notes,
Top engines are participated with 30 Handicapped openings:
E.g as without 3 (three) pawns or as without 4 (four) pawns,
Without 1 (one) bishop or without 1 (one) knight, even there
Is such handicapped opening pos. it's without knight + bishop!
And just imagine...how much the competition is so so hard...!?
Meanwhile, all played as Eng learning disabled (for fair cond.)

As Final Conclusion, and as I stated earlier,
No One can stay on Top forever, especially No One can be
Number One...by the work of others! That's why I say over:
Be Original... be Creative...sure if your target is to be Best!
And feel the differences in SCCT too!)

The Winner (Champion) PlentyChess 3.0.1- Congratulations to Yoshie2000!
