Hello, good evening all,
the first round is now completed with this last match, and results in clear rankings: the four strongest computers score two points each, and will fight each other next round, and the weakest ones got zero points and will be the second half of the next round. Rightly sorted!
This last match is CXG Super Enterprise vs Scisys Intercontinental Traveler with 540 CElo discrepancy: an easy walk for the Danielsen's 16K program. The level I use is A5+H2, this stands for 15secs/move, standard openings, aggressive playing style.
