Swiss Tournament. Edition IV. Promotion Group

Post by Sergio Martinez »

- GUI : Arena 3.51
- Swiss system tournament. The engines will be divided into groups of 80, the first five divisions, and the rest into the promotion group. Ten engines will gain automatic promotion and the bottom engines will gain automatic relegation except in the promotion group that will promote 20 and therefore 20 other engines will be relegated from Group E.
- Time control: 40/4 (adapted to the CCRL benchmark).
- Ponder off
- Threads : 1
- Default hash=256Mb,
- Endgame tablebases: Syzygy -- Nalimov -- Scorpio Bitbases -- Gaviota ---64Mb hash
- Resign is set to -5 for 3 consecutive moves where able.
- Updates will not be allowed during each tournament (each division)
- Open to all Winboard and UCI engines (free, private and commercial).
- The similarity tool will be used to determine whether or not an engine can participate (Engines allowed until 70% of moves match).
- Results will be rated only for engines already in the CCRL lists.
- All engines will use the same opening book limited to an 8 move depth.
- Engine authors can either post their wish for their engine to participate or contact through email (sergiomg24@hotmail.com) or private message.

Deadline: Next November 6

****News in next edition:

It's the last time I'll use these conditions in the promotion group. As of the next edition, it will be called Group F and will have the same number of promotions as the other groups (10). There will be "candidates" who will be new engines in the tournament and who will play against engines of higher divisions to determine in which division they will play the next edition. The number of promotions and descents will be maintained, but depending on the new entries in the tournament, in each group the number of promotions and descents will be undetermined. For example the engine X (new entry) will play against the engine classified in the ranking 70 of group E, in case of winning the match (it will be a match to 10 games, needing at least 65% of the points to be able to ascend) it will participate against the number 70 of group D and so on in case of getting those points. If that engine gets play in group A, all the engines that have occupied the ranking 70 in previous edition will automatically descend until the number of participants in each group (80) is adjusted, except for group F in which fewer engines participate and which will increase in number until get 80 engines, at which time a new group will be created, which would be called group G and so on.
