Tornado 4.1 chess960 results so far

[Ray]

I have played against 6 opponents so far, 600 games. At this point, Tornado 4.1 is approx +80 ELO stronger than the last version I tested, 3.42. Of course I am not even half way through yet, the results could change up or down. To date only weaker opponents have been played, because I was not expecting this sort of increase. Over the next few days, the full range of opponents will be played, within +/- 300 ELO
