HIARCS Chess Forums

I am glad to see two brand new engines entering.. I have heard of Pandix before, not sure from where.. Tzunami on the other hand is completely new to me. I wish one of you dutch people can get the queenmaxima program to compete with a decent hardware.

There was a clone commercial engine named Hydra, which was simply Fruit 2.1.

Why is a draw against Rybka and a win not enough. Its not certain that Rybka will win against junior. Who win in the case both Rybka and Hiarcs end on 7.5 point? The only way hiarcs can win the tournament is by defeating Rybka, or by expecting rybka to lose a game . Can hiarcs pull an upset??? In c...

The last release of Shredder was almost 100 points stronger than the previous one. I think Shredder's problem is SMP scalability, I ...

Couldn't help the pun. Well, for some unknown reason Steve B said he'd give me some of his second/thirds in his collection. The conditions were: o I get 1 for making the challenges and completing them with Steve and Thorsten. o I get another for winning the match with Steve's Mephisto London o I ge...
