I used winboard program, hash 64 in a quad no oc 2.2, and 3-4-5 men hash 16. In top I said time control 1/0. I already have your book sicilian in my forum posted by Aaron... But I can test your book vs other bin... which one you want me to test vs yours? Or I can choose any one.

[dene]

most accurate results need at least 100 games played

I agree with that statement.

These 20 game mini tourneys give a reasonable idea though which book is stronger

i second the motion. but still mergion2 is the best binbook.

For sure 20 games are not enough, I tried making mini tourneys like you said Dene...

[zappa_engine]

Thanks for the test. 9 points out of 20 isn't too bad.
Did you plan on doing a round robin so every book gets a chance to play each other?
How do you handle ponder in matches? I would think the best way to do book matches would be to have two equal systems so both engines can have full access to ponder mode without hindering the other engine's thinking.

[Waldemar]

I have only one computer And yes it would be better to have a good conclusion which book is strong if all of them have the chance to play against eachother... I can try make this but for sure I will use few books, maybe only 5
