WELCOME to ETOC-G!

ETOC-G serves as a pastime and something to watch.
Furthermore, I have own results for my overview of TOP-250 Engines.

ETOC-G is starting with a delay.
The first engine test is expected to start on February 10, 2026.

I don't think a Monty dev version was a good idea for a “Standard-Engine”. I switched to Tucano 12.00.
I had stability issues with Senpai 3.0.1 HCE JA during the first few games. I needed another engine with
lower playing strength in the “Standard-Engines” test field. I switched to SmarThink 1.98 HCE.

Standard-Engines should also have a rank (rank = Dienstgrad in German language)!
The engine to be tested plays against 26 Standard-Engines, the own parameters??!
Not possible with Standard-Engines or I build 26 pairings like: Uralochka 3.42a vs. Uralochka 3.42a
Solution: Everyone against everyone among the Standard-Engines as a tourney!
After this tourney: Final results +25/50 points for each of the 26 Standard-Engines to determine the rank.
The tourney can be run on my second test PC, Intel® Core™ i9-10900K with 10 cores, overclocked to 4.3Ghz.
I just need to give a slightly higher time control because my AMD system is faster.
Preparation-Tourney started: December 21st, 2025 (12:19), 16.250 games to play!
