When at SedatChess they claim that a SF clone targeted for correspondence analysis (=Corchess) is the best engine out there for tournanent play at bullet time controls (=TC 15 sec + 300 ms) :

I see.

So by this, we are to assume that Stockfish development has regressed 14 Elo (only 1008 games using UHO book) since November 22, 2024? For the uninformed, Alex's SF-PB is Stockfish with polyglot book code added. No other modifications to the source.

I will believe Stefan Pohl's testing any day compared to this thing. The reason? See here (right on, Viz :D)

I am not convinced that this TD has realized its own contradictions :
- engine optimized for correspondence games better than stockfish at bullet
- engine optimized for UHO openings list (=low draw rate) better with UNIQUE openings list (=high draw rate)
- etc

Here are the best TD statements to make your day :
