Not at all.. it is my pleasure dear chess friends )

Breaking News (13.01.2025):
Just another unofficial tourney...the target is simply to see P16's strength,
Plus to check the influences regarding my old dated lines will work or not..
And as we see (even under these cond.) fully deserves its 'Perfect' name!
As same words going for many...e.g Kramnik's points are impressive too!
Note that I spent minus plus 10 min for P16 (plus for all rest book players)
It's based on wins, played by Perfect 16 book series..plus I was wondering
Also about what will be the General statistics (by Hannibal 1.0a)..since all
Played by this engine which is close to Super GMs levels (about 2850 Elo)
And here are the habitual stats (based on 3078 games): White Wins: 26%,
Black Wins: 18% / Draws: 56%, Total: 54% - 46% in other words, it seems
All right by Hannibal, because especially since NNUE, these numbers are
Disappeared from sight, but as I stated earlier all in our hands..we are free,
No One in chains is here..at least in SCCT!
Btw, right now another new idea is born, very soon, I plan to work over new
Championship where all GMs books (including the Trend ones too) will be
Played by Hannibal 1.0a really I like it..not so much weak or to be so much
Drawish like almost all other Top engines, yes they may be stronger, but as
We know, it's almost impossible to defeat them. but via planning new cond.
At least there will be one true, FUN and Strength will be with us, you know,
If my Perfect 16 wins book managed to perform with 60% win. percentage..
Why not any other one?) here undoubtedly I expect to see better records!
Ok chess friends, that's all for now, exc. in the next days, I hope to create
More and newer GMs book versions, where will be based on more games..

The Leader: Perfect 16 wins - Congratulations and thanks to all Super GMs!
Perfect 16 book includes 119 wins/ 45 defeats/ rest 160 games ended draws

UPDATE 1

Meanwhile,
Here are the overall rankings (merged all recent tours in one):

Once more I'd like to mention over,
The 'powerful' move is not in size or in date, but in correct line!

Btw, for example, which perfectly suits all over:
Perfect 16' book's opening lines are belonging to 2008/2009 years,
And its size is micro (735 KB) now just imagine! but working over..
Like my 2nd job..very likely my 25+ years experience helps here!

On the other hand, this is also true that,
324 games may lead to 'error margin' about strength conclusions..
Sure I'm not going to share...since I assume many of you are aware
About my played games via Online (in past) plus as other reference
In other book tours, Perfect 16 contains enough games about all over!
If still not so clear, Perfect16 proved in every cond. that is not so weak!

What I can add more, according to latest played SCCT data:
Giri, Karjakin, Kramnik, Anand, Ding, So etc. are preferring
The latest strong Human + Eng opening theory! there is no other
Explanation of that..where unfortunately Nakamura, Kasparov..
Suffers under these tour conditions, actually Nakamura in most
GMs book tours is not ranked in Top places, but in Human game
Play: Hikaru Nakamura has a dynamic and tactical playing style,
Yes, he is a real genius for sure, as same words are going for all
GMs players as well..you know, not many can achieve 2700+ Elo!

Ok chess friends, it is time to concentrate on over the new planning tour,
Which will be included more stronger book players..and please stay tuned )

Breaking News - 15.01.2025
Unfortunately current book championship re-started and all the
Games are going to be replayed by CF-EXT 291120, as reason:
Hannibal 1.01a is buggy in some openings e.g sometimes even
The disabled moves played..sure not so frequent but happened!
I noticed these bugs in some of games played by Trend books..
And once more, Hannibal seems to be one of best if a tour via
GMs book players, since I don't touch GMs played original lines,
For examples, I leave theirs lines as they should be..otherwise,
1st. I have no free to optimize them by hand, 2nd. just in case,
I can not call my created recent books as 'original' GMs books
Actually as same words are going for my Perfect 16 wins too,
I mean that no any of Perfect16 wins's line tuned by hand etc.
So in the recent unofficial, there was no any book bug, Results:
https://sites.google.com/site/computers ... p16-vs-gms
But just in case, I mean that if a tour via well-hand-tuned books,
Then Hannibal or any other 2800+ Elo engine is not so good
Choice, even I say as critical... but it's impossible to know until
We try... Btw, just a few words about CF-EXT 291120 engine:
Proved many times (in older tours) that CF is a superior strong!
Moreover not much Drawish, plus as most important: it is stable!
Anyhow, we'll see because to be 100% sure, regarding all over..
I need to check....since Bullet cond. such as for time forfeits will
Appear or not..you know, there is no any guarantee about over,
After all, time will tell..and sorry for the trouble..but no worry..since
In short time I will replay...besides, every cloud has a silver lining!

What I can add more (with the new planning tour conditions),
I expect to see not only stable tournament games, but in same
Time better quality (in strength) games...plus more fun for sure!
And I assume for your side too...!)

By the way, without to not mention this I can not as well,
What a pity that close to Humans strength engines offer
Not much options. and only a few engines are capable to
Use polyglot book format and those ones have poor options,
Such as 'use book' etc. but what about to be via Book Depth
Or to be included also to use Dual books etc? That's why
SF based 3600+ engines are ideal for 'serious' book tours!

And please stay tuned, very soon I hope to share latest results,
But as firstly GMs opening books and later the Trend ones too!

Best,
Sedat

Just one more LIVE update for Today:

House Of Dragon is a new private book (by Mr. Ian Hurnavich)
And to be honest, not so bad performance..but I expected more!

On the other hand,
Sure 440 games is not bad data, but may lead to wrong conclusions,
That's why, it will be much better to see its points after 1000 games,
And even if it will be as last rank..not as most important...because
Sometimes any Author's book or engine performance may go down,
But as most important I think that we have to know how to go up!
