Breaking News - 06.03.2025:
Ladies and Gentleman, today is a special day, time to announce Champion:
Skynet 180724 2nd. Red-Dragon 3rd. Everest 2023, really amazing results!
On other hand, over than 20+ entries: mostly already played in older Tours in
Number Ones CS and just out of curiosity participated again, moreover, they're
Small in size, as rest players too (up to 3 MB) and all of them can be counted
As old-dated, especially Vitamin 18-19 tuned to prefer 2018-2019 years lines,
The other oldies that belonging to 2020 year are: CF1977, Zaus, Cerebellum
Plus many belonging to 2022 and 2023 just only Tuanfish 2 and Hazel Upd,
Are newer, which are original (not my work) and released by OrgZ (in 2024)
Ok friends.. that's all for now, and urgently I need rest.. but before, I have a
Promise to create books...which will be based on latest SCCT Book Tours,
And not sure exactly but it seems will take some serious time to work over..

Current Champion: Skynet 180724 - My Congratulations to SkyNet (Alex)!
Note: Exactly same Skynet book ver managed to be Champ in XXXVIII too!

UPDATE

I almost forgot ) VerySmallCat 24p and Xperimental are original as well,
I mean they are not created by Me

Posted: **Sat Mar 08, 2025 6:36 am**

UPDATE 2

Plus the other original books (via latest entries) are:
Barnabas, Hamish, MiniFish, mUSTAGANEM and Ukraine..

In same time that means, overall BN XLII's creation stats:
Very likely over than 90% are derivatives, created by Me

Breaking News - 08.03.2025:
1st of all, today (8 march) is another very special day and our world is more
Beautiful than ever! Wishing to every woman a wonderful day filled with joy!
And via latest new update, Esculapio, Esculapio, Esculapio is managed to be
Number One, otherwise will be shocking news.. if one of Messi's (Mr.Angel)
Openings will be not... On other hand, during our private comments (mails),
Angel Morano is disagreed politely with Me..where he said that I'm Messi )
Well, I think this is a long debatable subject ) but however, there is one true:
Esculapio is really superior strong, proved many many times over and over!
Note also that as next... I hope to create more derivatives too and as far as
Possible I'll give a try, chance to the frequent Champion books.. good luck)
What I can say more, so far all Top 5 ranked books are belonging to SCCT!
And in same time means that world's strongest openings are on this 'Arena'

Current Champion: Esculapio X - My Congratulations to Angel Morano!
Note: Esculapio is created by Me, but all credits are going to Mr. Angel

UPDATE

Red Dragon Orig book is entered as well...and to be more clear:
This is the original version of Red Dragon, which is smallest in CS,
Just 256 KB (uncompressed)! released by Ian Hurnavich (in 2023),
Where my created Red Dragon Derivative: 592 KB (uncompressed)
And so far, my created Red-Dragon performs so good: 3rd 3788 Elo

And if going to ask: why later is included Red Dragon Original too?
1st of all, yesterday I found the original Red-Dragon in my archives..
So today, the idea is born to test and compare both books strength...
Moreover, I mean without trying...we will never know about, right?
Sure later we may check the influences vs Red Dragon Derivative too..

In other words,
I wonder much my book creation methods are effective or not?!
After all, all this 'mystery' will be solved soon as possible! in fact,
In older tours. my created trend books are proved to be not weak..
But what about in 2025? under these cond..it is as 1st time...

What I can add more, exception that
Their sizes are not exactly same, but as other difference,
My created Red-Dragon Der. version is up to 40 moves, where
Mr Hurnavich suggested his original one: up to 100 moves, so
Red-Dragon Orig is playing with suggested settings (up to 100)

Other question,
Why I prefer for my book creations e.g usually up to 40 moves?
Otherwise, mostly of the books sizes will pass over than 3 MB!
But this is also true that if your lines are superior strong..
Then it does not matter much, such as up to 40 or up to 100 etc
As clear reference, Esculapio plus OPTIMUS etc are proved over..
Since they come with book suggested settings: up to 40 moves

On other hand, sure here I refer for my created opening books,
Especially, up to moves 100, it is not so good idea for derivatives,
Because otherwise if deeper lines..we may see much more draws,
Because many of the books are played (each other) in older tours..
Sometimes even openings with up to 40 depth, may lead directly to
Draw positions..in this case, at least I noticed so so many times! and
I can't imagine..if derivative ones and to be played up to 100 moves..

348 of 1224 games finished.

By the way, as you may noticed too:
New derivative ones are entered as players too, such as
Cevdet's Dual, DON Hercules, HCAN, Hurnavich, OPTIMUS etc.

And is this all ? not of course, for example very soon,
Another micro one (655 KB): Rebel 04.01.2025 will be in,
Which is original (not my work), released by J. Noomen

Meanwhile,
Any guess? Which One will be as next Number One ?)

Good luck to all )

Breaking News - 10.03.2025:
Many strong entries.. but One of them managed to be Number One: DON..
And as we see in latest organized tours, actually rom past to the present:
DON book series (original or derivative) are subscribed to be Champs too..
HCAN performed so good as well..but not enough points to take the lead..
Sure as same words are going for both derivatives OPTIMUS, Hurnavich
On other hand, as shocking news is that Red Dragon original performed.
9 (nine) Elo worse than my created Red-Dragon derivative...interesting!
Normally Red-Dragon der is tuned to prefer only Red-Dragon orig's lines..
It seems (via my tuning methods, techniques) some books become stronger!
Note also that in next 2-3 days, I hope to create several new books more,
Where later, the ongoing competition is planning to be ended..By the way,
The total number books so far 120 (one hundred twenty) and all played in
Less than one week and moreover, mostly players are created by my side
In other words, via Online-Play: takes many months, here just a few days!

Current Champion: DON Hercules 4 - Congratulations to Vasid Chouhan!
Note: DON Hercules created by Me but all credits are going to Mr Vasid

Breaking News - 11.03.2025:
The ongoing competition is ended, many thanks and congrats to all players!
About latest update, as you may see too, I realized to create and test more..
And no BIG surprise that all current 'pocket fighters' are performed not bad !
Some notes about my non-hand tuned deep lines: SCCT 23-24 is based on
Top eng games, played by Balsa, Unique openings during 2023-2024 years,
Where SCCT 22-24w = Balsa and Unique too, but on only 2022-2024's wins
Note also I picked games, played in Book Tours..I mean not Eng Tours wins,
Otherwise, TONS of wins will be... then very likely will pass size rule (3 MB),
CEDR is also non-hand tuned...which is based on CEDR's strong openings!
Yes..mentioned above non hand-tuned books can be used as good indicator
About which well hand tuned..I mean here for TREND lines..before this tour!
To be more clear, in this tourney: non of my created ones are hand tuned etc.
Btw, what we noticed also here, via organizing current Online Like Book CS?
Many of the Online players strength are not so correct...exc. 'cherry picking'
Plus as other influence, processor speed diff. have BIG impact over strength..
In short: a complete mess issue about to see the strongest Online players..!
Actually there is always solution...but for this, similar serious tours required..
Otherwise..e.g without running this CS...we would not know about all, right?.
Yes under SCCT cond. is harder but much clear...usually 'best' ones on Top:
DON, Esculapio, HCAN, Skynet, Btw, OrgZ's points are impressive as well )
Even 2023's oldies: Everest, Unicornio, Red-Dragon Der..are still great too!
On other hand, IA-Horus with best points on Lichess but here far way to be!
Sure as same words going for Spiritofthenewyear, caissa-ai, LeelaMultiPoss..
Or other strange Online stats, some produced even close to 10-15% draws
But all experienced testers are aware that under serious and more fair cond.
The draws are much higher e.g via less drawish engine (Raubfish SC) 88%,
Or playing under optimal cond. (MP, Ponder ON, slower TC ) is almost 99%
Sure I refer for overall draws but with individuals, these draw stats may vary,
But no much ways to see less than 70% exc. via weak engines / openings!
At least for nowadays it seems to be so..maybe in future, we will see better
Engines, where may appear less draw ratio.. but till to this date I think that
We have to work harder and smarter!..sure this is other question, anyhow
I'm pretty sure also that many of Online players think such as they are best..
But for this, I'm announcing again: Prove it! Don't be afraid, Come and Win )
Here is much more fair, a friendly place, full of fun, via many strong players..
As reference, almost all Top 20's ranks... belong to frequent SCCT authors!
And someones may say also as: my book is doing better as MP + Blitz etc.
Good.. but just in that case...any fools' book will do better...) And moreover,
It's almost impossible to see wins, but before NNUE my tours were MP, Blitz
But in latest years, most tours played: 1 Core, Bullet and as usual I say over:
What is the point of using BIG umbrella, when no MUCH rain on the horizon!
And as final words, the ones, who cheats can't fool anyone but themselves!
Thank you for taking time to read, for showing interest, enjoy every moment!

Online Like's Champion: DON Hercules - My Congratulations to Vasid Chouhan!
