On the PlayChess server some accounts brag with Eman. Khalid Omar is reported to have said that "the best engine on the server is Eman." But I don't know if he actually said that. For me, these statements were the reason why I wanted to test my engines against Eman (I usually test against Stockfish developers).

In the first match of my new engine Little Beast 12.1 (new version of my well-known Beast Engine) against Eman 9.80, Eman lost 100 games match with 5 to 8 (87 draws).

The second match must be seen as an experiment, because here an analysis engine (Beast for Analysis) plays against Eman 9.80. That's why I increased the level to 10 minutes. That's with 5400 kns per engine, still significantly slower than if I played on the server at level 5 minutes with Ryzen 3900X. To my surprise, Eman 9.80 is at -2 after 12 games. The games are played with default settings, Ponder ON, 3456men Syzygy, Hash 1 GB, and short variants with color swap. Does a No. 1 engine play like this?

If Khalid Omar would like to test against my engine (I don't cheat), he can contact me on my homepage (under Contact). I won't give any more of my engines to other people, that's now ended.

This morning I implemented some new Stockfish patches in Little Beast (called now Little Beast 12.2). In a quick test of 24 games under the same conditions as the first test, Eman 9.80 losed again:

There were 8 new Stockfish patches yesterday. I think Eman will get an update soon too. Let's look forward to it!

Server Story:
I don't normally test against Eman but against Stockfish developer versions (I'll do the same in the future, Stockfish dev seems stronger). I've never run a test like this against Eman before. Now I have to do this because the author of Eman supposedly claimed that Eman is the best engine on the server. Who doesn't want to test against the best engine? There are 3 accounts on the PlayChess server that quoted the Eman author “best engine” every day in the chat. Everyone who plays there had to read this every day. I then wrote back, “come on and beat me.” But then suddenly there was silence. None of them wanted to accept my challenge, even though they have stronger hardware (72 threads). So I had no choice but to test it myself, see games above. If you want, you are welcome to challenge me, I am ready to play against the Eman disciples on the server too.

One more thing: Some of these Eman disciples pretend to be women who come from Sweden. They deceived me in the chat on InfinityChess with the same account names, I remember a discussion. A few days ago on PlayChess, one of these supposed "women" accidentally chose the wrong channel and accidentally wrote to me - in Polish or Slovak. Nothing women from Sweden! During the last discussion on PlayChess I wrote this to everyone so that everyone knows that these people like to deceive other people. As evidence, I copied some sentences that they wrote in Slavic into the general chat. Then there was just laughter. When such people who want to deceive others pretend to be serious beta testers, what can you say?

I have noticed that mr Khalid has released Eman 9.90 in the Lichess server
