The Chess Engine Rating List is located at: https://chessnerd.net/cerl.txt and is really just an excuse to use all the engines in my UCI folder. In turn, running them at hyper-fast speeds serves to cut down on draws, and gives enough results that it's possible to do the list at all, even with just two computers. Having this many games per tournament is meant to reduce the error rate.

I am taking this direction too, with this latest tournament especially. The question is: aren't the engines prone to make mistakes with such a short time? I've never used those chess programs, but Stockfish makes jumps from 0.00 to kinda -1.26 sometimes with that short time, single-cored especially.

Yes. To be honest, this is the weak link in the chain. My hope is that it lowers the playing field in a consistent way, but that might be wishful thinking. I think to do it right, with proper time controls, it would take hundreds of people.

I'm not understanding... Are you telling that you wish the engines turn weaker?

I think that there is an ideal TC (perhaps one hour per game) that allows the engines to think as much as they need to, and nobody can really test at that speed, because it's too slow. So everything is a compromise, in my opinion. You would need hundreds of people to contribute test results if you wanted a rating list based on hour-long games.

What I was meant was, I accept that testing at 1s+0.1s is going to introduce mistakes, but it still works as long as the drop in performance is the same for every engine. So my hope is that if the playing field has to be made lesser, it can at least be so consistently.

Here is the latest tournament. The results table is pretty big for the code block, but it was a nice bunch of numbers. The only two problems were that Avalanche played an illegal move in one game, and Altair timed out eleven times. I'm not sure how long it took, but as you can see, with 1s+0.1s it's possible to run a big tournament with a proper number of games (to reduce the margin of error) and not have to wait a week.I wish I could take all the CERL games from back when I was also using this TC and plug them into the list, but when I tried that, Berserk 11, I think, ended up at the top with something like 3900. :-)

Re: CERL Games

Here's the latest tournament, though it may not be of any value. I wanted to create a small database for the Bongcloud opening, so I did. Not sure how many doubles are in here. I probably won't use it for the CERL, because some of these engines inexplicably play this opening rather well.
