ADRL stands for - Anti Draw Rating List.

Less draws between top engines.

Using the challenging TCEC positions composed by Jeroen Noomen and GM Matthew Sadler where there is always something to play for.

  14 rofChade-3.1 : 3421.2 10.0 210.0 520 40 --- 80 260 180 50

   Total Games : 3640
   White Wins : 1569 (43.1%)
   Black Wins : 207 (5.7%)
   Draws : 1864 (51.2%)

Remarks

1. Playing robin rounds only, meaning every engine plays against every engine.

2. Draw rate dropped to 51.2%

3. More games will be played but as I have noticed not much has changed after 150 games each.

4. Stockfish 16 massively profited, the elo difference with number two is 192 elo. As for a wild guess, Stockfish has a much bigger net based on more than 100 billion positions, see here.

5. Within a couple of days I will start a second ADRL based on short time control 40/120 and it is expected the elo gap between Stockfish and its runner-up will shrink.

6. By no means this is criticism on other rating lists who play from more balanced positions. The ADRL just sends a message there are alternatives to the ever increasing draw rate between top engines. Such as Stefan Pohl excellent initiative with his UHO rating list also does, much lower draw rates.

ADRL 40/120

. Advantage SF dropped from +192 to 154
. Draw rate increased from 51.2% to 56.7%

Unfortunately I could not finish the total of 3640 games due to a blip in the electricity net which shut off the PC. Cutechess -recovery did not work.

Is there a download link for Jeroen's opening suite, whether it's the one used by Ed or TCEC ? Smile

Thanks!

I believe (not entirely sure) the 300 positions come from strong human games, so when you are in the mood you can look them up with SCID (or so) to get the pgns. I wasn't Wink
