Hello, I read in Ed's thread a significant amount of work and testing activity; which is actually interesting and entertaining (thanks for sharing!). In addition, I am curious about any specific objective that may drive this testing? For example, I wonder if the results would, at some point, provide a rule of thumb for a typical Elo-loss, scaled according to the chosen odds? Cheers, Eric

Just experimenting... Re-using your final standings, I get:
Code:
Knight odds Pool Pool Pool Engine 2700 2500 2300 Komodo Dragon 2 55.6 73.8 89.9 Stockfish 14 28.5 47.2 70.1 3500 -856 -926 -959 avg: -914
Bishop odds Pool Pool Pool Engine 2700 2500 2300 Komodo Dragon 2 47.1 67.6 81.8 Stockfish 14 14.5 31.3 51.2 3500 -941 -1004 -1081 avg: -1009
Rook odds Pool Pool Pool Engine 2700 2500 2300 Komodo Dragon 2 25.5 52.9 73.2 Stockfish 14 18.0 41.1 64.0 3500 -1022 -1021 -1064 avg: -1036
Where I assumed 3500 Elo for the pool Komodo D2/SF14; then averaged the %performance from both and translated this into an Elo perf. I then displayed the Elo loss. I observe a not so bad consistency of the Elo loss across the opponents' pools. Queen odds would need KD2 and SF14 to face weaker pools, otherwise the performance is too low to translate into and Elo perf. Cheers...
