Subject: Only a Genious can win at GetClub Chess.
|
Today I think the time has come to Celebrate the best games played by GetClub Chess. I saw last 10 games all of them won by GetClub Except one game where a person was able to draw rest all were won by Beginner Level. Now even Help Bot will find it difficult to win the Beginner Level. Play Chess at: http://www.GetClub.com/Chess.html Only those using Computer to analyze will be able to win. I think there may be 4-5 players who can still beat the Beginner Level, But they have to think longer just like they play in a serious game. So Beginner will play in 5-10 seconds, And you have to think 40-60 seconds per move then only you may win. And for Easy & Normal Level you will never be able to win unless you use Computer help or are a real Genious. Here is the updated ratings to each level I give These are the min rating I can give, I have given -100 to each Level so that no one blame me that rating is wrong. Beginner: 5-10 seconds/move [2000 Rating] Easy: 20-40 seconds/move [2100 Rating] Normal: 1-2 min/move [2200 Rating] Master: 5-10 min/move [2300 Rating] So now the Master Level will play like a 2300+ rated Player. Is there any 2300+ Rated player on this Group. Bye Sanny Play Chess at: http://www.GetClub.com/Chess.html

Little's book can be very easily turned off. I might try that given time, when I am in a mood to be annoyed by Sanny's website. Of course, in the trial game published above, Sanny's opening moves were rather odd and Little went out of book in just a few moves. > Personally, I am amazed at the increase > in speed from yesteryear Certainly the program now seems to respect advertised times to a much better degree, and indeed plays far better than before, if still quite short of "genious".

In order to make a fairer comparison, or if you prefer, for Sanny's contraption not to get massacred before its opponent gets beyond its openings book, can the book simply be disabled? The GetClub program's book is a bit of a joke, so the eval. function starts off with horrible positions in nine out of ten games. > > `Doctor, it hurts every time I go to Sanny's website.' > > `Well don't do that, then.' > > Yes, but the things we do in the pursuit of knowledge ...... In the pursuit of ...something..., I have noticed that Sanny's program has gotten a whole lot tougher recently; however, it is still a duffer in the openings and endgame. Putting an estimated USCF-rating on such a mess is quite a difficult task; how many human players do you know who botch the openings, hide their King in a corner in the endgame, yet are dangerous tacticians in some circumstances? Personally, I am amazed at the increase in speed from yesteryear; the display now indicates a search depth in the teens, and just yesterday, it "resigned" against me after actually seeing a mate-in-three coming (albeit on the Master level). -- help bot

Play a few games 4/5 Then only we can find real rating og GetClub Chess. It is not easy to tell rating based on single game. Play Chess at: http://www.GetClub.com/Chess.html Yesterday the GetClub Game was developed as two bugs were found. So now it will play much improved game, and will be difficult to win. Incase you still find any wrong move tell me So that I remove that. Bye Sanny Play Chess at: http://www.GetClub.com/Chess.html

Yesterday 2 bugs were removed So now GetClub Chess will play much better. And I think Beginner is just 2000 Rated. To know exact Rating of Beginner Play 5 Games and See who wins the most games out of 5 Games. Play Chess at: http://www.GetClub.com/Chess.html Chess Rating can not be dictacted by just 1/2 games. Now GetClub program plays fairly well. And still there is hope of improvement. If you find any wrong move tell me so that it do not do that mistake again.

Again, correct. My only data point here (of my own) is play on FICS, on an even older computer (450 Mhz) where at a 5/0 time limit Little managed about a 2000 FICS rating over a series of about 100 games. Translated to 10/0 time limit on a 750 Mhz computer --- who knows? And its an FICS blitz number in any case. > In short, it's impossible to say anything about how well Little should > do against Sanny's engine without a whole lot more information. That is true for a prediction in advance.

Nah.

Here is a game I played out on GetClub. GetClub was White at the 'beginner' level which Sanny calls 2000 rating. Black was the computer program "Little" (an offshoot of "Faile") with a small opening book, and set for a time limit of 10/0 (game in 10 minutes). The original author of Faile estimates its strength at something under 2200 on ICC, based on his testing on that site. So if Sanny is right this should be a pretty even match. Little is playing on an old 750 MHz Pentium running the latest Ubuntu Linux with system memory of 512MB and not much else going on except Firefox. By the way: the Linux binary for Little is just 30k in size. [Event "Game"] [Site "GetClub"] [Date "02/12/2008"] [Round "?"] [White "GetClub Beginner"] [Black "Little Computer"] [Result "0-1"] 1.Nf3 Nf6 2.Nc3 d5 3.Ne5 e6 4.d4 Bb4 5.Bg5 O-O 6.Qd3 Nbd7 7.Nf3 c5 8.e3 c4 9. Qd1 Qa5 10.Be2 Ne4 11.O-O Nxc3 12.bxc3 Bxc3 13.Rc1 Qxa2 14.h4 Bb2 15.Rb1 Nf6 16.Bxf6 gxf6 17.h5 Rd8 18.h6 a5 19.Nh2 f5 20.Nf3 Qa3 21.Kh1 Bc3 22.Ng5 f6 23.

What does that mean about GetClub Beginner rating? Whatever it is, it is not 2000. (To be fair, Little hardly seemed to play at the 2000 level either, though the 10/0 time limit caused it to rush its moves toward the end.) By the way, at the end of the game, GetClub didn't say it resigned, it just said "the game is over" and the board disappeared. I should now try the next level up on GetClub, but I can hardly stand it, with the terrible move interface, the annoying attempts at pop-up windows, the obnoxious sound effects, and the generally trashy appearance of the site. I am curious, where did the name GetClub ever come from?

There's no reason to expect an ICC rating of 2200 to mean anything when compared to Sanny's pulled-out-of-his-ass rating of 2000. Your phrasing is unclear but it sounds like the ICC rating of 2200 applies to Faile, not to Little. Is there any reason to expect Little to have a similar rating to Faile? Even if it does (or if the 2200 you quote is actually for Little), you'd only expect it to apply for games at the same time control and on similar hardware. In short, it's impossible to say anything about how well Little should do against Sanny's engine without a whole lot more information. > (To be fair, Little hardly seemed to play at the 2000 level either, > though the 10/0 time limit caused it to rush its moves toward the > end.)

But it is hard to compare an unexpected Queen sac' followed by an equally unexpected checkmate, to Sanny's game. I played over it and he had just left a piece /en prise/, which the program had just captured, and only /then/ did the program threaten an *obvious* mate-in-one, which of course Sanny did not see (just as he did not seem to see much of anything). In sum, he was beaten like a carrot. I've played the Caro-Kan many times at GetClub, but I have never responded to a stupid move like Mr. Tartakower's Q-d3 by flinging out ...e5 and then getting micro- miniaturized! Yet the fact that such a famous master has played this move is quite interesting; I have frequently noted that one of the problems with the GC program is its tendency for premature and stupid Queen moves like that one, and this demonstrates that Sanny's creation has now reached about the same level as the old masters. Just one small slip (...Nxe4??) and I'm sure his program would find the mate-in-two on the higher levels. -- help bot

Two points: 1. GetClub has not even been around for two years, which demonstrates just how little the self-appointed "experts" actually know. 2. What "strong players"? The only people winning consistently are the ones who are obviously using another chess program! The self-described strong players have vanished, like 1959 Cadillacs. > Doesn't matter Sanny if it is 1000 or 1500, that level is > simple **crushed** by anyone 2000+ rated. That's true; the commercial programs a few people use crush Sanny's program, and yes, they are all rated over 2000. I predict this will continue indefinitely. > Instead of hyping up your program, why don't you pay attention to why it > sucks? What I said! Just tonight, I played the Beginner level and although I had a helluva tough time with it, I lucked into a drawn King and pawn ending-- but the program ran away from the pawns and lost! And while many, many players are not strong enough to survive to this kind of ending, the few of us who are continue to get free wins, quite undeservedly, on account of this single, Titanic-sized weakness which I have pointed out *many* times. > Human players need to do this!

If Sanny were making zero headway, then perhaps he could be counseled to just hang it up; but in reality, the program is now way, way stronger than it used to be. The townspeople of rgc comfort themselves by repeating the mantra: "there is no wolf, the boy is making it up again", but then, they probably couldn't tell the difference between a real wolf and a sheepdog anyhow. > That's computer chess for you. Take the help bot challenge: log onto getclub.com, deliberately hang your Queen, and then report back on how you easily you managed to win in spite of giving the program such odds. If you're feeling a bit chicken, then only give it a Rook or a Knight. I predict you will lose like a fish. -- help bot P.S.: Don't use Rybka! Sheesh... .

I lost in 12 moves because I overlooked a Mate in 1. Most of the time I loose in 20 Moves. I am goiod player in my village. I am able to beat many children on the streets here. And also a few good friends. > But Sanny talks of all sorts of exhaulted things for it, which after 2 yea= rs > of 'even better now' pronouncemnts seem as dumb as the original, to actual= > strong players.

And you actually program the thing -= > and you suck - so how come you don't follow any advice, while making such Yesterday Beginner Level won 5/6 (5 out of 6) Games played by Players. And Easy was able to win 1/2 (1 out of 2) Games. So in total 6/8 (6 out of 8) were won by GetClub Chess. And the two which it lost were by very strong players. 1. Stinky Garlnoot and Bonsai. Both are very strong players. Play a few games and tell me if you find any weakness in the game and I will remove them.

And only a chess ignoramus would think it takes a genius to beat this mediocre-at-best program. --- It takes a genious to raise a program? Almost [every?] thing Sanny says is not true. If Sanny loses to a 12 move mate, then he is what? 800? 600? His program seems to be 1200 based on results against opponents, which considering his own rating is merely the extent of the program's opening book. But Sanny talks of all sorts of exhaulted things for it, which after 2 years of 'even better now' pronouncemnts seem as dumb as the original, to actual strong players. Doesn't matter Sanny if it is 1000 or 1500, that level is simple **crushed** by anyone 2000+ rated. Instead of hyping up your program, why don't you pay attention to why it sucks? Human players need to do this! And you actually program the thing - and you suck - so how come you don't follow any advice, while making such idiotic claims for it? After 2 years, you need to give up, since otherwise the only other thing you can do is extenhd the program with a massive opening book, and never lose before move 15 where the book ends - which is what st not-programmers do all the time, since most people don't know 10 moves of anything ;) That's computer chess for you.

Where are the players who said GetClub plays silly move??? Now see Beginner won 9/10 Games with Human Opponent. and only 1/10 was able to draw rest all were won by Beginner Level. Peter & Sanjay11 games were played with the help of Computer I remove those games from the list. Is there anyone who can still find any mistake in the GetClub Game? Just tell me if you still find any mistake in GetClubs game play. Bye Sanny Play Chess at:http://www.GetClub.com/Chess.html
