*Currently Working on Database for 9x9 testing new experiments, achieving my Senior International Master Title in Chess, and playing US Chess Correspondence Championship*
If you wish to play a game please be unranked.
This User Account uses Katago (previously CrazyStone and Zen 7) + Scholar Database with human intervention, Scholar Database is a large opening database of 1,900,000+ (2,500-5,000 per day) moves from various sources (CrazyStone, MinusGo,Kata-bot, Zen 7 games and analyse, CGOS, OGS and humans 7D+ Goquest) with score evaluations added into an SGF file with Multigo manually imputed. The project started 9 years ago and has reached 2550 rated 8 Dan strength on GoQuest in February 2018. The project was inspired based on how WZebra did its database for Othello and Brainfish for Chess.
The current goal is to create a database with close to optimal play for some lines leading to perfect play.
The Current Version (October 2021 Update) is faster as I am adding additional new theory by hand on each of my computer and analysing scores on 1 thread (2-4 visits per second) to reduce weaknesses, and help solve the game faster.
Progress August 31st 2022
Total Evaluated positions: 848,166
Total Draws positions: 384,781 (updated August 31st)
Total Wins and Losses positions: Wins 72,675 Losses 73,669
Total Transpositions: 17,091 (Complete main 3-4 move Rotations and 5 move Draw lines, Completed 1 g7 d4 transpositions for 5 moves)
Total Positions: 2,045,149
The Graph above show Scholar's progression over played games from GoQuest most of the early data is a rough estimate due to not recording the data early on, also didn't add the earliest games as it makes the latest game results added on the graph look to have little to no fluctuation. I also decided to not add a graph of the increased number of positions of the program's new evaluates in the opening book after each game as it gets quite cumbersome to add that data.
I also play Chess for ICCF currently International Master rated 2468 ranked 20th in the USA (International Correspondence Chess Federation) https://www.iccf.com/player?id=514877
Picture above is the inspiration of the project.
