2024 World Computer Chess Championships Tournament Report
Introduction
First, many thanks to the tournament and ECAI (European Conference on Artificial Intelligence) sponsor: Google Deep Mind. They paid for 6 nights in a hotel and some of the competitors travel expenses.
Thanks to the ICGA (International Computer Games Association) for orgainizing it. I enjoyed it being held in conjunction with ECAI 2024. We had lots of scientists as spectators and many
had lots of questions.
Applications were received starting in March. Only 10 of the applicants met the qualification standards. The field dropped to 9 due to one withdrawing.
There were 3 tournaments: World Computer Chess Championships, World Computer Blitz Chess Championships
and the World Computer Software Chess Championships. Each tournament was 9 rounds, thus 27 rounds total in
5 days. The first two listed are unlimited hardware and the software championships was uniform hardware
provided by the local university. The first two days was the World Computer Software Chess Championships and
the last two were the unlimited hardware events: World Computer Chess Championships and World Computer Blitz Chess Championships interleaved with each other.
All three tournaments use the traditional methodology from 1974 when computers were not mobile and
could be connected to each other. Watch this video of the blitz chess match between Ares and GridChess/Fritz to see how it is done.

Overview
The competition was quite strong with all the programs rated over 3000 and 5 were world champions. The world's
strongest human is Magnus Carlsen rated at 2831 as of 30/10/2024. A 200 point rating
gap suggests that Magnus could possibly win 1 out of 4 games with the weakest entrant. While
the strongest programs with their extreme hardware configurations are well over 3600 giving
Magnus at best a 2% chance of winning a game.
I tuned Ares for longer time controls such as the traditional G/105+15, but venue
time contraints limited the software championships and the main event to G/30+10. So, Ares
had to average about 40 seconds per move instead of 2 minutes per move.
Ares seemed to be the wildcard program in the group with some critical results
knocking programs out of playoffs. The first was in the World Computer Chess
Software Championships. Going into the last round (round 9), there was a four way tie
for first Ares drew against Raptor with only 47 seconds left on Ares' clock knocking
Raptor out of the playoffs.
The second was in World Computer Chess Championships (unlimited hardware) where Ares
playing with the black pieces drew former world champion Fritz running on a 704 CPU
grid. Due to some issues porting my MPI implementation from LINUX to Windows 11, Ares
ran on one CPU.
Ares finished 8th in each of the 3 tournaments. While I got over most of the jet lag and
allergy issues by the third day. There were some lingering opening book issues. When the opening
book wasn't an issue, Ares performed quite well as in the games with Raptor, GridChess/Fritz, Tornado
and Tech 4.
Overall, Ares performed well. I noticed a few moves in some of the games that suggest there might
be some bugs. If printed out in paperback form, Ares' code is between 550 and 600 pages. So, it could
take some time to find the bugs. For those interested in how Stockfish performed, it tied for 3rd in the
software championships (uniform hardware) and finished 6th in the other two tournaments. It really isn't
the best program in the world. It is just one of the top programs for personal computers and cell phones.

Day 1: Saturday October 19, 2024
The first day of the 2024 World Computer Software Chess Championships.
all participants were given a Intel i5-14400 with 16GB RAM but no special GPU provided.
The event was held at University of Santiago de Compostela instead of the main venue, because
the University supplied the hardware for all the competitors in this particular event.
The supplied hardware was 4x slower on NPS (nodes per second) or PPS (positions per second).
Ares had some drawable games, but ran into time trouble due to me suffering from jet lag and
allergies. Here are the games from the first day. Also, there were some weaker opening book lines
that didn't get tuned or pruned. That is certainly one of the disadvantages of not having a team.

Day 2: Sunday October 20, 2024
The second day of the 2024 World Computer Software Chess Championships. I had some level of sleep
the night before, thus less jet lag, but still some. Later in the day, I was more alert and this
proved critical in the last game vs Raptor.

Day 3: Monday October 21, 2024
The first day of the 2024 World Computer Chess Championships and the World Computer Blitz Chess Championships.
The tournaments were delayed by 2 hours due to the venue not supplying sufficiently working WIFI. Thus, they
put in wired internet for us. Several of the programs needed remote access to much larger computers:
the Gridchess/Fritz team used 704 processors remotely and Johnny used over 4000 processors on a remote machine.
There were 5 World Computer Chess Champions in these tournaments: Johnny, Fritz, Stoofvlees, Erdo and Rofchade. I say
Erdo, because Erdogan Gunes has been the operator for many chess programs in this event over the last 2 decades. Not
only is he a good operator (fast and accurate hands), but he creates excellent opening books for the programs he operates.
Some of the competitors in this year's events had books created by him.
