Nakshatra rating on FICS

www.ficsgames.com tracks the games played on FICS. Currently Nakshatra is doing quite well. The below image depicts rating variation over the last 1000 games played by Nakshatra. More stats can be seen here.



The latest rise above 2100 level is a milestone achieved by my latest v0.2 which contained a lot of performance improvements over previous versions. There are a lot more improvements to be done. Some very popular methods such as end game table bases, a big opening book, etc can easily push the rating above 2300 I believe.

  1. I recently saw that Nakshatra rating is rising!

    Congrats!

    Me too ( Nettogrof) , I think that a big opening book and endgame tablebase will improve a lot your engine.

    If you have to choose, I suggest to do endgame tablebase first but in my opinion it's the part of the game where nakshatra have more difficulties. Players with 2100+ of rating usually know to play well in endgame.

    Continue you're good work, and by the way, I have added a link to your blog in the link section of Suicidechess.ca
