This is the one-hundred eighty seventh round of a chessbot series. We have 2 Bots competing. We will do one game a day until there is just 1 player left. These will be uploaded at around 9PM EST Daily. Also, the bottom 2 players that aren't tied with people outside of the bottom 2 will be eliminated.

Extra feature: Predict the result of the next game! At the end of posts put this point I will show the 2 players for the next game so that you can vote on who you think will win by using the 1-0, 1/2-1/2 or 0-1 emojis! The people with the most points and people with the most accurate votes (people with 5 or higher votes will be prioritized and people with less will get a (?) next to the accuracy,) (if there is a tie if accuracy, the person with the most points is prioritized and the other way around). will be put on a leaderboard. The full list will be on the spreadsheet linked below. I will be voting too so you can see if you are beating me or not! (if you vote multiple times, only your first vote will be counted.)

1st: @Plankhorn (83.33%)

I have to introduce a new rule just for this chess series. The 100 move rule. If both sides have been playing for 100 moves and neither side has won, drew, or lost, the game is automatically a draw. This is to prevent games taking too long.

Swarm (Plays White): Goes as close to the opponents pieces as possible.

Median (Plays Black): Gets the moves evals, and then picks the move in which its eval is the median.

Puzzles:

White to play, M1, Difficulty 4/10

White to play, M1, Difficulty 1/10

White to play, Draw, Difficulty 9/10

The next game will be The Long Run vs ChatGPT. Let me explain what both of the bots are.

The Long Run (Plays White): Pushes pawns and captures as much as possible.

ChatGPT (Plays Black): I ask ChatGPT what to play, and then I play that. It CAN make illegal moves.

Comment 1-0 if you think Swarm will win, 1/2-1/2 if you think Swarm and Median will draw, and 0-1 if you think Median will win.
