Bad Chess Bots #222

This is the two-hundred twenty second 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 every other day. 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.)

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.

Spread (Plays White): Moves as far from its own king as possible.

Twin (Plays Black): Uses the same strategy as its opponent.

The next game will be Best Popular vs Picture Perfect. Let me explain what both of the bots are.

Best Popular (Plays White): Gets the lichess database, finds the position, and picks the move with the highest win rate for itself.

Picture Perfect (Plays Black): Gets a random ASCII letter, (this time, 4), maps it on the board, and then only moves on those squares.

Comment 1-0 if you think Best Popular will win, 1/2-1/2 if you think Best Popular and Picture Perfect will draw, and 0-1 if you think Picture Perfect will win.
