On October 20/21 2018 rofChade participated at the 12th ACCA World Computer Rapid Chess Championships, and finished 1st together with Komodo and Chiron. After 2 tie breaks, Komodo won the tournament, while rofChade finished 3th.
The participating rofChade version was a preliminary version with first experimental evaluation elements.
This great result was not without luck. The game against Erdo ended in an easy win because of a GUI problem of Erdo.
The game against Komodo seemed to end in a draw (which would have been great already…) but suddenly Komodo lost because of an internet problem.
