About Ipman book,
Currently is 9th, as a new incomer really good !

About TCEC book,
Its performance is now at 18th place, not bad too ...

Once more I'd like to mention that,
Neutral openings have no chances to be rated at one of the Top places, due to various openings...
Plus especially after 8 moves: the openings suffer...they are not optimized for such competitions !

But however very soon,
I plan to run a new book tournament, which will be based on openings up to 8 moves
Let's see which short openings are the strongest for computer chess !)

Btw, so far Deep Junior 8's performance (as I expected) is at around 2850 Elo

And once more I noticed that,
SCCT Elo calculations almost perfectly suit to GMs Elo points !)

And in case of GMs participations under the current SCCT conditions,
Probably Top GMs will be rated at similar Elo points as Deep Junior 8

Note also that finely Deep Junior 8 managed to win (against SSDF) !!

I checked that played game, impressive...well-done to Junior team...!
But of course SSDF lost due to weak opening )!
To be honest, I am not much surprised that a such opening is coming from SSDF )
Because the old dated own books have much more holes than latest used decent books...

Also Deep Junior has 3 draws (against Sky-Panda, Hurricane3E, Rodent)
And 92 defeats...in other words, Deep Junior's performance so far: 1 win, 3 draws, 92 losses
