Uno

Well, looks like the new approach worked! First place, and by a pretty impressive margin! 52 elo and 8% above the next closest book.

Thanks everyone for all the PM's, comments and emails, I appreciate it.

I know everyone is interested in using the book, and I absolutely promise to make it public. It's just a matter of when. I'd like to get in one more tournament before making it public (SCCT?!) and we have a big holiday coming up here in the US.

As soon as I decide to make it public, I will post it on a few forums, as well as on this website.

Uptown 2.0

Uptown 2.0 is finally out. It is completely re-written based on 100% games played on my hardware. No external games from any source were used or imported!

It takes a very unique approach to opening moves. I haven't seen any book do anything similar, and in my testing it seems to be working very well. Uptown 2.0 has been entered in the latest Pioner tournament, so hopefully we should find out just how successful this strategy is!
