These results are based on the newest map generator, not the slightly older one I had been using, so they aren’t directly comparable to previous results. #1 bocsimacko thrives on the new maps and scores much better. Other bots vary, but tend to be a little better tuned for the new maps too. I guess everybody else knew, I was left behind all alone. The improvements in 4.3 more than make up for the difference overall, though.
Some of the opponent names here still do not match the correct names on the official site. Sorry.
500 games each against old versions. The draw rate is strikingly low for such similar programs.

400 games each against 24 opponents, 9600 games total. There are no close outcomes; all matches come out with a winner. Again, the draw rate is strikingly low. In a drawn position, this version thrashes around for a win—with more success than failure, since it’s stronger than most opponents.

400 games each by the previous version, oddshrimp4.2, against the top opponents, using the new map generator. Results are a lot worse for oddshrimp than with the old map generator.

400 games each by oddshrimp4.3 against the top opponents, using the older map generator. The results say that I have not so much tuned oddshrimp4.3 for the new maps as improved it in general. The higher draw rate in this table also shows that the low draw rates above are due to the maps—a sign that the new map generator is better.
