We operate five 384-core chess engines, hosted in Germany. They are run by Erdoğan Güneş, who, as operator of Komodo, won the World Computer Chess Championship four times (2016–2019) and the World Chess Software Championship three times (2016, 2018, 2019). Gerd Ordner, a system administrator by profession, supports us alongside his regular work.
