7 eras of SSCAIT champions

The player with the highest rating on each day I’ll call the “champion” of the day. It turns out that the SSCAIT daily champions change frequently. I calculated all the daily champions and manually divided the time period into eras that looked to me to have different sets of champions.

dates		champions
2013 12 25	2015 02 16	usually ICELab, sometimes Tomas Vajda (XIMP)
2015 02 17	2015 02 25	Tomas Vajda and Dave Churchill (UAlbertaBot)
2015 02 26	2015 06 17	mostly tscmoo, sometimes Tomas Vajda or ICELab
2015 06 21	2015 11 19	largely tscmooz, sometimes Tomas Vajda or ICELab, occasionally Dave Churchill or Florian Richoux (AIUR), 3 days of Sijia Xu (Overkill)
2015 11 20	2016 02 08	Marian Devecka (Killerbot), 2 days of tscmooz
2016 02 09	2016 08 17	mostly Marian Devecka, sometimes tscmoop, 4 days of Iron
2016 08 18	2016 09 26	mostly Krasi0, sometimes Marian Devecka

So the longest "ruling dictator" has been ICElab. Interesting. ^^

I think that 2012 - 2015 was a period of something like a BW AI winter. That would explain why just two bots used to dominate for so long. 2016 OTOH has been rife with activity and strength increase. Something like a Renaissance. Let's hope the SSCAIT 2017 competition will be very strong (as in providing tough and exciting games) and 2017 in itself would be at least as fertile as 2016 :)
