Score and cost of every ranked setting

The chart needs JavaScript. The setting cards hold this model's results, and Charts compares every model.

Each setting is placed by its published score and its generation cost per player program, the mean over the game cells including repairs and failed attempts. Higher is better; further left costs less (logarithmic axis, with recorded $0 in its own lane). Filled marks are compared; hollow marks are not (the reason is in the table). The line marks the best value across ranked reasoning settings: no ranked setting with complete cost evidence scores at least as high for the same or less. It includes models without an Overall rank, so it can differ from the line on Charts. Costs mix provider-reported charges and list-price estimates; differences in score points are not tested for significance.

Scores by game

  • Shogi2 of 2 failed0.0
  • Xiangqi2 of 2 failed0.0

  • Game of the Amazons1 of 1 failed0.0
  • Tumbleweed1 of 2 failed37.2

Each game counts every generation attempt, a failed one as 0 (“1 of 2 failed” marks games with failed attempts). Scores are relative within each game, across the included settings; they do not compare game difficulty.

What this result shows

Strongest included setting: Provider default (reasoning enabled) (18.6).

Across included settings, the highest game score is Go (38.5); the lowest is 0.0, shared by 6 games. Each game counts every generation attempt, a failed one as 0. These are relative scores within each game, not direct comparisons of difficulty.

Match evidence measures these retained programs. It does not establish how a fresh generation will perform. Independent-generation variation is not estimated in this release.

Generation evidence

  • Reasoning disabled: 1 contributing player programs across 1 games
  • Provider default (reasoning enabled): 1 contributing player programs across 1 games

Counts describe contributing programs, not independent replications: repairs and resends are not new independent samples. Independent-generation lineage is not retained.

Each row covers all the model's programs in one game and setting. Strength and raw rating are attempt-weighted means; under them, each program's score and the lowest and highest rating describe the programs (not a confidence interval). The combined record adds up their matches: evidence volume, not strength.

Failures and budgets

10 model-code generation failures; 4 provider/infrastructure failures excluded from the generation denominator. Runtime player faults are separate: 0 recorded one-sided faults across contributing program rows. A crash, an illegal move, or a timeout repeated by a later quiet replay, pinned on one program, also counts as that program's loss in its match record; other faults are left out of rating evidence.

Repair/resend outcomes and available costs are included. Exact retry ceilings and execution budgets are not retained in this result set; see the methodology for the public policy. Do not infer a measured setting from a current provider catalog.

How cost is measured

Comparison cost gives equal weight to each model, game, and reasoning-setting combination. Recorded generation attempts include repairs and resends when cost evidence is available; runtime compute and service operation are excluded. Cost and output-token counts use separate telemetry denominators. A list-price estimate is not actual expenditure; mixed evidence is not a uniform standard-price comparison.
