Scores by game
What this result shows
Strongest included setting: High (63.1).
Across included settings, the highest game score is Tumbleweed (86.1); the lowest is Shogi (38.8). 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.

Counts describe contributing programs, not independent replications: repairs and resends are not new independent samples. Independent-generation lineage is not retained; the per-game counts below keep unique code identities separate from admitted generation runs.

Program ranges describe the retained competitors on this release scale, not a statistical estimate of a fresh generation.
Failures and budgets
0 model-code generation failures; 0 provider/infrastructure failures excluded from the generation denominator. Runtime player faults are separate: 1 recorded one-sided faults across contributing program rows. A crash or illegal move pinned on one program also counts as that program's loss in its match record; other faults, such as timeouts, 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.
