Who has beaten Stockfish 8? Please post the games so we could share and discuss
Where can I download Stockfish 8? Is it in beta?
On a different note, I don't think any non-engine has won against Stockfish 6 or 7 at full strength.

I beat it once out of the 150+ times I played it without using an engine. http://en.lichess.org/XWvNYV6M I noticed that it played a bad line by sacing a pawn, and just kept playing games until I didn't blunder and entered the ending a pawn up.
@Chessatom Stockfish is the program. 8 is just a number they assign it here. It means nothing to anyone not from lichess. In terms of the rating, it is just a version of stockfish that has been programmed to make bad moves occasionally so that it only plays at a 2500 level instead of the 3000 level that the program can play at without the cap. Because it's only 2500, quite a few people have beaten it. Some masters even have positive records against it.
One thing I did notice is that it didn't use its time very well, so you'd be better off playing classical games than you would be playing blitz or bullet games.

I have not

machine has a lot of stamina, I think with my best game I can
draw (and some luck) but win no clue, besides this is lichess stockfish
which is lower rating
anyway Im proud of my game, I was thinking today
of proposing a challengue against stockfish 8 to see who beats it with less odds in classical time like a pawn, knight rook or queen
It does not matter, just think how much material
u need to win the game
one thing is certain however although u may lose against
stockfish it challengues ur brain and u improve ur chess understanding faster than if u play 1300 players
which is what I usually do because frankly if u want to play
good chess u gotta do a lot of effort I dont mind once a weak, or so but I prefer to chill out when I play
there is also the psychology problem is almost beating a wall
so stronger players than me (I think I am about a class A player) they also have to be very tough minded
if they want to beat stockfish or have a slight chance to make a good game
thats why my recommendation is to play with odds.

A international master or grand master can beat Stockfish level 8 on a regular basis or get good results anyway, though the Stockfish at 3000 rating is almost unplayable. Personally level 6 is as far as I can go with any chance of drawing or winning.
As I am sure many have found it is a great source of practice .

This is my best game vs Stockfish 8 AI. I played a Little bit better than stockfish but couldn´t find a win.

NOTE: Stockfish 8 AI CAN Play on 2800 Level Minimum here. The Thing is, it is only 2500 rated because sometimes it does weakening moves, but sometimes NOT.

I'd be willing to take the challenge. ;)
But which conditions? Can it be a correspondence game or does it have to be a "live" game?
