yes some BOTS are so strong that they will come first in all tournament and not let a single play come first

Lichess should create some tournaments only for BOTs, I just want to test the strength of my BOT -- @SBCHESS_BOT.

all engines dont run on the same computer specs.

Yeah, I agree.

Lichess should keep tournaments for self-working BOTS

We must try to outwit bots.

You can join teams that conduct tournaments for bots to compete.
