Three other nonequilibrium free energy methods participated for the cyclodextrin challenge -Noneq/Alchemy/CGENFF, Noneq/Alchemy/consensus, and Noneq/Alchemy/GAFF. All three methods used the TIP3P water model, included NaCl ions at 25mM, and considered multiple binding poses (primary and secondary orientation) and free energies reported as Boltzmann weighted averages across these poses. These methods differed only by force field -CGENFF (Noneq/Alchemy/CGENFF) or GAFF (Noneq/Alchemy/ GAFF). The third submission, Noneq/Alchemy/consensus, gives "consensus" results obtained by averaging across both force fields.
