Your feeling is probably right.  My latest post of Crafty 18.12 vs CM8K is only
12 games.  There is no reason to conclude a different version slightly stronger
than Crafty 18.12 would be stronger than "The King".  I have now played 70 games
using Crafty 18.12 vs various programs.  This version is now 49 ELO points below
the rating of Crafty 18.10 in my database.  The performance vs CM8K is it's best
performance so far vs other programs.  This is surely due to the small sample
rate.  Even 70 games is not enough to be sure but the trend is that Crafty
18.12(K7) is weaker than Crafty 18.10.  I also only have 129 games of Crafty
18.10.  That is why I asked for other peoples experience (if any).
