This is what I doubted. That two crafty vesions engines out of 29
would 2 out of 2, finish 1 and 2. Especially over so few games each.

Currently 17.14 and 17.11 are in 19th and 21st place but have only
played 7 games each.

One difference however, is that although use tablebases was unticked,
all the versions seem to be using them.
