This is really surprising, Junior 1st, The King last! although only
7 games have been played. I hope the King 3.23 SKR will do much better
in the next games.
The book of SKR (remis) is write protected like all the other engines,
but also the weights of remis.ctg has been reset. Have you reset also
the weights of others books? Because if these books have been used
in previous games then there is some unfair additional knowledge against
The King and in favour of the other engines.

I downloaded the games for rounds 1-7 just now, but it seems you haven't
add the rounds 5+6+7.
