I don't understand. If I add Leela's points in the cross table I get 7 points instead of 8...

Two games regarded as draw on cross table were decided as win for Lco. ( One was vs Gull where Gull freeze on TB hit and ? one game Lc0 won but there was connection problem.)
Details are in Lczero blog.

Speaking of TBhits, I just watched the endgame of Vajolet vs. Fritz and no tbhits were reported for either.

Hi Marco-
We're using Vajolet 2.6 bmi2

Syzygy is configured correctly for our system
Arena issues the correct command:

2018-09-03 22:27:18.257-->2:setoption name SyzygyPath value C:\syzygy

But it appears they're not loading properly
I PM'd you with arena.debug info

Please contact me privately with your email for the full debug file, or more info.
Regards,
Norm

Shredder 13 - is it just the commercial version? Seems to be doing a bit too well...
