Hi, I think some mc bots play small margin games to the end now. Humans like that. Before one of the bots resigned....
Sometimes there is a weight of the margin in the evaluation: this leads to winning with higher margin than 0.5. This is probably again to be nice to humans and not playing too bad moves at the end. Dynamic komi has a simelar effect.
