For some strange reasons the tournament book was ON but normal book was "grey"=disabled. I was unable to enable the book by clicking on BOOK OPENING in the CFG menue. I have no idea WHY clicking was impossible. The book had no read.only attributes on and also the file does not looked corrupted. I have installed from the cd again and still the problem was there. Only deleting the rebel.cfg made it work again. So maybe for whatever reason the rebel.cfg file was corrupted so that normal book was off.. So what now ? Shall I repeat the game ?!?!? What do you suppose Moritz / Ed ?! You can consider about this. I will try to repeat the game without telling you about the result. And then you can decide if the game with accurate setting or the somehow corrupted setting. It looks when the result changes I would have to make the pairings for round 5 again ?!? Comments please...
