Initially, when you reported the problem, I thought it had something to do with
the size of the learn file. After reproducing the problem myself with less than
ten games it became apparent that it was a bug. Apparently the learning had
become too complicated in accounting for different GUIs and tournament forms and
therefore malfunctioned. However, there's hope that the bug will be fixed very
soon.
