Wow John ... I know I'm offensive, but Sheeesh!!!

The problem happens with round-robin tournaments that have been adjourned (with
a game in progress).  When they're re-loaded CM bombs.  I've been doing this
successfully for months.  I'll start a tournament for 100 games, adjourn to use
my computer for other purposes; then resume later.  Until I loaded the 1.0.3
patch, it hadn't bombed off even once.

Now, I hope this additional input doesn't drive you over the edge!

Thanks, John

Steve
