hi
Just a beginners question.
I made a tournament in chessmaster 9000 with 7 computer players and myself
in it. The tournament scedule poped up after each game, and showd the next
game. Then you press 'select' and the game will be played.
The problem is that I at one point clicked 'auto' on the tournament
scedule, and now it only shows computer matches, and I do not know how to
stop this and play my own games in the tournament.
Any suggestions would be greatly appriciated.

I think you have to wait until computer matches are done and your game is
next.

I will try this - though I think I have choosen too many rounds ;-)
If this does not work I will send the company an email, as it does not
say anything about this in the manual that comes with the game.
Thanks for the suggestion.

I played around with this, and for the life of me I couldn't find a
solution that worked consistently. I tried choosing Open As:
Tournament in the tournament File Open dialog, but even with that I
was never able to get the Tournament Schedule window to reappear once
the Auto button had been pressed. Maybe I'm missing something.

This looks like a poor design decision on the part of Ubi Soft. The
software should automatically determine the proper tournament mode
based on whether or not humans are participating, instead of putting
the onus on users and allowing them to make an innocent mistake.
Thankfully, it looks like this problem has been fixed in the latest
version of Chessmaster (not sure about Chessmaster 10th Edition, I
don't have that software).
