Wednesday 5 May 1965
125th day - 240 days to come
Postcard from Paul Greenough. Said he'd be in town at end of
May. Wrote inviting him here.
Spoke to Claude. He has a GAME IDEA. Each player has
a 4 x 4 field. The fields are dividedinto 4 colors, 4
spaces of each. The pattern is the same on each. Each
player has an electrical contact which is used as a
token. One player starts by placing his contact in a
space. A light tells his opponent in which color the play was
made. Second player does same. Then players can move
one space orthogonally. By studying the sequence of colors
in should be possible to locate the opponent. Then try
to land directly on him. When do this a "win" light shows.
There has to be some provision for switching parity
by a diagonal move or a move of two or one player will
never be able to win.
