THURSDAY 27 JULY
1967 208th day - 157 days to come
Felicia called. MB bounced PAYOFF. Mel Taft's letter said that there
are many games which use the formation of coalitions as part
of the game, but there just isn't anything to Payoff. Felicia
said that originally she had felt something like that about
Payoff but had been carried away by everyone else's enthousiasm.
In preparing her report for X she found that the 3M sprots
games are popular with retailers and are cutting into their
purchases of Bookshelf games. In general, games with
lots of rules are "in."
Bob Abbott over in the evening. Showed me his program for playing
AWARI. I understood his logic but not his machine in-
structions. He still hopes some day to do a GAME based
on programming "flow" che diagram.
