Rcd. a letter from <u>Howard Thompson</u> of "Metagaming Concepts</u> concerning <br> | |||
<u>STELLAR CONQUEST</u>. Also mentioned <u>Lewis Pulsipher</u>. | |||
Preparatory to meeting at <u>Felicia</u>'s looked at <u>SHAPE & SHATTER</u>, <u>LOTTERY</u> <br> | |||
(making some notes on material I don't think I have on file), and <br> | |||
<u>FOREIGN INTRIGUE</u> (finally locating all the latest info in the box). <br> | |||
Went over my new Italian games and took rules for the following to get <br> | |||
repros: <u>CIACK: SI GIRA!</u>, <u>BUSINESS</u>, <u>ALTA FINANZA</u>, <u>GUARDIE E LADRI</u>, <br> | |||
<u>PICCOLE DONNE</u>, <u>MASTER</u>, <u>AUTO MARKET</u>. | |||
To <u>Felicia</u>. <u>Alan Newman</u> there. I found the missing stops on <u>SPACE BOXES</u> and <br> | |||
added the missing pcs. <br> | |||
<u>Ron Weingartner</u> & <u>Jim Houlihan</u> there for E.S. Lowe. Showed them the following. <br> | |||
<u>JACK POTS 6</u>. Played part of a game and they want it sent. <br> | |||
<u>TRAVEL AGENT</u> (Alan's). A spinner indicates a city and player's bid for <br> | |||
a ticket to that city using a bidding die with two faces from $100 to $600. <br> | |||
Ties are eliminated. At other times (don't remember details) cities are <br> | |||
chosen and players with ticket to that city can collect. Each player <br> | |||
has a "Bump"# and if two or more players want to sell a ticket, low number <br> | |||
wins. Bump #'s are rotated with play of special cards. These cards <br> | |||
also increase cost of tickets for deluxe, etc. Players have 5 in hand and <br> | |||
can play as many as desired. Cities are grouped in trips and if one is <br> | |||
spun, all can be sold together. (Rough idea.) They weren't interested. <br> | |||
<u>RIGHT ANGLES</u>. No. <br> | |||
<u>B-O-C-O</u>. Send rules. <br> | |||
<u>LOTTERY</u>. No. <br> | |||
Felicia spoke to <u>Bob Johnson</u> and he promised an answer on <u>FOCUS</u> by Thurs. <br> | |||
<u>Carla Hagan</u> was there on some other business. She was interested in <br> | |||
games on consumer buying. Told her about ''<u>THE GUIDE TO SIMULATIONS /</u>'' <br> | |||
''<u>GAMES FOR EDUCATION AND TRAINING</u>''. She'll call me to see if there is <br> | |||
anything in there. She also gave me her number: <u>Caroline Hagen</u>, <br> | |||
Young & Rubicam International Inc., 285 Madison Ave., New York, N.Y. 10017 - <br> | |||
953-2072. <br> | |||
Weingartner & Houlihan told me that <u>Terry Seymour</u> had been fired. <br> | |||
With Alan Newman to Press Room. Registered. Alan would like me to <br> | |||
leave <u>KLONDIKE</u> at Felicia's for him to pick up. I also want to get a <br> | |||
copy of ''<u>6 PACK OF PAPER & PENCIL GAMES</u>'' to him. <br> | |||
In a display room saw boxes & boards for <u>POWER BROKER</u> (Hasbro), <br> | |||
<u>BLACK GOLD</u> (Magic Rainbow), and <u>BEAT INFLATION</u> (Cardinal). Also some <br> | |||
S.P.I. games. Also the Aladdin games, including <u>BARRIER</u> and </u>PUSHOVER</u>, <br> | |||
