Had an idea for a game I can probably get away with call-
ing DICKENS. On a hexagonal field players take turns
placing one letter. Each tries to form words in one of
the 6 directions, and up to 6 can play. In placing a
letter, a player must make a word in at least one direc-
tion - not necessarily his own. Score for longest word
in each row as follows: 2-1, 3-2, 4-4, 5-7, 6-10, 7-15,
8-20, 9-25.
Later thinking of some variations. 1) Letters can be skipped
in determining a word. 2) Players write their letters in
their own color. Players score bonuses for each letter in
a word that is not their own color - but not more than 1 for
a two-letter word and 2 for a three- letter word, and only
if all of the letters are not his own color for these two cases.
BB suggested the name CARROLL for SUPERGHOSTS.
