<br>Played <u>ANOTHER</u> with <u>Dave Horn</u>, Laurie, and Alan. They liked it. | |||
(Later thinking that the scoring, giving the player with most - | |||
when 2 or 4 play - that amount is unbalanced. Instead give | |||
the amount minus 10. This will give scores from 3 to 14. As | |||
a bonus for getting all cards, the score should be 24 instead of 14.) | |||
<br>After they left played <u>PEACE CONFERENCE</u> with BB and Dana, using | |||
my idea of 12/23. Worked O.K. | |||
<br>Incidentally, the model that Hallmark sent back of <u>ANOTHER</u> is | |||
pretty bad. I have to add blue pcs. of contact to differentiate | |||
the blue pcs. from the green. | |||
