Alice told me of changes she made in <u>CONTINUUM</u>, (1/25)<br>
These consist of new red & black spaces as shown : - The viewer<br>
can be moved back from <br>
the edge so that any of <br>
the 9 spaces marked <br>
(A) can be used by player <br>
A to place a body (but <br>
not the two blacked out <br>
spaces.)<br>
There are some changes <br>
in the scoring but I <br>
don't remember them. <br>
We will probably get <br>
together [to] try it again. <br>
