Chris [crossout] says | Chris [crossout] says that Irv Lubow and the president of Renwal | ||
have 3 more years to go on their contract after the takeover by | |||
Allstate and they are in the saddle till then. Possibly another | |||
setup will be made for Phil & Gamescience, but Chris doesn't think there | |||
is nearly as much money in Allstate as Phil thinks there is.<br> | |||
Chris as part of his arrangement with A.H. will be reviewing their | |||
new games as part of the development. He, BB, Dana, and I played | |||
<u>FREE FORM</u>. He liked it and suggested that I show it to Tom Shaw next | |||
Tuesday. A.H. has bought out <u>TUF</u> and <u>TUF'ABET</u> a companion word game.<br> | |||
Chris said that Capt. Rod Walker has a lot of variations of <u>DIPLOMACY</u>. | |||
He will send me his address.<br> | |||
Also Don Miller is head of NFFF Game Bureau and issues a | |||
GAMES Letter and other material. Will also send me his address.<br> | |||
Called Jim Dunnigan after Chris was dropped at subway [crossout] and | |||
told him about Stan Harris' activities in games. He'll talk to Phil about it. | |||
I especially want to know what to do if Stan wants to take AIRLINE with | |||
him. Jim is working on two games: <u>UP AGAINST THE WALL</u> - about | |||
college confrontations, and <u>LUFTWAFFE</u>.<br> | |||
BB and I played <u>SPELLBINDER</u>. Still not too good. Dealing four cards | |||
into a pool each time a word is made gives some impossible letter combin- | |||
ations.<br> | |||
No mail at all today. | |||
Felicia called. Some big shot recommended that a Percy Goldman contact her | |||
about having a game created to push a product. She'll let me know when | |||
she gets further information.<br> | |||
She has an article on Stock Market <u>GAME</u>S which she'll give me when | |||
we got together. BALI is mentioned in an article in a paper I picked up | |||
at the Fair. She asked me to send her a copy, which a will. | |||
