Rcd. a New Year card from <u>Haar Hoolim</u>. Also - why hasn't he <br> | |||

Rcd. 9 answers to the <u>SLEUTH</u> problem. | |||

In Monaco bought <u>ELDORADO</u> (Edmond Dujardin) and <br> | |||
<u>DIX PETITS INDIENS</u> (Gay-Play). Gay-Play also mentioned <br> | |||
<u>DIAMINO</u>, <u>DIAMINO-POKER</u>, <u>LE TOUR DU MONDE EN 80 JOURS</u>, and <br> | |||
<u>DEFENSE D'AFFICHER</u>. | |||
Started a game of <u>PROFIT</u> with BB in Genoa but didn't <br> | |||
complete it because we were too tired. | |||

chains and then throws 2 dice - 1 regulation and 1 <br> | |||
with 3 "up" and 3 "down" faces. The result moves the price <br> | |||
up or down 10 points for each 1 on the regular die. The <br> | |||
maximum price of a chain is $3,000 and the minimum <br> | |||
12 $100. (Jerry had the die with 3 up and 3 down faces. <br> | |||
In general a player wanted the price to move in a certain <br> | |||
direction, but it was completely a matter of luck. I suggested, <br> | |||
and Jerry agreed, to have 2 up, 2 down, and <br> | |||
2 blank faces. When a blank is thrown the player chooses <br> | |||
the direction.) <br> | |||

more franchises in a chain that is all sold out (no figures <br> | |||
left in the inner compartment). He can buy only from one <br> | |||
player and can buy up to the number that player has. He <br> | |||
puts down $1000 as a deposit on each franchise he wants to <br> | |||
buy. Then, starting with the seller, each player in turn <br> | |||
throws the regular die until each has thrown the die 5 <br> | |||
times. The seller's throws raise the price and the buyer's <br> | |||
lower it, until the final price is reached. If the price has <br> | |||
risen to the point where the buyer has insufficient money, he <br> | |||
loses his deposit to the would be seller. (Jerry was talking about <br> | |||
using the 2 dice with the new face set up. My later <br> | |||
idea is to throw the 2 of them 5 times, a blank face <br> | |||
always being considered an "up", so that the price is apt to rise.) <br> | |||
Note: A player having 3 of the same franchise has a "half <br> | |||
chain." 6 of the same franchise is a "full chain." A full chain <br> | |||
can not be touched by a demand card. <br> | |||
If a player cannot or chooses not to use a demand card, he can <br> | |||
buy a franchise in the usual manner. <br> | |||
"<u>Payoff on Investment</u>" (9 of). From each opponent collect twice the <br> | |||
pad price [Illegible crossed out] (the price on the "pad" for a franchise of that <br> | |||
chain) for each full chain, the pad price for each half pad, and $100 <br> | |||
for each other franchise. | |||
