Looked at <u>MOTHER IN LAW</u>. This is played by two or more couples, <br> | |||
but the couples are not playing together, rather are in <br> | |||
competition with each other as well as with the other players. <br> | |||
Players in turn draw a card from a "Nag" pack of their <br> | |||
sex. This is read off with the number of points involved and <br> | |||
the necessary remedy. The remedy consists of the other <br> | |||
member of the couple reaching a certain specified dice <br> | |||
throw of five dice - in one throw; such as 2 5's or higher <br> | |||
or 3 4's or higher, etc. | |||
The member nagged then throws the dice secretly and <br> | |||
then announces that they made the proper throw or that they <br> | |||
missed. The nagger then either accepts the statement <br> | |||
or doubts it. Different numbers of points are won or lost by <br> | |||
the members of the couples depending on bluffing, getting <br> | |||
away with it, getting caught, etc. <br> | |||
Certain cards in the Nag pack send a woman back to mother <br> | |||
or a man back to a bachelor pad. They stay there till they, in turn, <br> | |||
throw a specified throw of the dice. The other member of <br> | |||
their couple in turn draws a card from another deck (for their <br> | |||
sex). Most of these are penalties of points, but a few <br> | |||
large bonuses are included. (Rough idea.) <br> | |||
<u>Herb Siegel</u> was there and I asked him the list price <br> | |||
of <u>WOMAN & MAN</u>. $8. <br> | |||
Looked at <u>TOURNAMENT GOLF</u> (Rigley Banada Corp., P.O. Box 327, <br> | |||
Scottsdale, Arizona, 85252). There is a board with a golf <br> | |||
course (supposed to be a particular course) layed out with <br> | |||
a grid. Play is in the spaces but also on the lines (as shown). <br> | |||
[Diagram showing 9 circles arranged 3 x 3. The outer ones are connected by lines. Beneath this is another small diagram showing 2 squares - each labeled '10 yards'.] | |||
There are about 14 dice representing different <br> | |||
clubs. The six faces have different distances <br> | |||
marked on them. The player chooses one and <br> | |||
"addresses" the ball, that is, says the direction <br> | |||
including diagonal, that he is driving the <br> | |||
ball. He throws the die, together with another die, <br> | |||
this one having the following faces: Hook 20 yds., Hook 40 yds., <br> | |||
Slice 20 yds., Slice 40yds., Blank, Blank. When on the green <br> | |||
there are "putter" dice <s>depen</s> the one to be used depending <br> | |||
on the distance from the hole at the time. (Rough idea.) <br> | |||
<u>Claude</u> visited me. Got me to open up the cards from a <br> | |||
<u>SLEUTH</u> set to attract attention, but it didn't do much good. <br> | |||
Claude brought me the book <u>CHICAGO BRIDGE</u>. <br> | |||
