field are never influenced by these instructions. <br> | |||
Stones captured as in <u>GO</u> are kept by the capturer. <br> | |||
Occasionally stones will have to be swapped to get colors back into <br> | |||
the correct treasury. When a player is out of stones he loses. <br> | |||
(Fairly complete, but there may be a few things missing or wrong.) <br> | |||
Springbok has a series of "Bookcase Puzzles", two jig-saws packed in <br> | |||
a box very similar to the 3M; costs $8.00. | |||
Back to ''<u>BOOK WORLD</u>''. <u>Eve</u> read my column. Found it interesting. <br> | |||
She asked if this was a good year for games and I said "Yes". <br> | |||
She may change my intro to say this. When the proofs come <br> | |||
in she will contact me and I'll take a look at them. <br> | |||
Brought up the matter of <u>BUGS & LOOOPS</u> selling mainly by <br> | |||
mail order. She thought it was agood idea to add that info as a <br> | |||
footnote. I'll call her tomorrow with it. <br> | |||
Asked her if I should contact them next fall. "By all means - if <br> | |||
they are still in business." (?) <br> | |||
Stopped in at <u>Reiss</u> to see <u>Phil Orbanes</u>. <br> | |||
Spoke to <u>Bob Reiss</u> and and later to <u>Manny</u>. They will come to visit me next <br> | |||
Tuesday morning. Told them that I didn't have much in finished <br> | |||
form, but they wanted to come anyway. <br> | |||
Bob showed me an inclusion of <u>NINE OF SWORDS</u>, <u>PITFALLS</u>, <br> | |||
and <u>PLATO'S PLIGHT</u> in Dec. '71 ''<u>PLAYBOY</u>''. <br> | |||
Phil saw <u>Bill Knox</u> of Mag-Nif. He still doesn't have a contract for <br> | |||
<u>GROOVE</u>, but Phil is sure it will be O.K. <br> | |||
Bill is not sure about <u>HOLEY TERROR</u>. He thinks that <br> | |||
it looks too much like <u>GROOVE</u>. Phil tried to convince him <br> | |||
that it wasn't. He'll think about it some more. <br> | |||
Phil's <u>THE PYRAMID PUZZLE</u> is pretty sure. It will probably <br> | |||
be called something with Cleopatra to keep it in line <br> | |||
with <u>PLATO'S PLIGHT</u>. <br> | |||
They priced out <u>SPACE STIX</u> for 18 [cents] for the molded pieces. <br> | |||
