Phil said | Phil said that except for the original five p & p games he will have to<br> | ||
collect royalties from me for "Gamut of Games". He said that it <br> | |||
wouldn't be more that 10%. I said that I certainly don't object,<br> | |||
even if it is a little bit more that 10%.<br> | |||
I mentioned that I saw some Hoi Polloi and Mag-Nif games in Sears<br> | |||

is no particular hurry with making new models. I asked him<br> | |||
if he had any questions on my <u>HONORABLE RELATIONS</u> revisions.<br> | |||
No problems.<br> | |||
Back to "Gamut of Games". Djoli there and I thanked him for<br> | |||
bringing <u>TILT</u> and <u>ECOPLAY</u>. He said that I could have<br> | |||
<u>MACADAM</u>, and I said that of course if Phil wants to see the<br> | |||
board again I will bring it.<br> | |||
Djoli and <u>Piere</u> played a lot of pin ball machines in Paris.<br> | |||
An electronic ping-pong game called <u>PONG</u>, played on<br> | |||
