simulation <u>GAME</u> to be played on 10/14, using a computer. Earl will<br> | |||
join it and asked if I'd be interested. Told him I was interested, <br> | |||
but can't commit myself until he could tell me more about<br> | |||
it.<br> | |||
There was an ad in the ''<u>TIMES</u>'' for an "Administrative Ass't. to<br> | |||
an executive in Adult Games - to travel with him. Super-plush surroundings. $190 a week." Earl asked if I would<br> | |||
be interested. No. He called Wald before. Not in, and Earl left<br> | |||
word for <u>Wald</u> to call him.<br> | |||

The one on the outside track is #1 and is keyed to the<br> | |||
8 in 10 deck, while the others are keyed to worse decks<br> | |||
until #5 on the inside track is keyed to the 4 in 10 deck.<br> | |||
Players in turn draw a card which presents a problem<br> | |||
and a reward for solving it (movement ahead and for money)<br> | |||
or a penalty for not. Player can pick the man they will<br> | |||
used - based on the reward and penalty and on the fact tha<br> | |||
all men must be brought around the track. Players can<br> | |||
hire away a good man from an opponent if that man stops<br> | |||
in his corporate headquarters (three spaces that each<br> | |||
of the four players has on his side of the board and <br> | |||
which also set the start and finish for his men). <Players</u> Men<br> | |||
can be sent to school to improve their efficiency, moving<br> | |||
them to the next outside track. Didn't get the victory<br> | |||
conditions involving the race and the money. (I pointed<br> | |||
out that this one, in contradiction to the first game,<br> | |||
could be used as a commercial game since it is not a<br> | |||
question of knowing the information on the cards. They<br> | |||
did not seem much interested in this.)<br> | |||
