FEBRUARY 1975 - SUNDAY 2
GROUNDHOG DAY - 33RD DAY - 332 DAYS TO COME


Brought a copy of TOTALLY to the Baschkopf's.
Played PROFIT with Mike, Helen, and Si. They liked it.
Decided to eliminate the "Dividend" cards in the future since
there seems to be little incentive to use them.
Also decided to allow "Blue Chip Utilities" to become Bankrupt.
Possibly by running from 40 to 140, so that 0 can only be
reached when unstable. Then "Green Fields" could run from
30 to 140, and "Red Sands" from 20 to 140.
Also I think it will be better to have less shares, say only
1, 2, or 3, to avoid the large amouts of money handled,
and also the unfairness between a "1 Share" and a "6 Share".
Also decided to limit a player to 6 stock purchase cards,
instead of 7.
Another possibility. Do not put in the prohibition of buying
and selling the same stock in the "basic game". In
the "advanced game" include this and a $10 per share fee
in buying. Also possibly an "overhead" each turn to keep a
player's money limited.
