Sunday 26 December 1965
Washington Crossed the Delaware 1776
First Sunday after Christmas - St. Stephen
360th day - 5 days to come

Played 6-handed CONCENSUS with dad, Ilka, and the 4 of us.
Used the rule of last night. Worked O.K.
later played 4-hand with Dana, Dale & Joey. Also worked
well tho Dale won on a forced move, the other 2 spaces
being prohibited.

Spoke to Arthur. He has a new version of MACHIAVEL which
he says is now very clear. I'll go there Thursday if Claude
can make it. He is going to show some games to LOWE.

(cont. from 12/31)
If there is a team has a duplication of melds (such as V-MS
in 2 different houses) the value is doubled. Triple
score for 3. Quadruple score for 4. If a team
has corresponding me combinations in major and minor
of the same house it counts triple.

For example
KFL [RING OF SMALL CIRCLES] = 30 x 2 = 60
KFL [BLACK CIRCLE] = 30 x 5 = 150
VCM [BLACK CIRCLE] = 20 x 3 = 60
270 total [ALL 3 ROWS]
Four rounds are a game.
Winning 2 in a row - 25 points bonus.
Winning 3 in a row - 50 [POINTS BONUS].
Winning 4 in a row - 100 [POINTS BONUS].
An excellent game.
