etc. | etc. Ther is one set of 6 cards for each player in <br> | ||
the game. One of each set is marked as a chief. <br> | |||
The cards are shuffled and dealt out so that each player <br> | |||
gets 6 cards. <s>The p</s> A player with a chief card <br> | |||
tries to locate the other five of his group and get <br> | |||
them to go with him. The first chief to collect his <br> | |||
whole group gets a certain number of points, from which <br> | |||
he must pay out his promises to the members of his <br> | |||
group - except that a player can only belong to one <br> | |||
group. First group completed should get the most points, <br> | |||
etc. This game, of course, is similar to <u>PAYOFF</u>. | |||
<u>HAT IN THE RING</u>. Up to 5 can play. Each player has <br> | |||
a "soapbox" which is a slightly raised platform about <br> | |||
16" x 16". These platforms are set around a "hat" which <br> | |||
is made like a flat straw hat ansd is placed upside <br> | |||
down on the floor. Each player has a set of 15 "vote" <br> | |||
cards with from 5 to 1 votes noted on them. (5 of 1, <br> | |||
4 of 2, 3 of 3, 2 of 4, 1 of 5). Standing on their plat- <br> | |||
forms the players try to throw their cards into the <br> | |||
hat. If a player can reach another player's missed <br> | |||
card he can pick it up. Others just remain on the <br> | |||
floor. After all cards have been thrown there is a <br> | |||
scramble for votes and all players pick up as many <br> | |||
missed cards as they can. Then there is a bargaining <br> | |||
session where players trade to get back their own <br> | |||
cards. Then they go back to their platforms. This <br> | |||
can be repeated one or two more times. Most votes <br> | |||
in the hat wins. Only those touching the bottom are <br> | |||
counted unless there is a tie in which case the <br> | |||
tying players can count any that are on the brim <br> | |||
At my father's tried flipping cards into a bowl. <br> | |||
