SUNDAY 19 NOVEMBER Twenty Sixth Sunday after Trinity 1967 323rd day - 42 days to come

(cont. from 11/8) [11/18] Called Arthur. Set N.Y.G.A. meeting in his place next Friday.

Called Claude to confirm meeting next Friday. Claude has an idea for a game he calls SEVEN. Players have checkers of their own color and possibly one or more of opponent's color. Checkers are put down one at a time alternately. Checkers in a group which are touching, on edge or diagonally are valued as follows:- pcs. in the color of the player +2, opponent's color -1. a group that adds up to exactly 7 points counts 7 points for the player. These values are for 2 players; probably would have to be alterred for 3 or 4 players. He also thought of having dividing lines between some of the squares to separate groups. I suggested scoring for 11 also and minus for a 13. Also it might be preferable to count only orthoganal connections, not diagonal.

--> [Sunday]<--

Thought of adding discs to I'M ALL TIED UP. These are tangled up when the lines are tangled up at the beginning. At first wanted to give plus score for each disc untangled but this was contradictory since in order to get a disc the opponent's line would have to be removed. Then decided to count each disc remaining on a team's line as a minus when the first team disengages their line. [diagram with three lines running through ring/disc]

Sent $6.50 check for THE CREDIBILITY GAP GAME.

Made a board for ANOTHER. The complete material doesn't seem very eye-catching.

Wrote to Haar Hoolim.

Caught up on game diary.
