Alice called. Letter from X reporting on the sales of all the  <br>
game submitted by I-S.  <br>
They are playtesting : - <u>RED LETTER</u>, <u>CAPTURE THE CARGO</u>, <u>FORMATION</u>,  <br>
<u>PERCEPTION</u>.  <br>
The following are scheduled for their initial line  - <u>SHAPE AND SHATTER</u>,  <br>
<u>COLOR CONFUSION</u>, <u>TRIPLE CROSS</u>, <u>STACK STICKS, DEDUCTION</u>.  <br>
The following are being returned : - <u>WHOZAT?</u> (Too indefinite.)  <br>
<u>PITFALL</u> (Like it, but don't want to go into such elaborate product at  <br>
present. May want to look at it again but don't feel it is fair to  <br>
hold it (!)). <u>PARTY POLITICS</u> (Started off interesting, but got  <br>
dull towards the end. Also it is too seasonal in interest.) [I reminded  <br>
Alice that we had agreed not to send it because of <u>NOMINATION</u>,  <br>
she said she was sorry.]
