Mailed the <u>FACTOR</u> rules to I-S. | |||
Alice called. A gal from an investment firm contacted her <br> | |||
to get the name of some smaller game companies. Their client is <br> | |||
a big company that wants to take over some. They want S&R <br> | |||
but S&R is resisting. Discussed the different companies with <br> | |||
Alice. <br> | |||
Later Alice called to ask me what I knew about <u>AVANTE</u>. | |||
To McGraw Hill Bldg. to see Fred Blakely of <u>BUSINESS WEEK</u> <br> | |||
magazine. He gave me a <s>tear shee</s> tear sheet of the 11/30 <br> | |||
issue which mentions me and <u>ACQUIRE</u>. Also gave me a <br> | |||
copy of <u>BUY OR SELL</u> and <u>STOCK MARKET</u> (Futures). <br> | |||
Gave me the rules and a picture of <u>WALSTRETE</u> which will be <br> | |||
published next year, the inventer says (Filed in Misc. Game Folder.) <br> | |||
To Macy's and Gimbels, Saw <br> | |||
<u>STICK AROUND</u>. (Aurora) A set of equipment with "stars" <br> | |||
and tubes of different colors that fit over the projections. <br> | |||
[Small diagram of a circle with 6 appendages sticking out around the perimeter and a dot at the center.] <br> | |||
There is one tube which is mounted on a <br> | |||
pedestal <s>and</s> with a star at its top. Players in turn <br> | |||
place tubes, or stars, trying to get rid of 6 tubes, Any one star cannot have more than one tube of the same colon stuck into it Winning by using 6 tubes and lose by tipping the structure over (Rough idea. <br> | |||
<u>GO GIN</u> (Ideal) Deck of letter cards with numbers on each. <br> | |||
Played with 10 in hand, I think. Draw and discard as in <u>RUMMY</u> <br> | |||
Meld must be at least a 4 letter word. Can only make <br> | |||
one meld on a turn but can also lay off at beginning or <br> | |||
end of any word already down whether or not you make a <br> | |||
meld. Can knock with count of 4 or less (I think). Others <br> | |||
can meld one more word and can also layoff against words <br> | |||
down, Scoring similar to <u>GIN RUMMY</u>. (Fairly complete idea). <br> | |||
<u>AGITATION</u> (Crestline) Another <u>PARCHISI</u> imitation on a <br> | |||
wood board. | |||
Card came that <u>ANOTHER</u> • was received on 11/25. | |||
Called Fabio in morning and he called me back shortly. <br> | Called Fabio in morning and he called me back shortly. <br> | ||
