Hoi Polloi has taken over Bob's <u>TRI-TAC-TOE</u> and will pay <br> | |||
him royalties (after the debt is made up I suppose). <br> | |||
<u>NINE OF SWORDS</u> is just about dead. The royalty check <br> | |||
Phil just rcd. is for less than $8.00. <br> | |||
Phil is afraid that <u>S & T</u> overextended by advertising too <br> | |||
much. He thinks that eventually the ads will pay off but <br> | |||
in the meantime the company is pinched for cash. Phil is not <br> | |||
particularly happy grinding out war games. <br> | |||
While with <u>Carl Eisenberg</u> today we went over <u>SPACE STIX</u> <br> | |||
and <u>FREE FORM</u>. I took them both but he said that <br> | |||
they might be interested in <u>FREE FORM</u> sometime in the future <br> | |||
but not <u>SPACE STIX</u>. <br> | |||
<u>Riess</u> is interested in building up Hoi Polloi and dropping <br> | |||
his other accounts. Phil later confirmed this - even to <br> | |||
dropping Mag-Nif. <br> | |||
One reason Carl gave for not wanting Phil working on Reiss was <br> | |||
"because he was doing a lot of work for Gamut of Games". Later I <br> | |||
asked Phil about what he was working on for them and it is just the <br> | |||
repackaging for <u>BRIDGETTE</u>. <u>Jed</u> talks about having others submitting <br> | |||
games but Phil thinks that <u>Joel</u> will want to do it all himself. <br> | |||
I asked where their money comes from. <u>Waldemar Von Zedtwitz</u>, <br> | |||
the <u>BRIDGE</u> expert, is a millionaire and is putting up the money, and <br> | |||
gives them a pretty free hand. <br> | |||
Carl offered me the copy of <u>''AGOG''</u> I gave him. I said that if he <br> | |||
wants to read it he should keep it. He wants. <br> | |||
<u>Earl</u> called while I was out. <u>Claude</u> and Anne are coming to his temporary <br> | |||
apartment. He invited us, but it was too late by the time I came home. <br> | |||
