games with Nick and some others. Went over the rules for
games with Nick and some others. Went over the rules for
<u>SUPERGHOSTS</u>.
<u>SUPERGHOSTS</u>.
<br>He contacted <u>Carl</u> who is going to Guatemala Monday afternoon.
Phil will try and see him Monday morning. He will
show him the following: <s>LAPS</s> <u>THE GREAT RACE</u> (<u>LAPS</u>),
<u>SPRINT</u> (<u>II RACES</u>), <u>LANDGRAB</u>, <u>PAYOFF</u>, <u>TRIVIA</u> (Phil is using
a scoring rule that a unique word scores twice as much as
one that opponents used), <u>SPACE STATIONS</u>, <u>COMBINATIONS</u>,
<u>SUPERGHOSTS</u> (Phil was afraid that noone there would be
familiar with the name <u>GHOSTS</u> but I said that is one of
the most popular parlor games), <u>INVESTIGATION</u> - a name I
just thought of for <u>WIRETAP</u> or <u>POWER NETWORK</u>.
<br>He will hold these for future submissions if req'd: -
<u>AIR BATTLE</u>, <u>CONNECTIONS</u>, <u>CROSSFIRE</u> (the <u>HEX</u> variation-
and another name will be required), <u>HEXOWORD</u>, <u>DRILL FOR OIL</u>,
<u>NO WAY</u> (Phil will talk to Manny - who originally said he'd
like a solitaire), <u>TOURNEY</u> (we both agreed that this is almost
certainly too difficult as it now stands), <u>XANDO</u>.
<br>Phil will call me Monday with the results, if any.
2nd call from <u>Phil Orbanes</u>. He asked how many dice are used in
<u>THE GREAT RACE</u>. In <u>SPRINT</u> they found that it was rather long
when 4 play. They wanted to cut off one or two columns. Also they
wanted to give 2nd score to the player with the most spaces at
the time first is won. I said I didn't like the latter. But on
further thought, it might be O.K.
Wrote to <u>Graeme Levin</u>. Mentioned <u>INTERNATIONAL GAME SHOW</u>,
<u>EXECUTIVE DECISION</u>, <u>SLEUTH</u>, <u>PLOY</u>, <u>S&T</u>, <u>G&P</u>, <u>NETWORK</u>, <u>OSMOSIS</u>,
<u>LAP</u>, <u>TREK</u>, <u>SIGMA FILE</u>, <u>GAMES WITH PAPER & PENCIL</u>, <u>AGOG</u>,
