Felicia called <u>Kathy Brooks</u> to ask about the foreign royalties. <br> | Felicia called <u>Kathy Brooks</u> to ask about the foreign royalties. <br> | ||
Kathy had the fellow in financial call Felicia. He didn't know <br> | Kathy had the fellow in financial call Felicia. He didn't know <br> | ||
the answer, but after | the answer, but after I left he called again to say that our <br> | ||
foreign royalties are figured each time a quantity of <s>the</s> a <br> | |||
game is produced so that we'll get lump sums whenever this <br> | |||
happens. The games sold in England are included in the U.S. <br> | |||
totals. Felicia was told that the demand for <u>ACQUIRE</u> has been <br> | |||
good but that there is little demand for <u>EXECUTIVE DECISION</u>. <br> | |||
(Felicia called BB so this is third hand.) <br> | |||
All Felicia has of mine is <u>LOTTERY</u>, <u>THE 31ST HEX</u>, and <u>PUSHOVER</u>. <br> | |||
<u>Bob Johnson</u> called. Our checks were sent yesterday and they are <br> | |||
"healthy". <br> | |||
<u>SPECTRUM</u> has been well received altho there is one problem <br> | |||
which he thinks is just a matter of redesigning the pieces. I <br> | |||
told him that I would be of course happy to work with any <br> | |||
criticism they come up with. <br> | |||
This brought him to mention that he finds <u>PE-LING</u> too <br> | |||
difficult for a beginner to digest at once. He suggested a <br> | |||
simpler beginner's version, keeping the present game as <br> | |||
the advanced version. Told him that I would look at both. <br> | |||
If he has anything to say about it <u>FOCUS</u>, <u>DUEL</u>, and <br> | |||
<u>TROMINO GO</u> will be among the first games to come out - but <br> | |||
no specific date in mind yet, (or that's the way I gathered it). <br> | |||
<u>HONORABLE RELATIONS</u> is in <u>Burt Huber</u>'s area and Bob doesn't <br> | |||
know its status. <br> | |||
I mentioned that I had some small changes in <u>RED LETTER</u> and <br> | |||
he said that he had felt something wrong in the scoring. <br> | |||
Felicia brought up <u>FOREIGN INTRIGUE</u> and then the two of them <br> | |||
got off on which one of the previously submitted games he <br> | |||
wants to see again. It is <u>ESCAPE</u>, not <u>ESPIONAGE</u>, <br> | |||
<u>DOUBLE AGENT</u>, or <u>COUNTER INTELLIGENCE</u>. <br> | |||
He said he'd like to see <u>THE BRAIN GAME</u>. <br> | |||
<s>He started</s> The matter of advertising came up and he <br> | |||
