There are fewer mistakes this time. The cell at E7 should have been killed, and a cell (*) should have been born at I4.

Interestingly, you already had the right total of cells for two-star here (the one at I4 makes 6). ThinMan's total should also be 6, though it doesn't matter for scoring. /dev/joe ------------------------------ Date: Wed, 14 May 1997 10:01:26 -0500 From: "Bollinger, John C."

The Genetic Engineer bit was in reference to playing "Viruses." A joke, ya know?

I entered the wrong address the first time I tried to send my last move, and then when I thought I fixed it, I had put the address in the subject line. *grumble* First the conflicts in the first two moves and now this. For the curious, my attempted move was step H5-I4 **two-star ------------------------------ End of Ackanomic Games Digest V2 #66 ************************************
