Given that Flipmode has symbolic significance re: the pentad's relationship(s), I wonder what we're to make of Wallace's rejection here.

Then again, sometimes a cigar is just a cigar.

0284-------------------------------------

(Thursday afternoon, INT: WW and SW's apartment)

JH: So... how much do you think it would cost to get a board, pieces, and a set of cards printed? Should we be doing pieces out of folded and glued cardboard, or can we get little plastic guys made?
WW: I dunno. To be perfectly honest, I don't know if this one is sellable.
--------------
JH: Really? Why not?
WW: The concept is a little too... game designery, if that makes sense. And given how many different improvements Simon and I were able to suggest off the tops of our heads, I can't help but think that Flipmode needs more time on the drawing board, and a lot more time playtesting.
--------------
JH: Oh. Fair enough, I guess.
SW: You've got a bunch of other board games, right? You can bring some other game over another day, I'm sure we can find one that'd be easy to sell and cheap to manufacture.
--------------
JH: Sure... I guess I'll just have to remember not to bring them over on a Tuesday.
SW: Hey, you can if you like, just make sure you make'em hot wax and lube-proof.
