REGISTRATION
1. The game supplied is an unregistered version. This version is
provided as a demonstration of the game capabilities and provides
a fully functioning GIN simulation. Some game enhancements
are reserved for those users who find this game to be a worthwhile
investment. Shareware is a try before you buy marketing method. If
you make regular use of this software, you are expected to "purchase"
it by paying the registration fee. As an additional incentive to

several game enhancements not available in the unregistered copy.
These features are listed below.
REGISTRATION BENEFITS
1. Your registered version will no longer have registration reminders

continue a previously started match.

optional Sound Blaster Voice Pack if desired. These files will allow you
to hear digital recordings of the words seen in most talk balloons by
the computer opponents. This provides for a more realistic and entertain-
ing game. NOTE: When all voice files are decompressed to your hard disk,
they will occupy more than 1.2 mega bytes of space. This feature requires
a Sound Blaster or 100% compatible system.

button to activate it. Use this fuction if you have made a mistake while

so that no melds are highlighted (only required if the meld(s) you have
highlighted are valid.)
The melds you indicated with this process must be valid before the game
will accept them. If your meld is not valid, you will be notified with
a message in the message box at the bottom of the SELECT MELD CARDS panel.

"This program is produced by a member of the Association of Shareware
Professionals (ASP). ASP wants to make sure that the shareware principle
works for you. If you are unable to resolve a shareware-related problem
with an ASP member by contacting the member directly, ASP may be able to
help. The ASP Ombudsman can help you resolve a dispute or problem with an
ASP member, but does not provide technical support for members' products.
Please write to the ASP Ombudsman at 545 Grover Road, Muskegon, MI 49442
or send a CompuServe message via CompuServe Mail to ASP Ombudsman 70007,3536.
