*********        Quick Documentation For Jookerie 1.0          ***********

Jookerie is a Scottish word meaning trickery, and that's your objective in
this new game for the Pilot.  No more boredom on those lunchbreaks with 
friends or on those long car rides!

Based on the age old classic of The Dictionary Game, the Pilot
chooses an obscure word from its word list, and players enter definitions 
that they believe the other players would think is the true definition.
The winner is the person who can collect the most points be picking the
correct definitions and by getting others to choose his or her own
definition.  BEWARE: this game can be be hazardous to your obscure word
illiteracy rate!

NOTE: The Registered version of the game is due to be released in the
	first week of July 1997.  You may register prior to this, and
	will be sent the registered version on the day of the
	actual release.

FEATURES:

 - 1000 word database (100 in the unregistered version)
 - Ability to import other word lists from third parties 
	or create your own and distribute them! (registered version only)
 - 1 to 5 players with up to 4 extra computer generated fake definition
 - It will even be possible to create a database of significant dates
	instead of words, and have folks try to guess what
	happened on that particular date!

*****************************  HOW TO PLAY   *******************************

At the initial screen choose how many players are going to play.
Then select how many fake computer generated definitions you would like.
NOTE: The number of players + the number of fake computer definitions
must total to 5 or less.
Finally select the number of rounds (words) you would like.
Once the above is entered each player enters their name.

Following this you will be presented with a word, which you may choose
to use of can opt for a different word (if for some reason the word 
the Pilot chooses is unacceptable - perhaps a duplicate word, or else
a word that too many folks already know the definition of).

Once the word is selected, each user will be asked to graffiti in their
fake definition.  Try to make a definition to the word given that the
other players would believe is the true definition.  If you do happen
to know the true definition, unlike the paper based version of this
game, you should still try to create a fake definition to fool
the others.

After all the definitions are entered, each player is asked to select
the one they believe is the true definition.  You may click on the 
definition lines themselves to bring up a full view of the longer
definitions.  At the top of the screen is a status line that indicates
which player's turn it is to choose a definition.

Following the picking stage, the correct definition is shown and then 
the current scores are displayed.

STARTING A NEW GAME:

If you wish to start a new game while one is in progress, select
the menu item under 'Options' for 'Start a New Game'.  This can only
be selected during the definition picking stage of the current game.

SCORING:

You receive 2 points if you select the true definition of the word.
You also receive 1 point for each player that selected your fake
definition.  The scoreboard shows the scores for the last round, as
well as the total scores.

After the final round, you will see the final scores for the game, and
you can crown the champion as the ultimate Jookerie player!

USING OTHER DATABASES:

In the registered version, you are allowed to load in other databases,
and even create your own word/dictionary lists.  You can select new databases
at the beginning of the New Game screen.
