Triple Play is one that I'm kind of looking at to do...

OK, Dan, I'm gonna e-mail this info to you, but I'll post it here, too.
Here's the rules of Triple Play in full:
Two players compete. The object of the game is cover 3 numbers on the triangular webbed game board such that the connection of the 3 forms an equilateral triangle. The triangle can be of any size, so long as it's equilateral.
Each turn, the two players (represented by green and purple) spun a pair of wheels. Each wheel had numbers on them. The wheel on the left had 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6 in that order, the 2nd one had 7, 8, 9, 10, Square One TV logo, 12 in that order.
After the wheels were spun, the contestant had to make either an addition or a multiplication equation with the numbers that came up. If the equation could be made and the answer was right, that number was covered on the board.
There were several ways a player could mess up, though...
> If the player gave the wrong answer to the equation
> If the equation resulted in a number that was already covered on the board
> If the player spun a pair of numbers where BOTH right answers were covered on the board
If any of those things happened, the player's turn was wasted.
The moment a player had the equilateral triangle made on their turn and recognized it, they shouted "Triple Play!" and was instructed to call out the numbers that made the triangle. Doing so successfully won the game. A mistake continued the game as normal.
That's about everything in a nutshell. I can set up the grid for you if you want. I remember how it went.
Let me know. I loved this game, I'd love to play it.
