Need replacement advisor for backseat driver

[Guest]

Hello All--

I need a replacement Italian advisor for the backseat driver game bkseat6
on NZMB (judge@gem.win.co.nz). Our previous advisor seems to have gone
AWOL. Backseat driver is a variant in which the people moving the pieces
and the people negotiating are different. If you take this role, you'll be
*negotiating* for Italy. Your piece pusher will order your unit.

If you're interested (and you should be by now), please signon as an
observer to bkseat6 on NZMB, send me a note to btmiller at uchicago.edu,
and I'll fill you in on the details.

Please help us out!

Thanks,
-Tim Miller

I think it's a kind of board game.

Amusing.

And the point of this exercise would be?
