Is there anybody out there that as played 'Tsoro'? I learned how to
play it from a guy that was from Zimbabwe(sp?). The game itself is 
fairly simple, but can be quite stimulating.  I'm trying to put it
on the computer and have a few questions about the particulars.  Un-
fortunately, my friend has gone back to Zimbabwe.

 It is played on a square board with 24 holes connected in rows of
three.  Each player takes a turn by placing one of his eleven pegs
into an open hole.  If a player gets three in a row, s/he removes
an opponents peg of his/her choice.  this continues untill the play-
ers have placed all their pegs into the board.  They now move the
pegs to an adjacent open hole once again trying to get 3-in-a-row.
Once a player has less than 3 pegs s/he loses.
If you know this game or want to, let me know...
