THE DOOR
Five doors a night, the same five for everyone. The bouncer has rules and will not tell you what they are.
Dress for the line, read the denial, try again. Two attempts a door.
THREE GAMES · A NEW ONE WHEN THE CITY FEELS LIKE IT
THE ARCADE
Sixty games were drawn up for the city. Three are open tonight: a door, a train and a counter. Free, no wallet, phone or desk.
THE LAST TRAIN
2am at Bedford Av. Every fare splits between the pot and everyone already aboard. Last one through takes the night.
Push on, or wait. The doors lock at a time you are not told.
BODEGA COUNTER

BODEGA COUNTER
Hand her a name. She reads you in seven beats, prints the receipt, and the cat decides.
No stakes, no way to lose. The cat keeps her own books, so this one has no board.
DAILY BOARD ·
The top ten, today
The day's top score on THE DOOR and on THE LAST TRAIN gets a New Yorker. Winners are read off this board at midnight New York time. BODEGA COUNTER keeps no score, so it has no board.
