Introduction

This bibliography contains lists of citations to the game of Tiddlywinks. Most references are to the modern game of tournament Tiddlywinks as played by the North American Tiddlywinks Association (NATwA), the English Tiddlywinks Association (ETwA), the Scottish Tiddlywinks Association (ScotTwA) and others since January 1955. There are also many citations which have been useful in our research into the origins and history of the game.

NATwA & TiddlywinksNATwA & TIDDLYWINKS

The North American Tiddlywinks Association (NATwA), founded in 1966, is an organization which sponsors tiddlywinks tournaments, obtains and distributes winks equipment, recruits new players, and promotes the game in general. NATwA publishes an informal magazine, Newswink, to keep winkers informed of recent events. NATwA maintains close ties with ETwA, the English Tiddlywinks Association and ScotTwA, the Scottish Tiddlywinks Association.

The major offices of NATwA are the Secretary-General (president of the organization), Treasurer, Newswink editor, Archivist, and a Statistics Committee which keeps detailed records of every tournament game and which compiles interesting and unusual statistical lists. Geographically, NATwA is based primarily in the northeastern United States, with most tournaments held in the Washington, D.C., area, in Cambridge, Massachusetts, and in Ithaca, New York.

The winking season traditionally consists of three championships (Teams, Pairs, and Singles) and several informal tournaments throughout the year. The winner of the Singles has the right to challenge the current World Singles champion to a match in which the best score in seven games wins. The winner of ETwA's English National Singles is also eligible to challenge the reigning champion. Over thirty World Singles matches have been played since the first one in 1972. World Pairs and World Teams championships complete the winking world's triple crown.

Origins

The original game of tiddlywinks was an adult craze in England, the United States, and Europe throughout the 1890s after its invention by Joseph Assheton Fincher of London. Fincher patented the game in 1888 and trademarked the name TIDDLEDY-WINKS in 1889. The game quickly fell into public domain, and a large number of variations on the basic game were marketed, including Tiddledy-Wink Tennis, Ten Pins, and Golf. Over 70 patents have been issued for tiddlywinks-style games since.

History

Tournament Tiddlywinks was organized at Cambridge University in England by William Steen and R. C. Martin in 1955, although it had been played informally there as early as 1949. It developed slowly in England until Cambridge challenged Prince Philip to a match. Philip appointed a radio comedy group, the Goons, including Peter Sellers and Spike Milligan, as his royal champions against Cambridge, and the great amount of publicity surrounding the 1958 match excited public interest in the game. The game became very popular in Britain, and in 1962 a team from Oxford toured the United States and defeated every team it faced, including one fielded by Harvard undergraduates. Winks really didn't catch on in the US until 1966­67 when NATwA was founded and teams had formed at many colleges including MIT, Harvard, Cornell, and Waterloo.

In 1972 a team from MIT returned to England and defeated Southampton for the World Teams Championship. US All-Star teams have since visited in 1978, 1981, 1985, and 1988. The US has dominated world play.

NATwA reached in peak in terms of number of players in the mid­1970s and has since declined somewhat, but there remains a nucleus of dedicated winkers who keep the game active. Since NATwA's inception, there have been 140 official tournaments, about 6000 tournament games, and a total of 500 different players.

Rules

Tournament Tiddlywinks is a game that requires both strategy and manual skill. This game differs greatly from "children's" tiddlywinks. The children's game involves merely flicking the winks into a cup. Tournament Tiddlywinks also uses this shot (known as potting), but has, in addition, two other basic shots. The first is the squop shot, the most important shot in winks. In squopping, a player shoots his wink onto opposing winks, thus immobilizing them. Any wink under any other wink (however slightly, possibly not even touching) is squopped and may not be played directly until freed. A player is allowed to hit winks directly under his playable wink so long as he strikes the top wink first; piles can be blown up in this manner. The other basic shot is the approach shot, in which a wink is sent to a key position from which it can protect friendly squops, attack enemy piles, or set up a strategic area.

Winks normally is played by four people, each winker controlling one of the colors blue, green, red, and yellow. In singles games one player controls both colors of a partnership (red and blue play against green and yellow). Each color has six winks, two large and four small. Winks are played by pressing or flicking them with a squidger, a larger plastic disc one to two inches in diameter. The game is played on a three foot by six foot felt mat. A time limit of 25 minutes is used (20 for singles), after which five additional rounds are played.

Games may be won by either of two methods: by getting all of one color into the cup (potting out), or if this has not been accomplished by the end of rounds, by establishing more points using a time-limit point system which is used to determine first through fourth places. Games can be won without having to pot any winks if most of the opponents' winks are squopped. In tournament-level play the typical strategy is to gain control by squopping enemy winks rather than by focusing solely on potting one's own winks. There are many intricacies in both the strategy and technical play that cannot be detailed here.

Winks has a vocabulary and subculture all its own. For instance, you might overhear at a tournament "I can't pot my nurdled wink, so I'll piddle you free and you can boondock a red. But if Sunshine gromps the double, I'll lunch a blue next time." In English this translates to "My wink is too close to the cup to pot it, so instead, I'll gently shoot you out from under the pile and you can shoot an opponent's red wink off the table. But if Sunshine (a winker) captures two of our winks with only one of his, I'll pot an opponent's blue wink (sometimes a useful strategy) on my next turn."

Players often go by their winks nicknames, some of which are L, Bozo, Horsemeat, and Dragon. A few winkers, such as Sunshine and Ferd, are known by nothing else, even in everyday life. Many winkers have computer-related jobs (due to the MIT influence) but professions range from carpentry to union organizing to psychiatry. NATwA contains a wide variety of people, all of whom enjoy the fun and interesting aspects of winks.

Jun 1994v273 n6 p24(3) "Busy, busy, busy" (Americans' love of joining associations) by Cullen Murphy. <CompuServe Reference # A15415780> ("Larry Kahn, of the North American Tiddlywinks Association, in Silver Spring, Maryland, explains that most of the 100 dues-paying "winkers" in his group are men, and that most have a background in mathematics or computers. In the United States major tiddlywinks tournaments are held four or five times a year. NATwA has a sister organization, known as ETwA, in England; of English winkers Kahn observes, "They're even nerdier than we are." Like participants in many other sports and games, winkers have developed a distinctive jargon. They may say, for instance, "I can't pot my nurdled wink, so I'll piddle you free and you can boondock a red." Tiddlywinks apparently enjoyed something of an efflorescence in the United States in the late 1960s and the 1970s, after which it entered a period of mild decline. Kahn blames this on the nation's having experienced a time of cynical economic opportunism and creeping spiritual discontent, which together eroded the bedrock of silliness upon which the edifice of tiddlywinks is erected. Or so I inferred. Actually, what he said when asked about the cause of the decline was simply, "Reagan." ") <e>
