Partners is an album by pianist Paul Bley and bassist Gary Peacock recorded in New York in 1989 and released on the French Owl label in 1991.
Reception
Allmusic awarded the album 4 stars stating "by the time this duo session was recorded, one could expect that a certain degree of musical empathy would be in play. And yes, here there is plenty of the give and take of two old friends who do not go along with the mainstream jazz program. Yet one could also call this an album of twin monologues, for ten of the 15 tracks here are solo improvisations for each player".

Partners is a cross and circle game for four players, working together in pairs. The gameplay is similar to Ludo, Parcheesi and many other cross and circle games, but moves are decided by cards played, not by dice throws. Among the cards available are cards that move pieces backwards, and cards that allow swapping any two pieces that are in circuit, including enemy pieces. The object is for each pair to get their total of 8 pieces lined up in the goal area. The obvious way is to move the pieces around the board, but e.g. using a card to move a piece backwards enables some shortcuts.
The game is designed by Thomas Bisgaard and marketed by Dan-Spil since 1998.

Summary
There were two versions of the game, referred to as 1 vs. 100 Live and 1 vs. 100 Extended Play. The Live version was hosted by Chris Cashman in North America and James McCourt in the UK and Ireland, and places a single contestant as "The One" against a group of 100 that make up "The Mob", with the rest of the players making up "The Crowd". The One has the opportunity to win up to 10,000 Microsoft Points, credited to their Xbox Live account, while the remaining members of The Mob divide up the winnings and each win an Xbox Live Arcade game if they are able to eliminate The One. The top three players in The Crowd win the XBLA game as well.
The hosts and players were represented by Xbox Live Avatars. The game was free to all Xbox Live gold subscribers and was supported by advertising revenue. Seasons lasting 13 weeks consisted of various 30-minute extended play sessions followed by live two-hour episodes airing Tuesday and Friday.

General format
In all versions of 1 vs. 100, one player is selected to play the game as The One against 100 other people (50 on some versions such as Belarus and Portugal, 101 on the Taiwanese version), collectively known as The Mob (or what "Mob" translates to in the local language). Depending on the format of the game, the player can be selected randomly from the Mob, or selected independently. To win the game outright, the One must eliminate all 100 members of the Mob by answering questions correctly.
