Beginning in the summer of 1962 and continuing over the next few years, members of the PDP-1 programming community at MIT, including Russell and the other Hingham Institute members, began to spread out to other schools and employers such as Stanford University and DEC, and as they did they spread the game to other universities and institutions with a PDP-1 computer.
A comezos do verán de 1962 e durante os seguintes anos, os membros da comunidade de programación do PDP-1 no MIT, incluíndo a Russell e os outros membros do Hingham Institute, comezaron a espallarse por outros centros educativos e empresas como a Universiade Stanford e o DEC, e desta forma foron pasando o xogo a outras instalacións que posuían unha computadora PDP-1.
