Let's make it easy to start with.


Snaresbrook.

North Circular Road. :)

Ah, the Tarkovsky Gambit. Well then...

Theydon Bois.

I'll see your Theydon Bois and raise you Dollis Hill, putting you in knip, I believe...

I was *so* hoping we'd get through at least the first game without the Dollis Hill loop. No matter.

Since I am now in Knip I invoke Scruttock's Law and cancel out the Dollis Hill loop. So there.

West India Quay.

Bah - that was a ridiculously obvious way to get out of the loop - the possibility of invoking Struttock didn't even cross my mind. Must try harder next time. <_<

West India Quay -> Neasden, adding a green token to all requisite diagonals.

Serious, eh? Well in that case:

Maida Vale.

Can you play that if you're still in Knip?

Wednesday before Christmas, mate. Thought you'd have known that.

Still your go.

Hmmm... that doesn't appear in my version of the rulebook... but then again, I've only got Symes 1973 and haven't had the opportunity to get any of the amendments since then. :rolleyes:

I'll take your word for this one, but I'd appreciate proof at some point.

Maida Vale --> Liverpool Street.

Dane Road

Shit that's on the Manchester Metrolink :wub:

Northern Rules? That's nice. Very nice. But you aren't in Knid so disallowed.

I'm sticking a peg in Wembley Park and catapulting (by gravity) out to Northwood.

I don't want to sound stupid, but unfortunately, I am.

give us a clue guys. what are the rules to this? :unsure:

It would take too long to explain - try and pick it up as we go.

Or read this instead.

Thanks fellas, much clearer now :)

New cross gate

I've had a quick glance at Lord Bermondseys' 27th amendment clause vi
to the original regulations. I believe you'll find that this places Northwood in a vacuum with all occupants unable to move :D

Not bad for a newbie. But I think you'll find

Shadwell

blocks that one rather nicely. Next!

Shadwell!

I'd missed that, being a bit green at this :o

I have no option but to play the Lawtonian variation to Bank

Can he do that?

He can, but as I'm switching to the North London Line at West Hampstead, it hardly matters, does it?

Which very aptly allows me to play

Acton Town

You do know what you're doing, right?

You play Acton Town, I raise Gunnersbury wild, thus allowing the next player to get to...

Canada Water?

Well, that's what happened to me when I tried playing Nick Cave at this. He's a past master, you know.

Ah, but if we are going to play the Melbourne Gothic variant, we might as well go home now.

Cockfosters via Mudchute seems appropriate.

Sorry, that's just the way I learnt it.

Where were we? Can I throw down Totteridge and Whetstone without fear of a Welshman's riposte?

Same to you :D

Moscow Road. (With eyes open wide, no less).

Did someone say Old Kent Road? I don't think so.

Aldgate East, putting Central Line stations out of bounds until Blyth's Ratio becomes positive.

*ahem* Arsenal.

:o Crikey! That's put the cat amongst the pigeons somewhat...

Will have to consider this for a bit...

I say Liverpool Street to you sir. Now let that be an end to it.

Poultry

Is it just me who hasn't got a fucking clue what you lot are talking about?

Didn't mean that to sound rude. I'd love to be enlightened!

Psst: there's a link to the rules above. It will certainly help you to start with.

Elephant and Castle via Dun Laoghaire (before anyone asks see Anglo-Irish Summit 1974)

Wood Green High Street B)

Woodford
