Superficially.

Iain. You would be close, but you'd need at least one nisbet-placing on Camden Town, which as you are surely aware is closed on Sundays between 13:00 and 17:30. So I think a nice little (GMT) early-curfew punnage injunction at Knightsbridge should either force you to get up earlier tomorrow, or find a different route to victory.

Help me out here guys!

Only to prevent Iain wiping the floor with you. Ah well, if you want him to win.... mad. Clearly. Barking.

You're forgetting the 4th rule of East-Indies games, that is if you load nisbets on Monday and Thursday, for at least 2 neighbouring stations, you can deny two spots, and guard the clock-counter.

and since both 'Tufnell Park' and 'Chalk Farm' have been called, the game has obiviously been branded "East-Indies".

I am increasing my Southbound holdings Vauxhall

No need to be Bitter, Iain.

Tottenham Court Road. Note the way Vauxhall is nicely supporting it. Especially on Tuesdays.

Premature Holbornage again? Oh the delicious irony. Oh, and my Barking was the bite.

Bah. I'll have to go For Kew Gardens

To counter Wombat's adept use of the Koffling Maneuver there is only one real option - West Ruislip.

Charing Cross.

That wasn't very nice of me, I know. So I'll drop the lever for all inbounds on Wednesday.

I don't believe I have ever learned to play this game in med school. We often played "Monopoly" and quite a bit of "Operation" (after removing the time release from narcotics and consuming them in combination with hallucinatory sleeping pills), but those were in my days of youth and irresponsibility. I actually had sexual intercourse with a 30 year old back then and recieved a handjob from a TA - but always remember to use protection to protect from unwanted pregnancy and sexually transmitted diseases.

Would someone care to teach me how to play?

-Doc

Aaaah, crud crud crud. I can attempt a Deuteranopic Timetable Clash by throwing Redbridge at it, but I'm running out of nisbits in Zones 1 and 2.

Blame me then for my momentary digression to Baldur's Gate 2 and for not allowing Immortal Wombat to get Mornington Crescent before my West Ruislip. His Koffling Maneuver would certainly have worked otherwise.

Another round? Allow me to open with Uxbridge. Oh, and this time I'd rather fancy this game conducted with Queen's rules, Throckmorton exception in force and with the south-west linkage optional depending on the embankment application.

Same rules right? If not, can I call a penalty for all stops on the Underground constructed after 1970?
Anyways, my move is still Chalk Farm

Edit: Saw the new rules posted. Dang, I should email the Royal Mornington Crescent Rules Association and ask if they have ruled on possible online move editing.

I've always liked to play in a classical sense, very olde england mornington crescent, so I think I'll go with Highgate, quite a presitigious and safe move, and the site of several Michael Caine movies. This is, of course, taking Sunday rules into account.

I'll just start with Stamford Brook and the more experienced players can let me know if I'm doing anything wrong...
