Anyone fancy a game? It's a bit quiet this evening.

Can I confirm that we are playing to Rule 7B and Egyptian moves are disallowed except crossovers and doubletakes?

There was a game on the MacuserPro Meeting Place, but I can't find it any more: http://www.pcpro.co.uk/phpbb/viewtopic.php?p=487853
I won the last game on the silly place so I think I'll wait this one out at Euston.

I suspect that's out of bounds. According to the rules we're using, at least 40 individual moves have to be made before arriving at Mornington Crescent.

Chigwell.

This might be fun on Twitter one day.

I think I'll carry along the central line to Grange Hill.

Can I ask are DLR and London Overground in or out of play this time?

Out, until Heynemann's Gambit has been given a bluff on the Circle Line.

Okay, in that case I call Chalfont & Latimer.

Is there really a Facebook version of this game? Is nothing sacred?

Does the Oyster Advantage apply for single hops, or is that considered vulgar?

I think that's okay within Zones 1 and 2.

Arsenal.

I take that back. I think I jumped a turn. :oops:

If you're south of the river it's always vulgar.
