No Objections Please

This is just the last 40 moves. You can see more moves, or the whole game.

The current state of play is:

• Steve: Sorry to quibble but I can't quite see which way we are splitting, are we moving to the left or the right. (move #80)
• Alasdair: As Binton's shunt was used in reverse, then the split is to the left. Well, there is flooding in Barnstaple, so Elephant and Castle. (move #81)
• acb: Finchley Road (and up) (move #82)
• Ian H: Green Park and left!! (move #83)
• Saggy: Barkingside - and sideways! (move #84)
• Kev: Onwards and downwards. Morden. (move #85)
• Alasdair: Logical Progression. Vauxhall. (move #86)
• Doug: Logical progression my foot! The Chelsea Ruling puts the entire Victoria line on an extremely low Footing after a Bank/Euston split (never mind which way), and you must increase your Footing by half if you staying south of the river over a single move. Besides, you'll also find that most people consider a BR interchange station three moves after a Zone 1 station to be extremely poor manners. (move #87)
• Doug: As previously noted, although etiquette does not have the status accorded to the Rules (and Additions, Abbreviations and Aggravations agreed to by all consenting parties), it is of prime importance. (move #88)
• Alasdair: Yes, you are quite right, I'm terribly sorry. It actually was in Inverse Logical Progression, which I suppose is illegal. Logical Progression would have been Bond Street, then Vauxhall. Ruling, Ref? (move #89)
• Doug: Not technically illegal, but certainly immoral. We could let you off and pretend you said Vauxhall (move #90)
• Ian H: Let him off!!! For playing an inverse logical progression that was originally declared as logical!!??!! The very fact that it was BR interchange is worthy of docking 2 points at least.... (move #91)
• Alasdair: Hang on, Ian. All that I did was mis-declare the Progression. In this case, anyway, it would only have been part of a Triple Helsinki, and you know how difficult they are. I just got confused, and turned the wrong way. (move #92)
• Doug: I'm in a forgiving mood today, but I guess we need a ruling if others object. (move #93)
• Alasdair: Agreed. I'll go by whatever ruling you guys see fit. (move #94)
• Dave: I suggest that Alisdair should be banned from moving to blue stations for 12 moves, and that the Reverse Nolan that he has been craftily building up (That no-one else seems to have noticed) should be dismantled. (move #95)
• Dave: And I suggest the same for Alasdair. Sorry about that. (move #96)
• Alasdair: So that leaves me back at Bank, right? (move #97)
• acb: Monument (Hah!) (move #98)
• Steve: I don't know you're all being a bit soft on Alasdair here, I mean in my day it would have been 6 of the best with a belt at least if not a good flogging, but I suppose we move with the times, send him on holiday and tell him not to do it again. Errmm..... Temple HAHAHA (move #99)
• Ian H: Moving directly above temple (metaphorically) Angel (move #100)
• acb: Blackfriars (keeping the theme) (move #101)
• Doug: Wide open here ... back to Rotherhithe, whence we came. (move #102)
• acb: Baker St., blocking off Dollis Hill for good (or at least until Chigwell, Amersham and Pimlico are all free) (move #103)
• acb: which, of course, is not all that likely to happen anytime soon. (move #104)
• Ian H: Why on earth not? i dont see whats wrong with going to pimlico from here??? (move #105)
• Jonathan: I offer a triple head to head gambit duel. Marble Arch, played six times wild. (move #106)
• Alasdair: Ouch. Anyone care to help patch things up? I think Heisenburg should work here, but requires at least three players to be in Nip. (move #107)
• Alasdair: Anyway, hoping to be supported...Embankment. (move #108)
• Dave: Yes, I'll help you - Monument. (move #109)
• Kev: Likewise. Goldhawk Road. The three of us are in Nip, and Heisenburg can now be applied by any non-Nip player. (move #110)
• Ian H: Ok then i can capitlalise by playing Barons Court - and thus apllying the heisenburg (move #111)
• Jonathan: I throw a spanner in the works by un-applying it with a Golding Thistlewit around Manor House. (move #112)
• Alasdair: But that's no defence against Mudchute! (move #113)
• Ian H: devastatingly quick reactions from alasdair .. can jon get out of this one, tune in next move for the next exciting installment (move #114)
• Steve: Warren Street, MC in 5 (move #115)
• Jonathan: Of course it isn't a defence against Mudchute. It is a bait FOR Mudchute, fools. Mornington Crescent, via a compound shunt. Thank you.

• Jonathan: (Winner's Comments): Never underestimate the power of the force. (move #117)
• Steve: Hmmmmmmm........ (move #118)
• Alasdair: Comments: OH, ALL RIGHT, SO I FELL FOR IT! It's playing too many games at once that does it. I'm cutting down... (move #119)

You can look at the next game (The First Web `Reverse MC'), go back to the previous game (Too many Robs? (and an introduction from Yoz ;-)), or review the list of all games. You can also view the previous page.

This game is closed for further play, what with this being an archive and all.
