11 moves and you're out

This is the whole game.

The current state of play is:

• Kev: Marble Arch (move #1)
• Rob: Russell Square (Thus opening the way for the 'King's Cross' manoeuvre). (move #2)
• Simon: Tottenham Court Road (Yes, there was King's Cross, but Tottenham Court Road seemed safer. (move #3)
• acb: Aldgate East (the Hall fiancetto) (move #4)
• Steve: Moving south, Southfields, and you can't get much more south than that (move #5)
• Jonathan: Did I mention that my great grandfather is Sydney Hall, ex world champion and inventor of the Hall fiancetto? (move #6)
• Jonathan: Dollis Hill (predictable, but sound) (move #7)
• Kev: Alperton (move #8)
• Steve: Pimlico, beware the Oulds inclination (move #9)
• Rob: Charing Cross. Suitably without inclination, I think. (move #10)
• Stephen(Not Steve): St. John's Wood (move #11)
• Kev: Mornington Crescent! (You shouldn't have discarded the inclination so readily...)

  ---

  (move #12)
• Kev: A nice game - not overly simplistic and not too complicated. A shame that Rob and Stephen chose not to follow up the inclination, though - it could have made for a more exciting game if applied correctly. (move #13)
• Jonathan: One cannot help but frown once again. TWELVE moves not overly simplistic? (move #14)
• Kev: It's possible to have a hundred-move game that's simplistic, of course - the eleven-move game above (your first words were a comment, remember) was, objectively, rather complex without being too confusing. Just right, in my opinion. (move #15)
• Jonathan.: Oh well then. 11 moves is even better. :-\ (move #16)

You can look at the next game (Calvinball), go back to the previous game (Team Game), or review the list of all games.

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