I'll play a direct rear doublefold to Cockfosters. I'm seriously running out of options here having to play defensive against Mindless' six.

 

West India Quay. And then I'll use Maelberg's Variance to slide down to Canary Wharf. Steadily moving down.

 

Cheers Oz, this allows me to come in for a far more aggressive game and using the Brixton-Lewisham rail link, come into Deptford Bridge with all my tiddlywinks in a row. Mindless, I think you'll find only Oz can stop me from making MudChute next turn, don't go whispering things in his ear

 

Sadly, enembee has forgotten the Gardener's "Cheese" Gambit of '84, which was ruled legal a move and thus allows me, since my current placing is on a station with a "k" in the name, to induce an interchange, placing us all squarely on the Mita and Nanboku lines of Tokyo. I place myself at Shuimura-sakaue. Your move, gentlemen.

 

Of course, thanks to the Duchess of Sandsbury rules (You may have forgotten these became default in the Liverpool rule set in 05), I move with doubled velocity, allowing me to use the Nambuko line to play myself to Onarimon and I opt instead of picking up the two yellow tokens, to take a Flying Nun card.

 

Spend three yellows, and play a Duke to set up a perfect Ongar Denial. Yotsuya, which coupled with the Denial skips me down to Akasaka.

 

To reference the relatively well known Witherspoon-Zuka exhibition match of 88, I play a Zuka Refrain, forcing us across the Pacific, stopping briefly in Chicago for hot coffee and into the New York subway on the Lexington Avenue, Fourteenth Street and Brooklyn Queen's lines.

Oz's trap still applies between Mount Eden and 170, Mindless, though I'm sure you can worm your way out.

 

I start at baker street and make a Tseruga back shuffle (as precedented in the 1972 game between Tseruga and Johnson) and this allows me an extra purple card which allows me to move straight to MORNINGTON CRESCENT fuck yea'.

Oh wait this isn't mornington crescent?

 

Mornington Crescent was decreed an illegal station in 08, meaning you just lost. Congratulations.

 

Ah, my knowledge of the game extends only up to the early months of 2003, I gracefully except the loss and withdraw. It will be interesting to see the new ruleset in action.

 

Damn, it's been ages since I played this. Guess I'll play the Winston Exception of 2001 and start off in Burke Avenue on the 7th line.

 

Good to see some fresh interest! That makes it Oz's turn.

 

Well, the Snerge Coefficient allows me, in combination with Mortimer's Conversion, which we set as the basic rule, to make a border shuffle from my previously knipped position into Euclid Ave.

 

I'll double back onto Essex Street, from Grove Street in preparation for the use of my flying nun. I'm relying on someone to bring us back to London after I've bounced us through Paris.

 

I'll give this a try. I start at 81st street on the B line.
