A Simple Game of MC
help
Well, our MC-playing muscles have probably become a bit atrophied from lack of use, so how about a simple game so we can all limber up a bit? Let's see: There. I don't think I can simplify things any further than that without making a travesty of the entire game. So, let's get on with it then.

Trafalgar Square
It's a square world.
Euston Square
Completing the square and claiming the bonus.
Leicester Square
Moving into the fifth dimension.
Dollis Hill
Not the fifth dimension, softers! That's where all the gravitons are!
Chalk Farm
Such larks.
Finchley Road & Frognal
First larks, now finches.
Oval
[INJ] Ah of course, I'd forgotten the original precedent. Although when in doubt, it was usually him who tried it on first ;)
Dollis Hill
Did someone play Dollis Hill?
Dollis Hill
[Software] Just when I thought we'd managed to avoid the loop thanks to Spangle's sacrifice. Still, I suppose you had no choice - I certainly can't escape it, not with my anti-clockwise LV.
Dollis Hill
This time round I'm jumping in with glee!
Dollis Hill
I'm sorry, but it seems Software missed some elementary physics, entered the fifth dimension (that's where all the gravitons are), and got us all caught up in a huge loop of gravity. The only way I could possibly hope to free us was to send us into a more stable loop and invert the gravitational pull. Now, how do we get out of this?
Ongar
Sacrificing 6 green podumes in the process.
Dollis Hill
Rather looks like those podumes were sacrificed for nowt. Ongar has run out of rail.
Dollis Hill
I'm sorry about this guys, I didn't mean to trap us all, but I didn't want the world to end in a black hole, either. Maybe this video will help to explain things.
Dollis Hill
Invoking "Squares Only" for the next fifteen moves.
Farkle
Putting a square token on Dollis Hill.
Bradford Foster Square
Surely this would be far enough away to escape the gravitational pull...
Woodside Park
...which for some reason is my only legal move. I'm suspicious one of you gentlefolk has laid a trap here...
The Square and Compasses at Worth Matravers
What happened there?
South Ealing
We seem to have neutralised the loop, but I have sealed off the jubilee line for the next ten moves, or we might risk creating a black hole, and that would be bad. However, I rightfully claim the anti-gravity scout badge for my efforts in defeating the graviton.
The Inn at Whitewell
Be still my beating heart
The Three Tuns
Bond Street
Kentish Town
Cranking up the game play after a month's enforced stoppage.
Laterals now open. Glory be.
Putney Bridge
Thank you, that's freed things up nicely
Epping
Canary Wharf
Collecting bonuses.
Finsbury Park
Well you said it was available at all times!
Acton Town
We apologise for the one month delay to this service.
Stratford
I'm new here (but played a bit at Orange a few years back). This is a reliable station for hitting the ground running.
Turnham Green
But only in the rush hour.
Ealing Broadway
Darn it. The trains are packed at this time of day.
Golders Green
I presume I don't need to explain why.
Mildmay Park
Why INJ?
Hounslow West
Good question.
Osterley and Spring Grove
