More Long Game
help
There has to be one of these, doesn't there?
arrow_circle_up
[Little Jim] There not that obvious. Oh errm Mill Hill Park and be damned.
Moorgate and watch those damn buffers....
Ongar and a quick slip into reverse!
Alperton and sending an LV spike down the Picadilly.
Wrong way, I'm afraid. Sending it *up* the Piccadilly would have made more sense, but as things stand, the very first person your spike hits will be your own good self after it passes around the Heathrow loop.

Of course, this could have been your intention, but it seems unlikely from where I'm sitting. Meanwhile, Eastcote.

Boston Manor, dissipating that spike.
Millwall Junction
Ipswich (yehyehyeh!)
Pall Mall neatly spiking [JLE]! I know now why [LotUS] went that way...
I think I do too. Goodman's Manouvre places me (oddly) in Battersea Rise.
I have but one word for you... Greenwich Park
Err... [YOGF] that's two words... My response is Welsh Harp.
Not a common move, but Preston Road and be damned I say.
Walthamstow Central
Kew Gardens
Hatton Cross (and Richmond furious :))
Belsize Park, sideways. [ZK] HA!
Archway. Not too much sauce
[JLE] Isn't it nice when you can get other people to do your work for you ;) [LJ] Thank you very much.

Now, careful use of the Holtz-Friedel Platform Twist allows me to play a rather powerful Angel. That'll be two silver podumes or four purple tokens from everyone please.

[LotUS] Ah. So I'm not the only person who bears grudges across servers. Pray you never face me in the Lock Cup ;-) In the meantime, one silver and two purples passed over since you seem to be assuming equivalence, and I shall start plotting my revenge in *this* game following my retreat to Uxbridge.
[JLE] is that Metropolitan, Belmont Road, High Street or Vine Street?
Twyford Abbey Halt
Using Sir Albert Nodworths second rule of "low pressure steam condensing" I'll play Cutty Sark and await the arrival of my TEA!
[Ye olde gong farmer] Yes.
Using Pete Watermans defunct "Manx Rule" Union Mills
[widey] 'Fraid you'll be waiting a long time, with this blocking move on Custom House.
[JLE] I can quite imagine that circumstances may contrive themselves to bring about that state of events. I look forward to such a battle with anticipation. I have but you (and other MC luminaries, of course) to thank for my education here.
Ditto
I'll try Walthamstow Central,although I've never heard of any other kind of Walthamstow.
Oh Bugger.........moves back ten paces...........
Has no one read Fanshawe's third? Or Teddy Pendergast's second? Well, Tooting Beck and shame one you! Shame!
Wimbledon. Fifteen-love.
Arriving late, but still well before last orders, I'll play Goodge Street.
Three blue podumes to me, as that's my home, considering Flernson's Amendment is in force after my previous farkle. I'll leave them at the Bank.
Blackfriars, gesticulating wildly.
Wonders if he should move from Shepherd's Bush yet. Decides not to.
Tottenham Court Road, getting out the way of the spike, and adding a vertical block on Bank. Wall yourself away in Custom House all you like, LotUS: keep those blocks building higher and the chances are you'll find yourself on the wrong side of them...
Damn, another missed turn...............has anyone got volume 12 of the rule book, mines missing!
[widey] I have volume 6's, will they do?
South Kentish Town, to you all!
Oh farkle that should have been I have two volume 6's.
West Ham [JLE] You forget about my ruby red podume stack that's pulsing quietly away in a Secret LocationTM. Declaring token boon for all players EXCEPT JLE and Ye olde gong farmer - nothing personal, just that you two are out of position to take advantage.
I'd just bought a nice new token at Hammersmith but ta for the offer LotUS....I might just throw in Krapy Rubsnif for the sheer frivolity of the moment!
I've just run into a bloke called "Cyril" at Lavo. Any ideas?
Dont lie you fucking guy

Following that slight detour through Hackney (where else would you get such *shocking* behaviour?) South Quay DLR
Someone's left their radio on, static interference... though i think what Boolbar said could've been for the Lies game? Deptford Bridge.
aha found volume 12 and invoking Blechfords quantum diversion rule (part 2b).........Tooting Beck
Back after a shocking absence! And what the hell was all that highly intellectual conversation above about? Anyway, making allowances for scurile rogues - White City
No, never White City, not White City, please for the love of David Bellamy not White City!...it can only lead to Kennington....I can feel the tube map wincing...
Blackfriars. [LotUS] Nothing personal intended, I'm sure, and none taken. Purely a matter of circumstance. So, a relatively benign side-straddle here, but a sound defensive block to counter any attempted drivebacks or pincer movements.
Fishtailing to Gunnersbuty - pegging Kew Gardens.
Blimey, what have I wondered into here? White City.
Fenchurch and a quick chat with the ghost of Derek Guyler.....
Finchley Road and Frognal, because I can.
Tottenham Hale for reasons that will become obvious.
Blindingly. Colindale, as I feel it is feeling underused
apropos of nothing ....Russell Square.
Just because I wanted to be the posting person on every game in MC5 this evening.
Aren't you the lucky lot? Non-sequiteurs rule OK.
Matrimony Place because I'm celebrating!
Ickenham. [Angus Prune] Congrats!
After a shockingly long absence, I come in with a move very close to my heart; Bank. Please note the subtle double loop with reverse.
Kew Gardens, with noted lack of subtlety.
The unerlying transmigrated mainline you left open would be perfect for...Kentish Town
Snaresbrook - canceling out previous imposter move.
Kew Gardens, playing a driveback on Tuj, and shunting him firmly into the buffers at Richmond and watching him bounce back past me to Willesden Junction via the North London British Rail line. [Tuj] As LotUS will no doubt enlighten you, I bear cross-server grudges ;-)
Well, funnily enough, thanks to that NLBR detour I can get to Essex Road and quang you. Don't worry.
[Tuj] Yes, I still bear the dizziness from the cross-server loop that JLE shoved me into. And all because of one innocuous comment. I dunno, the quality of MCers today...

Anyway, Shadwell blonking Poisoned Pigeon.

[LotUS] I seem to recall the esteemed JLe and myself having a bit of a coming together back at !York way back when (unless my memory fails me)...
Still, why not bring some competitiveness and enthusiasm into it? Bearing that in mind, I'll *farkle*
Adding craftiness to the bargain with Lizard Street. Although I think I've blonked myself...
i just peed my underwear hows that for being cool yeahhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh
I'd just like to say that edna is nothing to do with me, and I am still perfectly continent. Thank you.
Managing Director I am fucking serious guys, I love to suck off goats, particularly Welsh ones. English ones I just tease.
Laugh you may
But I fucking love it
I can't believe it, they ask me to fax it over and I've faxed it twice already, and then they got the cheek to tell me that the prices are wrong.....now, hang on a minute, no disrespects but, what do they know about cottage doors?...eh?
E=MC squared
Time to shut down the lifts to stations on the Circle, and move safely to Croxley.
Interesting. Oxford Circus (Victoria Line only) - trapped underground for the time being.
Tottenham Court Road from the south. Underground naturally but tunnelling past [LotUS]
Shall go with Gram's Conjunction and slip through the shadows to Marble Arch
I'll play the Schizoid Tangent with... Highgate, which became Archway (Highate), then Highgate (Archway) to end up as Archway...
And, I note, implicitly invoking the Piccadilly Ruling. Just as well I'm not trying to shunt from Ealing Broadway or we could have another Moon Over Morden incident. As things stand, Essex Road, de-quanging.
Simplicity can be beautiful - Highbury & Islington. Now just look at what has happened.
It's... all... opened up. That's quite staggering. Never in my years have I seen such a wonderful reduction as that. All players are back in ground state, the diagonals are open, all barriers are up, power is back on...

So I might as well take advantage and set up anew at Great Portland Street.

Hold on Lotus, I think Boolbar is onto something and I'm just a tadge bit concerned, are you on the Circle or Hammersmith & City? I won't mention District. I thought we had agreed not to mention the "Moredon incident" , but the damage has been done now. As you know I'm not one to point fingers, but, if JLE could just delay the backwash from the de-quanging for a couple of turns. Stroking on a bounce at Gunnersbury
[Inkspot] In fact he's on the Metropolitan, since the District doesn't serve GPS. The logical ramifications of this should be obvious to you. Backwashes be damned, Swiss Cottage, with a semi-inversion.
Hmm. So, am I presuming that, from the Metropolitan I can make it to Edgware Road? That leaves all the diagonals clear!
I'll see your ER and raise you GR or Gloucester Road.
Holland Park staying clear JLE and the diagonals, he is up to something but not sure what, and perhaps in league with Tuj. Or am I just being paranoid?
I'm certainly not in league with Tuj. On the other hand, when am I *not* up to something? MUHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAAAHHH!!!

Sorry, just had to get that evil laugh out of my system, it wasn't because any plan of mine has come to fruitition.

Yet.

Edgware, driving Tuj off-Road.

JLE] That was very naive of Inkspot, wasn't it? Mind you, I can snatch a podume by leaping off-road over to Bounds Green. Funny that.
[Tuj] Ever heard of the "Poisoned Podume Variation" of the Cripplehead Lateral Attack? If not, I believe you're about to...
[JLE] Nasty! Still it leaves me clear to sweep up a few tokens on the Central Line - Woodford with token extension rule through to Epping.
At last, someone with their head screwed on the right way round, and Boolbar straight away sees something in JLE's play. Very mysterious. I need to dig out my Fronskey Diagram again. Attack being the best form of defense Amersham.
JLE] True, I have now. But I believe that when Inkspot dredges up his diagram it will show the optional spike currently in play which delays the PPV of the CLA until 99 years have passed or all players have died, whichever comes first. And before I start to feel smug, I think I'll be at Dollis Hill for a long time anyway...
Avoiding all of these shenanigans at Shadwell.
At your peril LotUS. I have my rather well worn diagram now but no spike! Has Tuj hidden it in one of the folds? Very cunning you old fox. Moving to Bermondsey increasing my podume defences by factor of 0.01.
Inkers! I fear I am unmasked! Hiding my whiskers and sniffing the chicken coup at Leicester Square.
Well, I'm going to enter safely with a Plinge defensive at Chalfont & Latimer. Oh, and I believe that'll have some interesting repurcussions for those on the Circle line...
*wonders why all the green tokens on the Circle Line have disappeared*
*notices that Tuj is suddenly going very green indeed*
*laughs evilly*

Yes, where do you think I've been diverting them to. A severe case of Unwanted Token Loading, methinks - let's see how he gets rid of *that* lot. I'll carry on laughing from a safe distance, namely Loughton.

I can see an oppurtunity here... I invest my podumes in a number of suspect packages which I strew all over the Northern Line, and create an escape for Tuj with Alperton.
