The Biscuit Game
help
A classic parlour game, based on the rules of MC. And, in fact, the winning move shares its initials with said station. This should be familiar to anyone present at ISIHAC2, and easy to pick up for anyone else.

Thank goodness - all the discussion about what the Biscuit Game actually was had led me to some quite disturbing speculations.

Anyway, opening with Club, Mint denied.

That calls for a Bourbon, invoking brokenness for three terms.
[Dunx] I had visions of an edible version of the coin game ... how innocent of me.
Opening my tin with a Fruit Shortie declaring the wrong crumbs on the Hammersmith and McVitties Line.
Custard Cream invoking soggy mess following prolonged dunking.
Btd]You have a map! I may have to sit a while in this easy chair, in the meantime there is always a cup of tea to be had.
Ginger Nuts. Declaring a strange and inappropriate friskiness.
Parkin, home at Simmers of Hatton's Butter biscuits
Shifting to the Family Circle line with a Jammie Dodger. Now get out of that!
Chocolate Digestive (Plain) Bistrict Line only
Butter Crunch Neopolitan terminus

Um, I was taking notice of the instructions for the game, and not what you were saying, JLE... hope i haven't b*gg*r*d things up.
Duchy's Original's, with teabags on the Jubilee Line for the next 24 years.

Declaring nuts!
But Jaffa Cakes aren't biscuits!
flerdle] Don't panic! Now that rab's kindly posted the map, the winning move should be clear.
Diverting to particularly crisp and sickly Café Noir.
Leaving me with no option but Boaster.

[UK] Oh good. Digestive, relief invoked
Well, I'm going to play Milano, which is well off the map to the west.
HobNobs - and subsequently name-drops.
Raising the stakes with Viscount.
Gypsy Creams Radical, I know.
Coconut Ring, cumbly discomfort invoked. [CdM] Those are never as nice as I hope they will be.
Penguin, home somewhere between Viscount and Malted Milk.
Nice Atkins revoked
Nice one, ZK. You've just forced a marshmallow centred bifurcation, Tunnocks Tea-Cake/Wagon Wheel
Chocolate Digestive (Milk)/Chocolate Digestive (Plain), Aaargh!!!
Taking a plainer approach Cream Crackers/Ryvita, anyone got some cheese?
Water biscuite/Matso's. I feel that we're starting to test the boundaries of what constitutes a biscuit. Doesn't sugar have to be involved?
That would be /biscuits Doh!
Butter Osbourne highly dunkable ghost biscuits invoked
Starting off at Lemon Puff, home at (the) Ritz - traditional for latecomers.
Oh-oh, that means I have to be a little more direct: Club
Oh! In that case, Sports, featuring stick men.
Tuc. It was an unusual decision to name their product after the Trades Union Congress.
Veering west again with Animal Crackers
This may be an opportunity to play my trump. Gingerbread Man. Consider yourselves in munch. Ha!
Nice one, Chalky.
Yeh, Nice loop, too.
Hob Nob (Caramel)... (I like this one!)
[nights] You must have spent a lot of proofs-of-purchase to break that loop. Anyway, still off the map, Macadamia and White Chocolate Chunk Cookie.
Bourbon
How about some plain Rich Tea?
Fruit Shortcake with extra dead flies to increase the crumb value along Hammersmith and McVitties.
Leaving Jammy Dodgers wide open.
Hoping that a Nice / Club will aid me in decreasing the presently high CR (Cracker Ratio).
How about afternoon tea at the Ritz?
I'm going to go out on a limb here...Oreos
Which opens the cross-channel option Palmiers - (Pâtisserie declared)
you realise this game has caused me to bellow BISCUITS! at the top of my lungs in a bar in Bath recently? Buuter Crunch
Gingernut [nights] Bravo!
Taking the short-cut, Iced Gem.
Garibaldi - Peak Frean's Trotsky Assortment invoked
Abernethy lithp enforced
Perhaps we could liven the party up with some Sprits.
Iced Gems [squabbling toddlers declared]
Party Rings nostalgia invoked
Feeling colourful, pink wafers.
Custard Cream declaring BISCUITS! again.
Brownies, cake inversion with slightly suspicious ingredient invoked.
Regressing, and picking up six Iced Gems.
aaaah ... Abbey Crunch... the bestest biscuit ever.
Thin Arrowroot. The call of BISCUITS! has been heard across the land.
Making a stand for pervisity with a diet Ryvita.
Blast. Garibaldi, forced.
