Ouch. Gentlemen, I believe you've gotten slightly too exotic in your maneuverings, and lost sight of the basics. For with that move to Cannon Street, I can simply use a Lateral Continuance and carry right along the Circle line to: King's Cross St. Pancras and MC in one, barring an appeal to the Local Council of the IMCS by two-thirds of current players.

[aliendial]

On behalf of 2/3 of the other players, /me hires local counsel to submit an appeal to the Local Council, citing the extremely prejudicial and dangerous precedent that would be set by allowing Drkra37's play to stand, and seeks discontinuance of the Lateral Continuance, an injunction against further moves in that direction, and begs the Council's indulgence.

If the Council grants the appeal, we roll back to CANNON STREET, where play resumes.

[DrKra37]

Oh, very well. I had hoped that 2/3 would be an unnatainable majority.

But since I was apparently mistaken, in the interest of promoting unity and saving the time we would ordinarily have to wait for the Council's decision, be it in my favor or otherwise, I revoke my move. Cannon Street it is, and I miss a turn.

[Macavity]

Right, so whose turn is it then?

[idlemichael]

Yours again Mac. That Cannon Street play of yours a few moves back insists you have to go again within five plays. DrKra37 will have to do the same if we're using the standard notation.

We've been waiting aaaaaaages too!

[Macavity]

All rioght then, it's time for the Anticitizen One Conjunction, which takes us to . . . hrm . . . let me check . . .

*Macavity flips through his rulebook and consults a tube map to determine the next move.

Ah yes . . . Embankment!

And please note that this does not invoke the Full Circle Sudden Death or Reverse Poll rules, as the last time Embankment was mentioned it was as a point of transfer and not a stop.

So, MC in 2 (or 4, if the G-Man interferes . . . )

[GasparLewis]

I don't see what the Half-Life series has anything to do with this moveset but...



Oh, no, by all means; I'm still basking in my glow; be back in next game.

Do it to it, Mac!

[DrKra37]

Well, I might as well get my obligation to move out of the way. Preventing MC is going to be difficult, but with Willoughby's Fair Day Gambit I may have a chance. Therefore, I play the most out-of-the-way station I can think of, namely:

Disneyland Hotel, Anaheim, California, USA I justify such an outlandish move with the rationale that the game is getting fairly intense, and the weather in California is lovely this time of year, so for a break in the stressful play, it's off to Disneyland we go!

[DrKra37]

Hmmm... No replies in five days, eh? I claim an extra turn, then, by Murray Obfuscation Clause, since nobody else seems to have a move.

Mornington Crescent it is!!!
