Absolutely not! :shock: We are playing a very serious game here, and too many such remarks will not sit well with the players. Surely for the information age literate person, it should be possible to obtain some useful information about the nature, rules and habits of the Mornington Crescent culture...

It is!

Isn't this so much better than American "Football"?

Yes, Goodge Street's the one. Otherwise it would have to have been knip or MC in two This way, however... :-k Let's see what we can do with Moorgate [spoiler]Goodge Stret was indeed the only one with which Heid culd avoid knip or have me move to Mornington Crescent directly. The move i called the st...

Yeah, that happens - I thought I had sticks at BAUT in Deep Knip once and forgot about a new stratagem first employed in the 2005 World Championship - he slammed home to MC n one move. Man, that hurt a lot.

Earls Court . [spoiler]I'm trying to tempt the other players into using the Circle Line, without leaving them a clear opening.[/spoiler] Now that little trick was cheap , Heid, just cheap [spoiler]This is about the oldest trick in the book - you use the Circle Line if and only if you have a clear o...

It doesn't any more. It's gone.

I wish I could count a llama among my friends.

Chapeau!

Hmmm, maybe

Finsbury Park 8)

I will say Mornington Crescent in 2. Not yet, man, not yet: That would have been possible (I know, the old wag the dog twice stratagem) only with Heid still in rucksack, which I ended with my move to Oval (by Second line change Commandment), and there is that free line change after it - never seen ...

Considering the troubles it's having at the moment you wouldn't even know if it's still therewhen you come to visit next time

Hah! Make you sweat...

Oval

Hmmm, 59 %, and I've lived here all my life.
Probably because they confuse being German with following certain Bavarian folklore. But doesn't everyone...?

Du schaffst es! Und dann mußt Du Deutsch lernen...

I wish I could use the night for some stargazing instead of... you know.

You didn't. It was a week ago.

I wish all this forum nonsense wouldn't distract me from revising for my exam...

Well what could he possibly do with domineering moderatrices like these?

Not quite.

London Bridge

Yeah, and all the woo-woos would go I told you so.


I wish there would be more clear nights where I live.

O.K., so he didn't jump anymore because you already trampled him

I wish that evil lung doctor exam wasn't about to happen next Friday.

Funny you say that about Arneb's relative brightness. I would have guessed it is far less than 2.5 It must be because I am in Germany and observing from 49° N, where anything at delta -20 ° is bound to look dim because of the proximity of the horizon. Now that you mention it, the constellation was a...

Uuh-hu, you are getting close to MC... How about I don't like that and steer you away from it:

Ealing South

Still keeping Heid in my rucksack...

So you are a hare Well yes. Arneb, or al-Arnab in the original Arabic, means hare. Arneb is the star alpha leporis, the brightest (ha!) in the constellation Lepus, the hare . You find the constellation, a suitably dim one (ha!), due South of Orion. Sweet reference to the niockname my parents gave m...
