Rowly Posted December 9, 2003 Author Share Posted December 9, 2003 Ah, there seems to be much confusion here. We will clarify the team rules: 1: on entering the game you shall join the appropriate colour that you background on. You will be penalised if you tactically background and forfeit your teams next go and face thrutting. 2: The opposing team shall not move until following debate between team members. This shall be marked by pronouncing your colour, followed by your suggested move. Once your move has been debated and agreed by another team member then "leaves" will be off and the move made in UPPERCASE. N.B. If a team is parrallel to the opposition then the debate must be limited to 30seconds. All other times it may flow freely until a final UPPERCASE call. 3: The opposing team MUST look away from the screen when the opposition is in debate. Should they accidentally see the debate then a penalty will be made. Simple as that Owner of *thumbup*The Wombat membership number 10765 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rowly Posted December 9, 2003 Author Share Posted December 9, 2003 Mrs GTD, sadly SHADWELL in uppercase has given grey the guage advantage, their turn, ho-hum. I'm sure it's not retrievable.

Buda Posted December 9, 2003 Share Posted December 9, 2003 Rowly, you have not yet called your 'fat lad in goal', please can you rectify this grave error as it is in danger of invoking the 'lack of fat lad in goal' procedure, darlington express april '53 and voiding your previous turn, alos it is foolhardy to play without a buffer unit.

Buda Posted December 9, 2003 Share Posted December 9, 2003 grey: having looked in nesbitt's almanac - 87 edition i would quote: para 56.7 providing however, that the above limitations shall not apply to any liabilities assumed by the guage under the articles headed termination, Taxi's and Taxi Exemption Certificates, Liens, Patents and other propriety rights, and cluses 1,3 and 4 of the article headed Responsibilities and Inversions and shall not apply to any moves arising from any cause of action notified before the issue of the certificate of cohesion Iwould suggest that we take a flyer and call marble arch ... any thoughts or comments?

Meldrew Posted December 9, 2003 Share Posted December 9, 2003 Marble Arch would be a sound move, Buda, but can I suggest a down-beat signal reversal with dereliction to Aldwych? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Buda Posted December 9, 2003 Share Posted December 9, 2003 sounds like a plan is forming, any more views? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

scooby dooby doo Posted December 9, 2003 Share Posted December 9, 2003 which team am I on 🤔 HOOPY R706KGU Hoopylight R Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
I.Mupferit Posted December 9, 2003 Share Posted December 9, 2003 Grey Hmmm, I'm inclined to look at Pimlico as a first option but quite happy to go with Meldrews suggestion although I would then opt for a double 'slingback' parallel with Lambeth North.

Buda Posted December 9, 2003 Share Posted December 9, 2003 the team list is on the first page, hoopy had to go on teh grey team to make up numbers, if he didnt there would be six hundred and fory nine players on the white team and 4 on the grey, which is not fair, any way hoopies in goal.

Boonie Hound Posted December 9, 2003 Share Posted December 9, 2003 Just flicking through the trusty MC Almanack - it mentions the H G Wells Wormhole principle which clearly staes that there will be penalties and even the withdrawal of certain bridging moves if a team takes too long.

chrisb Posted December 9, 2003 Share Posted December 9, 2003 Grey -> Aha, I see that I am also on the grey team, and that you have indeed sorted the teams in accordance with section 22B of the Baker Street ruling of c.1941 In that case, I must consider the forthcoming move with added caution....

chrisb Posted December 9, 2003 Share Posted December 9, 2003 Grey -> Not sure about how to follow this, but I feel that we can trap the white team in the classic hedging and edging arrangement, first exibited by McCredy Vs Matinson in '63. Therefore I would recomend a parralel jump to Regents Park? Any other suggestions team? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rowly Posted December 9, 2003 Author Share Posted December 9, 2003 I will be the fat lad (it means I can stand about and not get out of breath). I will have Steveb and Boonie as defenders. White> Regents Park is clearly a bold move on greys part. We could use Oxford or Baker as a defensive blocking tactic and parry or go for the stop-hit and play something equally daring, say Bethnall Green. Fortune favours the brave, methinks.....
