I would argue that as my post came before the adjudication post I wasn't at fault posting Redruth then, but I can't be bothered!

Cripes, looks like we've posted the same station at roughly the same time! ;)

New leg to start at Islip

A Challenger, I posted Redruth in order for the leg to proceed as you had posted too early into the leg following your win.

Backontrack, you were removed from being an adjudicator for valid reasons after discussions between the other adjudicators at the end of you 3 month probation period. I would say, personally, and I will be very clear in this point in that it is my opinion and my opinion alone, that some of problems with the game since your removal, is partly down to your poor game play as you seem to have taken umbrage at being removed as an adjudicator.

What's an 'adjudicator'? Some sort of forum status? Sounds cool!

An Adjudicator is a member of the Forum who over sees the running of the Quiz and to ensure fair play and to advise the contestants.

The current Adjudicators are Buttsy, Clagmonster, Darren R and myself.

The past leg, J-2739 posted Falmouth Town after listing the valid Penmere, so isn't that invalid?

I can see what happened there. J-2739 made a valid posting of Penmere, then you made another posting of Penmere, but as J-2739 had no need to strike it through, his being the first and therefore the valid posting of Penmere.

Because your second posting of Penmere still remained un-struck, unless any contestant looked carefully at the double posting that had been made, they would normally make the following posting that follows on from Penmere, viz. Falmouth Town. Here I would have seen how matters had come about, normally, but I could make no comment as I was not online at that time.

An extract from the rules of this quiz

Rule 10......Once a leg has been completed and the first post of a new leg started, the previous leg cannot be edited, under any circumstances.

Perhaps this is an opportune time to show Rule 10 of the quiz.

Whoops! My apologies for missing the double posting on the previous leg. I promise to pay better attention in future. Happy to take 0 points for that leg.

Doesn't that mean I can't strike it through, or shouldn't?
Shipton

I think that those last three are.
