Update!

LIMITED TIME EVENT! - Following permission from adtrainz, from now until the end of this month (30th April), the rules of the game will be amended so that you may travel on TfL services (ie LU, DLR, Tramlink).

Go on then - since no-one else seems willing!

Blackpool Pleasure Beach

This is why I've only got 16 points! (That's my story and I'm sticking to it!) :lol:

I have a few questions regarding this:
1) If the last post on the 30th of April is on LT metals, and there is no move using a BR service (eg if at 23:59 on the 30th of April a contestant plays Canons Park), what happens to that round. Is it:
a) abandoned,
b) won by the player playing Canons Park
c) carried on on LT metals, using the first available interchange to BR?

2) Are the Bakerloo and Met stations at Edgware Road to be considered separate stations? Similarly the District and Met stations at Hammersmith.

3) What interchanges are considered valid at Kings Cross / St. Pancras. In normal game play, they have always been treated as separate stations, but as they both have the same Underground station as part of the complex (ie it is possible to transfer from St Pancras BR to Kings Cross St. Pancras LU without the aid of a walk between stations, as it is from Kings Cross BR). By an extension of this logic, if transfer between BR and LUL is permitted at this station, is transfer between say the ECML and MML permitted (an example sequence of moves would be:
Finsbury Park
Kings X St Pancras complex
Kentish Town)?

Thanks for any adjudication, I think it best to ask the question now rather than problems breaking out during gameplay.

I tend to agree with clagmonster - there are potentially many pitfalls with the extension to include TfL. How about a new, seperate game: basically the same as this, but based solely on the official TfL Map?
