I'll concede. I can't really complain; I have already won a leg today, after all.

Lazonby and Kirkoswald

Could we hold this for a minute?

After Havant, it gets messy:
Bedhampton --> Warblington --> Hilsea AND/OR Emsworth.

How you get to clagmonster's Warblington from Bedhampton is a mistery to me, neither do I yet understand Paul's emsworth.
Reinstating stations without clarifying in the same post isn't helping with clarity either for me; then it just looks like a weird move.

That posting of Emsworth had already been struck through, if you refer to my posting and I even added a footnote.

At the time I was writing that, you hadn't done that yet, and didn't notice it straight away after posting.

I'll assume we're at Hilsea as follow-up from Bedhampton, as Clagmonster's move is impossible and possible simul-post.

Therefor, I'll go Fratton

Wow, three different postings of Havant in the space of one page. :shock:

TO CLARIFY:

HAVANT has been played, originally by myself, after the leg's start at Liss. Petersfield I played, followed by Rowland's Castle and my posting of Havant.

BEDHAMPTON and HILSEA have been played validly after this. Paul Sidorczuk posted Bedhampton, and DasLunatic responded with Hilsea, though only after clagmonster's posting of

WARBLINGTON. This station was not played validly, as there are no timetabled services (as of the May 2015 timetable change) that run directly from Bedhampton to Warblington.

EMSWORTH was posted by Paul Sidorczuk after Warblington, as he likely intended it to follow this posting.
HOWEVER:

NEITHER WARBLINGTON NOR EMSWORTH HAVE BEEN POSTED VALIDLY. POSTINGS OF THESE STATIONS ARE STILL VALID FROM A STATION WHICH THEY CAN BE REACHED FROM ON A NON-STOP SERVICE FROM THEIR EAST.

BOTH BEDHAMPTON AND HAVANT HAVE BEEN POSTED VALIDLY, AND THUS CANNOT BE PLAYED AGAIN IN ANY CIRCUMSTANCES. SIMILARLY, HILSEA HAS BEEN PLAYED VALIDLY, SO CANNOT BE POSTED AGAIN.

WE ARE CURRENTLY AT HILSEA
.

*takes off co-opted adjudicator hat*


I play Fratton.

EDIT:

GAAH!

Once again, I fall foul of simulposting. This makes a lot more sense if read in context, after Paul's posting (no. #79214 in this thread).

I play Portchester, with its famous castle.
