Guess that can be allowed if contraflows are inverted, and to avoid Triangulation, Dollis Hill will be wild. Be warned Tooting Bec has been declared.

Noted. Having just spun a 6* I must advise against any further moves that lead towards further Northern line advancements.

I'm playing the King's Gambit.

That must surely be the winning stroke.

Thrown a double which puts Wapping off limits and gives me Barking.

You're forgetting that Rule 42.1 excludes any move changes following a new playing joining the game. Delia can of course overturn this rule but must offer to forego a move concurrent with the previous round, notwithstanding her subsequent move.

Apologies, your quite right. The Burlington amendment was deleted in the 2001 update unless the North Circular variation is allowed. I'm still Barking.

No problem, its an easy mistake to make. Barking is a good move which leaves me with a dilemma in how to follow such a blinder. If I recall correctly, Barking excludes me playing anything on any line other than the Metropolitan? In which case I must request a bye.

Neat move! We still have Delia's kings gambit hanging over us but I'll risk the double parallel shift and take a parking manoeuvre. Vauxhall!

I think the point of allowing multiple posting is to get BF and Zen-Ray more clicks, views, publicity and cyberspace - maybe?
