Ouch, tough luck Sim. I haven't really been playing ALL day, just dipped in now and then. I've been working on my Entry for the Guide in between duties here at the study centre.
Anyway, you could probably do with a nice 
or maybe a 
and 
while we transport you to the delights of...

OK, the will still be here when you get back I guess.
Now I think it's time for some 221b rule...
Arnos Grove

Simetra Posted Jan 18, 2007
dam, I hadn't realized we could use the 221b rule with the extended map, but yes now you have played that it is quite obvious
so I will neatly side step with

Uncle Ghengis Posted Jan 19, 2007
Smart move. I can't see a way out of it. I think I'm forced back to:
Ickenham
But at least I can pick up a yellow counter. Heh!
2010 advanced game Underground<>Overground
el D – for the sake of brevity and out of respect for my fellow Glums Posted Jan 19, 2007
Ah UG, what is life if not a collection of yellow counters?
And for me? So near and yet so far...
Euston Square. 
2010 advanced game Underground<>Overground
Uncle Ghengis Posted Jan 19, 2007
But I thought this particular counter was a very attractive shade of yellow. Like custard perhaps? I wonder what I can do with all of these things? Maybe I could make a mosaic?
Plaistow.
(No counter)

el D – for the sake of brevity and out of respect for my fellow Glums Posted Jan 19, 2007
Mmmm – custard – now you're talking.
And since we're talking yellow...
Canary Wharf.
2010 advanced game Underground<>Overground
Simetra Posted Jan 19, 2007
well as some of you may remember from past games I have the legendary Burnt Oak counter which I will play now

el D – for the sake of brevity and out of respect for my fellow Glums Posted Jan 19, 2007
I really thought you'd done it again Sim – then I realised the true value of the counter! So...

Simetra Posted Jan 19, 2007
does Ikky know about this game yet, maybe one of us should leave a message in his home space, that should spice the game up a bit(and make it shorter with his no nonsense use of the finishing gambit)

What's this then, I'm sorry I haven't a cluedo?

Whoops! You slipped in there while my back was turned, Sim. I thought I was following UG. No Matter, I think SBM still stands from there.
2010 advanced game Underground<>Overground
Simetra Posted Jan 19, 2007
what are the chances of that, me playing H 5 and you en passant with SBM
that means I can play Bayswater which is now trumps

What a rare turn of events! That leaves me with anti-clockwise I guess so, with a Napoleon manoeuvre, I give you
