Stovold's defense (2nd revision)is available after the first round. Monuments score double. Anything on the black line for more than two turns will put you in nib. I'll start:
[b]Dagenham Heathway[/b]
Angel
It's not really as funny without Tim Brooke Taylor is it?
Bank (if pressed to move)
Billy...is that your go??
Dagenham heathways- using Stovold's defense (2nd revision) reversal rules- cheeky but sulrey ok?
[i]"Dag Heath is only to be used once, apon the opening. Like toilet paper."[/i] - Sir F.Drake 1568
Stovoid's was banned under the Rushton ruling of '79.
Let's keep this amongst ourselves, eh?
But, if you insist, Watford Hospital.
Not built yet obviously, but you will play dangerously.
Back to [b]Embankment[/b].
Applying the inverse square principle, Baker St.
well that rules out a quick Waterloo ๐ฅ

Double up and apply Walsh's 3rd variation ? Think that gets you there.
Dont like the modern game myself, Give me a shout if you plan a tudor court rules in the near future (plague permitting)....
Isn't Walsh's 3rd variation open to being quashed when Baker Street is the station of origin?
Where were we, Baker Street?
In that case Hatton Cross, Kings Cross, Charing Cross! Ha!
allthepies - that would mean skirting Wimbledon and it's too cold outside

Don't be daft, you've triple crossed yourself - illegal under the 2nd revision.
Now take all your clothes off and stand in the corner.
Baker St - Ickenham.
Get out of that and stay fashionable.

Sorry, didn't read the OP properly! Didn't realise we were using Stovold's defense.
I'm more used to playing Morningside Crescent in Edinburgh, still struggling a bit with the London rules.
.
Is Ickenham to Moorgate allowed?

Pretty much the same, but you never look your opponents in the eye and pretend to read your paper if a fight breaks out.
Shock and awe time!
[b]Limehouse[/b].
does the crossrail addendum apply yet? if so, canary wharf.
edit: you can't get to limehouse until a speke's elbow has been played.
Victoria
Hannover connvention 1911 ruling on the triple underpass with bells.
right back atcha! ๐
Ah but Limehouse was ruled exempt from Speke's after a contentious 2009 challenge!
I didn't like 2009. Too many changes brought in by the radicals. Like 20:20 cricket
And I hope that we're not allowing DLR anyway - things went downhill after that ruling. I still reckon there was something underhand about it all - big money I reckon.
Northfields (purple)
Ooh, MC, can I join in from a branch line please?
I'll take an inverse shunt from Northfields to Elephant & Castle. Diagonals are now wild (as you all know).

I believe the Edinburgh Defence is still valid here, though.
this game is very contentious.
Are you new here?
Just going to sneak in with Hatch End to open this back up a bit
and get it back on track.
waterloo.
Bounds Green.
Cockfosters.
[b]Goodge[/b] Street
EDIT: via Belsize and Swiss
Bugger. I wanted to go to Goodge Street!
.
Not much of a choice now really, I pretty much have to go to Kilburn.
Yes, I know technically I could have Picadilly, but that would be a bit of a daft move.
.
Kilburn
Bristol Parkway.
Got you!
Oxford Street. ๐
Oxford Street? Allowed, but not a winning move.... it's after 3.30.
A double sideways blag to Tooting Beck should confuse a few though.
I see what you did there.
Chancery Lane.
Hmm, that restricts me a bit.
Tottenham Court Road.
*polite ripple of applause*
Barnes South Side.
(& I think youll notice Ive avoided the water taxi jam that is Putney Marsh, clever if i do say so myself...)
Not really, remember Alex is in Tottenham and Cougar on Chancery Lane, you would have struggled to get to Putney even if you had wanted to!
Dollis Hill, don't laugh. I'll be stuck at Kilburn else.
Err... aren't you in Nib Flashy?
