Damnit, Sean Patrick, you insufferable cad!

Pinner.

If nothing world-shattering happens, it's Pinner in one, two, three, four and so on ad nauseam, thanks to Sean Patrick O-Byrne, who initiated the Pinner Backflip.

I think, that if one uses the St.Albert Magnus Stratagem, and thus exploits the Hainault Parallel Passant, one can "Free the Pinner" and thus proceed...



Indeed...

I believe that the Ian Fleming Double 0 move can be used to get out of this one.  The only problem with that is that while it saves us from the Dollis Hill Loop it does mean that I can't win this game.  Oh, well, for the Greater Good.

I hope you realize that a Double 0 move automatically reduces the track gauge to 16.5mm! Now look what you have done!

If I may, using the Suez Impediment ruling from the 1974 Congress to bring myself into the game at this stage.

Warren Street - British Museum and orthogonals are now in play unless previously in spoon.

Invoking a rule anachronistic to the used ruleset? Normally you'd not be permitted to do that, but Wells's Circumvention Clause allows you to do that, provided you pay a green token to your friendly neighbourhood Martian.

Do we still need to settle this even if it appears we've escaped the dreaded Dollis Hill Loop?

We Pinner Backflipped right into the Dollis Hill Loop. I still remember the Great Exhibition Game of 1851, that wasn't ovewr until 1852 thanks to Pinner Backflips, Dollis Hill Loops and the dreaded Tower of London Spiral, thankfully abolished with the 1884 Mark Lane Addendum.

No duels, unless you are travelling on in opposite directions on the Circle Line, and even then it can only be with furled umbrellas...
