That's dashed cunning of you Shoggo! Especially as I've dropped my tapioca. But I still have my meerschaum. I implement the Sir Walter Raleigh backflip and make Euston through pipe smoke. DB |

I'm going to invoke the Sporting Addendum of 1943, pay two season tickets, and serve up Wembley Central.

Picks up Chance Card...'Rabbit Hole' Advances four paces and dances the Lobster Quadrille Will you walk a little faster?" said a whiting to a snail.
"There's a porpoise close behind us, and he's treading on my tail.
See how eagerly the lobsters and the turtles all advance!
They are waiting on the shingle — will you come and join the dance?
Will you, won't you, will you, won't you, will you join the dance? Which sends me to The Imagined Village. |

HOLD IT! There's a rule ambiguity. Dear chairthing, is St. Pancras still declared wild? If so, that last move has to be contested on the grounds of the 1922 revision of the Ancient & Modern rules, which clearly declare golden railway tickets as pilfered when played in a "wild" location.
I saw that one coming...

as the winner of the last game i believe the role of chairthing falls to me.
after a lenthy consoltation with the orracle, then my therapist closly followed by an orracle with my consultant i have come to the conlcusion that golden railway tickets are classed as pilfered when played in a "wild" location, ONLY if the player making the move is still in possesion of his top hat but as anders traded his in during the prep work of the play the move is valid, therfore Anders Wins (+34535 cool points) and takes the role of chairthing

The Chairthing has voted.
Anders, as the new chairthing, you have to specify the ruleset for the next game.

Thank you, Mr. Former Chairentity.
For the upcoming set, I declare the Double-Jeopardy version of the Prussian Empire rules of 1900, which, as you all remember, eliminates Nip entirely in favor of double-spoon. Also, all Pullman coaches are fully occupied, so one must sit up all night in the club car.
Have at it!
