Please except my humble apologies, My Lady.

[Sam]

Haha!! That's ok!

I guess it is about time we picked the start station for round 1?

I understand the BERC will be sorting on Monday evening

[The Raven]

No Circle line is going to make it interesting!

I've just had an idea for a possible twist for one of the future rounds!

Put simply, none of the stations that are closed are excluded from the randomiser, and any that come up in the 15 must be visited by means other than tube. Proof could be provided by a quick photo outside the station entrance.

I call it the "Engineering Work? Pah!" round.

You know what Matt that's not bad

As discussed yesterday I think we should introduce a 4 hour time limit on the R15 challenge.
It is rare for the challenge to be over 4 hours but in the event of a "bastard" set of stations coming out it could become quite tactical on trying to visit as many stations as possible within the 4 hour window. The main benefit of this ruling in that anyone travelling some distance into London knows that they can complete the challenge by 16:30 and have time for the meet afterwards and to have time to catch a decent train home.

Will the upcoming round on 17th September be a standard or a twist round?

I am guessing twist, the BERC is on hols but due back next week...

[Going Underground]

**bump**

17th September is the next one....

Any thoughts when this will be drawn and possible twists

[greatkingrat]

Judging by the poll we did back in April for R5, I think the twist for the next round should either be the "two lists", or including Zone 3.

My vote goes for the inclusion of zone 3 with a 4 hour time-limit

[Soup Dragon]

what about the Z2/3 challenge excluding Z1? The only station in Z1 is the first one we start from, thereafter you have to leave Z1 and cannot re-enter Z1 until the challenge is complete. Also include the 4 hour limit and if a bastard set of stations come out you attempt to visit as many as possible within the 4 hour window.
