OK, gameplay has become sloppy of late.

I think I'm going to insist on detailed explanations of every move being made just to ensure we're not going off the boil.

So, without further ado, I'm going to nullify all token allocations and subvert zone 3, thus slipping sideways down to:

SOUTH WIMBLEDON

south wimbledon being on the edge and south of the line, i shall nullify zone 4 aswell by extending the final curve of the northern line to cos (x^2/boundary zone 5) sin 4x, where x is the mean frequency modulation of zone 3's fluctuating sawtooth wave.

Zone 3 has a sine-wave, silly. Here's the zone-wave table:

Zone. Wave Type
  1. Cosine
  2. Square
  3. Sine
  4. Sawtooth
  5. Mexican
  6. Seismic
  1. Tidal
  2. Radio
  3. Micro
  4. Shock
Following this, I believe we can ride the ensuing shock wave all the way to...
SOUTH KENSINGTON

ah, but you forget that when a zone is immobilised it takes control of all oscillators (Stovold 3rd Edition 18.4: Spoon Controlled Oscillators and the effects of Zone Inversion and Immobilisation.)

i will therefore invert the phase of said shock wave and apply a cosine shaped modulator to it (being in zone 1, it's practically necessary, but i'm sure you knew that.) on top of sacrificing a red token in threat to add some stereowide right angled flanging, i would have to end up at

WATFORD JUNCTION

picking up a purple, blue and gold token, and selecting omega. the next move should therefore be obvious.

Bloody hell guys, you've taken all the fun out this:

God, mention tidal phases and someone has to take it to extremes don't they?

Remember what happed LAST time we ended up outside of the Earth's atmosphere. Since we are a good distance from Zone 1, however, I should be able to use the gravitational pull of the sun to sling shot us round and ...

Ah, here we are:

ALPHA CENTAURI

Planet Earth is now out of bounds due to Barker's Second Maxim.

Your reason being?

Being that Barker's Second Maxim permits travel only to alternate galaxies for three rotations immediately following play of the Moon, of course!

Furthermore its encompassment clause (regarding relativity) will allow me to cheekily play

CRAB NEBULA

because I have a Cosmic token!

I take a step closer to home, henceforth moving to:

SIRIUS

M51 is actually a specific charted star. It's so named because it's the 51st brightest star in some area. I just remembered the name.

ORION.

Yes, part of the Sword Belt I believe.

I have the perfect counter to that!
