Are you afraid my software is smarter than you are?

No, but I think it's not the way of playing this game.

This had better not be in late May. I really don't want to ruin my final exams at university!

Yes, but I wouldn't recommand June or later couse the temperatures in the Sahara are even lower then on a average tube train.

20 may 2006 will be on a saturday. Will this be a good day for a Zone1 challenge. or does anyone prefere Mon-Fri or Sunday (note that the W&C line will be CLOSED by then) It's just an Idea.

I have a feeling it ought to be a weekday, as last year.
I also think it should be EARLIER in may than the 20th, as it is VERY likely that I will have loads of exams in that week.

It should really be a Friday, justifying the right to go out and get utterly pissed, and wake up the next morning with a huge hangover before collapsing back onto the bed.
So there.

That's another reason not to have it in the middle of exam season, Chris!
JLE, I'm up for having it on that day. The earlier, the better!

Weekends would be a bad idea as there is a good chance that part of the network would be shut for engineering work.

Friday works well for me, and I'm not all that bothered about when, I'll take you on whenever
Probably the last time I'm on here before Christmas so have a good one everyone.

I agree with a Friday! Either in April or May. Tho Id do that March date if it were chosen.
And I think sticking to 2005's rules is the best option.
With one thing to add, if St James's Park is drawn, we draw the start point again. Can't start in the same place two years running!
