Mornington Crescent

[chickenfeet]

The locations of today's terrorist "incidents" in London, along with those from two weeks ago have now been fed into our local supercomputer Deep Goat. By mapping the locations to a seven dimensional non-Riemannian representation of London's public transport system (the minimum degree of complexity required to represent it's underlying randomness), Deep Goat has concluded that the next attack will inevitably take place in or around Mornington Crescent.

I suggest that anyone looking dodgy should be challenged to a game of Mornington Crescent, or perhaps a tourney to counter the effects of beginner's luck. That'd show the nasty terrorists what they're dealing with.

Maybe we should start a Mornington Crescent community for the playing of the game

I believe the (rather quiet) morningtoncresc might be what you seek...

Cool, I haven't had a good game of Mornington Crescent for years! Thanks for that.

Runs off to join the society....

Oh dear - that was the 1st thing I thought about when I heard about this new bunch too.

Game of terrorism = No Rules.

Deep Goat indeed :)

Surely that depends on what rules you're playing by. If you're using the standard version maybe, but I understand that the Georgian-Windsor based rules makes the next target Lancaster Square, which is unfortunate as the station is currently under suspicion of being closed for refurbishment.

I tried to explain the rules, theories and splinter cells of Mornington Crescent to an American friend and failed miserably.
