gil: <Wait for it> Harrow-on-the-Hill There. I think I've done it! (Jeremiah Crudpuppy's DH Rescue kit - A painful but necessary operation akin to extracting the appendix via the throat) Someone try a straddle to a Bakerloo station, will you? Any other line will just plunge us back into the mälström of DH.
Herr Bratsche: [gil] Happy to oblige, old bean. Willesden Junction ought to fit the bill.
Huxley:West.... uh oh.... oh no!....Dollis Hill damn and blast!
TDS: Wait... we can still pull it out! The TDS impersonator above (it wasn't me, genuinely) must have deposited at least fifty red tokens at Totteridge and Whetstone! Surely... we can finish this off...!
gil: Well done, all, It just remains for me to say Mornington Crescent. [Herr Bratsche] Nice to have a steady hand in the game. [Huxley] Ouch, you nearly dropped the ball there. Thank heavens for.. [TDS] Nice intercept.
MC Server: Game won by gil.
gil (Winner's Comments): Quite envigorating towards the end, but that was a long haul indeed, and I, for one, shan't be keen for another DHL in the near future.
Huxley: [gil]Sorry 'bout that - my tokens were working against us there. I need to be more careful with token latency in future. But a good recovery and a very tidy win.
gil: [Huxley] I gathered you were having a hard time. You wouldn't believe what that rescue kit cost me!
Néa: [gil] Well played indeed. You certainly deserved to win, after going through that!
Rich: Congratulations. I lost track of my LV, and couldn't work out Becks either. :-(
CdM: Congratulations. (Just doing my bit to get that DH excess off the top of the screen...)
Kevan: Masterful stuff, gil, all the more impressive for achieving it solo.
Kevan: And one more sentence, to get rid of the lunacy from TDS (or some other regular player who had a grudge against him, of course).
Herr Bratsche: Becks? Schmecks! Willesden J has got me out of lots of holes before. The good news is that we all have token stacks three miles high to carry forward to the next game...
Dan: It definitely was not TDS. At the risk of going all authoritarian, I think that a real attempt to masquerade as another player is cause for restricting someone's access to "read only", if not blocking them entirely. The fact that one doesn't have to register and use passwords on these servers does indicate that it's a trust thing. Seriously pretending to be someone else, not just as a joke but in order to misdirect blame for an obnoxious move, breaks that trust, and I will block anyone who does it.
Gramit: Congratulations. As a beginner player, I could deal with Dollis Hill, but when the play finally escaped, I found myself lost. Pity, really...
Barry the Time Sprout: Hello, stranger! I imagine the trouble is you've been accessing from the archive, the home of expired games. What you want is the main page, where there are active games galore. (It's linked at the very bottom of the archive page, as well.) Hope to see you in an active game soon. I shall repeat this message in all the games you've posted in, in the hopes of increasing your chances of seeing it.
aunty dollis: You is gonna lose suckers.Don't u know wot us Dollishillions r like?
