Default Re: Mornington Crescent

Illegal move, I'm afraid; Stovold, page 5. (unless you're using Stovold II, that is. On the other hand, the general consensus nowadays seems to be that Stovold II did not actually constitute a revision of the original rules, but was merely based on a copy of the original Stovold, that was found on a bench near Hyde Park after a heavy downpour. It has since been ascertained that the ink in those days displayed very little of the waterproof qualities that the current varieties possess. As a result of this, the dispute between ST I and ST II followers has long since been amicably resolved, although I'm told that small pockets of ST II die-hards remain, to this day, scattered across the globe, usually in remote, near-inhabitable areas that maintain very little contact with the outside world.)

So, my move: Hackney Wick
