Zone 1
Umm, I'm new to all this running around the tube lark, so forgive my ignorance. I haven't got a team; do I need to be in one? I presume that all the relevant rules and regulations will be put somewhere prominent for us to read?

2. Participants may complete the challenge alone, or in a team.
3. The starting time will be the moment the doors close at the starting station (to be picked at random on the day).
4. The finishing time will be the moment at which the doors are fully opened at the finishing station.
5. The winning team shall be the team that wins.

How do you know about fight club?Nutteronabus wrote:[insert that bloody Fight Club pun here, and feel smug about it]
It is worth noting that the point of this event is to have fun, and that it doesn't really matter whether you win or not. Be honest.

And I can confirm that I will not be there either this year, mainly due to not being in the country at all at the time! No idea about Neil though.
I keep getting the odd person asking me if there'll be a Zone 1 this year though, and I keep poinging them towards these forums - I think you'll have plenty of people/interest - but Chris, get something up on a webpage soon!

Hmm... the reason for the single-line-starting-stations-only thing was so that Jeck could start everyone easily, which would not be AS possible using every station.
One way around this would be to draw a particular platform out of a hat, start the clocks officially when the first train departs from that platform, whereupon anyone not taking that train would begin running to the platform of their choice.

You're more than welcome to join me and Andrew...!tubeguru wrote:It would appear my erstwhile partner is buggering off and leaving me on my own
So I'll do it on my own I think.
Anyway, I never really saw the point of Jack setting off the stopwatch, especially given that he wasnt able to be there at the end for anybody..
I think picking out any station (bar St. James's Park and Vauxhall) from the hat is just as acceptable a method.
