bottle challenge

[jonny]

i did the bottle challenge today in 2 hours 25 minutes and 25 seconds but i got home and noticed a problem.
On this map edgware road (bak) and marylebone appear inside the bottle, but here they are outside the bottle. I didn't do them. In the challenge do they count as inside or outside?

They are exempt due to being outside of the circle physically. See this 396Kb PDF file.

I disagree, the stations should be included, as they are within the Circle Line on the tube map (which is how the "bottle" gets it name).

We need Tubuguru to adjudicate!

However, since 'the bottle' first got posted on my site here:

I'll call it, and say that because the map their shows Edgware Road as being inside, then you have to do it!

When I did the bottle in 2hrs 17m 40s, I did both Edgware Road (Bak) and Marylebone. There was a slightly hairy moment because I did that run with the minimum of research and it took me a minute or so to figure out which way to leave one Edgware Road to run to the other.

Therefore, I'd say it is in, but I would, wouldn't I!

Well, the map I have put at the top of the Bottle Challenge page (http://www.tubechallenge.com/circle_bottle.html) shows ER Bakerloo INSIDE the circle line.

I would say you have to do what THAT map shows only.
