Rules Question:

A rule in a previous thread stated

"You can neither use
a) the same (or logically equivalant) nor
b) the exact opposite (or logically equivalent)
question of a single previous question asked in the same game... "

Now say you are at station A, and i pose the question "Are you not at A?"

You are not not at A. You are infact at A. However we are then not allowed to pose the question "are you at A?".

It is not possible (within this rule) to ask "are you at station A?"

I think is someone asks you if you are at a specific staion then you have to answer that question truthfully......

To eliminate 1 of 350+ stations? To have a guess in a weird way? It's pointless - you may as well ask "Are you at station A" - the answer given will prove just as much and won;t confuse GU :)

BTW, are you at Belsize Park?
No Matt (10/20)

No idea the rules are more difficult than the actual quizzes themselves :!:

The last question wasn't illegal. A previous asked question was are you in zone 1,2. This question is Are you in zones 3-9. This question is not the logical oposite as it is only with other questions do we discover that we are in london. This is therefore not against the rules as written.

So being in London is not assumed?

Are there any stations that are in both zones 2 and 3? That would prove it not to be the logical opposite.
