Re: Where Am I? Quiz 10
Does that mean it has to be strung out to at least the 15th question before any guess can be made, even if the set of stations possible has already been reduced down to 1 single one?

Re: Where Am I? Quiz 10
Your question makes it obvious that you're probably against the idea and I can see the flaw in that idea. So forget that one. NEXT!

Re: Where Am I? Quiz 10
OK, the number of questions tweak is rubbish. Any thoughts on the kind of questions we should avoid in an informal kind of way?

Re: Where Am I? Quiz 10
Avoid asking the same 'type' of question as the person before.
eg, asking 3 line questions in a row is bad, or using all 20 questions for a quadtree reduction of the area of the map...

I just had an idea - we should play this on the whole UK rail network.

The rules should be as simple as possible to ensure an entertaining game.

Re: Where Am I? Quiz 10
They're not particularly complex now. They are only worded so as to avoid ambiguity and needless getting lost. See the latest game for how it can all go tits up if someone says "outside zone 3" or "LU roundels".
What is an "LU roundel?" Is it a roundel shaped like an LU one (an LU-style one if you like) but with differing colours? Is it a roundel that you would only find at an LU station coloured blue and red? The answer given will determine which direction we all go off in.
