Arrrggghhhh!!!

The Beast from Aldgate East has been released. The number being 666 and the date being the 4th means that only a triangulation of the opposites can break us out of this evil state of being.

I shall therefore, take Z's Death Token and smite down the beast with an almighty blow to the head and retire, victorious to:

god, if you're gonna nick my tokens at least have the courtesy to use them properly... don't you remember the world cup final from 1942 when the beast was released?

"well, if anyone invokes a mountainous station or blot left of the line now, we're all in trouble."

therefore, i'm left with no choice.

Here we go again ... I wish I'd left the frigging beast alone now.

And here we are yet again at:

DOLLIS HILL

Will we ever gain enough line velocity to escape, I wonder?

I might be able to rustle up a pink token in about five or six moves' time.

Until then, the only plausible play is to subjunct the automatic doors at Neasden whilst shunting the beast about. If you take all of that into consideration when playing Mason's third rule of interchanges, you end up at:

Ooh...This is a tough one...With eveything else well and truly in knip, I guess I'll have to go:

i can take a few things out of knip and into beast by using arschmolensky's famous paupulerian shuffle by invoking:

DOLLIS HILL

there, wembley is now in beast.

Well beasted.

With all diagonals now in forced spoon and with the beast shuted into the zonal phase I feel confident enough to play a move which should astound you in both its originality and its complexity:

this took me a long while to think over, but the central wheel's magnetic force has now been doubled, and because you rotated around the sevillian pivot, dollis hill is now in knip. tis just damn lucky we got those two together. beware though, because the wheel really is a fleeting thing, so we'll have to go in and out as quick as possible.

what?!?! that's north of the line! you've just inverted the velocity of the central wheel and as a result you're in knip and we all will be soon, because there's only one thing i can do.
