It seems now guinness WORLD RECORDS REQUIRE EVERY STATION TO BE PHOTOGRAPHED video evidence is not sufficient a photograph as well as well as logbook witness statements i bet you they even throw that OYSTER card back in requirement. To be honest for all challengers be very careful in future i have now quit Random 15 championship and any future tube attempts to this appalling moving of the goalposts evidence required!

It's the new rules - doubles only count if you take a picture of the dart and get the landlord to sign a witness statement.

Perhaps but for example it was extremely exhausting coming up to london and back and to be honest not worth my time

I'm sorry to hear you're pulling out of R15 - whilst I think we both did the same R15 challenge earlier this year (the two-envelope twist) I don't think we really had chance to meet - would have been nice to have caught up after all the support you've given me in planning my own FNC attempts!
As regards the photos - do all the photos have to be "selfies" or do they just have to include the station sign? On my various practice runs so far I've attempted to photograph all the stations but invariably missed a few (especially where tight connections were concerned) and attempts at "selfies" rarely worked out - often I was in shot, or the board was, but not both!

To be honest they are really about timing clocks in background I'm sure now case for certain grounds of being a record that isn't well to be quite honest being officiated by people in know of transport world. I even got response of oyster requirement again like that proves I leave a station without a photograph if this appeal is not granted then I officially retire as its stupid
