Where am I? - On the Move #2

Post by The Orange One »

I am at a station on the Tube Map. Your job is to find me with a series of yes/no questions, but be warned! I will move around the system at a rate of one stop per two questions. This means that after every even numbered question, I will make a journey of exactly one stop.

To help you understand this, I shall specify after every question whether I am moving or not.

There are restrictions to how I can move; these are as follows:

1) I can only move on the eleven London Underground Lines.
2) I can change line only where two lines intersect in the same station, with this defined by Guinness rules (so no switching between the two Paddingtons and no Bank/Monument switching).
3) I cannot repeat a sequence of stations. This means that if I travel from station A to station B, I cannot travel from station A to station B again.
4) I cannot reverse, except in the special case that I have arrived at a branch line terminus. This means if I have travelled from station A to station B, I cannot immediately head back to station A, unless station B is a branch line terminus.
5) If it becomes impossible for me to move any more, I will say so and remain where I am for the rest of the game.

A branch line terminus is defined as a station with only one adjacent station. For example, Stanmore is a branch line terminus because it has only one adjacent station, Canons Park.

Station Specific Rulings

1) The Heathrow loop (Hatton Cross :arrow: Heathrow Terminal 4 :arrow: Heathrow Terminals 123) is in one direction only. This means that travelling Heathrow Terminals 123 :arrow: Heathrow Terminal 4 or Heathrow Terminal 4 :arrow: Hatton Cross is not possible. Heathrow Terminal 4 is not a branch line terminus though, because although you cannot travel to Hatton Cross, Hatton Cross is still adjacent to Heathrow Terminal 4.

2) Tottenham Court Road is currently closed to the Central Line.

3) Tufnell Park is currently closed, so for the purposes of this game it does not exist.

You have as long as it takes to find me. There is a maximum of two questions in a row. Begin!

Will your next move require you to stay on the Circle Line?

[Edited to correct typo - I wrote "require to you stay", but I think it's obvious what I meant.]
