@AVUNCULAR ENERGY @Gould We need team strategizing fast
Avatar
AVUNCULAR ENERGY 04/06/2025 22:11
hear me out
22:12
there is an area of crystal palace that has 5 borough borders nexts to each other (edited)
22:14
Croydon, Southwark, Lambeth and Bromley
22:15
and Lewisham is around the corner also, it's in the top right in that photo
22:17
We could claim Lambeth and Southwark from 9 and get 2 points for each, the rest get 1 in the morning
22:18
The way I see it though, locking out of activation boroughs could still be a stratery because if we get the lock point, it blocks other teams from capturing, so it's a net +2 (edited)
22:19
(also i live here so i know the area lol) (edited)
22:22
If we do want to do that the fastest way would be > run to Mansion House or Cannon Street > District to Whitechapel > Overground to Crystal Palace (edited)
22:25
I note also that the City of London contains no locking/claim capabilities, so everyone will instantly start running off

Have a feeling that people might drift west at the start because thatโ€™s where the activated boroughs are, focusing on east London could be a play
Avatar
I absolutely think locking things before activation is going to be important
11:47
Especially if it disrupts their ability to do a mad dash later
11:48
Even if we only did 4 of the 5, they wouldnโ€™t want to come down and claim lots in a small area

You must go to a supermarket chain (Boots, Tesco, M&S etc). You must identify the best value-for-money meal deal in that shop (no clubcard), and send a photo of the 3 items making up the deal. The best value-for-money is defined as the maximum absolute saving compared to list price of buying each item separately. You don't have to buy the actual meal, though you can if you want.

Croydon Claiming Challenge One player must walk a quarter mile but only take steps through dice rolls. (You can only take steps depending on your dice roll) You may use a virtual or physical 6-sided die. The whole thing may be recorded but should be sufficient enough. (Please inform helpdesk who can advise you on what to do) You may plan your route beforehand. You also cannot take public transport before this is completed.

Send me a photo of it for now, then I'll process it later while you upload, you can use another third party hosting platform such as file.io if it's too big for discord

Sharing files with file.io is convenient, anonymous and secure. Just upload files and share the links via email, SMS, Slack, Discord, etc. Easy-to-use REST API.
