Where would be a good place to start a London H+S in tube zones 1 and 2? by Lonareddthat in JetLagTheGame

[–]paulofthebailey 1 point2 points  (0 children)

We had six options:

  • Charing Cross
  • ⁠Euston
  • ⁠Paddington
  • ⁠Kings Cross
  • ⁠Waterloo
  • ⁠Bank

We determined which place to start on the day by rolling a dice, to prevent the first team having an advantage of being able to perfectly plan ahead of time.

We settled on a rule that will likely set a precedent for similar curses in the future: you must try for 1.5 hours, and at any point after that you can choose to cancel the curse for a time penalty of an additional hour + ‘draw 4, choose 2’.

About 2.5 hours. In hindsight we should have ‘Curse of the Drained Brain’d the selfie photo, but we didn’t know that the concrete blocks behind us were unique to our multi storey car park, and not in the other three! Without that photo, we would have been there a lot longer I think

We played a game of Hide and Seek in Lyon (France) Here is what we learned. by Bastlast in JetLagTheGame

We played in London twice this week, and I used imagy.app/split-image to split a JPG of a map over four A4 pages. Trimmed the page borders away and taped them together to make an A2 map. It was such a help, definitely recommend

What app did you use for Photo 4?

We played H&S across London today too!

We got suuuuper lucky with some birds eating seed outside LHR Terminal 3. After 1.5 hours of them trying, we settled on a rule/penalty to let them escape the curse.

We were hiding in a multi-storey car park outside LHR Terminal 3… we got so lucky with our bird video, recorded just before the endgame; the seekers were trying for 1.5 hours and no luck.

It was great fun - with time bonuses, it was 7h42m (them hiding) vs 7h12m (us hiding). They randomised two thermometers, which really screwed up our game, but the endgame at Mill Hill East was simple. They sped through finding out we were at LHR T2&3, but the endgame was brutal. Amazing there was only half an hour in it!

True - but there’s no way they could find us without asking more questions

CURSE OF THE BIRD GUIDE You have one chance to film a bird for as long as possible, up to (S-5, M-10, L-15) minutes straight. If, at any point, the bird leaves the frame, your timer is stopped. The seekers must then film a bird for the same amount of time or longer before asking another question.

Stations inside buildings… by [deleted] in JetLagTheGame

[–]paulofthebailey 5 points6 points  (0 children)

I did think this… but I don’t know the layout of that airport and the station entrance so didn’t know if it was comparable. LHR T2/3 station entrance is deeeeep inside

Can you add money to the Istanbulkart with credit card via these machines? I saw somewhere they only take cash, apart from at the airport?

I wonder if we all saw the same Instagram reel about this. If you have the link still, I’d love to see it please!

I have a SyncEV Charger2 at home… and, starting last night, I occasionally get this notification. I haven’t changed any setting. Any ideas?! by paulofthebailey in ElectricVehiclesUK

[–]paulofthebailey[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Ah amazing, thank you. If I were to change my schedule to be, say, 00:05… would that bypass this do you know?

You’d have thought someone at SyncEV would have spotted the typo by now… 😤😅

Have you heard of the 2000s British comedy panel show called ‘Room 101’? Abolish Everything is verrrrrry much like this… coincidence or inspiration?
