not always, Mornington Crescent. >>

hm? i am typically confused: what does "has been added to the newsgroup line"
mean? it appears as though few people post here, other than spammers.

Yes, that is because alt.games.mornington.crescent is not an active
newsgroup. It says use alt.games.mornington.cresent instead.

Ok judging from these posts the game is actualy none existant and this is
simply a n.g set up to give the spammers somewhere to practice.
Any sensible question about the nature of the game appears to be fielded
with nonsense.
OK lets try again WTF is Mornington Crescent???????????????

A game almost completely unlike chess. I'd tell you more, but my copy
of the rules is currently being fumigated by the New Zealand MAF
Biosecurity section. It's the leather bindings, you see. Might be
harbouring wee beasties. Or so they tell me.

Anyone got the latest edition of the International Tournament Rules?

A devilishly tricky parlour game, made famous by the BBC.

Mind the gap!
