Wtf is Mornington Crescent?

[Respectmyauthoritah]

I've just read the whole thread. I have no idea what's going on. I didn't want to post on there as they seem to be in some sort of flow and would probably ignore me anyway.

I have no idea what's going on

I think you mean 'I'm Sorry I Haven't a Clue'.

Google it?!

Yes someone please enlighten me because it seems like fun.

Me neither and there's one called AD's. No idea what that is either

Daydreamsinglorioustechnicolor it's a silly nonsense game.

@jendifer No way! I thought it was a mumsnet thing.

Were they using the Clapham Omnibus rules? They can be quite confusing at first.

If you know, you know

I googled it and still don't get it!

I love to watch, bit I never play. Too exciting for me.

Mornington Crescent - a nonsensical game where players name various London Underground stations and make up obscure sounding rules for absolutely no reason

AD's - anti-dementors - something about going against the most Draconian rules of Covid

Both the above remind me - I just lost the game.

Not Mornington Crescent. The Game.

If you know, you know, and you'll hate me.

So invent some long-winded waffle until it's appropriate to shout Mornington Crescent? That is literally 99% of my social interactions if you replace Mornington Crescent with 'Well, it was nice seeing you...'

Ffs!! You’ve ruined a perfectly lovely Friday evening!!

@TakemedowntoPotatoCity I know the game! And I hate you.

Ask Mrs Trellis, of north Wales. She’s an expert player.

I first played MC online in about 1984.

It's not invented. There's rules, and almanacs and meetings, addendum and conferences to ensure Mornington Crescent is played correctly.

But, yes, you must be the first to reach Mornington Crescent if you would like to win.

Twas a dark and stormy night.

@TakemedowntoPotatoCity ARRRGHHHHH

I love MC. Its complete and utter nonesense pretending to be a real game and with ridiculous fictious characters. Have a go OP with a short journey between tube stations and before you k ow it you will as much an expert as anyone else is!

Come and join us ☺️ have fun, you won't be ignored.

You might break a rule, but nobody will mind.

Sorry! not sorry😂

Bollocks. Bloody game.

@TakemedowntoPotatoCity you bastard!
