Don't make me post the SEPTA system map and prove you wrong on that. 2 different stations on 2 different lines, hence 2 different answers here.
I guess you mean Elm St. on the Regional Rail. The Norristown trolley stop is at NTC. I see what you mean, but meh
And the Cup Results: Match 1: buzzkiller23 98 - FCMatt90 0 Match 2: Laudy 107 - HODJA 100 Match 3: biniman90 84 - JamesonSOB 92 Match 4: ventur514 95 - bkpsu 0 Advancing to the Semi-finals are: buzzkiller23 Laudy JamesonSOB ventur514 Draw will be held later tonight
Actually, there is no Norristown stop on the old R6... There is NTC, Main St. and Elm St. It's kinda like saying 30th st and 30th st station are different places. Potato, potato... I really don't give a crap. If I had listened to myself and said Battleship instead of Submarine, I would have won my first week.
Elm St is listed on the Septa website as Norristown. Norristown (Elm St) and Norristown Transportation Center are different places, there is even a stop in between them. Hence different answers were credited.
I'll take your word for it. Charley will slap you around again if you're wrong. I ride that line frequently, and I drive past the Elm St. Station for the yacht club, and the big station sign says Elm St. and not Norristown... Like it really fcuking matters, anyway...
I'd like to thank the Ewecademy, my director, my wonderful husband, my co-stars, all the little people...I couldn't have done it without any of you! And I originally disagreed with the Herder (irrelevant of course, since his rulings are final), but...
For all of you noobs, Chinny Chinny Bang Bang here has just given you all a master class in the art of BlackSheep. Learn the lesson well, as I have a feeling that a round of BlackSheep could be headed to a board near you in the future.
You are correct. I was basing my info on the R6 timetable, as opposed to the great new system that abolishes the confusing system of numbers and color codes and replaces them with a much easier system of making every train color grey and doing away from the numbers in favor of needing to know what trains go where when they don't go to the final terminus.
The draw for the semi-finals of the Sheep Cup has been completed, the match-ups are as follows: Semi-final 1 buzzkiller23 v. ventur514 Semi-final 2 JamesonSOB v. Laudy Good luck to all One other note, I am considering ways to make this easier on myself, and I would like some feedback from those playing. Do you prefer sending me PMs with your answers, or would you prefer it if I included a link to a webform in which to submit your answers? I am considering trying the webform next week, if there are enough people who would be willing to test it. Please let me know what you think.
In regards to question 12, I realize that question was a poor choice, especially since some folks have firsthand knowledge of the Septa system while others who live beyond the reach of Septa may have been at a disadvantage. In the future I will try to refrain from questions that may contain advantages based on the players locations. However, I would suggest that everyone begins study mass transit maps of other major metropolitan areas, since you never know when such a question may arise.
Wow, good matches next week. Are you going to keep the deadline Friday? We have a road trip to go on you know. I'd be willing to try the webform. I guess I don't know the changes that were made, I just looked on map and picked the one that made sense.
Good point. Since some will be traveling Friday, how about we move this up a day, questions out on Tuesday, answers by Thursday. I will say that I have a meeting on Thursday, so results won't be posted until 4 PM at the earliest, but that should just give the late crew alittle extra time.
I thought I was done for sure. I even included a note in my PM to divot thanking him for the questions this week. I was shocked to not only see that I won but posted the highest score As far as the matchup this week, at least Reading/Berks/Lanco will be represented in the final. Good luck Jameson.
