Game Log: 20 October 2006 -
| Operating Turn 40 |
Start Town: 43=Aberamam; End Town: 62=Treorchy This should have been a special run so changed from Treorchy to End Town 2=Methyr, Dowlais, Brynmawr, Pontypool or Newport | |
| Operating Turn 39 |
Start Town: 52=Ferndale; End Town: 43=Aberamam | |
| Short route: Dave (4+1mt=5 pays Lee 1) rolls 4&3; Lee(4+1mt=5 pays Dave 2) rolls 4&6: Both arrive on the second roll so Lee gets it as the highest cash goes first. | ||
| Extensions: | None | |
| Operating Turn 38 |
Start Town: 3=Cardiff City; End Town: 52=Ferndale | |
| Only 2: Lee (27 pays Dave 4) roll 3,5,2,2,4,6,5 & Dave (28) roll 5,5,3,5,3,1,5: Lee just pips Dave at the post. | ||
| Extensions: | None | |
| Operating Turn 37 |
Start Town: 63=Ystrad Rhondda; End Town: 3=Cardiff City | |
| Lee (28+1mt pays Dave 3) roll 4,4,2,4,1,5,2,2,3 +2=29; Dave (27) roll 3,3,5,2,2,4,2,5,6=32; Andy (33+5mts pays Chris 1) roll 2,4,2,4,5,2,3,6,1 +2=30: Dave wins in 9 rolls, & Lee 2nd in 10 rolls | ||
| Operating Turn 36 |
Start Town: 56=Senghenydd; End Town: 63=Ystrad Rhondda | |
| Lee (18 pays Kevin 1 Dave 3) roll 6,2,6,2,6; Andy (14+4mts pays Kevin 1 & Lee 4) roll 3,6,2,2,4. Lee arrives first due to the mountains holding Andy back. Dave wanted to race also, so Dave (18+1mt pays 2 to Andy, 4 to LeeB & 1 to Kevin) roll 5,2,6,6, reaches the finish in 4 rolls thus moving Lee back into 2nd and Andy 3rd. | ||
| Extensions: | none | |
| Operating Turn 35 |
Start Town: 1=Any Port(please specify in orders); End Town: 56=Senghenydd | |
| Lee (18 pays Kevin 1) roll 5,6,3,2-1,1,5; Kevin (19) roll 3,2,4,1,1,3 Andy (17 pays Chris 3 & Kevin 3) roll 3,2,4-1,1,6,2. Lee followed by Andy arrive in 6 rolls, before Kevin still near Caerphilly | ||
| Operating Turn 34 |
Start Town: 33=Fochriw; End Town: 1=Any Port(please specify in orders) | |
| Three way race - anyone taking bets on third? LeeB(32) roll 2,2,2,3,2,5,3,4=23,2,2,2,4; Kevin(33) roll 3,4,5,1,4,3,2,2=24,4,2,5,1; ChrisB(44+1 mountain) roll 5,3,2,5,3,3,1,4=26,5,1,3,6: Kevin reaches the port on the 11th roll, LeeB on the 12th roll & ChrisB somewhere in the future. | ||
| Extensions: | None | |
| Operating Turn 33 |
Start Town: 64=Tonypandy ; End Town: 33=Fochriw | |
| Two man race Lee(22 pays Dave 3) roll 1,5,4,5,4; Dave (21 pays Lee 1 & Kevin 3) roll 5,5,5,4,4. With good die rolls Dave wins on the 5th roll. Amendments: up to the end of roll 5: Lee doesn't enter mountains but Dave did 5 times which means Lee is at 19 while Dave is only at 23-5=18, so a 6th roll is necessary Lee 2, Dave 5. Therefore on the 6th roll Lee reaches 21 & Dave 23. The end result is the same but thanks for reminding me. | ||
| Operating Turn 32 |
Start Town: 5=Barry or Penarth; End Town: 64=Tonypandy : back the same way!!! | |
| Same 3 again! Lee(27 pays Kevin 1 & Dave 3) roll 3,6,5,2,3,6,4; Dave(25) roll 5,4,5,1,6,2,2; Kevin(25) roll 5,6,5,4,5: Kevin arrives in 5 rolls making him the winner: both Lee & Dave arrive on roll 7 but Lee has the priority making him 2nd. | ||
| Extensions: | Lee burrows through the mountains from the Rhondda paying 1 to Kevin | |
| Operating Turn 31 |
Start Town: 65=Tonyrefail; End Town: 5=Barry or Penarth | |
| A three way race between Lee, Dave and Kevin: Lee(27 pays Kevin 1) roll 3,3,4,2,1,2,4[=19]; Dave (22) roll 2,5,4,2,1,5,3[=23]; Kevin (25) roll 3,3,5,5,5,2,2[=25]. Both Dave & Kevin arrive on the 7th die roll leaving Lee out in the valley, but Kevin gets it as the first mover, with Dave second | ||
| Operating Turn 30 |

| Extensions: | Andy extends South from Rhymney to Bargoed (paying Kevin 5): Correction: he didn't build on the parallel track so only pays 2 to Kevin | |
| Operating Turn 29 |
Start Town: 2=Methyr Tydfil(35/6), Dowlais(34), Brynmawr(15), Pontypool(11) or Newport(Docks); End Town: 14=Abertillery | |
| Lee tries to run by paying 5 to Chris & 1 to Andy - very generous, but the route must have some of your own track to run. So just down to Chris(6 pays Andy 1) and Andy(22): Andy bows out for 2nd place without rolling the dice. | ||
| Operating Turn 28 |
Start Town: 25=Ystrad Mynach: End Town: 2=Methyr Tydfil(35/6), Dowlais(34), Brynmawr(15), Pontypool(11) or Newport(Docks) | |
| Lee (15 pays Chris 5) rolls 1,6,2,1,5; Kevin(16) rolls 6,5,3,1,6; Andy(22) rolls 6,3,6,6,5: Amazingly all reach their target on the last die roll so Lee is 1st & Kevin 2nd - Andy was robbed. | ||
| Extensions: | None | |
| Operating Turn 27 |
Start Town: 45=Aberfan: End Town: 25=Ystrad Mynach | |

5,1,4,5,1,6,5,5,5,2,5 (=44)+5 Lee gets there 1st in 11 rolls; Dave, Andy & Chris all get there on the 12th roll - therefore the richest of these three gets there - which is Andy (luck of the dice????) |
||

| Lee(38) rolls 6,5,4,2,5,3,1,4,2,4=36; Dave(42) rolls 4,5,1,6,5,4,4,6,4,3=42: Dave gets there first | ||

||

| Andy (23 pays Chris 1) rolls 5,4,5,2,3,5; Kevin (25) rolls 6,2,4,5, 6,5; Although both reach on the same roll since Andy moves first he pips Kevin on the final roll of the dice. | ||

| Lee (28 pays Kevin 1) rolls 4,2,4,4,1,2,4,4,6; Dave (43) rolls 6,6,1,5,4,2,4,2,5......; so Lee gets there first in 9 rolls. Dave arrives a little later. | ||
| Operating Turn 10 |
Start Town: 42=Aberdare : End Town: 5=Barry or Penarth | |
| Lee (35 pays Kevin1) rolls 4,4,3,4,5,5,4,4,6; Dave (43 : I make it 37 from Aberdare not Hirwaun) rolls 4,5,1,3,3,4,2,4,5,6: Lee first in 9 rolls; Dave second in 10 rolls | ||

||
| Extensions: | In order Andy (pays Lee 2), Lee (pays Kevin 1), Kevin (pays Dave 6), Chris, Dave (pays Kevin 1 & Lee 1) - up to 10% of cash on extensions & costs: | |
| Operating Turn 7 |
Start Town:23=Blackwood End Town: 4= Cardiff (city) or Newport: I've mistakenly been rolling for the ports on every turn rather than every alternate turn (as pointed out by Andy), so from next turn it will be 'port' to town to town to 'port' allowing for some cross-country races. | |
| 3 to race again: Lee(31); Andy(17); Chris(27 pays Kevin 2 &
Andy 5). Unless there is a derailment I think Andy should get this one. Lee
rolls 3,1,2,4,5,2,2,2,4,4; Andy roll 5,4,3,2,1,2; Chris rolls
3,4,6,3,3,3,1,2,1,2 Andy arrives first in 6 rolls; Chris arrives second in 10 rolls; & Lee just pipped at the post |
||
| Operating Turn 6 |
Start Town:3= Cardiff (city) or Barry : End Town:23=Blackwood | |
| 3 to race: Lee (32 pays Kevin 4); Andy (22 pays Chris 1);
Kevin (26): Off we go Lee rolls 2,4,4,4,1,1,2,2; Andy rolls 2,3,4,1,5,2,5;
Kevin rolls 1,5,4,5,2,2,6,3 Andy arrives first in 7 rolls, and Kevin second in 8 rolls & Lee still rolls down the hills |
||
| Extensions: | In order Andy, Lee Kevin, Chris, Dave - up to 10% of cash on extensions & costs: | |
| Operating Turn 5 |
Start Town:15=Brynmawr : End Town: 3= Cardiff (city) or Barry (again) | |
| On the reverse route Andy joins in, so 3 to race; Kevin(41
pays Andy 3 & Chris 5); Andy(35 pays Chris 4); &Chris(43). So the odds are
in Andy's favour: Kevin rolls 5,3,3,2,1,6,2,2,5,1,5,3,5; Andy rolls
3,5,2,3,3,6,3,3,5,3; Chris rolls 4,1,4,5,1,6,2,5,5,5,2,3. Andy arrives first in 10 rolls (£20), Chris second in 12 rolls (£10), but Kevin takes 13 rolls |
||
| Operating Turn 4 |
Start Town:3= Cardiff (city) or Barry : End Town:15=Brynmawr | |
| Only two to fight it out this time: Kevin(41 pays Andy 3 & Chris 5) & Chris(43): it's all on the dice: Kevin rolls 3,2,5,1,5,3,2,2,4,2,4,2,6(=41); Chris rolls 2,2,4,6,4,5,6,1,2,2,2,5,2(=43): I reckon I was robbed!!! Kevin gets there first for £20 & Chris gets £10 both in 13 rolls. | ||
| Extensions: | In order Lee, Andy, Kevin, Dave, Chris - up to 10% of cash on
extensions & costs: Lee-East & North of Ystrad Mynach 3 (paying 1 to Kevin); Andy-continues South 4 (paying Chris 1), & links north to Ystrad Mynach 5; Kevin - into Cardiff 1 (pays Chris 2) & into mountains near Fochriw 4; Dave - into mountains near Merthyr 4 & north near Hirwaun 1; Chris - joins Andy north of Cardiff 1 (pays Andy 1) & West of Pontypool 2 |
|
| Operating Turn 3 |
Start Town:55= Pontypridd : End Town: 3= Cardiff (city) or Barry | |
| Again a three man race: Lee(17); Kevin(?18 pays Lee 7); Dave (via 53,44?64,65=30). Not much chance for Dave, but it didn't cost him anything- Lee rolls 2,2,5,4,3,4; Kevin rolls 4,3,4,4,4; Dave rolls 2,5,3,2,4,4,2,etc. Kevin arrives at Cardiff in 5 rolls (£20), Lee in 6 (£10) while Dave still tours around | ||
| Operating Turn 2 |
Start Town:22= Cross Keys: End Town: 55= Pontypridd | |
| Three racing: Andy (pays Lee 6, Dave 4)( distance=53
via S10&R14), Lee
(pays Andy 9) ( distance=22 via W21), & Kevin (pays Andy 9, Lee
6)( distance=20 via W21 & R20) The odds were never in Andy's favour with a 53 route vs 22 or 20 - Lee rolls 3,4,2,5,2,2,1,5=23; Kevin rolls 5,4,2,4,5=20; Andy rolls 4,2,5,3,5,4,4,5=33. So Kevin arrives 1st at Pontypridd in 5 die rolls (£20), and Lee arrives 2nd in 8 die rolls (£10): Andy admires the scenery. |
||
| Extensions: | Andy extends through the mountains SE of Caerphilly (cost 10); Lee follows to S coast to join Chris (cost 2+1 to Chris); Dave joins Andy from the mountains NW of Aberamam, (unable to do more since limited to 10%) (cost 4+1 to Andy); Kevin links to Cardiff & runs parallel to Chris not quite reaching Cardiff Docks due to lack of funds (cost 1+1+2 to Chris) (to the Docks would cost another 1+2); Chris almost reaches Andy north of Cardiff (cost 2) | |
| Operating Turn 1 |
Everyone wants random die rolls for running trains, & the preference seems to be no town more than once except for the Docks/Main towns etc - so all towns will be run to once, and the winner will be the highest cash score when all are completed. | |
| Start Town: 2= Methyr, Dowlais, Brynmawr, Pontypool or Newport: End Town: 22= Cross Keys | ||
| Only Andy decided to operate this route (Newport-Cross Keys distance 10) - so with die rolls: 6,2,4 reaches the destination to score 20 using only his own track: No-one scores the remaining 10. | ||
