Moof! 🔜 #JetLagTheGame NLFeb 28

Hello! And welcome to day 1 of this 2-day game of #JetLagHideAndSeek, London edition! It’s 10:30am GMT, we’re at London Waterloo Station, and it’s time for @leonerd, Wendy the DBJUNGLESKOG and I to Go! Go! Go!

Today, we are hiding somewhere in London. This should be relatively easy, as all three of us are geeks, and #LondonComicCon is on. I have already spotted starfleet officers from at least two separate centuries walking around, as well as someone with an implausibly long scarf. We are allowed to use anything that is on rails to transport us, as well as river busses, and we have an hour to hide in, which gives us a pretty wide area to play in.

At 11:30 @delph and @nall will start at this station, and try to find us. We’re obviously hoping it’s going to take them a couple of days…

Confused as to what this is all about? Don’t know what Jet Lag Hide and Seek is? I’ve put up a primer at https://moof.space/what-is-jetlag

And they’re off! The Seekers have asked if they are closer to a theme park than us, and the answer is yes.

That’s removed a good chunk of the map already… starting strong!

They’ve now started a thermometer.

They decided to do a 1km walk in the general direction of the Savoy, and ended the thermo there. We are colder. This has quartered the map really well…

They asked us for a picture of the platform. Hopefully it doesn’t give too much away…

We’ve had a few questions since then…

The asked for the tallest building from the station, which in the past has been a very useful question.

We have also been asked for a 10km radius centred around Canary Wharf. Which we are inside…

This map is getting smaller, but there is still some game left.

And we have both declared lunch slightly staggered. They have just become active, and we will resume at 13:40…

And a good way of bisecting the river… are we closer to the high speed line than them? (No)

There is tha little sliver of space up by South Woodford that they haven’t eliminated though. Are we up there?

@moof what do you use to make these nice looking maps of the remaining area?
