I have checked but it'd be useful if you (or anyone else) could double-check - mistakes are bound to slip through.RobbieM wrote:Looking good! I haven't checked that all 270 have been included (or that they only appear once!), but I think it will indeed work well.
Thanks - I missed that. I tried to make sure that occurrences of all single words that are also station names were removed - "Paddington", "angel", "Oval", "archway", "bank", "Vauxhall" are ones I remember, but again there may be some that I missed.We'll probably need to rewrite an early sentence about the Gunners - as this mentions 'Arsenal' as a word, which may confuse its hidden version. Perhaps "They focused on the relative qualities of North London football teams, and how the GUNNERS BURY their opponents with such style" would do this?
Yes - there are one or two sections that look as though they ought to have station names hidden inside them, but don't, such as the paragraph about how many points each country received in the Eurovision Song Contest. I thought about taking that out but on reflection I like the idea of keeping it in as a bluff!Then we'll need to make sure the rules are explained clearly. For example, people looking for 'Upminster' must know that it has to be found separate from 'Upminster Bridge'. I could also remove (or change) the references to Harrogate and Uruguay; I was preparing myself for possible ways of getting 'Temple' and 'Tubeguru' into the mix; I didn't need to use them in the end. (Then again, perhaps they're bizzare enough to stay...!)
Thanks.Great work, GuyBarry!
