daily quiz - your photos wanted

[Chris M]

I have updated the desire lists for quiz locations and uploaded them in Open Office Calc, MS Excel (untested), pdf and html formats. They all are all listed in both alphabetical order and desire category order (the latter starts on page 23 of the PDF). I have uploaded them to www.sucs.org/~cmckenna/photos/quizes/tqmisc/ and the file names are self explanatory..

Following a request from caravelle there is also for the first time a map showing which locations are most wanted in the same location. Please do let me know if you find this map useful as it took a few hours to produce (the tables took only a few minutes) and so I'll not do it again if nobody uses it.

Also most welcome are ideas for connecting locations to dates, link questions (plain links, odd one out and/or 5th in the set) and any way to keep these requests more up to date. Any way of populating the map with data from the spreadsheet I use to manage the quiz would be useful/interesting as well.

Great! Now I can a quick ref without having to write my own tube map. Which reminds me I'm still in debt with you...

(This is my 33rd post and it's Easter....)

[Chris M]

I've uploaded the latest desire spreadsheet, map and pdf to www.sucs.org/~cmckenna/photos/quizes/tqmisc/ the files are named July rather than June as the quiz is already uploaded for the rest of this month.

[Chris M]

I will update the desire maps, etc shortly (the current ones are not too out of date) but at the moment I'm running low on photos for backgrounds/insets - anywhere you think people will be able to identify that is ''not'' one of the following places would be good:
* Epping-Ongar Railway
* Mid Hants Railwaly (Watercress Line)
* RAF Musuem Hendon
* Battle of Britain museum, London
* Kingsway tram subway

As with the main location photos (always welcome), a few pictures of several locations is more useful than lots of one place. Sending the files to me by email (cmckenna at sucs dot org) is the easiest way to get them to me.

[Chris M]

Yes I do still want photos for the quiz!

The list below is of locations that I'm least in need of, but anywhere else will be good. I know it looks long, but it's only about 1/7th of the total number of locations in the database, and the only between and junction locations that are there are ones I've had photos of at some point. The list in the previous post is still up to date regarding backgrounds and insets.

For one minute there Chris I considered moving your post to RIPAS until I realised it wasn't actually a new tube line proposal. I've woken up now BTW.......  

[theblackferret]

Seeing that list in the RIPAS context, I can only add The Lakeland's 32-piece finest is twitching on the study shelf as I type this.

[Chris M]

I think even the most dedicated crayonista would find issue with a route from Embankment to Farringdon with a single intermediate stop at Epping!

[norbitonflyer]

The challenge now is to visit them all - in that order.

I dunno, haven't you heard of Epping Triangle-if Winnersh can have one.......

Have you been to Betfred yet to get the odds on which month anyone taking that on will be completing it?

[caravelle]

At last the needed extension for the Waterloo and City :-)

[suncloud]

Just checking that you're referring to the 'Epping' in New South Wales...

[Chris M]

For later this month, I would like some photos for backgrounds/insets from a specific area. So if you think you have or will be able to get some pictures in west London to me by about the 20th of September please send me a PM and I'll be more specific.

More generally, some more backgrounds and insets would be welcome - perhaps take a photograph next time you visit a non-TfL station or take a trip outside London and send it to me. Even just one photo is good.
