Another Wednesday, another episode of #JetLagTheGame Taiwan Train Station Race. 😍😍
THE Michelle Khare talking about #Survivor50 on #RHAP! youtu.be/JeMwQrYyP8o?... @robhasapodcast.bsky.social #survivor #challengeaccepted #jetlagthegame #
Have now uploaded the model for the #JetlagTheGame cards that I designed and printed for this weekends game. You can print it yourself via

As is usual in these games, we’ve had a long extended discussion about how to adjust the house rules, and the effectiveness of some of the cards and how to adjust them to the Dutch game. As well as some interesting edge cases that we want to iron out for future games, as we develop our own […]
I don't know which impresses me more. That @moof hid *in* the station... or that we walked past *five* times... Or that we were made to walk almost 2km to make the find...
#JetlagTheGame
The first time we played #JetlagTheGame we noticed managing the cards was a faff, it's way more than a standard deck, and the cards are not ideal pocket size. Fortunately I have access to a 3d printer, and some basic OpenSCAD skills.
The result, Jetlag The Game […]

We have entered the end game. And deployed a tentacle...
#JetlagTheGame
At noon we asked for a photo of the tallest building visible from the station. The hider has 20 minutes to respond.
At 1219, they responded with a photo of the double or nothing card. Fortunately photo questions are the cheapest, so doubling it isn't a major problem. Unfortunately it means we […]
And with two more questions (a thermo between Nijmegen & Arnhem, and are you on the same line as us). We have narrowed down to one line. Which gives 9 possible stations.
We are on our ⅓rd VIRM of the day. We started off with a coast line question from Amsterdam CS, then hopped a VIRM to Utrecht. Asking a 5km thermo along the way. This ruled out most north stuff. At Utrecht an 80k radius got all the far away stuff out of the running. This leaves us with far too […]
It's 1000 at Amsterdam Centraal. Which means the hunt for @moof begins. Today @darkphoenix and are will be trying to find Moof somewhere in the Netherlands, hopefully faster than either of us was found.
First off. I wonder if Moof is nearer the coast than us?

Hello! And welcome to the third and final day of Season 3 of Jet Lag: The Game - Hide + Seek - the Tulip Season. It’s 9am, Wendy the DBJUNGLESKOG and I are at Amsterdam Centraal, and it’s time for us to Go! Go! Go!
Yesterday @darkphoenix hid at Maasluis West […]

We have entered the end game.
#JetlagTheGame
When we first started playing #JetlagTheGame we feared using tentacles, as they are so expensive (draw 4 cards, keep 2). But the 25km zoo tentacle around Rotterdam is so incredibly brutal. In places it leaves just one station as a possible. As it happens. This one question narrowed down to just […]
Whole @darkphoenix may be hiding down near the Maas. We are looking first...in the snack zone!!!!!
#JetlagTheGame
Let’s go play #jetlagthegame
A view looking down into a green valley. In the middle distance there is a small town or village. Trees, not yet in full leaf frame the shot in the foreground. Green rolling fields surround the town. In the very far distance on the horizon some communication towers are just visible.
Before I reveal my hiding spot. One for the geoguessers. Heres the view from my hiding spot. Can you find my location to within 50m?
#GeoGuessing #JetlagTheGame
Final time with bonuses. 7:34. I'm pleased with that. I could have made it a lot longer. But rule 1. Wheaton's law applies.
#JetlagTheGame
Found.
#JetlagTheGame
I can see the seekers. They still have a couple of hundred metres to go, and they know where I am, tho can't see me yet. Not long left now.
#JetlagTheGame
And with two questions. They narrow the search area massively. Am I higher than them (that's altitude, not pharmaceutically), and is my nearest zoo the same as there's. (It is)
#JetlagTheGame
They ask if I am closer to the airport or not. This conveniently slices the map in two. I'm closer. To say thank you I have cast curse of the impenetrable fog.
#JetlagTheGame
We are in the end game. Normally the hiding zone for large games is 1km. But I managed to play curse of the prosperous home, which expanded the hiding zone by 50%. Which dramatically increases the area to hide in.
#JetlagTheGame
Whelp. They have narrowed down the map rather considerably. I have found somewhere to hide. They have found a bench to wait for a train on.
#JetlagTheGame
Well they've managed to narrow down my position to somewhere in Zuid Limburg. Which means I can finally toot about how hard the Zuid Limburg accent and dialect is to understand...

RE: https://cupoftea.social/@moof/116379778814509007
It's worth noting I did also suggest no using OSM edits to find someone. Mainly cos when I'm out and about and find an OSM error, I like to fix it, and don't want to see that I've just added a water tap to the map, as how I give my location […]
While ash is doing that, I thought I'd at least link to the other players' fedi threads. Hopefully we'll be back playing soon.
You can find @darkphoenix's thread here: not.an.evilcyberhacker.net/notes/akw6m3miov9j01x5
For reasons @quixoticgeek doesn't do a single thread, but she tags […]
Game time paused for 30 minutes due to technical difficulties.
And the first question. Am I nearer or further from the coast than them. That's a simple answer. I'm further. I have drawn three cards from the deck. I have kept one. Now to await their next question.
#JetlagTheGame
It's 1000, my hiding time begins. At Utrecht Centraal @moof and @darkphoenix are beginning my search for me. All they know is I'm within 1km of a station somewhere in the Netherlands. I wonder what the first question will be...
I will be tooting with the hashtag #JetlagTheGame. (I'm bad at […]
