Wanna play a game?

[Florence]

As I was driving across town this evening I made up a little traffic light related game.
When you go through a light on green you get a point.
On red, you take away a point.
Score for the journey tonight was -1.
You include pedestrian crossings.
Maximum scores?

Do you also include cocky chavs who think by swaggering accross the road right in front of you it turns it into their right of way, or so the points only kick in if you make them run like girls once they realise you ain't slowing down for shit?

ain't slowing down for shit?

Are you a self parody or a polemical allusive imitation

Self parody?

Polemical allusive imitation?

Is that the same thing or an something identical?

Worth a skill point right there young man, Chav bonnet ornaments are hard to come by. They always seems to just make it out of the way in time unfortunately.

Can i count amber as a score - draw ? ....

 

[Trumpet]

I'll try that tonight. Skill for putting a bit of fun into my drive.

I suppose flashing amber would score double?

 

[Florence]

Being one who likes to press the accellerater at the sight of an amber light I would say it counts as a point.
Just off to Sainsburys.
I'll report back on my score.
Do I feel lucky?

I'm assuming you mean when you get to the light it's on red and you have to wait... not going through a red light?

This does indeed sound fun. I'm betting I get about -10 tonight going home!

 

[gilesjuk]

So you're all admitting being rubbish unsafe drivers?

 

[Florence]

Well, it was an expected 0 on the way to Sainsburys, but a magnificent 2 on the way home.
I did get stuck at the same light twice so took 2 points off for that.
Also concentrating on numbers and nearly crashed...

 

[United57]

Had to go in to town 3 times today. 3 , 2 and 0. A lot better than I thought. This could catch on.

 

[Glam]

Driven to and from Rugeley this evening,taking into account the amount of amber lights I drove thru,the hand signals I used and the language on top. I'm on -100!

Glad you clarified that point I was going to ask.
Managed a 3 last night from J13 to Sainsbugs via Friars Terrace, had a point for a cheeky amber at Newport Road Station Road junction though.
Followed up with a 2 from Sainsbugs to Hyde Lea.

 

[Withnail]

+8 on the way back from work.

I suspect it would've been lower had i not been cycling, as i made at least two lights i wouldn't have in a car.

Cannot report on way to work, as i was mentally breaking down the figures into reds/greens and pedestrian crossings/junction lights so forgot to go into Tesco and get a sandwich for lunch and had to turn back.

Darn you and your addictive game Florence

 

[Gramaisc]

Not fair! I've only been through two sets of traffic lights in the past ten days.....

Got four points, though.

 

[Florence]

Holy crap I had a good run back from Little Haywood!
5 points.

 

[Withnail]

I went to work in my car for the first time in about three years on Friday. My score on the return leg was a bone-crushingly depressing -7!

Back on the bike tomorrow.
