You may have noticed that yesterday I was hiding in Quedlinburg, but we’re starting the morning in Halle(Saale). The official rules state that we should start from where the last hider was found. Last time we played in Germany, we worked out that starting from there wouldn’t get us around the country much. Apart from the initial ICE from Frankfurt to Erfurt, we could have played the entire game on a D-ticket. This year we’ve added a rule saying that after the player is found we should travel to the nearest station where there is a regular ICE service, and start from there. Technically speaking that would be Magdeburg, but the service is there not that regular, so we collectively decided that Halle gave the hider the most options. This did mean we had a scheduled 2.5 hour ride from Quedlinburg yesterday, and we got Deutsche Bahned on the way here, which meant we ended up having supper in Magdeburg and arriving at our hotel pretty late. But now we have a much more interesting game
