GM Notes

Part of MLX’s build was missed off last turn, he built G18 - F17 - E18.

BESTRAIL and SEAWEED got to C68 at the same time last turn, so I have rescinded the payments between them.

When BESTRAIL built from Leominster to I16, it only cost him one rather than two, as he didn’t make a junction. This was reported last turn, but SEAWEED’s points were not adjusted. This was the second correction. BESTRAIL was re-credited rather than BILL.

Next turn’s races:
15-21
16-43
26-44
66-54
62-S5
52-36
35-S4

After this round of races, players may build up to 12 Build points. All KNOWN construction costs (inc junctions, building alongside others) come from this total.
