Someone from the UK can probably provide a more detailed explanation (BeefontheBone, where are you?), but it's quite an interesting game involving London tube stations. The rules are admittedly complex, so the best way for a novice to learn how the game is played is to watch a game in progress. It's surprisingly intuitive, despite the large number of ruleset variations. Hopefully someone who knows the basic rules (I'm no expert myself) will want to play, and the rest of you should pick it up in no time.

I'm doing a search on the MC, here's something amusing I found (no, I'm not BSin gyou):
The Basic Rules:
1. Each player takes it in turn to name a street in London.
2. The winner is the first person to say Mornington Crescent.


sure reminds me of a game we used to play at 3 in the morning called color or country
(evryone names a color or country in turn, whoever names a country loses)

Close, except that you're actually naming London Underground stations rather than streets.

as far as I understood so far there is about as many rule sets as there are people who know how to play

King's Cross right out of the gate, and you claim you don't know how to play! Very well, then: Marble Arch.
