Sorry, Dakota is a Drive, not an Avenue.

Just a reminder: there is no prize.

I'm surprised no one went for the other option after my first.
There's another in Duntroon/ADFA - General Bridges Drive.

This post meets all required criteria; please submit a feedback form on the department's website if you have an issue with it.

❌ did you think that would work? Still an invalid answer - you are now disqualified from this game

No.
Rules said one name per submission, and no consecutive submissions by the same person. Accordingly, I wait till at least one subsequent submission before making another. What I hadn't expected and didn't actually know at the time, was that an 'invalid' submission would not be counted as a submission.... .
At times there have been quite long time gaps between submissions too. Amazing how many submissions have already been made - about 58.
Ok, you have made an apparently valid submission, so now I can make another.

I think in fairness it's how many submissions are made until you can make another, not how long between each there is. I would give at least 3 other users a chance before I post another - even if that meant me losing the game.

Apart from a few questionable answers, I've crossed off all so far to a list I made of one-stop-roads and I will say there's no need to panic, there's still plenty left to choose from. If by having a list counts for me to be disqualified, I'll delete it. My original assumption was way off however, I still see at least 60 or so valid streets.

There are a few I would question; does Callam Street, Phillip count?

⚠️ is that your submission? - yes, that's my submission

✅ It could be argued either way, would need to check the official ACT Map to be certain, but I would regard platforms 5 6 & 7 to NOT be on Callam St, so yes it's valid.

I don't see your point. A play (submission) can be made by any competitor when they like except if they made the most recent play. In which case they have to wait for someone else to make a play.
A play does not remove an opportunity for anyone else to compete, (at least while lots more options exist, and when they don't - well that's the essence of the game).
Have a great New Year.

Ginninderra Drive (stop #3434 in Dunlop).

Probably the longest road with a single stop.

A suggestion.
As there are fewer streets avaliable, should we change the rule for next submission to "48hrs after the previous submission or after three submissions".

There's still over 50 to go, I don't think we need that yet.

Yes these will always be my submissions (You can make it invalid if you feel it's not allowed). Another questionable one I have is a school stop that is serviced by a network run. Barnard Circuit - St Francis Xavier College.

invalid answer refer to post #9. Does not apply to school only stops and school diversion stops. No penalty (this time).

That stop is not "active" under this timetable and it is actually a SSO stop.

For example, there is one R4 depart from Alfred Deakin High School every school afternoon. You won't be allowed to ride it from the school stop although it is NOT a school student only service. You may join from Woden Interchange.

Therefore I am assuming other schools also prevent other people joinging a network run from their school stops.

I have joined a variety of publicly scheduled (as opposed to school student only) from school stops (including those with grounds) with absolutely no issues. Specifically R4 and R5 from Alfred Deakin where the boarding supervisor went out of their way to ensure the students made space. (My view is it is in the published public timetable and therefore is available to the public to use.) I would comment that the public services from Alfred Deakin, unlike most public services from other schools, are very full and boarding denial could well be related to the bus being full.

No school stops, gotchya. That clarifies 'Woodcock Drive, Gordon' for me.

Go to bottom of your current entries and should see blue 2 or similar highlight. Now highlight the adjacent '1' and go to top to find entry you are looking for. On some computers procedure is similar but start by going to top. Hope that helps.
So we are accepting non-TC serviced stops?

The rules stated "active bus stops", excluding school stops. No restriction on operators. So, yes.
