Baltimorese

The language of Balmer Murland!*

Visiting said relative's parents' house in `92, I found a book entitled (iirc) Baltimorese.
There was an entry for each letter of the alphabet; the only one I remember now is

K is for Kroddy,
a far eastern art.
A kick to the jaw
is a good way to start.

*Don't know if "Merlin" is a more common spelling, but the book used Murland.

We have 20 travelers in the 100,000 miles club now*. Welcome @formulanone

*preview+active systems

[formulanone]

Thanks for the welcome to the 100K club!

Though Ib3kii is on an absolute tear and will overtake me soon enough...

Ha! I wish. I did a lot of damage to my car in 2021. I went from the east coast to the west coast twice and probably doubled my total miles in one year alone. After my last trip, my car hit 200,000 miles (had only about 120,000 a year prior) and then it started making noise...

Long story short, it will be a few months before I will be traveling again. Rest assured I'll be going back to large trips every other weekend when that time comes.

Inspired by this. What's (currently) the lowest number missing on TM? Lowest overall number, lowest in EUR, lowest in NA?

That means, what's the (current) "end of the game"?

[yakra]

Lowest overall number, lowest in EUR, lowest in NA?

Just going for the lowest overall number here; not going to attempt to break it down by continent.

Including only systems in the HB (whether devel systems are included or not), it's 1386.
Adding in systems commented out of systems.csv fills in 56 missing numbers, bringing us up to 1928.

Showing my work. From the HighwayData/hwy_data/_systems directory:

Code: [Select]

# Keep track of commented-out systems; these will be highlighted in red in the results
BigOlRegex=$(tail -n +2 ../../systems.csv | grep '^#' | grep -v 'Systems' | cut -f1 -d';' | tr '#\n' '^;' | sed -e 's~;~;\.\*|~g' -e 's~|$~~')

# Make a list of CSVs for all system codes in systems.csv
# Put commented-out systems at the end to ensure we only get results from these systems if there's no other option
l_csvs=$(tail -n +2 ../../systems.csv | grep -v '^#' | cut -f1 -d';' | sed 's~.*~&.csv~'; \
         tail -n +2 ../../systems.csv | grep '^#' | grep -v 'Systems' | cut -f1 -d';' | sed -r 's~#(.*)~\1.csv~')

# List only those .csv files that actually exist
e_csvs=''
for csv in $l_csvs; do
  if [ -e $csv ]; then e_csvs="$e_csvs $csv"; fi
done

# Iterate thru numbers & search, stopping when there's no result
res=SomethingWithOneOrMoreCharacters
e=`echo -en '\e'`
n=1
while [ `echo -n "$res" | wc -c` != 0 ]; do
  res=$(cat $e_csvs | grep -m 1 ".*;.*;[A-Za-z]*$n[A-Za-z]*;.*;.*;.*;.*;.*")
  echo "$res" | sed -r "s~$BigOlRegex~$e[31m&$e[0m~"
  n=`expr $n + 1`
done
Edit: Last sed expression in BigOlRegex

a.k.a the lowest route number that doesn't exist in Kentucky or elsewhere...

[yakra]

Indeed, lots of Kentucky in the results of that script, despite usaky being pretty late in the alphabet.
The vast majority is in KY from about route 1540 up.

[si404]

1540 sounds like a B road. The zonal system kills a continuous number stream of 3500 routes.

[formulanone]

Our 1-2-3 Road Sign game at AARoads nearly came to a halt until I found De Kalb County had a few 1900 routes near Rainsville, Alabama:

for region_count in $(echo "$region_counts" | cut -f1 -d';' | sort | uniq); do
  system_count=$(echo "$region_counts" | grep -c "^$region_count;")
