Why is this down for 1994 on here but 2003 on ukc, wouldn't this make it the first 8B+ by 2 years?
It seems it was certainly come before 2003, with forum discussion in 2001, an Wikipedia giving it 1994.
Do we have a reference for this and should it get a trav grade?
I was reading about it in OTE in the mid 90s. Malc did a good write up. I would assume 9a.
‘The version without these rules is Lothlorian’ sounds incorrect. I think Lothlorian also might have the same rules but is a shorter line.
The UKC write up on this seems to be riddled with inaccuracies it seems
Lothlorian finished up the Yorkshireman it seems. I will give it a Trav grade of 9a for now
If you could dig out the OTE article that would be great btw.
1994 is based on some emails I swapped with Malc, had it in at 2003 so he was correcting. Great effort for the time.
Absolutely. I’ll add it as a reference, maybe change it on UKC as well Remus? (avoids confusion if there’s ever a Rockfax Northumberland guide)
