Rulings:

* A distance sign or sign element, such as "Alexandria 7", has the relevant sign element as the city name and number, not just the number.

* Conversions such as 1 mile and 1.6 km match number. However, 1 km and 1 mi do not.

OK, I've never been clear on these rulings.

Was my play valid?

The first half of the second rule you quoted was from a feature request, but it didn't make sense for e.g. 5 mi → 8 km → 8 mi, which is supposed to be keeping the same number, which is why I added the second half. In addition, I was thinking of advance BGSes when making that rule more than I was distance signs. However, I'm changing it now to allow both the same physical number and the conversion, as numbers should always match numbers.

Both your plays are fine.

Pyongyang 20 km → Alanland 42 km is still not allowed, though.

But what about Interstate 94 → Alanland 94 or something like that?

It displays fine on my PC (and the image link is to the server copy, not my local file). Is anyone else having that problem?
