Hi ,
It looks like you're using an ad blocker.



The revenue generated from the adverts on the site is a critical part of our funding - and it's because of these ads that I can offer the site for free. But using the site for free AND blocking the ads doesn't feel like a great thing to do, which is why this box is so large and inconvenient. Some sites will completely block your access, but I'm not doing that - I'm appealing to your good nature instead. Did you know that you can allow ads for specific sites, whilst still blocking them on others?

Thanks,
Ian Williams aka Fetch
or for an ad-free Fetcheveryone experience!

I'm loving the idea of lawns! ChrisHB proposed feature 867, which suggests calculating the number of contiguous zones, and then Sigh brought it to life with the nickname!

I've been writing some code that will calculate your lawn size.

I'm defining a 'lawn' as being comprised of contiguous squares (including diagonals) that emanate from your home zone, and that you've explored during the last 365 days.

Here are some lawn sizes for the folks that have posted since Sigh named them lawns:

Me = 92 zones
ChrisHB = 82
Sigh = 56
LindsD = 54
ITG = 154
FDNB = 164
K5 Gus = 465 (!!!)
Slownold = 1
Autumnleaves = 79
57.5 Degrees of Pain = 197

I've manually counted all my explored squares, and it adds up - so if you can spare five mins to check your total, that'd be great. If you're not on the list, but want to know your lawn size, shout out :-)

I'm due to lose lots of those soon, did a few big bike rides late September, and into October last year, but nice while it lasts :-)

:-)

So lawn size is all shades, and not just the green bit? ;-)

56 is spot on, but I need to get Green Thumb in for 16 of them :-)

My lawn size is 0! That can’t be right - I’ve just been for a run.

Bish - have you set a home zone? If not, view the zone you want, and look for the ‘make home’ link.

Aha, I didn’t realise that was a thing. My lawn is now a much more reasonable 72. Thanks both.

That lawn thing is nice - I re-joined VeloViewer recently for a similar experience (it also has a 'tiles' game which is like Conquercise).

My Lawn and Annual totals are nearly the same, which shows how little I've ventured beyond my local territory this year - all joined up.
