Shortcut Cam Jul 2018 4:06pm, 28 Jul 2018 968 posts	0 Shortcut Cam Well I’ve achieved my highest ever points total, 8088 points. Achieved through clearing the bug almost daily and the same dozen flowers. Not getting much running in due to injury but plenty of local biking playing Who Squares Wins has helped. It’s all big daily losses from now on and Unless I own a cash-cow traffic light this total will probably never be beaten.
Flatlander Jul 2018 4:13pm, 28 Jul 2018 1,200 posts	0 Flatlander SC, you're right about the cash-cow traffic lights. I'd wondered why my points score had risen a lot so I checked my points breakdown on the leaderboard and 1/3rd of my points are from traffic lights. However, as most of my high scoring cash-cow TLs are expiring and no new TLs are appearing, my points total is set to fall.

Flatlander Jul 2018 4:04pm, 29 Jul 2018 1,203 posts	0 Flatlander LN, no I doubt it. 1,920 is the equivalent of 24 visits to an 80pts TL, and that TL is on a major road in a city and hasn't been on the route of a race. SC, yes a good bit of fortune. I do wonder if there has been a Fetchpoint glitch - a week ago I got 8 points instead of 4 for one of my bugs that I squished.
