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!

my circle is centered precisely on our glamorous 2* hotel. (It has a pool though so I'm just grand.)

I was just thinking about this while on my lunch walk. So moving my circle to work each morning for when I can get out at lunch, then moving it back home for my evening run would be frowned upon? ;-)

Thanks.

I think for holiday purposes I shall go with centred on where I'll be sleeping - that seems simplest and I'm not sure which direction I'll be running in. At home I'm not in the centre, but I've got a pretty settled position I can stick with.

bobbob - if you went for the "mostly sea" option, I suspect you would have to spend half your holiday just clicking on bugs in the sea to mark them as inaccessible! It would be quicker and easier to run a mile inland if you had to ...

To bring FP in line with WSW and Conquercise, I've just added a notification that turns up when you've logged a bit of training that earns you some points.

Bob!
What would be the point Stu?

Your jewels don't move with the cicle. IMO you'd be better debugging and jewel collecting in one location and flower planting and watering in the other.

I wasn't serious but the point would be I could have two opportunities for bug squishing. If I was able to get the bug at lunch leaving me free to run where I like in the evening.

I knew I wasn't going to get a run in yesterday as I had to go and pick my car up from the garage, so I moved my home point to the garage, (in Gloucester), which put the bus station (Where I got off the bus from home) on the edge of my new circle. Quick walk in the wrong direction, pick up a diamond from a neighboring circle, then walk to the garage the looooong way round to squish my bug.

Did 2.1 miles in the end. And moved my circle back home last night because I will run here later. Probably. Hopefully.. if I can find my motivation.

That's ok though isn't it?

StuH,
What if for some reason you couldn't get your bug at lunchtime? If you move your circle to home for your evening run, I am not sure if your bug would move with it.
Of course, after moving your circle to home for the evening, you could mark your lunchtime bug as inaccessible, but again I am not sure what would happen. Would it reappear in what was your lunchtime circle, or your evening circle?
I certainly don't think such a tactic would be in the spirit of the game (yes, I do know you weren't being serous ;-) ).

Each time you move your circle, all your own bugs move with it. So, in StuH's (hypothetical) example he'd be taking his bug home with him if he failed to squish it at lunchtime.

Em - that seems entirely reasonable to me. Now get out there and run ;)
