Are you running in the area of the map covered by your grid?

You posted this image from last month’s game



But your last few runs are in Hastings.

No I changed it back to my home area.

I’m going to play trumps instead. I’m quite good at that.

I just had an idle thought... shouldn't this game be called

Hide And Fetch

(or even "Hide and Fetch....EVERYONE!")

No? Ok then, I'll crawl back under my log :)

I had an issue with my walks etc not showing up and it was due to not having gaps switched on on my watch.

I think Beanie has hit on a new strategy for the game! LOL

Mandymoo has hinted at the question I wondered about - how are you logging your training beanie? Only gps generated routes are captured by the game - if you're creating routes manually or simply recording times for previously saved routes then there's nothing for the code to map onto your hider's grid.

OK - that's that possible answer to the issues you're having closed off then. Back to having a chat with Fetch.

About This Thread

Maintained by fetcheveryone
Here's the barebones of the new game:

fetcheveryone.com/hideandseek.php

How it works
The game generates a big three mile square with you at the centre. The square is cut into a grid of 1600 smaller squares.

During any given, unlock as many squares from your grid as possible (C19 permitting) by visiting them during your training. These are the places where you can 'hide'. Before the month is up, you must choose one of these squares as your hiding place.

When the first game kicks off (1st of the month), a lone seeker must start finding people, by visiting the squares. When someone is found, they become a seeker too. The seekers can then collaborate to flush out the hiders, and a growing army of seekers hunt down the final hiders.

The last person to be found will become the seeker for the following month.

IMPORTANT
I am still building the game. Keep following this thread for updates as I make them.
