"There is lots of the US in the middle of nowhere. I wouldn't include Poughkeepsie in that description."

Agree: not truly the middle of nowhere but when you're told "it's near New York" and your plane lands in JFK late in the evening and you then have to get to the car rental lot and pick up a car and drive 90 odd miles then it isn't the same as a taxi ride to Manhattan.

Once there, it is a nice part of the world. Catskill Mountains recommended.

Cor, the grid is filling up, had a few close calls already.

I'll be in the garden most of the day, though, so I guess the game will be over before I know it.

Went through a few unsearched squares but didn't find anyone. :-(

I have no idea what a ploughkeepsie is. And I don’t think I care to find out.

Poughkeepsie is a place. Whatever you do, don't get caught picking your feet there! 😉

Well I thought I’d have found at least one of you! 7 squares explored that were within reach unless of course someone else did same squares. Good fun though.

I'm completely surrounded!

A lone yellow square in a sea of grey. Bet that doesn't last much past this post, but top 3rd will do :)

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.
