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!

Mine is where I hid last month. The only explanations are that you have moved your homepoint for this game, or else you have unwittingly selected this new point when browsing. My money is on the former.

Mine is in the same square I hid in for this game despite having moved my home point since being found.

Yes, but the square I chose for next month is yellow on the "hide" grid.

Philip, if you see a yellow square on the Seek map, then that is where you are hiding for the next game unless you change it.

Sorry, I'm wrong/muddled...

I don't have a yellow square on the hide grid as I have not yet set one for this month.
My yellow square on the Seek grid is where I hid last month and will remain so until the next 'seek' starts. The square remains the same, but the real location could change if I changed my home point.

Should my choice of hiding squares come up automatically- they did last month, but can't see any yet for this month

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.
