Probably answered before, but 221 pages to wade through... What if the seeker logs no training all month?

I guess you all stay hidden :-)

I think if it became clear after a few days that the initial seeker was out of action, I'd ask for a volunteer to kick things off.

Looking at Maccathecracker's log though, he did 337 miles in September, so we're probably ok this month :-)

Fetch, where can we see who the current seeker(s) is/are? (Other than looking at your post on this page :) )

There's no real place to see the initial seeker - but as the people get found, the game feed will indicate who is joining the ranks.

Actually, I just realised I'm hiding in the canal. Hope I get found quickly, I'm surrounded by shopping trolleys!

For the 1st time in 6 months work has drawn me out of my grid, today of all days. A late lunch run is looking unlikely so it might be a post work run.......something will be registered today👀

Don't go out of your way Macca, we don't want you getting injured. Take a rest after work!

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.
