Home square or hiding square Evan?

If you hide on the edge of you grid the new edge could be too far away to be reachable in a single run.

Evan
My thinking was that where you hide in October becomes the center of your grid for November, so you automatically get a new grid every month. I don't think you would be likely to run yourself off your grid because the center of your grid should be reachable from wherever you typically run. There would need to be a solution for people who moved, engaged in extensive travel, or otherwise spent entire months away from where they typically exercise.

What's funny (well, I think so!) , is that my square based on my gridis actually in EdJ's back garden - this is the fun of us all having our own square and not seeing where anyone else is running

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.
