My club run tonight will go through nearly 20 unsearched squares, in some ways I hope I'm caught this afternoon.

I counted a few rows of visited squares and realised there was a much quicker way: I counted the unvisited squares. :-)

On the "seek" web page, right-click, view source, ctrl-f, and search for showCheckedSquare. 1,028 currently searched squares ;)

Thanks Sam - 1045 now - perhaps a count on the page would be easier though :)

Chrisity, I had hoped I’d be found before club run last night, but I was found this morning, when I’m not running again until tomorrow evening. (I’m in the office today, and did log my walk in case anyone was in the few unsearched squares that covered, but no joy).

Might have to try to adapt my planned route with my mum tonight if there is any accessible squares left! Great work seekers.

Surrounded but not founded. And I couldn't be in a more obvious place.

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.
