Presumably, if you hide in a square, then move, but move back to the first square, you go to the back of the queue in terms of who hid there first? (thinking for the purposes of the tie-break situation... it would be tedious if it were possible to bag first place on multiple squares by hiding in them all, one after the other, straight after uploading)

That's some very precise running :-)

ishep - don't worry about that, you can't 'bag' first visit :-)

It we be interesting to have count of how many squares you have to choose to hide in. Total is 1,600 and I reckon I’ve been in about 20% of them

NDW - surely that's because you kept taking the same route through my WSW backyard last week instead of running in different places!

It was a very effective approach last week. I’m struggling in the multiplayer this week but happy with final 8

Don't rule yourself out of contention yet - fourth looks as if it's still up for grabs.

I reckon I can get to a little under 20% of my squares; the majority being in the middle of East Anglian prairie fields of rapeseed, wheat, barley etc. Doesn't really matter for hiding purposes (I can only hide in 1 square) but it makes seeking hard.

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.
