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!

finally caught up on what I need to do.... so I've clicked on the link, registered and now need to pick a hiding spot. It is only a blue background with a grid on it, is that right? If so I will not be able to find myself so I hope where I am if I do get lost hahaha.

You'll have to zoom out on the map because that sounds like you're in the sea. Zoom out, move the map until it is where you are and then zoom in again.

If you simply have a plain blue background, the game probably thinks your home point is 0,0 Lat/Long - somewhere in the Atlantic off the coast of equatorial Africa - so you'll need to correct that.

Then - you need a GPS trace of a run in April after you registered to generate a series of red squares from which to select a hiding place. Picking one of those will turn it yellow and be locked in tonight.

Any other queries - please direct to Fetch because I've now exhausted my store of accumulated knowledge on this game (I'm hoping it will increase over the coming weeks)

You might have to download some training before you see any red squares to hide in.

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.
