fetcheveryone not sure I can message attachments & not wanting to post my map here, the change homepoint grid overlay doesn't correspond to the 'seek' view, rendering it difficult to use.

Is anyone else affected similarly?

That’s interesting rhb.
I’m having the same issue, but the last few times I’ve tried to change my home point I’ve not seen a grid at all so this is an improvement! (On my iPhone, not looked on laptop).

Just felt compelled to have a look (on a laptop).

So far as I can see, my homepoint is the same in all cases (Hide, Seek and 'set your homepoint' grid are all centred around the same point) but the squares on the 'set you homepoint' grid are much smaller - which is a bit weird.

Glad not just me. Anyone on the right border has a reprieve today then, those a few squares in from it at risk as uploading now...

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.
