North-west is clearly the place to be! The first seeker to head that way is going to get a bumper crop.

One person got close to me but ran right by without seeing me (I ducked behind the bins out the back of the takeaway)

He’s a thought. Scoring could be good but it would have to be weighted to the hiders and not incentivise being caught. Eg. 2pts per position that your caught in. Then give 1pt per find as a seeker?

Or just a simple finders and hiders league table to show who was found when and who has done lots of finding?

Made it back from my run without being found :-)

[ponders how much time I will spend refreshing the game feed today and how many finger nails I will have remaining by mid-morning...]

Found! Not sure I'll find anyone today as I'm only doing a small walk.

HowFar?
“Paul N pulled HowFar?out of a bog” is a worryingly accurate description of where I was hiding. This game is too clever.

LOL 😂

The seekers have been close. Expect to be found soon. I won’t get out for a run until tomorrow morning though. Will there be anyone to find by then? 😜

Ha HowFar, appropriate place for a Fermanagh man!

Just don't ask what happened with PaulTheBulider 😲

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.
