I have just been out - i changed my home Point and put an extra loop in to run over the empty NW.

It’s not uploading from polar though. (Polar problem as it’s not gone to other places either)

Changing homepoint. I've been "found" (on day one!) and have now changed mine with a view to giving me access to different areas of the grid when choosing my next hiding place.

Anyone else think it's balancing things a little too much towards seekers if a seeker can change homepoint so as to get to unvisited squares? After all, there are over 100 seekers in action.

Wonder if there is a way of "freezing" the grid once you're a seeker so as not to make it too easy?

Anyone in the square 11 up from bottom, 5 in from right is a lucky person, don't know how my sat nav missed it. Actually pothunter i was on my way to get a paper, so we should have a bonus point each ;-) .

I failed this morning - I accidentally turned off my Garmin at the start of the sections where I would go through 7 squares and only noticed when I was well past the last of those 🤦‍♀️ 1 is still unvisited on the map.

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.
