The multi is daft. The previous highest total to qualify for round 2 is (I think) 89, but that would place you in the 90s at the moment! 140 odd is needed this time.

I'm guessing that the last 1st round of multiplayer was before a significant amount of people started working from home, hence the higher threshold this time round ?
DS - I'm not a fan of holding back a run for the Monday 12pm cut off, probably because I'm a usually a lunchtime runner but equally I believe that those who cant upload instantly shouldnt be disadvantaged. Maybe any uploads before 12.01 should result in a negative balance ? <tongue in cheek>.
RRR-Caz - hope the chaffing wasnt too painful. Whichever way it goes tomorrow, its been a good tussle, thanks.

GordonG, I'm pretty sure the real Elo ranking has decimal places to it that are not displayed. It's likely that is why.

Multiplayer def varies. Nothing wrong with that tho. I guess it's getting harder as folk start taking it more seriously. Some impressive work in there for week one already. My 144 might not even get me through week 1!

Macca/HG: I think it is the lockdown. This is the first time multiplayer has started when everyone is meant to be sticking to near their home. And wow, it's making a difference to the game!
Now to go out on my bike and try to get myself up from 70th (125 explored) back into the top 64 😨

Update: bike ride done, 155 squares for 55th. That will have to be enough 🤞

This is the first time I've ever been in the multilayer... At the moment my one little owned square is keeping me above the cutoff line, but as I can't run right now I'll be surprised if that's still the case at full time. Ah well, not bad for a first go, I reckon.

It is owning squares that will get you through. Nit exploring.

WS - you are right, of course, but up to now it has always been possible to get through to multiplayer round 2 without owning any. But the bar is rising ....
