I miss the goreilla's on Fetchpoint, it lost its appeal, despite loving a diamond its just not the same looking for those instead. I don't need the freebie prize draw.

Oh heck... I looked didn't I... the bit I didn't like was that I couldn't see what I had collected so couldn't see the point, just looked at the 'your activity' bit and can see that I can revert to the old page. Right fetchpointing squares - like pokemon for runners hahahahahahaha

ooo I used t love the Goreillas! I had forgotten about those!

I find I swing from one to the other, they aren't massively compatible, unless I am missing a trick... I may go out later and try and squish some bugs (I have lots) and that should get me some more squares, but then there is multiplayer to worry about... haha see obsessed!

I remember them! You had to collect them to get in the draw for a prize, I think. On Fetchpoint back in the day when I remembered how to play the game properly! ;)

gorilla kingkong can't remember which one it is!

They'd pop up occasionally and if you grabbed one you'd be entered into a monthly (?) prize draw to win something from Gore

And before Goreillas we had Garmangles - those were the days :)

For those who don't go back that far - once upon a time, Fetch had this game sponsored. We had to collect a minimal number of 'sponsors logos' to be entered into a monthly draw to win prizes donated by those sponsors.

When Garmin were the sponsor, the logo was their triangle - hence Garmangle
When Gore were the sponsor, fetch used the gorilla (or was it kingkong) icon instead - hence Goreilla

It all made perfect sense at the time :)
