Hi ,
It looks like you're using an ad blocker.



The revenue generated from the adverts on the site is a critical part of our funding - and it's because of these ads that I can offer the site for free. But using the site for free AND blocking the ads doesn't feel like a great thing to do, which is why this box is so large and inconvenient. Some sites will completely block your access, but I'm not doing that - I'm appealing to your good nature instead. Did you know that you can allow ads for specific sites, whilst still blocking them on others?

Thanks,
Ian Williams aka Fetch
or for an ad-free Fetcheveryone experience!

@fetcheveryone

In the explanatory notes in the box on the right-hand side of the "View Your Current Match" page, the following appears: "However, if you are the first to record your run or ride on a given day, you score double points!"

Should this now be reworded to state "However, if you are the first to visit any square in the grid on a given day, you score double points!"?

PS Or even "... you score double points for that square!".

Am I alone in being confused now about when you get double points (and how many points for each activity and which activities are eligible)?

@Synge, it does now say "double points if you're the first person through that square that day (based on the time you log the training, not the time you ran/biked it)"

The wording seems OK as it is? If A runs through a square they score 4, if B then cycles through it, they score 2. Result: 2 points to A

I am hoping to put together a definitive game guide this week if I get time.

Meanwhile, I've just made an update - if you upload Sunday's run (or any older run) on a Monday after midday, it will no longer count towards your current week. It's tied to date alone though, so if you run on the Monday morning and upload after midday, it'll count towards your current week.

Thanks Lord Fetch :-)

I've got Barky this week, who doesn't seem to be too chatty but has won 4 out of 5 last matches. I moved my home square on Friday in order to clinch last week's game. Now I'm home having got 10 squares on hols and can't get any more squares til Friday night..
In any case I'm stupidly busy so probs won't manage any running til Saturday. *hoping Barky isn't lurking*

Thanks for that - I'd never have engineered level score on purpose.

On the other point, you're right - I should take it easy - I'll just stick to the low level stuff inside the square rather than extending anything too far out into the hills ;)

Looks like an epic battle between myself and Molething this week, we've both done over 20 miles so far and he's edging it 95-88.

I have a theory that he has a load of tunnels radiating from his house under the squares in a most efficient manner.
