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!

Yeah, I think little snippets of trash talk would be the way forward :-)

I know it's just for fun - it just seems that the morning commuter has an unfair advantage over those who for work/life reasons can't do their stint until the evening (you can tell I'm a public sector manager, with this deep concern over fairness of policies for those who are affected by demands of work/life balance).

Obviously level of opacity will be an issue in an overlay, but I would like to easily be able to see which paths/roads I can use to run/ride through unclaimed parts of the grid.

As I said, early days, but it was just an observation that I was pleased to see today's detour, carefully planned to squish a bug, earned me some new squares, rather than me planning a route to win squares. Although this is possibly partially to do with the walkover nature of this week's match (so far - until the Icemaiden awakes...or melts...or freezes...or whatever it is that Icemaiden's do to mean they suddenly leap into action) .

I hadn't thought of the opposite angle of "zoom round the zeros"...I guess this links in nicely with the second one, making it easier to plan a route to mop up a whole chunk of zeros.

I found it difficult trying to plan a route with that miniscule map. An overlay would be an excellent addition.

The map is particularly difficult to deal with on mobile.

Looks good on mine. I imagine you might need to say what mobile/operating system.

For the game front screen can the score of the current match be visible somewhere near the top of the screen (maybe in the panel with view current match)?

When I just want a quick look at the current score I currently have to scroll down until I find my match - so instead I tend to click into "view the current match" because that is quicker than scrolling down to find myself in the list.

I also like the idea of the map being on the score grid. Maybe it needs to be both on the score grid and next to it?

I do like the trash talk ;-) In fact, I think I like the trash talk a lot more than I like the running...

Nice addition that we get notifications when your game has been 'updated' (opponent has recorded something).
