Garfield Nov 2018 4:40pm, 30 Nov 2018 9,579 posts	Quote Pin Garfield I probably need to reposition my grid as there's a golf course in part of it, and they get rather sniffy if we wander off the footpath that goes through the course.

StuH Nov 2018 4:51pm, 30 Nov 2018 2,744 posts	Quote Pin StuH I've got 3 inaccessible squares on Woking Golf Club, not bad considering the area it covers. West Hill GC on the other hand, completely inaccessible.

StuH Nov 2018 4:59pm, 30 Nov 2018 2,745 posts	Quote Pin StuH Occasionally, but I think I only have two squares there.
Lulu Nov 2018 5:18pm, 30 Nov 2018 32 posts	Quote Pin Lulu Although I was recently having a moan about my opponent who was logging all his walking as running (until Wednesday when he walked to the ferry ⛴ terminal and hasn’t been seen since) I would back having more points for walking. I definitely think walking and biking should not score the same - it’s so easy to take a bike out and rack up a few miles in a fraction of the time it would take to walk them. Love that the game has got me taking the bike out though occasionally instead of going somewhere in the car.
JulesR Nov 2018 5:22pm, 30 Nov 2018 25,361 posts	Quote Pin JulesR I’d say the opposite and reward biking where you have to put on a load of layers, gloves, shoe covers, helmet even to ge out of the door in the winter, as opposed to just strolling out normally dressed for a walk. Fair enough about being able to cover way more squares on a bike, but the ‘faff factor’ is huge even without considering bike prep.
McGoohan Nov 2018 5:25pm, 30 Nov 2018 37,041 posts	Quote Pin McGoohan I don’t think we should reward the faff of preparation for an activity just the activity itself. Otherwise we should have fifty points per square for skiing.
