Would someone come and pick my well watered flowers please? I'm planting some fresh ones in Yorkshire at the moment, but the ones I left down in Hampshire are getting very point rich and no one ever seems to go there apart from me!

A full summer of regular intervals in the park left enough flowers and heavily watered flowers for 57 DoP to come along and pick them all in December and gain us about 1.25 million points each. But that was months worth of twice weekly sessions in the same place - some folks have got that in 2 days by logging nothing!

But if the player in the number one spot on the leaderboard gained all their points from flowers being picked (as they have logged no training), surely they would be at best in the number two spot as the person doing the picking would have earned extra points from at the least planting new flowers?
I think there must be a glitch!

I've just run through one Gore marker and have been credited with two - that must have been because my Garmin was a little bit lost, but I've also got credit for watering plenty of flowers where the map shows no flowers. ISTM I cannot water flowers anyway without planting some new ones, yet it happened today.

You can water without planting - if there are several peoples circles in your area with gaps between them then there are likely to be flowers in the gaps, but you will only plant your own if you are in the gaps at the right point of your route.

Could it not be that they have simply set their security settings (or whatever they are called) so that their training is not displayed.
But I get the general complaint - the game has become far too skewed to allow a handful of people to score millions of points over a month, whereas I can run 150 miles in a month and score a few hundred thousand. But it is after all only a game - and a free one at that. My aim is now to get 5 gore-illas and anything else is just a bonus... *makes jedi hand movements whilst chanting: pick my flowers in Canons Park*

I picked up two Gore-illas on my lunchtime ride, is that right or should I only have one a day to chase?
