I'm going to have to do a lot of scuba diving if I want to pick up the majority of coins in my area :-)

My homezone is about two third city and one third farmland, and includes varying numbers of golf courses, hospital grounds, schools, and cemeteries, some of which are completely inaccessible and others which 80 metres around the markers may allow me to get to with a bit of ingenuity.

I've reported one bug to Mr Fetch as it is right in the middle of the Edinburgh Royal Infirmary, I think they potentially have enough bugs of their own without us adding more :-)

I have Friday off so I'm going to plan my own little rat race to try and hit as many of the markers in my homezone as I can, I wonder if anyone could completely clear their homezone of coins and bugs?

Somebody could - although it would be a surprisingly long run - probably at least 30km but less that 52km (which I think is the minimum distance you would have to run to hit every area of your 1 mile circle with your 80m zone).

Descends = dead ends

Duchess - I'm going to run round the botanics, avoid your lights (if I don't I expect BIG cake) an head to Parkrun.... Hopefully that'll be far enough for both of us!

Great game - I'm actually going to get changed out my PJs!

Fetch - would it be possible on the map for coins that will be disappearing at 4am the following morning to be shown in a different colour...?

Yahoo - mibbe no as many coins as you could expect but I think I scooped up 12 or more bugs an moved many of them 2 or more miles further away :)

Hopefully that helps you a bit Duchess - the ones I was after certainly moved!
