VJ - I'm tending to get a positive return from the randoms overall. Gambled on a clump of 3 of them the other night and it paid off :-)

I think the traffic lights are working at weekends.

To quote from the game guide "To avoid being lynched by racers, traffic lights only charge a fee on runs uploaded Monday to Friday".

Fetch, Object Oriented, really, oh dear oh dear, you'll need alot of tea for that.

I ram all over the shop at lunchtime, so lets see what happens as regards coins.

not sure if the weekend change to traffic lights is having immediate effect, or will not happen until December

I seem to have avoided any traffic light costs on the run I just uploaded. :-)

The blinking Garmin took a shortcut through building missing the 2 bugs I made a point of running through. In an attempt to make it up to me it also took me for a loop into the Thames so I picked up a couple of coins from the middle. Would have prefered to move the bugs though. And I managed to miss Fenchurch Street station entirely so there's still a dratted bug there. It's pretty hard running and map reading, especially when the map is largely obsured by gold coins and the like!

Going to have to go for another run now...

And how did Geprig get control of one of my traffic lights? :-o

I'm finding it quite funny that you are all running with maps while little old me who began life as an orienteer is running naked as it were

fetch how often are new coins generated? and when? since you took out the unused coins in my area i'm left with 6 i might (big might) be able to work into my runs, can beginners get a handicap or something, there are plently in my mile radius but many are in the side of town i've never set foot in or in fields i'll never set foot in or just a bit too far once you work out the twists and turns :-(

Quick question... Is everything being 'reset' for the start of December? So all traffic lights wiped, bugs moved back etc. it effects what I do this weekend...
