Is it just me, or do some of the Relay Markers not move properly? I have been over a couple regularly as part of my commute routes and they have not moved at all. I'm sure I should have moved them based on my routes.

I've experienced that too, meant to highlight it but forgot until now... I had two northwest relays next to one another, my route definitely ran through both, one moved, the other stayed put!

Had the same problem DY. I think it is due to the new matrix and how it allocates slots, if the slot where the relay was due to go is already filled then it doesn't move although it does still give you the points. Furthermore I've found if you pass over it again the following day you get the same points again and it still doesn't move. As it still new not sure if you keep it 'live' if it will eventually move. Can't remember if I've already dropped Fetch a message about this.

Should also add if you do pick up two relays and then are due to fall into the same slot only one will move although you get both lots of points

Fetch is UKJMR's increase in relay points correct as the 14700 jump means a relay or relays have moved 3675 miles today

Hello Dickie *waves*

oh dear mick, you've been knocked off the top spot! Has UKJMR just come out of nowhere or was he hovering around in the top ten anyway?

I started clearing up my patch this morning, I put down an infected bug and picked up 3 diamonds among other things. :)

Although only his first post Dickie has been a player for a long time and has often been near the top.

Minardi - UKJMR would been around the 80 mark in the league without the large relay score from yesterday. I know that there are a few differences in the way relays work since the changes and some unexpected as mentioned in my other posts. To score 14700 points could mean there is another bug in the system or it could have been possible for someone else to have transported UKJMR's relay to say America by leaving they watch on during the flight, as does happen. However in fetchpoint for this to happen there would have been two people getting this score which there isn't so it's my view its probably a bug that needed flagging.

glad you understand Mick!

Game is going well for me
I got a traffic light today (as i ran from a different location)

i also reported a bug which did not respawn.....I wonder if they dont respawn when they are randomly allocated an location that is already occupied?? I ve also had the odd day with one or two prize tokens missing and wonder if that also could be the reason??
