Hi ,
It looks like you're using an ad blocker.



The revenue generated from the adverts on the site is a critical part of our funding - and it's because of these ads that I can offer the site for free. But using the site for free AND blocking the ads doesn't feel like a great thing to do, which is why this box is so large and inconvenient. Some sites will completely block your access, but I'm not doing that - I'm appealing to your good nature instead. Did you know that you can allow ads for specific sites, whilst still blocking them on others?

Thanks,
Ian Williams aka Fetch
or for an ad-free Fetcheveryone experience!

Sigh
I have a rather odd situation. It seems that an old Fetchie, who no longer logs any training on the site, is still in the Fetchpoint game - so every time I run I get to infect their bugs, I benefit from twice the amount of gems etc, and in return I get no risk of them taking them before me or returning the infection. The leaderboard properly shows the local density to me as "0".

When I rejoined the game in November I was the only one around, so I can only assume that at some point they've logged onto the site for the first time in a while and that's rejuvenated their participation.

Similarly, I have an almost neighbour who is sometimes active (so my density is then 1), and sometimes is not (when my density becomes 0).
I see it as an artefact of the game, like dragging a bug out of the circle even if you go through it after returning to the circle.

Jerboa, one other thing to check is your home point for fetchpoint.

Just finished an EPIC Fetchpoint walk - 7+ miles and 13 bugs squished! Very cold and tired now but at least I'll get a bug bonus tomorrow for the first time in ages :-)

That was a very productive Fetchpoint walk Little Nemo.
Now you'll have only one bug to squish tomorrow. ;-)

The last few posts have solved a mystery for me. My wife is signed up to fetchpoint but a very irregular user of the site. I have often wondered why her density is 1 and mine is 0. Obviously her account recognises my active account but mine doesn't recognise her (mostly) inactive account.
