But from where I am there's teainlinea blocking half my circle if it's from home and if I position away from that area it's a really long way to the other side of my circle 😂

Flatlander Jan 2022 12:43pm, 21 Jan 2022 2,340 posts	Quote Pin Flatlander you should be able to. On the Fetchpoint map, toggle on the greyed out "no entry" icon in the list of icons, go to the inaccessible point on the map and click the "no entry" marker. In the pop up box with "Marked inaccessible by Hanneke" click on the black tab "Reachable?" and the point will be reset.

Bright Strider Jan 2022 2:00pm, 21 Jan 2022 264 posts	Quote Pin Bright Strider A principle that is occasionally recited here is 'your circle, your rules'. If your bug is inaccessible to you, then by all means mark it as such. Objects other than bugs do not matter as much, in terms of accessibility to you. It seems as though other objects being laid by the game are not reassigned to another point; rather, they just don't land. Running through should clear them, but it is possible that it does not always work, as Flatlander says. A possible explanation is that GPS's idea of where you went does not match the Fetchpoint map's idea of where you went.
Bright Strider Jan 2022 2:02pm, 21 Jan 2022 265 posts	Quote Pin Bright Strider On another matter: 20 point flowers. I recently went through a 20 point flower that had been watered eight days ago. Afterwards, the date of last watering did not change, so it does look as though it had reached its watering limit as well as its points limit.

You have a good point about bugs being a bit of a special case. With this more nuanced passing of flowers I managed to pass 1500 running-only today. It's worth noting how the emphasis gradually changes from jewels to flowers as more beds or skeins are planted.

My score on day x doesn't seem to match score the day after less any penalties on the second day. If that makes sense. e.g Monday total = 267 Tuesday penalties = -96, total on Tues morning is 84 (not an actual example)
