Of course, if there are other players that intersect your home circle, you'll be picking up some of theirs too. I think next month we will start with fewer bugs, as it does seem to have freaked a few people out to lose their points so quickly. Instead of a big wallop, I'll make it so there's more than one added each day. Same overall effect, but just a bit kinder

Duchess Dec 2011 10:07pm, 8 Dec 2011 503 posts	Quote Pin Duchess Fetch, could you make it a random number of added bugs, but averaged over time? So you might get one every day for a week or, 2 on Monday then 5 on Thursday. This may be personal but I really dislike getting new bugs every day; it depresses me that they "breed" while I can't get to them (it's good to have days off every now and then ). If it must be regular, could I have more bugs but on alternate days? And fewer system owned traffic lights to start with as well? They could breed during the month as well...

He looked even more confused when I cheerfully told him "I'm just hoovering bugs!"
