Loving the sound of the new icons especially and coiny pollen, which might encourage me to run from work. If I run once a week with the club will the coiny pollen still be there the next week?

Wonder if the map might become a bit overcrowded, but very happy to wait and see. Still thinking that we should be able to move bugs further before they get squished, but accept the point that the game is still in early development and that we need to see how everything works together rather than focus on one particular element.

ChrisHB Dec 2011 7:16pm, 11 Dec 2011 6,699 posts	Quote Pin ChrisHB Looking around where I'm planning to run tomorrow, I see the streets of London are, in terms of this game, quite literally paved with gold. But the places I fancy running in, such as the Thames Path, have been stripped of their markers, like a fruit-tree that's been ravaged by parakeets. Fair enough, and I understand the rules, but I don't feel as if I should have to make a choice between running in ever-decreasing circles around the streets of Hounslow to gain a million points and somewhere I actually want to run, such as along the River. What do real Londoners think?
