I'm another one in the middle of nowhere on my own, but a) its all hills and so b)half my coins etc are in impassable valley bottoms. Oddly enough I leave the traffic lights that are in inaccessible places and report the bugs! Still, having lots of fun and getting strange looks as to why I run up and then back down some roads.

DT's I don't think it would matter too much if I cracked the code or not ( which I most certainly won't) I just don'y run enough.

Total respect to you for the training volume and points accumulation.

The only thing I would break if I tried that amount of training would be me.

Cheers! In all honesty I have an advantage that due to the density of runners in the area there are lots of markers around, the flip-side being that there are lots of other runners doing the 'obvious' routes so I have to be sneaky on my route planning to find the road less travelled.

Who can explain to me exactly how relays move? If I have one relay for each direction at my home address, and run a circle of 1 mile radius, whose centre is 1 mile north of me, how will the relays end up?

I would expect
NW to be at the furthest point NW from home
similarly for N & NE
because there's a straight line in the named direction from the starting point to a position on my route

Not sure whether W & E would also move. They could move to the extreme W & E points of my run, or they could stay put

I have 4 new bugs all in a very small area I went right through yesterday, I think a clumsy neighbour may well have dropped them or at least most of them ;-) I bet go and tidy them up.

I haven't checked this thread for a while, so I don't know whether this has come up, but I'd really like an option to filter the map to only show particular icons. Living in London, my map is a bit full, so it can be very hard to spot bugs etc.

I'm being bugged by bugs. I did a clear out yesterday but today I have 7 new ones within a mile. 6 I could accept - 2 from me and 2 each from the other 2 registered runners within 2 miles but where did the 7th come from?

Probably one of those other runners has run it from within their one-mile circle into yours, without running it far enough to squish it. Work out who and take your revenge :)

I seem to have 9 bugs this morning, but looking at the map they all look accessible so I might try and clear them up tonight. It might be the only chance I manage to get rid of them all!
