Fair enough.
TBH it'll be chance for me as I can't see me spending hours planning routes for this.

sorry if this has been answered already but I don't know how to upload a route... manually or otherwise
I have tried playing with the control button and right/left clicky buttons but nothing has happened so far... and I would quite like to play

It does it automatically once you have loaded route as usual to your log.
That is, so long as you've registered to play

sioUx... it doesn't unless you've uploaded the route, and that's what I don't know how to do

go to routes in train section.
click add route.
click your route out and save.
go to add training manually.
in route- find correct route and choose.
Enter time etc. (should enter distance from the route you plotted)
Enter

I got as far as the add route bit but how do you 'click your route out' ?

Here are some thoughts from a partly sleepless night. Some may be good, some bad, and some capable of improvement.
Basic thought is to replace the random markers with something more like Monopoly's Chance/Community Chest, or those annoying slips you get from Sainsbury's offering money off things you deliberately don't buy. Random markers have (I suppose) an average value of zero, so bring little to the game.
SO:
Get a new WAVA - 100 points, valid for three months
Do three press-ups for 15 points, valid for one day
Log a long slow run for 50 points, valid for a week
Sing a song and learn something about your breathing, 10 points, one day.
Run 300m barefoot
Run a km without opening your mouth
Recruit a new member to your running club
No limit to variations on training that could be encouraged.
Some would need new training categories creating, or there could be a "notification" including a tick-box to claim your points.
What do people think?

Regaqrding traffic lights - it will be interesting to see what happens with them...I agree with the comment on last page about the South Bank. I know from conquercise that very few runners run regularly anywhere within miles of my home, and even then I only know which squares they run through - not which roads they take. So if I am going to use traffic lights it will be on predictably busy places like the Embankment - I saw yesterday that one set of traffic lights seems to already have had 25 people run through it - so even if I am never going to run there it is well worth putting a set there just for the week, and then another set there the next week - but that will make that route totally off limits for anyone playing this game...
Also what happens when you go on holiday for more than a week - you come back and find that you've lost control of all your traffic lights - sounds a bit like going away and returning to find squatters...

There are 3 traffic lights in a row on the road near me - that'll be off my route list for a while then
