No one else playing in my neck of the woods so my purchased traffic light was strategically positioned out of area. Sadly the rent received has failed to deliver a positive return .... The good thing is that it will be a random act of kindness for someone els to pick up later - probably next Saturday by the looks of things.

I've had a similar experience with the system owned traffic lights. I ran through 4 and got 4 "Waveydavey paid 0 credits rent" traffic light notifications on my account, but they've all apparently reset and are currently showing 94 credits rental and are still owned by nobody in particular.

To all those busy reporting coins in rivers: some of us do watersports you know. I have a garmined canoe trip planned. Do feel free to report bugs and traffic lights, though. :)

I still think the best bet would be for coins/bugs etc that are not run/swum/kayaked/biked through should extend their radius each week. Then eventually all markers would become accessible.

Until then I'm going to continue to report bugs that are in the middle of the Thames!

Just been reading up on traffic lights. As the rent drops by 1 point whenever someone goes through (so a parkrun could drop it to zero in one day) then a traffic light worth zero is not necessarily ripe for take over. I wonder if there could be an indicator to show that they can be taken over?

Blimey I've moved loads of bugs and run through Lyra's traffic lights, so had to pay her some money at Cambridge parkrun ;-)

Moved another bug, gained about 1300 points, made a net gain on the randoms and had a lovely run too :-)

Now, about the 2 sets of traffic lights that I should now own .................................

Bob!
Just started looking at this game.

Bugs - If I'm the only person logging runs in my area does that mean once I've cleared the bugs from my mile that they've gone forever?

or do they get randomly replenished?
