I took my son for a walk last night (he needs more exercise and less screen time) @fetcheveryone and picked a route to get a bug. Even though we went down two streets that would have picked it up it's still showing. Do you know what went wrong?

You have to go beyond the perimeter of your FetchPoint circle to dispose of it, otherwise it doesn't get squished.

Did you walk outside of your circle? At 4.4km, perhaps you didn't.

Btw, it doesn't matter whether you cross the perimeter of the circle before or after you squish the bug, as long as it is part of the same activity.

Ironically I could have dragged it a bit further to take it out of my circle but the sight of 12 year old crying on the street might have aroused suspicion.

So - this is my first time back on here since Jan 2017 (started running again too) and this game seems to have changed quite a bit. Yellow bugs owned by someone else that haven't moved or been squished. Other bugs squished as expected.

Welcome back - you can safely ignore the green and yellow bugs. They are owned by somebody else and not costing you anything - you gain four points each time you run over one of them and the daily penalty to their owner increases.

Thank you

Frequently Asked
===========
1) The scoreboard and markers don't 'reset' on the first of the month any more. They work on a rolling 30 day system.
2) You only need to worry about red bugs.
