Scores have been added to the original post (rules amended too)

(07 Jun 2014, 3:10 pm)Dan My immediate assumption was somewhere near Birtley (ANE and GNE), given that it would have been too obvious to hide it somewhere near a location where a Go North East and Stagecoach North East's X34 served.

Wasn't too far off, I guess... Tongue

Not far off, but I do have a location in mind in Gateshead - which isn't too obvious and sees buses belonging to GNE and SNE passing by... Angel

It has been a while since the roaring success of the last 'game'.

Any takers for a date some time over the next few weeks, before the weather starts getting all rubbish?

I would be up for it. I am purchasing a Network One monthly ticket on Tuesday Smile.

Maybe hide 2 or 3 this time if you can be bothered? I'd give it a go like.

I'm not game for a soaking like aureolin was, but providing the weather's decent and it doesn't clash with anything else, I'm happy to participate!

Will suggest a date for a Saturday in a week or two (already have a few locations in mind) and we will see who is up for it.

Hopefully it won't be raining this time and will stay dry all day!

If there is enough interest, I will set a 'hunt' up for this coming Saturday.

It will be within Tyne & Wear and providing interest is there, I will set up more than one location.

I too think I may be a bit busy. Certainly occupied on the morning, not sure about the afternoon.

Would prefer it if you could delay it Andreos!

Too much running around that doesn't involve hunting out envelopes?!

The event didn't go ahead, due to lack of interest.

Not sure the weather forecast will have helped.

If anyone is wanting to do it - give me a date or two and lets see if we can do it in the future.

Anyone up for it? T&W location and before the holidays are over?

It's a bit more low-tech than Pokemon Go, but if we get enough people interested - I will set some clues on a date tbc.

Maybe, but I don't have the best of starting places for T&W. Also I am now busy every Saturday until the start of October.

Wasn't necessarily going to be a Saturday. Was open to dates as I have a bit flexibility to hide the envelope somewhere and then head off to do some work from the office, a McNasties or at home - sending the clues out every half hour or something.

As with the last game, there would be a start time of say 1130/1200- so it would give people plenty of time to get in a tactical position.

How would this Friday sound? I can get the envelope hidden and then send the clues out via PM an hour or two later.
