Also, how does the system determine where "south" is vs. "southwest?" That seems like some complicated math, especially after six squares. Let's say a hunter gets lucky and gets a six-moves-away report. If it's "three southeast three south" is that southeasterly direction or southerly direction? If there is any way to clarify how this would work, I think it increases the feasibility, instead of leaving it as a black box that Kevan would have to figure out.

Not so complicated to define what is SW, just not all that accurate on the fringes, but close enough for the bush. If you look at the pic, that's how it could work. And this suggestion means you can't track them to the 6th square, once they get past the 5th, you've no idea where they go, the trail runs cold. You still only get the result from one of the first 5 blocks out -- boxy T L ZS Nuts2U DA 11:42, 6 May 2007 (BST)

Opps, the suggestion is for 6 blocks... damn, but minor difference, the rest still applies -- boxy T L ZS Nuts2U DA 14:15, 6 May 2007 (BST)
