Anybody else playing this game?
What level are you?
What problems are you having since the latest update?
I'm now level 18 but keep getting a blank map so losing out on Pokeballs etc. I even lost an egg as it hatched yesterday because the screen froze.

No idea what you are talking about, but my friend's daughter plays it, and there seems to be loads at Warwick Castle on our visit there yesterday!

Level 17 - My work is near a park so can collect loads over lunch. Caught an Electobuzz today which I was pleased with.
Also have an egg ready to hatch is 0.2km so hopefully this is good an not another voltorb
A horse walks into a bar and the bartender asks, "Why the long face?"
A pony walks into the bar and whispers, "I'll have a beer, please." The barkeeper asks, "Why are you whispering?".
"I'm a little hoarse."

I'm level 18. I have nothing where I live, have to travel a fair few miles before hitting my nearest 'stop or 'gym.
Have you noticed that more are taking hits then running away? It's just happened to me with a Venonat. Grrrr

Level 13 I think but today was the first time I've played in a city.
Had the blank map problem a few times, thought it was just my signal because I couldn't check in with anyone else. Also lost a 5k egg.

When that problems first happened to me, I found that turning my phone off, waiting a few minutes then turning it back on again solved the problem. It doesn't any more
I was advised that my missing hatchling would be found in Recent or journal but it wasn't. Suppose I should be happy it wasn't a 10k egg that froze.
I've ordered a new phone bank which should arrive tomorrow which will help a lot as my battery flattens really quickly.

Thought my egg might be in the journal but yeah, blank. Not sure I even saw what was in it. I've got quite a few 10k eggs (maybe an advantage of being far from pokestops) but trying to save them until it's stable.
I also got a power bank but could have probably got away with not using it today.

I do feel sorry for those with Windows phones. I thought by now, the range of apps they use would have extended since I had one.
