Anyone over the age of 12?
There wasn't one under 20, although they did look a little like people that don't shower often.

No one will ever collect all given the newer generations and there are gyms to conquer, world rankings to climb and trading/more battle options yet to come. They are also going to advance the VR element of the game and add even more.

I went to a pokestop that someone had put a lure module on and there were at least ten people wandering in the area using it.
I wish there was some way to get a notification when there was a Pokemon nearby because there's no way I'm going to be walking around staring down at my phone screen

I just turn on the app and put my phone in my pocket. It buzzes when you are near a pokemon.

I do the same thing a lot of the time, and I keep it open in my pocket to hatch eggs faster as well. They will be releasing a vibrating watch/bracelet that can alert you to nearby Pokemon, I think.

I just saw something online that said BYU campus is loaded right now with Pokemon. Might have to stop by later this week and see what I can find.

Lol at still suckered by a "leader board"
Pointless
For those struggling with server issues I've found something that fixes it almost every time for me. I have an Android for the record.
Close and restart the app, then restart your phone, after the phone restarts turn off your location and mobile data, then turn them back on.
That usually works for me, although I've been having less server issues lately and more issues while playing the game (app freezes or glitches, things don't open or move, etc.)
I expect these issues to be fixed after Niantic settles in from the mayhem that this app has caused.

Drop an incense and maybe he'll show up.
For the record I'm always team incense.
I don't have any.
My very first pokemon team was Pidgeot, Graveler, Kadabra, Rhydon, Dragonite, and Blastoise. Nobody told me you had to trade Kadabra and Graveler to evolve them. So they were high leveled.
I'd play if it was "first come first serve" with the spawning Pokemons. Not interested in everyone being able to capture the exact same damn Pokemon, though.
