#FateOfThe13
"Some days ago, I mentioned that I was interested in hearing the opinions of Agents around the world regarding the fate of the members of the current Niantic MAGNUS — Who should stay? Who should go? And why? Responses have begun to emerge… and I’m hoping there will be more as this important and difficult subject is probed and argued… The responses thus far have been interesting and creative."

Some of the responses of Agents at PAC's question are listed at this link.

Continue hacking Circle K portals until 16 April 2017 to score points for your region. Remember, this competition is a cross-faction event.

#Interview with Niantic’s Kawashima

Translated by FevGames

An article was recently released in Japan, with an interview with Mr. Kawashima from Niantic. This article was full of interesting tidbits so we’ve collected translation segments that seem interesting.

> Overview

- Niantic Japan has a new office.
- The 91 shards traveled 640,000 km corresponding to 16 laps of the Earth:
~ Enlightened moved them for 370,000 km
~ Resistance moved them for 270,000 km
- “Ingress is going to change more and more, various formats” – Mr. Kawashima

> Operation Portal Recon

- Operation Portal Recon will be available in Japan for agents L15 and L16 on April 12th.
- 9,000 new portals were added as result of OPR, while 11,000 portals were dismissed (rejected)
- Portal Recon will affect Pokémon GO as well as Ingress and all of the product of Niantic

>Ingress 2.0

- Ingress is a very important product for Niantic.
- Version 2.0 is coming within the year (maybe earlier depending on testing)
- UI and Illustrations are changing (to get a "fresh feeling" as said by Mr. Kawashima)
- Ingress will adopt Unity

>Ingress Wearable

We want to adapt and make things like Pokémon GO Plus. More wearable products

Where to share it? Here: https://twitter.com/ingress/status/851825863767113728

On Reddit (https://goo.gl/ud6FPp) the Niantic employee soloredcup writes «Please note the original post says "may". While we'll do our best to reward as many as we can, we won't be able to give a code to everyone»

@IUENG
This is the content of the passcode Niantic is tweeting back to the Agents who shared their profile screenshot on Twitter!

Congratulations to everyone who received one!

#WorldCompetitions #NotOfficial

The Res and Enl players, waiting between official niantic events, created two competition (one only for res, one only for enl) to have fun. We remember you that these are not official events so no medals in game are involved. Here a little description of them:

#ENL #EBL

Enlightened BundesLiga ( #EBL ) is a competition between ENL agents all around the world. It takes place every month (for example start at the 2st of July and end at the 1st of August), it is based on the profile stats and you can decide to take part of the group or the individual challenge. Individual players can only compare them against all other players on a scoreboard but the main focus is based on the teams. In the teams daily, weekly and monthly can be compared and used for inner community competitions.

You can join here: @EnLigaBot send /start
Complete information here: https://erleuchte.de/ebl-beta-season-iv/

#RES #StE17

Smurf the Earth is a global competition open to all RES Ingress players. Agents compete in many different categories to see who comes out on top. The competition takes place in the 1st and 3rd week of May 2017, so you have two opportunities to do your best. Stats are recorded via “The Grid” which is a res only stats tool.

You can join here: https://the-grid.org

"Agents,

Starting today, we will be opening Portal submission requests via the Ingress scanner for Level 8+ Agents in Brazil and Korea. Before submitting potential Portal candidates, please ensure that you familiarize yourself with the guidelines for high-quality Portals. Portal submissions will be analyzed in the Operation Portal Recon tool by our Beta-tester Ingress Agents. While not all Portal submissions will be accepted, your contributions will enable us to expand the Portal network in the future. As always, we appreciate the diligence and help provided by our Agents to help curate and expand the Portal Network.

For full details regarding high-quality Portal candidates, please review the following guidelines: https://support.ingress.com/hc/en-us/articles/207343987-Candidate-Portal-criteria

—The Ingress team"

#SanFrancisco #Kodama

"Agent KodamaSmiles is going to be in San Francisco this Sunday and is hosting an impromptu XFAC meet-up at the Ferry Building at 2:00 PM.

What you may not know is that she isn't in San Francisco for sightseeing -- she's on a mission.

And that's why I need your help...

Agents, here's your mission:

We need to run a recon operation on Kodama from Noon to 2PM on Sunday. I know approximately where she will be at Noon, and we know where she's going to be at 2PM, so we need to keep track of her on her journey.

> During that two hour window, use the Scanner to attempt to locate @KodamaSmiles. It's likely that she will be unable to resist taking down some Portals and this will help reveal her location.
> When she is in public (only), try and take pictures of her without getting spotted by her or spooking her.
> Try and follow her if she attempts to evade the tails -- but don't get burned!
> If she attempts to leave any dead drops or intel caches, try and recover them.
> Try not to get spotted.
> Share any images you can capture or intel you can recover using #KodamaRecon
> I'll sweeten the pot and throw some dynamite passcodes at the Agents who gather great intel during the course of this operation.

Counting on you, Agents... "
