#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... "

#OPR #LivePortals

"Agents,
Your effort in helping us fine tune the Operation Portal Recon (OPR) system has been a tremendous help during this beta phase. Portals are going live based on your analysis!! We have received 2.3 million OPR submissions so far, and 51046 portals have been created thanks to your contribution!

To show our appreciation, we are going to reward the top 100 reviewers. The criteria will be subjective and not only limited to how many portals you have analyzed but the quality of your analysis, how many of the candidates you analyzed have been decided on, and other factors. Once again, thank you for your support and assistance. Happy hacking!"

#13magnusreawakens

On May 19th, Ingress will host an event named 13Magnus Reawakens in Camp Navarro, CA, USA.

There are still a limited number of camping spaces available. However, all of the space reserved for RVs has been allocated. If you want to attend with a group, please appoint a group leader.

#13MagnusReawakens #LuminescentHeart

In the spirit of including as many Agents as possible, the #13MagnusReawakens team that is creating a luminescent heart portal also created a series of themed missions around the world. You can participate in their project by completing these missions and posting a picture of your scanner or a selfie. Just be sure to use #luminescentheart in your social post.

#NEWMEDAL

Agents,

The dark road of Via Noir has ended, and 13MAGNUS Reawakens. But your role in what lies ahead is vital... the Portal Network must also be reawakened by your efforts.

From Friday, May 5th 23:59 UTC to Sun May 21st 23:59 UTC, the Ingress Scanner will measure a new kind of Agent statistic: Unique Resonator Slots Deployed.

During this limited time window, deploying at least 1331 Unique Resonator Slots will earn you the MAGNUS Builder medal. Should you deploy at least 3113 Unique Resonator Slots during the period of this campaign, you will instead earn the MAGNUS Architect medal.

How will this be measured?

Each Portal has eight possible slots where Resonators can be deployed. Only Unique Resonator Slot deployments will be measured.

For example, deploying to the due-north slot of a Portal will count as one, but any future deploys to the north slot of the same Portal (upgrades etc.) will not further increment this statistic. This means that you can earn at most eight towards this medal from a single Portal throughout the campaign. The level of Resonator deployed is immaterial.

In order to achieve 1331, or the impressive 3113, you will need to journey deep into the Portal Network — Resonating many Portals.

To help you keep track of your progress this statistic will be temporarily added to the Agent tab of your Scanner.

This metric will be removed from Scanners after the MAGNUS Builder campaign comes to an end.

#NEWMEDAL

More details from the comments:

Tiffany Bloemen: "Does a upgrade count?"

Ingress: "+Tiffany Bloemen if upgrades will only count if you have NOT deployed on the slot before. If Agent A deploys on the North slot and Agent A upgrades that same North slot, it will only count as 1. If Agent B upgrades the north slot then they both get a point."

Jiang Wu: "+Ingress​ so maximum 8 unique per portal right? If I recapture it, does it count again 8 or not? Thank you :)"

Ingress: "Correct +Jiang Wu. 8 per portal. If you recapture it, you will not get points for redeploys."

Aaron Ho: "Would upgrading a resonator on a portal I've not deployed on before be counted as well?"

Ingress: "+Aaron Ho yes. That will count."

Bryant Durrell: "Does a virus give you credit for 8 captures? I don't care one way or the other, I'm just curious."

Ingress: "+Bryant Durrell no. A virus will give you 0 points."

Ten Seventeen: "Does the deploy have to be unique for all of history or just unique during the time of the event +Ingress​?"

Ingress: "+Ten Seventeen consider the portal network a clean slate. It has to be unique for the duration of the campaign only."

Matías Gomez: "+Ingress if I capture and full deploy a portal, then my friend upgrades the portal, then I upgrade, then he upgrades, etc. I get more deploys? Or doesn't count?"

Ingress: "+Matías Gómez if you fully deploy you will get 8 points. When your friend upgrades all slots they will get 8 points. If you then upgrade his you will get 0 points since you've already deployed on those slots. "

Ty3 Dy3: "So if I fully deploy on a portal I am to assume that would be 8 points?"

Ingress: "+Ty3 Dy3 correct. But if you then upgraded those same slots you wouldn't get any points from the upgrade. It's unique slots deployed OR upgraded. "

#NEWMEDAL

Ever more details from the comments:

Jeff Mikrut: "+Ingress​ what if I own the resos as of the day the campaign starts? Would upgrading those count?"

Ingress: "+Jeff Mikrut upgrading those would count."

Sean Anderson: "+Ingress​ the current count will be shown in the Agent Profile, right?"

Ingress: "+Sean Anderson at the start of the MAGNUS Builder campaign your current count will be 0."

Chris Chappel: "+Ingress Do you think you can update the original post with the most common questions here? So that people don't ask the same question without reading the comments."

Ingress: "+Chris Chappel we have someone gathering them and will make an FAQ edit soon that will not be read. /s"

#OPR #Test

Agents,
We have reset test results for users that have joined Operation Portal Recon (OPR) since January 23, 2017. If you joined after this date and did not pass the test you may now study for and retake a new test to try and pass a second time. Best of luck.
