#ItemsRemoval The action will be continuous and not just a single instance. Niantic is not planning to ban anyone who received illecit items and they will not remove deployed mods (some players may not know the item was illicitly gotten when they deployed it. Benefit of the doubt and all that).

Agents,
We are thrilled to let everyone know that we will be extending access to Operation Portal Recon to any Agents that are level 15. We are also proud to unveil the design of the tiered medals that can be earned based on the number of quality Portal evaluations conducted by an Agent. This medal will demonstrate your commitment to helping us improve the Portal Network and everyone’s Ingress experience. Specific details about the tiered medals will be unveiled soon.

We want to offer special thanks to all of the beta testers and level 16 Agents who analyzed Portal candidates over the last several weeks. There are now 4.5m candidates remaining to be analyzed in Operation Portal Recon and to date, you have been responsible for:
1.9m Candidates Analyzed
432k Portals rejected
182k New Portals introduced to the Portal network.

#FateOfThe13 #FinalDecision
"At Noon PST on Monday June 19th you must tell me what fate holds for the twelve researchers whose shards you captured during Fate Of The 13 event. Consult with your factionmates and amongst yourselves. Will each of the researchers retain their archetype or will you choose to change them? The answer lies with you.”
-PAC

#Akira #Challenge

Agents,
Agent Olympiad is fast approaching. We want to ensure a fair and uninterrupted environment for those attending. Agents are highly discouraged from trying to prepare for the event in advance and congregating around the venue on the day of the event.

The event will be played in a closed environment and advanced preparation, like farming Portal keys, will not be of any use to event participants. Please respect the Agents involved in this event and help us make a spectacular night for them without attempted interference from external Agents. As always, NIA Gamemasters will strive for fair play, and in cases deemed appropriate, will take actions to preserve the integrity of the event.

Kick back, relax, and enjoy the show. That is how you can contribute best.


You can catch the live stream for free through Niconico via the links below:

#OPR #MoreDetails

Since when the OPR opened the doors to the L15 agents, more questions started to arise. Here what we found on Reddit:

Q: If I set my home and my bonus location, will the system continue to use my current location?
A: Yes, the system will continue to use it.

Reading the comments and using a logical line of reasoning, use home and bonus locations for other two areas that you know but where you don't play everyday can become interesting.

Q: Is the system designed to not ask to review portals really near to myself?
A: Probably is true for not have biased reviews, but we cannot know it for sure. We are sure instead that rural portals are prioritized.

#FateOfThe13 #FinalDecision

"We didn't seek out this responsibility, and as the weight of the decision we were tasked with settled upon us, we reached out to additional agents around the world. We sought the advice of sensitives who have studied, analyzed, questioned and actively participated in the ongoing investigation of exotic matter and its effects. As our decision would have to represent the opinions of all of our teammates who had fought so hard to win the Fate of the 13 global shard event, we asked for input from the worldwide Enlightened community. We immersed ourselves in the history of the Niantic Project, and re-examined the documents we thought we knew, as well as those still new to us.

The Enlightened won the burden of governing the fate of these 12 researchers, but with that we also have the opportunity to set a legacy of our choosing. The Enlightened stand for progress but not at the expense of free will."

Niantic Magnus decision summary:

1. The Catalyst - Devra Bogdanovich - REMOVED
2. The Explorer - Hank Johnson - REMOVED
3. The Dreamer - Roland Jarvis - RETAINED
4. The Alchemist - Oliver Lynton-Wolfe - RETAINED (no choice)
5. The Spiritualist - Stein Lightman - REMOVED
6. The Omniscient - ADA - REMOVED
7. The Interpreter - Carrie Campbell - REMOVED
8. The Trickster - Misty Hannah - REMOVED
9. The Skeptic - Martin Schubert - REMOVED
10. The Listener - Enoch Dalby - REMOVED
11. The Visionary - Victor Kureze - REMOVED
12. The Humanist - Yuri Alaric Nagassa - REMOVED
13. The Patron - Ezekiel Calvin - REMOVED

Niantic Global Community Manager +Andrew Krug's European tour continues with another xfac meetup, this time with agents in London. We hear they had a lively Q&A session, some of our highlights were:

- Ingress V2 should be out this year, and you will not need to start over.
- OPR is getting through the backlog at a good rate, and portal submissions will return. No specific news on the badge, but expect Onyx to take a "typical" reviewer around a year to achieve.
- Anomaly rules need to reach agents earlier, and Niantic are hoping to improve on this.
- Niantic plan to open up the official swag store globally, although no date as yet.

You can see everything that was discussed here: https://goo.gl/Qt8kqH
