Niantic decision on Shard #12

We looked into the actions and timings surrounding Shard #12. We talked to people involved, players who were coordinating efforts on both sides and those in contact with people involved to have determined the following:

The blocking link from Cocos Island to Sri Lanka was dropped at Cocos Island by a bad actor at 06:49am UTC. A "link rail" was then thrown four minutes later at 06:53am UTC by an ENL Agent from Indonesia. With the next jump window occurring at 11am UTC, Sri Lanka ENL already had a plan in place to drop this blocker in Sri Lanka and link the Shard. Sri Lanka ENL Agents arrived and dropped the portal that would have held the link from Cocos Island at 10:22 UTC, even though the blocking link was taken down by bad actors. The shard was linked shortly thereafter to Indonesia, in time for the 11am UTC jump window. Without the actions of the bad actor we are extremely confident that this jump would still have occurred as planned given everything we have been able to verify.

It is a shame the Shard was interfered with, depriving those coordinating and in place the opportunity to execute their plan as intended. However, the outcome in all likelihood would have been the same.

The outcome of this investigation is that Shard #12 will not be moving and will continue to be counted. We acknowledge that bad actors interfered but the evidence is clear that the Shard would have moved regardless with the outcome having been the same.

EDIT: Timezones and match can be hard at times. The link dropped by Sri Lankan ENL Agents in the post previously read 12:22 UTC. That was a typo it was 10:22 UTC. 12:22 UTC was with the +2 timezone of the data collection and we failed to adjust that timestamp accordingly like the others. The link in question was at this Portal. Agents can view COMMs to verify: https://intel.ingress.com/intel?ll=8.618552,81.217259&z=17&pll=8.618552,81.217259

Avenir was defeated!
In the current minutes, Agents are hacking this media, depicting Avenir in one final, menacing speech:

You have deactivated REDACTED!
Clever...
This will only delay us!
We will infiltrate prime as we did redacted
and then... you will have nowhere left to hide.

Another battle is won, Agents. But the war against Nemesis continues...

@IUENG

🎉 Today we reached 14 thousand members!

Our heads are still fully blown by this phrase, the celebrations for 12345 members were only on June 8th, how is it possible we grew up for over 1.7k people in almost 4 months?

In this same period of time, a lot has happened: many Ingress Prime improvements, the Nemesis Series start, monthly Global Challenges, end of support announced for Scanner [REDACTED] which is now gone forever, a new kind of Event introduced (NIA Field Tests), Global XF Shards and much, much more! We enjoyed living all these happenings with you by our side.

So, first of all, thank you, Agents, for the constant support you give to the channel, it’s become even more evident when we opened our discussion group (which I honestly never expected to last; I repent and will never doubt again).
As we said last milestone, you are what keeps the channel running: without community, Ingress is no more, so thanks a lot for being this awesome.
Please keep contacting us for anything, from questions, to Anomaly calls to action; from events pictures, to just a “Hello! How’s it going?”. We’re humans, we’ll read every message (although maybe we can’t answer all of them in busy periods ‘^^)

Next, I would like to give a special mention to @PiPrime, @CrystalWizard and @Ishira, who help us admins in the moderation of our discussion group and answered our call for help with enthusiasm!

Last but not least, I (carlobolla) personally would like to say thank you to @GigaThunder and @GloomyQueen, fantastic colleagues that, now more than ever, push me to keep up this endeavour: I am just an Ingress enthusiast, not a machine, but these girls have double the energy and passion than me and without them this channel would not have reached this point. May this collaboration and our friendship last forever!

If you want to help us more than what you already do, we have a feedback form you can fill in if you have a couple minutes to spare, or a donation link to help us buy a coffee for anomaly nights (or XF Shards nights :P), or swag we’ll give away on special occasions :)

Yours: carlobolla, GigaThunder and GloomyQueen for @IUENG

Following our victory in the Avenir Global Shards Event, the Avenir defeat medals will be pushed to scanners this Thursday, October 3rd.

From 17 UTC of October 3rd to 17 UTC of October 10th the ADA Refactor/Jarvis Virus hack rate will be increased 1.5x and the Portal decay rate will decrease by 50%.

Information on NL-1331 in Seoul events

RSPV and more info

▷ Deaddrop and instant random giveaway
A variety of prizes are available!
The traditional Deaddrop method was to find and acquire treasures hidden in real life. But this Deaddrop goes a little differently than before, and since there are no hidden items in the real world, you don't have to go around looking for hidden treasures first. The hints related to Deaddrop will be presented on the NL-1331 RSVP page and the Ingress Korean Telegram channel on the day of the event at 3 p.m.
Based on these hints, the gifts will be given to those who have performed the mission at 5 p.m.
We'll also give you a lot of gifts through the instant random giveaway starting at 5 p.m., so please note.

▷ Ingress Meetup
After finishing the NL-1331X event, we will hold a meeting with a new member of Niantic at the small theater of the Cartoon House on 1F of the Seoul Animation Center that can accommodate 40 people about an hour starting at 6:30 p.m. It will be a time for us to listen to many of your valuable opinions.

As always, we ask you to pay special attention to your safety!
Happy Hacking!

@IUENG

Niantic addressed the questions about Anomaly Tickets exchange.

The company will only allow the following:

• Change from an Onsite Activation (Free) ticket to an Onsite Activation (Paid) ticket. Of course, purchase is needed.

• Change from an Offsite Activation (Paid) ticket to an Onsite Activation (Paid) ticket. Changing an Offsite ticket to an Onsite ticket will generate a promo code to be used to redeem your Onsite ticket for the same location as the original Offsite ticket.

You will also receive two friend Onsite invite promo codes for the city you will be attending once you change your ticket.

The deadline to submit a ticket change request is Wednesday, October 9th, 2019 @ 1700 UTC.
For all ticket exchange questions and requests, please submit a support request in-app.
