#Tessellation - Round1
Deadline for the first round of Tesselation is Thursday, October 17th, 1700 UTC, less than 3 days! Did you try to earn points for you faction?
A) Who killed Victoria Kureze?
No details to point out.
B) Umbra
The physical Tessera was handed to a member of the Enlightened Faction in Sacramento, in celebration of the Enlightened's overall Anomaly victory, and their defeat of Umbra. Physical Tessera is worth 5 points for the Faction of the Agent who acquired it.
There will be exactly one prediction from each Faction, and there will be no voting. If either are correct, 1 point will go to the Faction that guessed correctly first. Otherwise, Nemesis gets their shot.
C) Myriad Ultimatum
An Enlightened and a Resistance called to have found it
D) Hank on the Shards of Avenir
No details to point out.
E) Who killed Lightman?
No details to point out.
ENL 0 - RES 0 - NEM 30
Note: Points are assigned at the end of all the steps of a Tessera

#Tessellation - Round 1
Let's sum up what happened in the previous days.
PAC made clear that a malfunction at the NIA prevented some people from acquiring the media that the Tethered Hand had placed in certain Portals; Specifically the Tesserae “Who Killed Victoria Kureze?”, “Hank on the Shards of Avenir” and “Who Killed Lightman?”.
These are the outcomes NIA ruled for these three Tesserae:
Who killed Victoria Kureze
Since the first Agent (RES) who hacked the portal didn't receive the media, but an ENL Agent posted the discovery on the forum first, the Tethered Hand assigned a point to both Factions.
Hank on the Shards of Avenir
Both the first hacker and the first Discoverer were Resistance Agents. The point was assigned to the Resistance
Who Killed Lightman
At the time, no Agent had discovered the Tessera. Yesterday, a Resistance Agent first, then an Enlightened Agent discovered the Tessera, so a Point was assigned to the Resistance.
Moreover, an Agent managed to open a thread on the Tessellation subforum (this was not intended by NIA to happen) and said to have found the "Umbra's Departure" Tessera.
PAC later confirmed that the media is indeed a Tessera and opened a second thread containing the names of the six Discoverers (three RES and three ENL). Discovery Point went to the Resistance. One prediction for each faction has already been made.
OTHER TESSERAE
Myriad Ultimatum
Discovery point to the Enlightened. A Resistance Agent also discovered the Tessera and both already made their predictions.
Umbra
PAC is waiting for the prediction of the ENL Agent holding the physical Tessera. (5 points assigned to the ENL for retrieval)
SCORE SUMMARY
ENL | 7
"Umbra" deaddrop found (5) + 2 Discovery Points (2)
RES | 4
4 Discovery Points (4)
NEM | 30

Andrew Krug just confirmed on his personal channel that asking a refund won't impact receiving the Umbra Anomaly Medal.

Another doubt clarified by Andrew Krug: if you used a free promo code, you will not receive any CMU for the issues in the Umbra Anomalies.

PAC now has now created a Poll for each tesserae with the faction predictions. The Enlightened and the Resistance prediction with most votes will move to the next phase.

Questions for Carrie & Enoch
Truthseekers:
Ingress Update
We've identified an issue on Ingress 2.34.1 (currently in closed beta) and will skip its wider release. Ingress 2.35 will be the next available release version, and includes fixes for quickly creating portal links, improved XM visibility on high-end devices, a tentative fix for speedlock issues when Ingress is backgrounded, and more.
Thank you for your patience,
Brian

Krug says in his channel:
"In honor to Resistance Agent EllaMinnowPea that starting today there will be a free 0 CMU Reawakens Beacon appearing the In-App-Store.
EllaMinnowPea immensely positive impact on the community, the team wanted to explore offering Agents a way to remember their friend."
His think this specific Beacon seemed fitting as a first step towards doing something for those who have given back to the Ingress community. Especially for Agent EllaMinnowPea since she enjoyed was Camp Navarro was about and the MAGNUS symbolism of this particular beacon.

The answers for Andrew Krug's October AMA have been published. Here are the most important ones in our opinion.
Ingress Prime: issues and features
• Andrew Krug has the goal of re-establishing the Beta Program by the end of October. It will be composed by around 100 people.
• Engineers are working on the issues regarding server performance during massive events. It's quite tricky to resolve if the problem affects external services.
• The original goal was to make vibration consistent across iOS and Android, it will be re-tweaked and made more subtle on the latter
• The Portal Picture orientation issue should be fixed in v2.33.1.
• A read-only view of our Inventory on the Intel map has been discussed: its priority is not determined yet.
• Apple ID login will be implemented, as per Apple request, early next year
• Niantic has a program for sponsored Wayspots, Ingress needs to continue to experiment with different ways to increase its value, both to players and to the team. The player asking has proposed the program as an alternative for paid Anomaly Participation.
Community
• The replacement for the Trusted Reporters program will be set in place shortly.
• Dark mode for the forum is being asked by the player support group to the platform vendor.
• In response to the complaint about lack of Niantic responses in the App Feedback forum section, Andrew says that Niantic is working on an updated experience for submitting bugs/feedback.

Andrew Krug just updated the community on the Trusted Reporter program v2.0.
The new Trusted Reporters have been selected, onboarded, and with the help of the Vanguards are putting the new system through a few tests to work the kinks out and get the workflow smoothed out.
A public announcement on the program is due next week
Friendly reminder: the Vanguards and the TRs are under NDA and firewalls from each other. Don't bother them asking any info about the matter.
