Redeeming this passcode on the intel will reward you with a unique media object for that Archetype and also record your solve time for the public leaderboard. The leaderboard will be updated each day, revealing the fastest decoder. 13 Archetypes form a Magnus.

Ingress Japan Employee, Fumi, had an extremely interesting visit to the NL-1331X Vehicle and published a complete report on her personal blog!

This awesome "XM Detection Vehicle" is Niantic's most advanced mobile laboratory and is fitted with computer screens, lights, a big panel that indicates the status of the NL-1331 Portal, and a lot of Ingress-themed details all over it!
Here are some pictures she took, along with the original blog entry (in Japanese)!
You now know what to expect at the next NL-1331 events, which are yet to be organised!

Agent @modos189, one of the developers of the new version of IITC, contacted us to collaborate on an article that would explain the history of this incredibly useful and controversial tool.

He has created a detailed article in which he explains what IITC is, why some Agents might decide not to use it and why so many do instead, the history of the tool development, the people that alternated in carrying on the project and why some bans occurred in December 2013.

Finally we can read what the state of this tool is now, where it is headed and what are the plans for the future.

We would like as many agent as possible to be informed about the tool, especially if you are against it or a convinced supporter, to see the points of view of the other opinion, as we think that this article is neutral and very well detailed.
Thank you @modos189 for your help!

Hi Agents,

Thanks for your participation in the Dreamer 1 decoding challenge.

We’ve been watching the leaderboard and are aware that some of you have solved the challenge and entered the correct passcode but aren’t appearing there. It appears as if this is specific to any Agents who entered the passcode via Intel Map.

The team is aware of this issue and looking into resolving it ASAP.

In the meantime, we’re investigating options to address the leaderboard issue for any affected agents. I’ll provide updates on this discussion thread as they become available.

Thanks for your understanding!

is there really the possibility of new space in the inventory?
What do you think? Do you really need more space?

Niantic was aware that some of you have solved the Dreamer challenge and entered the correct passcode but aren’t appearing there. It appears as if this is specific to any Agents who entered the passcode via Intel Map.

The team solved the problem for future redeemers, but was not possible to recover missing redemptions.

Starting Monday, Lawson and Circle K Power Cubes will be changed into a new XM construct named the Hypercube. The functionality of will be the same as the previous two XM constructs. Any Lawson or Circle K Power Cubes you have in your inventory will be automatically updated. You may see the Hypercube early if you redeem a passcode containing a Circle K or Lawson Power Cube at the moment.

Hi folks,

Firstly, thanks to everyone who has provided input and shared their reactions to this unfortunate issue. I have been back and forth with our product team about this and, while they fully understand everyone’s frustration, it’s not currently possible to add anyone affected to the leaderboard. For that, I’m really sorry. I know many of you put a lot of work into solving this challenge.

We will be implementing is a second leaderboard that will be normalized, tracking your progress beginning with the second decoder challenge, and will exist alongside the original leaderboard, which will continue to track progress from the beginning of the challenge. We know that this isn’t a perfect solution but we hope this will help you have a more fair basis for comparison, while also keeping the full results for those who were not subject to the issue.

Finally, I want to remind you that this doesn’t completely knock you out of the competition, as the challenge will use your 8 best solve times, so you still have many more chances to get a great leaderboard score (or place highly in an individual challenge).

Again, our apologies for the issue and not being able to recognize everyone's efforts, but we do hope that you enjoy the challenges and wish you great success in the upcoming rounds.
