Niantic officially announced the design of the Myriad Anomaly Medal and also the new characters medals! You can buy one of them (Stein Lightman, Victoria Kureze, Martin Shubert) based on which anomaly you go, or you can buy the bundle with all them!

Before starting to summarize the rules for better understanding, we'd like to take a brief moment to put a spotlight on an initiative Niantic came up with to help make Anomalies better Events: the team invited the July Anomaly POCs to cooperate with them in determining the Anomaly game types and customizations!
We believe this is the right type of inclusion most of the community wanted to see, and we are really happy about this choice!
#Myriad Anomaly Rules: Explained!
Chapter 1: Overview
The Myriad Anomalies will consist of three challenges taking place in a three-hour period. Scores for two of these challenges will be recorded with measurements every 20 minutes while one will have the score unveiled at the end of the Event, giving the final result.
The three challenges are:
· Shard Battle (100 points)
· Longest Link Path (100 points)
· Unique Portal Hacks (40 points)
for a total of 240 points per city.
The winner faction of each city will gain the location/time of a strong restocking Portal in that city (given to the winning faction's POCs), while the winner faction of the Myriad Series (tie broken by summing the score of all cities) will gain first choice of a Myriad Key Advantage, usable in the Nemesis Sequence Finale in 2020 (the other faction will get second choice).
All Portals within the Anomaly Zone will have a red, yellow or purple Ornament during the Anomaly. The playbox will be neutralized approximately 20 to 90 minutes before the Anomaly not changing flipcard inoculation. This neutralization may occur multiple times before the Anomaly.

#Contest #Prizes #Nemesis #Glyph
Agents,
As of a few days ago, a new glyph has entered the portal network, classified by the scanner as "Nemesis". The glyph journal want to research that glyph, but unfortunately, it is very, very rare. This is why they want to call on the help of agents again and are running another contest.
To participate, you need to glyph hack a portal and screenshot all glyphs during the result screen of the glyph hack and send the screenshot to @InvestigateXM. It doesn't matter if you didn't draw all glyphs correct, if it dosen't contain the Nemesis glyph or if you have already submitted the same sequence, as long as all glyphs are visible. Screenshots where not all glyphs are visible are not counted.
**The contest starts now and runs until Tuesday, July 23rd, 12PM PST**
After the contest is over we'll count all submitted screenshots. The top 3 agents who submitted the most glyphs and the agent nearest to the average will be able to pick from the prize pool, with the 1st agent going first and the average last.
The prize pool consists of character badges for your scanner: 2 Akira'17, 1 Jarvis'18 and Jahan'18.
Happy glyphing!

Niantic is changing their policy on actions taken if ToS or Ingress Community Guidelines are violated.
The new system will make use of three disciplinary strikes.
• Strike 1: Warning
• Strike 2: Suspension for approx. 30 days
• Strike 3: Termination
If you receive any strike, access to Scanner [REDACTED] will be disabled and you'll only be able to read and acknowledge any punishment on Ingress Prime.

#Myriad Anomaly Rules: Explained!
Chapter 2: Shard Battle
During periods in between measurements, Shards and Research Portals (highlighted with a decorated hexagon in yellow for the Enlightened and in purple for the Resistance) will spawn in the playbox. Goal of the challenge is to make a Shard cross as many unique Research Portals of your Faction as possible.
The measurement period will be structured as reported on the picture below: at minute 3 of the measurement period, the first jump will happen, followed by jumps every 5 minutes (at minutes 8, 13 and 18). Jumps may happen up to a minute before or after these times.
At minute 20, Shards and Research Portals will dematerialise to reappear at the start of the next measurement period.
• To make Shards travel to another linked portal, both origin and destination Portals must be of level 4+ (doesn't matter if the portal is not fully deployed).
• Shards will not backtrack to Portals they've been to in the previous 7 minutes
• If many links originate from a Portal holding a shard, it may jump along any of those links and if many Shards are on a Portal, they may jump along different Links.
• If no link is present, and the Shard was still for at least 7 minutes, it will teleport to a random nearby Portal.
Everytime a unique Research Portal is visited by a single Shard, 1 point will be awarded to the Faction owning the Research Portal independently from the color of the Portal. 100 Anomaly Points will then be distributed to the two teams on a percentual basis.

Ingress Prime v. 2.27.3 Release Notes
Agents, In the coming days, you will receive an update to the Ingress Prime Scanner.
Agents from all around the world created a list of issues they believe exist on the new Ingress Prime Scanner App and want to send it as a Letter to Niantic.
We ask you to read it carefully, and even if you partly agree or not agree at all, please fill in this form and provide your feedback on what's proposed.
Note: this letter was not created by the staff of this channel. We believe this is a great chance for all Agents to show Niantic if the direction they've taken is a good one or not, and ask you to read it and give your feedback.

Part of the Lore behind Myriad Anomalies was unveiled with yesterday's decoding effort on the mysterious Notification. Today, Niantic released a video explaining the full story right before the upcoming Events: all Niantic Project Researchers were killed systematically by an Organization of unknown power. Now, they've been given a second chance to defeat Nemesis.

During the Warsaw NL1331X event of today, Redsolocup answered to some questions, here is what he said:
• Niantic is aware of all the issues in the letter that was posted in @IUENG this morning, amongst other things
• Niantic is working to organise future European Mission Days, but the European team is small, Pokémon Go events and Harry Potter also need to happen. Dominik supports all the products, and they are currently hiring to increase it
• Andrew had way more users in his Telegram channel than previously expected
• There is the idea to add the physical anomaly swag in the online Ingress Store, if it cannot be delivered to Anomaly sites in time
Thanks to @M1chaeI for the report!
