I haven't gotten my upgrades yet, and I'm seeing reports of some people getting them and some people getting them yet.
It's probably a slow roll-out. I reviewed many Russian wayspots so I doubt it's because I wasn't active enough (I saw rumours about people speculating this on TSR)
I got them, but only one has been applied despite me having 10 nominations available for my 10 upgrades. Hopefully this resolves itself soon.
I got mine sometimes before 9:15 EST. :)
This is actually working out well for me so far. I have been able to choose 3 of my upgrades so far instead of having 9 out of the 10 applied at random. I'll have to go to bed soon, though!
The others will likely follow the same process as regular stored upgrades and be applied over a period of time.
Ingress emails are now rolling out.
I've gotten 2 applied so far
That's fantastic news! I picked a 'next' to be sure i could choose one upgrade myself. Now i was able to pick a second one myself, hopeful for the other ones :)
This happened for me on both PoGo and Ingress Wayfarer account. If it really applies afterwards at some time, this is great!
The only downside is you never know when this will happen, or is there some rule for it i am not aware of?
3-4 hours between each automatic upgrade.
I checked in the morning some time between 8:00 am and 9:00 am local time. Now it is after 2:00 pm and still no change, so the 3 to 4 hours passed already without anything happening...
I participate in the challenge and didnt get the rewards. Some of my friends did get them. Could u solve this @NianticAaron @NianticAaron @NianticAtlas @NianticAustin-ING @NianticBrian-ING I spent a lot of time reviewing to get the rewards specially the linked to wayfarer. THX
yes that is what i observed, too. I am in Germany and did check at 7:00 am. and there was one i could apply. there was no automatic upgrade of the other 9 till 3:30 pm and i cannot apply any of the 9 upgrades i have now.
I'm sure it's great if you have more than 10 nominations and want to pick which to upgrade, and I'm happy that's working out for you all :) When I have 10 nominations and 10 upgrades though, it seems a bit pointless to have to wait, as no matter which order they get applied in, each nomination will receive an upgrade.
Currently I've had 2 applied, with one of my nominations being stuck as "upgrade next" for the past 10 hours or so. This is in contrast to the 5 upgrades I got from the India Challenge, where all 5 were applied to nominations in very quick succession.
The great news: 10 upgrades.
The not so great news: I can't use them. I have 3 nominations upgraded and they are still are "in queue". And my one upgrade is stuck, despite the availability.
Those of you that had some Upgrades applied, were they applied to submissions that were stuck In Queue or did it seem random?
I got two of my ten applied to only submissions that were In Queue and they don't seem to be applying automatically to my submissions that are In Voting.
If they changed the rules so that it doesn't apply automatically to submissions that are In Voting this is epic! I had 12 submissions In Voting that'll be dispositioned any day now so I desperately did not want an upgrade wasted on them.
My city is split down the middle where on the west side submissions take a year to get dispositioned, and on the east side they take a month. All of my submissions of late have been on the east side so an upgrade on them would be pointless. I'm going to show the west side some love and try to get my Upgrades on those submissions before anything changes.
Edit: Never mind, it just upgraded one In Voting randomly. I gotta go out and submit some things quick. :(
I didn't receive the 10 upgrades yet, still waiting for them. But the players who already received the upgrades, there the Upgrades didn't apply automatically. You can choose yourself what to upgrade next, one after another - at least right now that's how it works.
I feel like the upgrades these two or three days don't like the usual upgrades. When I apply the upgrade to an "in voting" nomination, it always gets accepted in less than two days. Right now, my "in voting" upgraded nomination has been stuck in "in voting" for three days.
Allowing to apply the 10 upgrades at once would surely crash/slow the system tremendously
It is already slowed down tremendously.
Just more upgrades than usual and less reviews than usual (because of more upgrades than usual) makes the review process very very slow.
Yes, and this is with them being spaced out... imagine all dropping at once
