Upgrades

Given that every and each one of the wayspots previously being voted was sent back to queue, does that basically means that EVERY upgrade that was used for the wayspots is lost? If so a lot of people need those upgrades refunded… especially because most of them were given after the GLOBAL challenge. I find it extremely unfair given that I had more than 15 wayspots in voting for months just for all my progress along with 9+ upgrades to be wiped clean.

Are you saying that you had 9 things upgraded without a decision when the system changed?
I was under the impression that what was upgraded before the update was still upgraded after it. Can you check the status of your submissions?
It’s still written upgrade on all of the nomination, but the order of them returning to voting is random not related to the upgraded status. Before am upgrade meant that it goes into voting regardless of the limit per big square (limit that was 6). Now the only ones in voting are the ones last entering the vote and do not corroborate with the region their in. I had 19 stops in voting at the moment I have 5, and it’s been 5 for a couple of day which is extremely unfair given that the ones sitting in que at the moment were “in voting” for more than 60 days.
Can you please screenshot your nominations? If they are upgraded, they should bounce into voting soon. Remember, even an upgrade nomination may sit in queue for 24 hours to a week after you originally nominated it.
They were being voted before the change of voting system. 19 different waypots being “in voting” ranging from 9 day to 60+ days, 9 of them being upgraded. Sent back to que. With all do respect a lot of the times the responses ignore the post and just quote unrelated manners.
Yikes! Yeah, this stinks.
This is awful. @NianticAaron or @NianticTintino-ING please fix this. It appears the upgrade has been canceled by the return to queue. I know you can give a push to old noms that are stuck, so at least push these.
This is so different from my experience with upgrades. Where I live, if the nomination is a week old, an upgrade gets a decision in a few hours.
Or pull them into internal review to get these a decision ASAP
That is a lot of upgrades. I hope this gets addressed and not ignored.
At least they are still upgraded but absolutly not good at all
Update…. nothing changed.
It happened to my other friends also. All the upgrades from them event were wasted - around 20 upgrades we used together to fill up our community. We won’t be voting anything anymore. Biggest duck you possible… invest over 20-30 hours in the global event just for all our upgrades to be wasted. It was already tidious to implement stops before this absolute trash update. It has absolutely zero perks, solves absolutely nothing and just messes up everything. Since June I got approved 25 new wayspots, I won’t be adding any more.
That's horrendous. Upgrades are such a valuable currency towards enacting positive change on the in-game map. They're extremely valuable for communities, and if you have a community trying their best to get Wayspots on the map and unable to it really sucks the life out of the process.
How do you do that?
I have the same situation here.
Regards!
oh there is no way to force this to happen. i was offering a suggestion for something niantic could do to fix this.
