Yes rare candy is really not very special anymore. Rare XL candy is!

I forgot that Platinum is the highest medal available. Doesnât seem it comes up too much.
I think I am L46 and didnât really notice needing the medals for the lower levels as they were already ticked off versus Ingress where you have to grind some and decide which ones to aim for based on how you play.

A lot of us are expecting onyx medals for pogo nextâŚ
I am sure I will automatically have the âWayfarerâ one if they do =)

If we wanted to do photos, Ingress people still had to go to the location to take them during optimal weather and lighting. I do understand your point about title and description edits. But about half my edits were photos which i took after the challenge was announced.

I didnt have any optimal lighting at all. Not a chance I was improving any images other than by increasing resolution by way of new camera phone vs 7 year old images. I contributed a few pictures on 1 day where there was a break in the clouds for about an hour. Similarly I didnt go out specifically to do other edits, just did what was nearby when I was doing other things
Its November. I had fog, rain, and greyness, or darkness. It doesnt get light in the morning till maybe 7:30, and its dark by 4:30. In the summer its light before 5am and stays light till 10pm. Iâm not even that far north, people further up thereâs almost no light at all.

Yeah, i know thatâs rough. I assume thereâs no perfect time for everyone globally. Our summer will be winter for those below the equator. I guess it would have been better even just a month earlier?
Because summer here is unbearable. I wouldnât want to run this during the middle of our summer.

I have plenty of excusesâŚ

Yeah, September/early October would be better, days wouldnât be as short and a lot less murky grey weather! Or alternatively in spring.
Can understand not height of summer too. I hate the heat. But the pictures have a higher chance of looking nice!

The first one ended up as a featured image. No idea why to be honest.

Hye all,
Did you already get your rewards ? I didnât 
I also havenât got my rewards but Iâm 99% sure that I made at least 150 edits
Maybe I havenât gotten it yet because I play PoGO, Peridot and Ingress
Previously rewards have gone out in batches linked to the qualifying game. So it wouldnât be surprising if the same happened again.

Just thought Iâd post this, since I did get my rewards. The Edit Challenge rewards will expire on January 31, 2025, and this is noted in the email:
I know some ask about when the rewards expire, so just wanted to put it out there for those who may be wondering.

Easy to miss, but this was mentioned in the original post about the rewards.
Ive had my pogo rewards but not my ingress rewards, i assume they are doing a game by game basis? (To be clear, i use different login methods for ingress (google log in) and pokemon go (facebook login), this is for personal reasons)
Typically they do PoGo only rewards first, then Ingress only rewards second, and PoGo and Ingress combined rewards last. I donât know if any Ingress only players have received rewards yet, as Iâm a PoGo only player. Niantic also said all rewards would be sent out by November 29, so there is still time.
