Global Wayfarer Challenge - Discussion

We are spendig to much time look at a bouncing hot air balloon

Wish there was a way to choose oldest from wherever than just a specific location. Especially if next review could be displayed faster.

Are you telling me that I watched a bouncing balloon for this?

Sometimes you watch the balloon and it eventually brings up reviews sometimes it can’t find anything. Unfortunately we don’t know. I understand the frustration as I have this too.
At least that message makes it clear that it is time to go elsewhere.
Currently suggesting to a placement around Sudbury Canada.
If you have reached your target please leave for those tgat need it.

I have changed many locations, such as Beijing, Guangzhou, Xi’an, Chongqing and Taichung in China; Tokyo and Nagoya in Japan; South Korea and the Philippines; Paris in France and Manchester in the UK in Europe; as well as the southwestern part and the eastern coast of Australia.

Without exception, at all these locations, there were fewer than three POIs pending review, and then they would all enter the reviewed-completed status.

我更换了许多地点,例如中国的北京市、广州市、西安市、重庆市、台中市;日本的东京市、名古屋市;;韩国、菲律宾;欧洲的巴黎市、曼彻斯特市;澳大利亚的的西南部和东海岸。
更换这些地点无一例外都是出现少于3个的待审核POI,然后又会进入审核完成状态。

Well I’m missing 200+ reviews to reach the OPR goal

Non-review pages load slowly as well, suggesting that high server demand, apart from the review item being sold out, is a contributing factor. Shouldn’t we extend the schedule if this issue cannot be resolved?

Does anyone have submission after this global challenge approved? All my submission prior to 16 april has been approved. But i try to submit on 20th. Just wondering if it will jump into queue faster or no.

there was a report on WDD (the Wayfarer Discussion Discord) of one going into voting about an hour ago around 25 hours after being submitted, so is possible

Nothing has been authorised for me yet or is in the process of being approved. Maybe it’s also because nobody in my small town uses wayfarer.

@NianticThibs With the new separate system, will the OPR medal continue ? Because the event is ending and there won’t be enough points for me to reach 10,000 for the black medal.

Would you give a general area? Here’re some people looking for reviews :woman_shrugging:t2:

Very happy to. But it is in German. There are many good translation options. The general area is the district of Schaumburg and is located in Germany.
(I deliberately only mention the general district here so that others can also benefit from it). Thank you and everyone who supports this.

I’ve been experiencing timeouts of +2min when trying to review a portal, sometimes i get this json response:

{
    "result": null,
    "message": null,
    "code": "EXHAUSTED",
    "errorsWithIcon": {
        "messagesKeys": [
            "api.review.get.exhausted5.part1",
            "api.review.get.exhausted5.part2"
        ],
        "icon": "/img/map-outlined-24px.svg"
    },
    "fieldErrors": null,
    "errorDetails": null,
    "version": "release-wayfarer-web-5-28-0-967e4df7-Apr-15-14-37",
    "captcha": false
}

the code is exhausted, everyone go to sleep

Thanks. Are the lags and loading times website related or is it the location i choose?

Idk. We all have these problems and for me it’s an indicator to change again. When there’s a good amount of reviews it goes “fast”.
