Hey! I was just wondering why the POI doesnt show up in the game ( i submitted it via pokemon go).
There are no other POIs that could be the reason for why it didnt show up.
something similiar happened 1week ago in the same s14 cell (though i think i put it actually in a already occupied s17 cells).
I wish we could tell you with certainty but we can’t.
My educated guess on what has happened would be, though, that this marker is actually located at the separation between Forsthausstrasse and Lohrhaupter Weg, and was moved by reviewers to what would be its correct location. Is the other cell also taken?
Ingress has had its last sync ever with the split from Scopely, so you won’t see any more contributions show up on that iitc map of portals any more.
Pokemon Go syncs once a day over a rolling period. If you missed the cut off for today’s sync, you might make tomorrow’s. Check again in about 20 hours from now.
You can immediately see where the Wayspot went live from the nomination map screen with the toggle on if you just want to check that it hasn’t been moved in voting. You have to be standing right there for it to work. It won’t work remotely. It will show as a ! you can tap before it syncs in to the game.
Go to the location, then start a nomination. Be sure this toggle button is switched on. You will see any Wayspots not used as Pokestops or gyms as exclamation points, like this:
You can find your Wayspot there and see where it is in this view. That should let you know if it has been moved.
(All Wayspots will show like this as soon as they are accepted. This does not mean that it will not show, just that it does not show. If it is eligible, then it can still sync in as a Pokestop or gym.)
Thank you! Sorry my english isnt the best - so to sum it up in my own words to know if i understood it correctly : i need to go there in person, try to submit a new POI and have this button on (show other stops in near area) - IF my recently added POI shows up there as a “!” it means it got accepted but for some reason isnt in the game. Correct?
And it also shows the potentially “new” position of the POI if it got moved during the voting phase.
Is that all correct? Then ill just head over there and check what it shows ingame.
just make sure you back out of the nomination instead of submitting it again.
fyi, you can use any language you are comfortable in on the forum and we can use the translate button if needed. i think @Xenopus is comfortable in about a dozen languages.
Ok got it! So my summary was correct though? So i know that for the future and thanks a lot! (my main language is german but i thought speaking english my get me a higher chance of an answer
It can and will happen to misplaced nominations, which appears to be the case of this one. I am not suggesting that you did it on purpose, but be careful as mispinning nominations for cell purposes can get you warned, especially since this one appears to have ended up on single-family private residential property territory.
It’s just a possible explanation - we don’t have a way to verify for you what actually happened, and I am only theorizing that the cell with the junction is also taken. The best way to verify yourself is to do what @cyndiepooh suggested on location.
And the reason it isn’t in the game yet could be that it hasn’t been added (synced) yet because they do that once a day. If it has been longer than 48 hours as mentioned in the email, it probably is not going to be added.
