Hello Wayfinders,
Thank you for your reports regarding the missing confirmation emails following Wayspot submissions. Our team has gathered these details and investigating the issue. Please feel free to share any additional reports here for the team to look into.
We appreciate your patience!
Elaborating with additional info from Ambassadors:
Recommendation for users:
I didn’t know there was an issue and submitted mine 3-4 times after waiting a reasonable amount of time, once was after 24 hrs with no notification, because it didn’t seem to be working. Am I at risk of being banned for duplicate submissions? I didn’t have an email confirmation and there was no indication that the submission was actually active.
We are awaiting clarification from the team about the issue, so please be patient.
Since this is a logged failure there should be no issues.
Best case is that the team retrieve all of those submitted during this window, and that they appear in everyone’s contributions. You can then hold/withdraw as necessary.
Hello Wayfinders,
We are aware of an issue where nominations submitted over the last few days are not appearing in the Contribution Management page and are not generating confirmation emails.
Our team is actively investigating the cause and working on a fix. Your recent contributions are important to us, and we appreciate your patience while we get this sorted out.
We will provide an update here as soon as we have more information!
Best,
About 20 minutes ago, I got emails / Wayfarer appearances for two of the nine subs I made during the blackout.
Progress!
Once nomination is finally appearing, please give us enough time to edit. Many of us send contributions with just random letter when they’re too far from home.
One of my friend’s submissions was in voting already when it reappeared just now
One of my two went into voting an hour after appearing.
My miday saturday submissions have appeared just after 6 Monday. I was able to withdraw the two duplicates that were made thankfully!
Pretty sure all the ones I submitted a couple days ago have gone through now. Too bad I always put ‘temp’ for the description (to edit it later on the website where it’s easier) and now a couple of those have gone into voting before I could get a chance to put them on hold… 
@NianticAaron could you withdraw the one that is in voting so the other one can enter? That one actually has a description and stuff 
Thanks for fixing the issue with the missing nominations. Mine have appeared and was lucky enough to put them on hold in time.
Thanks for fixing it 
10 of my submissions has already gone into voting when they came through. And I usually Edit when I get back home. Is it possible to cancel them even though they are in voting? Because they will all be namned “hehe” or something.
And is it possible to “start them up again”? Or do I have to renominate them? @NianticAaron
Thanks anyway for cancelling them <3
Thank you! @NianticAaron
Yes, you will need to re-nominate them. There is no way to send them back. We regret the inconvenience.
No worries, you’ve done what you can. Thanks for the fast work and replies <3
