@NianticTintino could we have a clarification on this please? Will nothing left in Wayfarer after end of challenge not show up in Ingress? It has to be re-submitted in the future?

I still have 17 submissions in the queue since the event started. Nothing has happened since then. In contrast, people in my area are shown that there are no waypoints to rate. How does this fit together?

Than 2 ticks for having the stress to get to 500?

I understand that it’s getting difficult, and as you said, in past Events we had double time to arrive to the same numbers. And for that is a good thing that you are lowering the reviews needed forch Tier,
But don’t understand why you are finishing the event early. There are reviewers that planned their time and responsabilities to arrive to 500 this night (AMER time) and are around 300ish now.
And for Ingress players, the reward that matters really is the one onTier 3

Hi @wamdueproject, thanks for confirming you’re able to edit your Home and Bonus location settings. Thanks for your feedback about your experience with the challenge. I’ll be sure to share that with the team.

There is apparently very little left to review. Extending the time isn’t going to change that.

A slap in the face to all reviewers. Prepare for hundreds of crappy reviews because of this change. Everyone will rush.

The end of this challenge does not determine that.

Pokemon players can still submit, and there are posts here that some people still have nominations in queue. It would be better to encourage a nomination blitz (a bonus) than to pull the rug out (beat with stick)

You are correct.

Will you announce a date when things submitted via Ingress will no longer appear in the game through Wayfarer at a later time?

Got some favorite stuff I’d love to be able to write and release before that time. Thanks for the quick answers, you’re doing great!

it’s very frustating getting the balloon and errors. but there are still things left to review (at least that was the case when the announce of the change of deadline was made) , And some of the reviewers that reached 400 would stop , leaving more opportunities to those who are in 300-350 that now have no time left. :frowning:

You should keep the challenge open until the previously-announced end time. Anyone who was planning to finish tonight and such no longer gets to try. You’re going to lose a lot of users who feel cheated.

Some other feedback: Going through certain areas showed rampant abuse. There’s the LDS editor spoofing location to rename and change the description for every LDS church to be the exact same thing. A ton of reviews in Athens were just someone adding a period to the description (sometimes already at 3 periods). There also isn’t a good way to report that someone is using a stolen photo. I got a ton of waystop nominations at Universal Studio’s new park, Epic Universe. Every single nomination and approved stop there was using a photo ripped from online sources.

So how things changed suddenly…because the Tier 3 is down to 400 for not 300 or 350 :clown_face:

After this event I feel wayfarer is a waste of time and there is a disregard for the free labor we provide. I will be waiting for the new OPR.

thanks for answering, and for giving suggestions of locations this past days (all Ambassadors) .thanks to that I reached 500 already. But a lot of reviewers I know not. This was supposed to be the night for reaching to the Tier 3 for lot of them, not going to sleep until reaching it :wink: , but at 18:10 here, people are still at work or getting home. I wish the deadline was not changed, or the announced made earlier, so people could plan appropiately
