How do I know which tier I fall under? I did 670 reviews. For my very first Wayfarer challenge ?

First time Wayfarer Challenge participant and I did around 622 or so reviews. Thank you to the kind person who recommended turning on Translate option in Chrome. That technique alone saved me hours of effort. I was copy and pasting German, Portuguese, and Japanese text into Google Translate in another tab before that like a dolt.

My rating went down from Great to Good, which Iā€™m hoping reverts once agreements roll in.

I kinda felt like I was going on mini-vacations to tour all the places that were submitted. Some were very interesting. Others, not so muchā€¦

You are individual tier 3:

Hi! I reached top 4 and my rating didnā€™t drop from Great in any moment. Also, I didnā€™t experience any cooldown and I maintained my agreement percentage at +72%, just if you are curious ^^

It was great throughout the entire challenge

I had DeepL translator open in one tab while reviewing in another. Using a plugin the text gets sent to the translator in just a second.

Well, that certainly helped with edit backlog. I went from like 80+ edits in queue / voting down to just 27, and most got approved too! A few rejects that IMO make no sense but, still pretty helpful for the most part.

Now just hoping the 110 reviews I did end up counting enough to get the tier 1 rewards.

Itā€™s great we clear so much but also understandable that there will be some mistakes in this situation. Many people reviewing in languages and cultures they are less knowledgeable about. Itā€™s time to appeal or resubmit the ones that you think were important.

Could I just ask - how do you calculate your agreement percentage?
One can get the weekly/monthly OPR agreements from Ingress, but what do you use as the denominator?

56

I use Nomination Stats pluggin. You can find it at https://wayfarer.tools/

I tried to take part, think i got 30 done, but the system kept erroring out, aski g me to reload, i swear i sat for 5 minutes reloading at one point, sk i just had to give up

My take aways from this are several, but I think itā€™s best to put only one item in a reply because Iā€™m not smart enough to figure out what people are talking about sometimes. First one is that I wish there would be a place for supporting picture for location edits. Most of the location edits I saw I was completely unable to judge. I looked on streetview and satellite view usually, unless they were indoor ones.

The blunder is they removed redeeming from Android as well. I guess so people can view the store online which circumvents losing 30% from Google and Apple.

I think the initial total participants number was astounding. Imagine each person only doing a few and we would have hit the highest tier. However, many comments online were about people accidentally being in the challenge once they received reviews in different languages. If only there was a translation button within the review process, more people might have taken part in this challenge even to do a few just to see how it was.

Only 1/3 managed to review more than 50 Wayspots to receive rewards.
Nice to see that there are more than 30k Wayfinder worldwide using Wayfarer.

Yes we do! I got the best E-mail bomb ever thanks to this challenge. Got over 300 emails from Niantic during the USA days!

The Wayfarer tools, isnā€™t that considered as third party software which is prohibited according to TOS (and could potentially lead to a ban?

64

No. They are pluggins developed by an Ambassador and Niantic have knowledge of them and didnā€™t say anything. If they were prohibited they would have tell us, so there is no problem.

Hold on, so the top 10 reviewers did around 61k reviews of the total 101k?

The issues this time were definitely worse than last time, first day i managed 250 while i worked, but after that my available days and errors made it much harder. I got my 500+ but it was a grind at the end.

I hope next time its better, and i guess ill aim for 5k or so haha.

Well done top 10 and the community.
