That's A Wrap!

That is when you put on Paw Patrol and review with kids :rofl:
My kids are both teens now so they ignore me and I therefore have more review time. I was hoping for 1500 but due to errors, lag, and general life demands I was just shy of that around 1393 or something.

I forgot all about some photo edits I did while in Mexico in December. They were resolved during the challenge when we soared that way. Although, after reviewing again more often than I did years ago, I know they should not have been approved as they had people in the background, but they were anyways.

Quite apart from the full nominations, you dont need 15 or 30 seconds to say ā€œall pictures meet critieraā€. And considering this was an edit challenge, a lot of the reviews were pictures, or locations ie which of these dots that are practically in the same place is correct? Well, both of them, so that’s about 3 seconds to click one and move on.

The actual nominations might take a little longer but there were a lot of edits that are very fast.

Also agree, for some things they are either obviously acceptable or obviously rejections. It’s the in between that might need more time, but we are taking about averages so for anything less there is then some more time for something that needs more thought

I don’t need 30 seconds to approve a playground on a housing estate that just got built for example. Nor do I need 30 seconds to reject an ugly grafitti scribble

Hi
I’m not complete with that.
The ā€œgraffiti scribbleā€ f.e. for me comes under accuracy. Before that I check for dups, pot. abuse (wrong location), safety.
Maybe I’m too picky, but in the challenge I only achieved 534 and it took looong and was hard for me.
30 sec? Only for photo edits.
Yours

If its just a vandalism ie not art then its straight away reject for me, I dont need to read what they made up about it being important (often these are low effort submissions anyway- only a few words to read in each box)

If its an amazing cool mural I also dont need to read the supporting info because I dont need any convincing.

Supporting info for me is really important for those cases where the submitter is needing to convince me to accept something that is less obvious. I always like to give the benefit of the doubt so I don’t usually reject without reading everything, but for vandalism graffiti I would make an exception

Sorry, I meant ā€œpermanancyā€.
Even one process step more :hugs:

I didn’t say that I don’t pre-judge with the first photo, but I do all steps within.

Ok, a graffiti scribble nominator will calculate the risk of rejection, but I hope that my ā€œfull reviewā€ give the chance to response something useful (not 1:1, but they can make something out of this) or even be food for the robot brain.

Not more not less

ah, the pictures… I open each one in a separate link to look for people, license plates, and the reflection of the submitter in windows… but that’s just me. Well taken that edits should be faster, though.

Well I’m a boomerass 60-something white man and I think that grafitti scribbles are … NOTHING MORE OR LESS THAN CULTURE THAT I DON’T UNDERSTAND. For this reason if there’s any chance of permanence and other factors are good I always approve.

Seeing as I’m on a roll of being a dim boomer, how do I claim or otherwise get my in-game rewards for this escapade?

As I am a not so dim boomer :roll_eyes: :rofl: I read the top entry of this topic when it says there is effectively a 2 week window when the rewards are issued. They usually come in batches, so don’t panic if you are not in the first batch…and given past experience check the spam folder and also keep checking any emails linked to Niantic games.

Thanks, I did read the first post, but I couldn’t figure out how I would get the rewards from that… You’re saying they will come in an email? Thanks for that! In the post it just says ā€œgo outā€

Game rewards for previous challenges have come in the form of email codes to redeem in the games you are eligible for, yes!

(the Ingress medal and upgrades are different)

The upgrades just appear on your profile …so if you want to check take a screen shot so you can see that they have been added.
The email previously gave your overall rank and then codes for you to use to redeem the items.
Last time I recall there was not a huge time limit on the codes - It was somewhere around 5 or 6 weeks if I recall correctly. So you don’t have to use them instantly but don’t hang around. Its a point that we need to get a clear answer on.

Would that it was quite so easy. Hes not 3 yet, and while sometimes we do lazy mode and put him in front of tv, a 4 day weekend when daycare is closed means finding activities for him, by the end of each night we are tired and its not reviewing time for me haha

I still reached highest personal tier so another +1 for my medal, and lots more new wayspots and edits!

For any one that did a bazillion reviews, has the ā€˜must spend 15-30 seconds at each edit/nomination to avoid the ban’ been removed??

For edits/photos, most pf the time it does NOT take even 15 seconds to know which one is correct, or if there’s a bad photo submission.

thank you and @Xenopus for info, I’ll keep an eye on my email.

So based on these totals, around a third of all reviewers did enough reviews (50) to get the community rewards (10,463 out of 33,477).

Of those 10,463 Community Reward Recipients:
2685 reached tier 1 but not 2.
1088 passed tier 1, reached tier 2, did not reach tier 3.
3765 flew by tiers 1 and 2, and attained tier 3.

So of the 10,463 who did 50 and got the community awards,
7538 (72%) went on to do 100,
4853 (46%) did 250, and
3765 (36%) did 500 or more.

That’s higher than I thought it would be.
