Wayfarer Badge in GO isn’t updating

Hello all.

So iv just noticed my badge in Pokemon GO isn’t updated, iv reviewed around 500 POIs in the last 3 days and my badge hasn’t gone up once. My friends who also review say their badge has been going up live. Any ideas?

Hello @mravalanche

This may not be a bug. You need to be at a rating of Good or Great on your Wayfarer agreements profile to have agreements count towards the badge in Pokemon Go.

It sounds like you have done quite a few reviews over the last few days. It can take time for the community to finish reviewing a submission, so decisions (agreements/disagreements) can take awhile to come in. I’d recommend slowing down for a bit so the decisions catch up.

You need to ensure that you have the same review with consensus, otherwise your rating will drop and you wont get any agreement. In addition it might take few weeks before consensus is reached and you get agreement

Hello,
That’s the case for me. My agreement number in wayfarer is increasing, then community agreed with my votes, when my badge is not.

And your Wayfinder rating is Great or Good?Because you can still have agreements come in even if you are Fair or Poor. But the badge will not increase if you are Fair or Poor. That is how it is intended to work.

But if you are Great or Good and agreements should help increase your badge number. If that is not happening then something may be wrong.

@sgantzer68 I have added your report for internal review.

I’m « great ». I’m working to get the onyx medal since a while, I moved only one time to « good » and that’s the first time I’m not seeing the badge value increasing when the percentage is increasing. But I was not aware that if you’re not good or great and I’m sure that many people don’t know. Many thanks for this information. Let’s see how the issue will be solved and if I won’t loose previous evaluations.

Are you talking about a badge in Ingress or Pokemon Go? There is no Onyx in Pokemon Go. Ingress is now completely separate from Wayfarer. IDK how the Ingress medal works now.

Just so you know, reviewing on Wayfarer will no longer go towards Ingress badges. Niantic proper kept Ingress when they sold off Wayfarer and Pokemon Go to Scopely.

Nominations (and future reviews) will be done through Ingress and Recon will not reflect here or in Pokemon GO and vice versa.

Thanks for the response, my issue is sorted , it was because my rating was too low, iv raised it and now its updating, thanks a lot

For anybody needing to increase their rating I was told the following when my rating was low and it worked quickly and I have been on “Great” ever since.

Make sure you do not Accept or Reject straight away even if it is obvious. Clicking “Satellite” and / or using the Street View option shows that you are not just speed clicking.

Hope this helps.
