Unfortunately it's not a mixed bag. Many recent posts have definitely proved that

it's just not working as expected, especially for anti-cheating reports. COMM reports are handled slightly better.

hahaha , the irony is that one of the acoounts is translated as "I Don't care" , only obscently

For questions, please contact @InvestigateXM, if you send it to the Glyph account, it'll get lost.

Agents, the Glyph the Planet event is well underway, and new glyph sequences which include the NL-1331 glyphs have been spotted! The Glyph Journal requests your assistance in collecting data on all available sequences during this event.

To participate, you need to glyph hack a portal, screenshot all glyphs during the result screen of the glyph hack and send the screenshot to @UncoverXM. It doesn't matter:

• If you didn't draw all glyphs correct
• If it doesn't contain the N - L - 1 - 3 glyphs or
• If you have already submitted the same sequence.

Screenshots where not all glyphs are visible are not counted*. As long as all glyphs are visible, everything is fair game. Please only submit screenshots you made yourself, starting now. Please don't submit screenshots you have made before the contest started.

*Exception: If Prime isn't displaying a glyph due to a bug, it will still be counted.

The contest starts now and runs until Friday, June 25th, 16:00 UTC (which is also the end date of the Glyph the Planet event).

After the contest is over we'll count all submitted screenshots. The top 3 agents who submitted the most sequences and the agent nearest to the average will be able to pick from the prize pool, with the 1st agent going first and the average last.

The prize pool consists of character badges for your scanner: 1 NL-2020, 1 ADA'19, 1 Misty Hannah'19 and 1 Stein Lighman'19.

Happy glyphing, everyone!

I'm no longer in the permafield business, so this no longer effects me personally. The arguments for and against can be found in any number of the matryoshka threads. But basically, control over the area, winning the cycle, not wanting the other faction to use your lanes to replicate your field from within. For field destroyers it takes away the strategy of leaving up outer layers to make it more difficult to rethrow.

Why do you think matryosha should have no limits? The best argument I've seen to allow it is so players can microfield areas so they can level up/get AP. I'm happy to support that. If that is the primary reason to allow it, why should link length be unlimited?

Really though, for Niantic, those arguments take a back seat to money. They will do what they feel will make them the most money.

why should link length be unlimited?

3 reasons:

1. if link length is limited, it could be hard to gain enough MU to win a cycle when you are under a huge field.
2. it would be harder to plan fields if you must be careful to respect the max. length.
3. to build higher-level homogeneous fields (HCF7 and above), you would probably encounter situations where you need to throw a long link inside-out.

I am not convinced that the gameplay would be less strategic if fielding under fields is allowed - the strategies would just change. None of the feared consequences actually happened during the Matryoshka event. In my experience, the old ways of creating multilayer fields are still the most efficient. I tried a couple of inside-out multis during Matryoshka and found myself running back and forth between the center and the outside.

Actually, I go out of the house more often since the drone was introduced, because the drone fills up my inventory, and I must to out to use the items.

@GoblinGranate I kind of feel like "support is not working" is too broad a statement to agree or disagree with.

I have had support shut spoofers RIGHT DOWN very quickly. I've also had them not do so. So, at best it's a mixed bag. I have no recent experience with support having to do with comm messages so I don't have enough data to have an informed opinion on that.

yes strange we have badge for mu created but not destroyed ? it could help motivation in those areas where permfields are up nonstop to destroy them if u can get a badge otherwise it tends to make the game static and boring since its too easy keep fields up....

The 5 minute cooldown was the most useless and unpleasant aspects of the game. I have spent more than enough time waiting around in freezing rain, midday heat and rush hour traffic.
