Why declare a promotion and then cancel it? Wouldn't it be easier not to tease the community? It would be better if there was silence from you than this :(
Y'all claiming the event was cancelled when they only removed the medal. The bonus still there, just tell you wanted a free medal without working at all taking into account the current situation.
All of which can be played from home ir stating locally within a mile of home, the events ingress was gling to do would have encouraged leaving homes and going further afield.
They removed not only the medal but also individual and global challenges. The whole event for me was in competition and challenges, with the reward being individual badges for your individual achievements - just like old times. Now there's only bonuses which are left. But! Considering we have had bonuses for more than half a year already, that's nothing new, I don't need them. I need competition. So yeah the event which I had anticipated was cancelled for me.
P.S. they could simply make the lowest tier worth 3-15 points. There's no way you wouldn't be able to capture ONE portal to unlock it even being in lockdown. Oh, what, there are whole 3.5 persons who have all medals maxed out and aren't responsible enough to skip this one or make only lowest tier? Ok let's cancel the event for everyone then. That is so bs.
at anomaly time, NOT all agents participate, but ALL want that anomaly badge, and anomalies are for all to participate.
If is not competition anymore, list the badge in store and monetize it! lets see how many will buy it (and put the price high for those with "small fortunes")
Niantic should really learn to do research before making the announcements. It's not the first time they release news about events and change after a mob of whiners complain or at least had to explain It all over again.
Literally people have been begging Niantic for an event for months now. "We got what we wanted" when they granted us a viable individual event. We didn't get what we wanted, when they cancelled their teased gift.
Not making the event in the first place would have had less of a toxic effect.
Once again Niantic makes absolutely no damn sense. If covid is such an issue that we need to cancel events they should follow through on the Pokemon go side.
They should have cancelled it rather pretend we have an event and trying to call it "compromise". And as far as the usual "but covid restrictions" your disobedience of the law is no one elses responsibility.

What are you confused about? They’ve made it clear as mud... Would love to know an actual cut-off time, especially since this seems a bit earlier than years past, if it’s on the 17th...
”Medal distribution will take place some time after Phase 1 ends on Tuesday, November 17th”
Think outside the box. Maybe Niantic realize that their next medal gonna be the ugly one like before... And dont have a time to fix it, they just simply remove it and keeping the bonus as well.
Year 8 medal will be awarded to all Agents who’ve earned more than 0 AP since the Year 7 medal was distributed. Medal distribution will take place some time after Phase 1 ends on Tuesday, November 17th and follows the same medal tiers as Year 7: Levels 3/9/13/15/16.
I'll explain for those who haven't seen how Anniversary medals work normally...
If you want the Platinum medal for example, you have to reach L15 by a certain date & time. If you don't get the required level by that cut off date & time you end up getting the previous tier. If you level up after the cut off, you get the previous tier. There's a time gap between when they check the levels and when they push the badge.
Although I'm sad that the competitive components have been canceled, this gives me an incentive to look into the recon badge and picture submissions. Phase 1 stacks nicely with an operation I've been planning.

Maybe I don't understand something, but if quarantine is tightened in your country and there is a danger of going out, who is forcing you to do it?
It turns out that the whiners, who are not the fact that they will participate in the event, canceled it for thousands of players around the world.
PoGo!!! You really - 🙈🙈🙈. You understand, what in PoGo events beggin now and all time.
How shameful, complaining about not getting a badge rather than fighting for your faction.
Hourly raids every Wednesday 👍️
2 community days in December 👍️
Tasks for the R team, because of which you have to actively walk 👍️
Ingress medal for the event, the first time in the entire quarantine period 🖕
p.s Keep killing the game.

When is the anniversary medal level cut off date?

Yup, Recursion will get you L16 regardless of how far you've climbed back up

They still encouraging you to go out with potential quad AP.
Stupid decision.
It was better to keep the medal
happy now?
still an alternative event involving drones could be made and award a badge until other real events could work for most worldwide.
Like many, this event was my return to the game after months of lockdown due to the pandemic, the news is disappointing.
Thank you crybabies from the community! They did it
