Isnt this the time for a Wayfarer Review-Galore?
so, anyone at NIA prepared to push 2 buttons to give the reviewers more incentive now?
half the world is sitting at home with not much to do.
We would like to collect some ideas
- Reduce from 100 to 50 Reviews for an Upgrade till Easter
Generally, every Idea is welcome - let us work down that backlog and give us something in return. like the carrot on a stick for the donkey. otherwise theres netflix and disney+

Gotta agree. I like the we're getting bonus nominations coming up, but we're still cleaning up the mess of interests unnecessary duplicates - I think I voted on the same church steeple for the 5th time last night.
Even a simple announcement to encourage/remind people to review. I see reviewing as a fun mini vacation across the region!
I was thinking that due to the global coronavirus crisis and the forced government lock-downs of many countries, perhaps the next Nemesis challenge should be OPR related. Put it into the lore that Nemesis are trying to attack the portal network by corrupting OPR. Reviewers have to perform 2000 reviews for a gold equivalent badge.
You can also incorporate tessellation stuff into OPR, and have random Tessera appear that would need to be discovered (obviously it would need a higher appearance rate than standard portals so that the minority of people that actually follow Tessellation have a chance of seeing it).
I'm not sure how it might affect PoGo players, but if you can make it only appear for Ingress agents, that would be awesome.
Also due to the lockdowns, you could possibly tie in the sojourner streak with OPR for a few weeks until everything returns to normal. That way people can continue earning their 'hack' and there will be a huge increase in the number of portals reviewed.
Would love to hear your thoughts @NianticBrian
Loving this post, great idea <3
@NianticCasey I hope you read this thread and the other suggestions across this forum and share them with the Wayfarer team to come to with some ideas. Bonus points if you can adjust suggest alternatives for Sojourner or maybe a Recharger event out of this, but especially Wayfarer review encouragement.
Allowing lower levels to review (maybe less vote weight), more cary over Upgrades than 10, change from 100 agreements for an upgrade to 75 or 50, additional bonus locations, or more frequent bonus location changes.
I would love to see the level lowered to 10 to review for awhile. I live in a smaller community that needs more portals and seems to have next to no active players. I grinded 9 months to make level 10 but 12 just seems to far to go.
Agree. I have left a few ideas here: https://community.ingress.com/en/discussion/comment/73033/#Comment_73033
In general:
I don't think Niantic will listen to our suggestions unfortunately regarding give reviewing incentive and not submitting.
Well their Game their Rules.

This is still my preference, though with a few tweaks included in the comments in the thread.
Simple way to get nominations reviewed by all platforms put a new badge in pogo that will give the. Incentive to review. An ingress review event will no the same with with a badge.
Ingress badges incentivise bad reviewing, of which there is already too much. By all means add a PoGO badge if it'll encourage people to review.
There's no badge for submission and yet we have a lot of bad proposals. How do you explain that?
If there was a badge there would be more bad submissions.
The reward for more submissions, in theory, is getting more in-game objects to interact with. People submitting poor POIs probably don't know the guidelines but think they are going to get a new portal, stop, gym, inn, etc.
Buckle up for a wave of bad nomination's event has started.

@NianticCasey Please consider these ideas while
players are stuck home this would help eliminate a backlog of Waypoint nominations which benefits everyone.
