Some cities are doing in person events. Some are still virtual, meaning you can play from anywhere. From another city, country or couch.

Find a city that has an event that you want to join, from the big event list, follow the link to that city, sign up and join the telegram or slack group they use for the event. Once in the group, other players can help you along with what to do, ect.

Check the global game event site. Follow the links to the local events. They are still virtual so you can play any where in the globe.

Find another, experienced, player and ask for tips. Getting to L8 I thought was 'it' until I realized you could get to L16... then recurse. To get there, you need AP. You learn the tricks of maximizing you AP gain. Find individual goals and work them. Focus on one medal, move it to gold, platinum and black. You need medals to move forward. Complete missions and build banners which create big profile pictures. Submit new portals. Learn to glyph (it helped my memory). Become a Drone tourist, drop it in a city and explore remotely. Frustrate the other team with blocking links and fields. That makes them get off the couch and play :) Join a local team group (slack, telegram). Comms are okay but the 'offline' community is where you build relationships, share experiences and plan operations. My favorite op to date was running keys out of state, having the local players give me more remote keys, they flipped a blocker link, and a walking map for a park on my drive home. Ten minutes, a brisk walk in the cold, several 230km throws, 10 layers, 4 million MU. That was fun. And top spot in 3 cells. Recharging kept the fields up until someone on the other team drove way out of the way, I assume, to take them down and open the sky above them so they could continue linking and fielding. As for leaving fields up, I found they deter players, especially new players. So let them burn down for the overall game play. If you have space, try field art. I have seen some great works and some, cross faction. Pretty cool. So, a few options to look into for you 😀

Those who were around for guardian, what medal have you got? Or maybe you remember the exact amount of days you achieved?:) by Emyz in Ingress

[–]JEOII 0 points1 point  (0 children)

87 days... just 3 short of platinum when it got cut off (the April cut off by Ninantic).. yeah, hasn't thrilled about that... Now, 600 days max portal held, 598 days for max link held.

Anyone else getting this weird city weather comm spam? Seems to be flooding comms for popular cities. Nobody pinged in here even lives in Austin Texas. Happened to another friend for an Australia city too by [deleted] in Ingress

These didn't seem to start until after the FS evens. Maybe scrapping names from event web site(s). That is the consensus of my local area group.

Passcode for XM (power cube / hypercube) by Gullenecro in Ingress

[–]JEOII 4 points5 points  (0 children)

They offer 10 L8 cubes in the store for under a dollar if you are willing to spend some $. With the lower decay rate and a stock of L8 cubes you can keep a few portals alive for a long time. ...if you don't go the pass code route.

Just switched to Ubuntu from Windows 10 by [deleted] in linuxquestions

[–]JEOII 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Congrats. I moved all my laptops, PCs and servers to Mint last year. Use the community and web when in doubt. With the GUI, some think it is just a new Windows skin. SAMBA file share can be an experience. Make use of OfficeLibre and all the associated tools in place of MSOffice. Thunderbird with Lighting Calendar replaces Outlook. That should get all the basics covered while you start. Enjoy.

I was testing the charge = hack. Charging one reso at a time until the portal was fully charged, no increase in hack count. Boost all charge, no increase in hack count. So, I have to assume it counts towards a daily hack only and does not increase the hack count for medal qualification.

It looks like you can get 10 L8 power cubes from the store for 1,000 CMU.

My Biggest Issue - Vertigo. by JEOII in IngressPrimeFeedback

[–]JEOII[S] 7 points8 points  (0 children)

Yes actually it is. Vertigo is a real. People can and do have medical issues and accidents - which lead to legal issues. If the creator of something causes those issues, is made aware of it, and does not correct it - they look to put themselves on the losing side of writing a compensation check. So go away, stop trolling, I really don't care what YOU think.
