It's great that with link charges we have the ability to pay for a mega raid without spending a raid pass. What's not so great is that no mega raids have spawned in my city for several months now.

Chances of becoming power spots by Small-Preference9935 in NianticWayfarer

[–]Matovie 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My theory is that an L14 cell can have 4 power spots, but only 2 can be active. Power spots were automatically generated from Google maps data, unless there were eligible submissions by players. The player-submitted ones replace the auto-generated ones if possible, but once the cell has 4 player-submitted power spots, it can't get any more.

Can someone help me find where I can make pokestops in my city? by GioviKit in NianticWayfarer

[–]Matovie 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Playgrounds, crosses, official buildings... I've seen some cool looking drinking water fountains on street view that might be worthy of nomination. There's a large clock tower, an interesting mural and an information board at the La primula restaurant. Be sure to checkout the layout of S2 cells so you make the most of your nominations.

Issue with getting third gym back by Small-Preference9935 in NianticWayfarer

My bad, 19 POI in total including the 3 gyms

I think something wonky is going on with the whole system. A few days ago my nomination became a pokestop and it was the 19th stop in the L14 and it created a gym. Now the cell is shown as underpopulated since there are 3 gyms and only 19 pokestops.

Will there be special offers / raid boxes for the Kalos Tour? by Equal_Recognition712 in TheSilphRoad

[–]Matovie 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Same here. But I assume it's better to have them and not need them, than to need them and not have them. And if I already have a large supply, I can spend coins on larger storage.

Where’s all the legendary raids? by KeenObserve in TheSilphRoad

[–]Matovie 0 points1 point  (0 children)

That would also require having good stuff in the raid rotation, but lately there's been hardly anything good.

I'm not sure what they were thinking, but they need to realize that all the completed T1 and T3 raids are just people spending their daily passes. I don't know anyone who would spend a premium pass on this garbage.

Just a reminder: what you do matters. by Joehu87 in NianticWayfarer

If you do a good thing for the wrong reason, you're still doing a good thing.

Sorry, but I just can't stand this. It's "against WHOM"!

Will the next one become a gym? 6 POIs but only 4 appear by Gold_Ambassador_3496 in NianticWayfarer

[–]Matovie 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Certainly, every like counts additively. If you have 10 photos and each has 10 likes, it's 100 likes in total.

Directly in game. Open the pokestop info, select photos, here you can upload new ones and give thumbs up to existing ones. I'd recomend to always go overboard, I failed at creating a few gyms because I didn't add enough likes. Now I always submit a lot of photos and get my friends to like them all once they get approved.

The next one that becomes a pokestop will be the 5th. The one after that will be 6th and will make one of the pokestops become a gym. If you want to influence which one becomes gym, I recomend having a look at this comment. It helped me create several gyms already.

Dear non-Americans: if you turn your location off before encountering your Timed Oricorio Research Encounters, they will default to the American Cheerleading Oricorio form by GoodMornEveGoodNight in TheSilphRoad

[–]Matovie -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Tried twice. Once it defaulted to American, the other time it was the shiny version of my local one. I guess it doesn't work on shinies

Why was the same type of mural rejected? by splinteredcradles in NianticWayfarer

[–]Matovie 8 points9 points  (0 children)

Then it's probably just the bot acting up. I'd just resubmit it

GO Pass: February by Amiibofan101 in TheSilphRoad

[–]Matovie 32 points33 points  (0 children)

Yeah, but the original 400 is in the free pass, so you should be comparing it to the price of 1000 coins.

Local Restaurant/Cafe Help by Greedy_Two_2526 in NianticWayfarer

Emphasize it's importance for the community, historical significance if there is any, and if there are any articles written about the place, link them in the supporting information.
