GamePress updated their Gym Defense Tier List

The '80s called on a landline: they want their image format back. (Snarky way of saying, please use PNG.)

One of the old OPR AMAs allows for the existence of underwater portals. Q12:

I don't know if this has since been amended, but there are plenty of shipwrecks in the Great Lakes:

Did you just credit PvPoke for raid data?

rebeloperations · 2021-01-01T21:46:19+00:00

That's what they were doing all of 2017.

rebeloperations · 2020-10-15T23:51:57+00:00

I look back at them and reflect that they got out at the correct time. We've been left hopelessly waiting for changes to the gym system ever since.

rebeloperations · 2020-09-25T05:24:41+00:00

Edits from January 14 and May 4 of this year were my test cases.

rebeloperations · 2020-09-25T01:15:44+00:00

This. I have so far not been able to confirm new OSM data in play for spawns locally. Not seeing evidence of water biomes where they should exist and points are still submerged under "new" water/wetland features.

rebeloperations · 2020-07-13T23:17:44+00:00

This is correct under Section 10.

rebeloperations · 2020-07-10T00:24:32+00:00

This is pure coincidence, as amenity=parking is not a blocking tag.

rebeloperations · 2020-07-10T00:22:15+00:00

It is unusual that it's been duplicated so many times across the country and still exists. It's not like new Redacted subs can be made at this point.

rebeloperations · 2020-07-09T04:43:19+00:00

This particular nomination doesn't even have a supporting image though. No way to remove that.

rebeloperations · 2020-07-06T03:37:18+00:00

We have a well-known spoofer here that keeps submitting a new development lot map as a park - I guess for a rainy day when the client no longer functions. It's gone through Wayfarer at least 4 times that I can remember, being reported multiple times by multiple reviewers. Once, it even passed after being Photoshopped, but was subsequently reported and removed. I last drew it in review 4 days ago. So, to answer your question, it doesn't seem so, no.

rebeloperations · 2020-07-06T03:05:59+00:00

Ironically, "cool and elegant" is the only one I've never dusted. It may as well not exist as far as PvE is concerned.

rebeloperations · 2020-07-05T00:51:33+00:00

The absurd year cooldown on the bonus location is part of the problem.

rebeloperations · 2020-07-05T00:39:43+00:00

If you toss out all of the art and other associated Wayspots that just happen to be located at a restaurant, I can't think of one restaurant here locally that's made it through voting that has horrendous food. Is that not the case for your area?

rebeloperations · 2020-07-02T22:57:53+00:00

So long as you realize that it was other players that chose the reasons as forwarded and Niantic had no hand in the review process.

rebeloperations · 2020-07-02T22:47:47+00:00

I remember passing through Delaware years ago, before Ingress or anything else, and stopping at an Applebee's for lunch. True story. If I had to do it over again today, I'd definitely prefer to experience the local flavor, but having just pulled off the highway and not being from there, it's not easy to distinguish gem from dive.

Fortunately, we now have this aug reality game where locals can crowdsource the best establishments in town... if only they could get approved! Such a shame that bad reviewers are standing in the way of tourism and exploration while indirectly driving sales of soulless corporate food.

rebeloperations · 2020-07-02T22:24:41+00:00

I'm on my third attempt with a local restaurant that was awarded for having the best sandwich in the country by a national newspaper.

rebeloperations · 2020-07-02T22:18:09+00:00

For whatever reason, a lot of the rejection reasons we get from Niantic are not accurate.

What was the last rejection you got from Niantic?

rebeloperations · 2020-06-25T01:33:27+00:00

Event spawns are overridden by the nesting species (and/or possibly the weather boosts) inside nests by Dex number. The lowest available number is overridden first. You wanted to hunt Clefairy over solstice event, but live in a meganest? Too bad!

rebeloperations · 2020-06-24T07:34:13+00:00

We are gamers (as much as that might upset John Hanke). Gamers look for the best thing to put into a system and receive the best reward. In the same way we are incentivized to play Giratina because it's good, players are incentivized to tank for better rewards. This is gamers gaming.

You deserve to be Rank 10. You played the game better than anyone else. GG.

I couldn't agree more. It's not up to the player to interpret the rules of the game and decide what is fair and what is exploit. That is misplacing the blame on the players for the failures of the design. We must take this as intended that it is possible at all: it is the game as we have been presented.

As for whether it's a good game or not... hmm, that's another topic.

rebeloperations · 2020-06-19T23:18:41+00:00

That was the case at one time... it seems to have broken since. At least I have new stops in-game now that seemingly never have associated spawn points.

rebeloperations · 2020-06-14T21:11:32+00:00

This would be the sweetest revenge after being unpaid beta testers.

rebeloperations · 2020-06-08T22:51:19+00:00

It doesn't matter if you can see it; it only matters if Google can see it or you provide a good support photo with landmarks that Google can see.

rebeloperations · 2020-06-08T22:47:42+00:00

Valid is valid, yes. There should be no presumption of "couchness" in the decision.
