Niantic has revealed the rules for the Cryptic Memories Anomaly Series. There are 3 ways to earn the anomaly medal - from the 4 anomaly sites, from shard nights in 36 cities across 3 nights, or from cell battles in 36 cells across 3 septicycles. There is also a supporter medal that can be bought in the store, as well as the previously-announced global op medal.

These infographics should help explain the 3 different medals, as well as how to participate and earn the medal via the two new events - shard nights and cell battles.

It’s anomaly weekend! If you see me out an about in Porto, with the baby and my pin-filled jacket, feel free to say hi. I have a handful of goodies to give away, though my stash is smaller than it was in Honolulu.

It’s Mission Day in Porto! First 3 people to find me get a loadout card.

Edit: I’ve been found by a group from Spain! Great to see you all!

On Monday, a shadowy operative slipped a small package into my hand – a couple of innocuous pieces of toast concealing a tiny thumb drive. Curiosity piqued, I rushed to my secure terminal and accessed the drive's contents, revealing a single video file. The grainy footage flickered to life, bearing an all-too-familiar insignia – the mark of the long-dormant Ingress Report. Yet, something seemed amiss; subtle discrepancies hinted at an unsettling deception. Given the date, and some obvious differences from the original version, I had my doubts, so I’ve spent the last couple of days vetting it.

A deepfake? An elaborate hoax? Days of analysis yielded nothing definitive. The source? A ghost. The information? Tangible. Too real to ignore.

Weighing the potential consequences, I realized the world deserved to know, even if the source remained an enigma cloaked in shadows.


UPDATE: Creators have been declassified. Credit goes to Ingress agents @Katvinci and @KodBilenAdam.

And this time, also a web-based calculator, thanks to @KodBilenAdam: https://notnianticlabs.com/buried-memories-global-op-pts-calculator/

Dipping my toes into Reels / Shorts while I get ready to go to Chicago tomorrow… whee!!!

If you see me there, as always, feel free to say hi. I have a new biocard and maybe a few other goodies.

Out and about near the play box doing missions. If you run into me before the anomaly starts and want to be featured on the next Ingress Report or on NotNiantic’s reels/shorts, say hi. Or even if you just want a biocard, say hi!

Congratulations to the Enlightened for a solid victory in Chicago, and thanks to the Resistance for putting up a solid fight.

I’m going to be spending the next hour or so investigating the Machina in the play box. If you want to be featured in the next Ingress Report, be sure to say hi. As an added bonus, the first 2 agents I see will get a common loadout card.
