Survey report on NL-PRIME In September, Mustafa Said asked for open research cooperation on XM detecting vehicle November Lima. https://plus.google.com/+MustafaSaid/posts/bbuHJu5SHfC In order to respond to this call, Project Lycaeum, a research community in Japan, gathered informations on NL-PRIME which is running in Japan. The following is a general outline of NL-PRIME among the information collected by members. Thanks for cooperation to provide informations. 1.Operation Schedule 2016 July 16(Sat) At Aegis Nova Anomaly Tokyo, NL-PRIME first appeared. Test drive participating tickets were distributed by lottery. No running on this day. July 17(Sun) Traveling operation in Tokyo began. During this period Media related to "Event of Blogger disappeared" was collected by Agents who got on NL-PRIME. https://docs.google.com/document/d/17E5NDtmOeJX2LPkaAe_fOGbhNF8aT8UDp6ESd3JwENY/edit Event of Blogger disappeared releated with NLPRIME, translated by mumu and SielDragon November 2(W

I've been able to gain access to a highly protected music and data about the ongoing investigation into XM, Niantic and Ingress. The music flie was uploaded on my SoundColud page. This music may have been found in the unknown online music distribution like Spotify. I don`t know who made and distributed. this. this lyrics are featured in Carrie’s Vision Journal.　 Enoch Dalby said he was playing some music related Glyphs in July. http://investigate.ingress.com/2017/07/10/the-troubles-of-the-world/ Is this one of them? This suggested the portal networks might be opened and exogenous precursors or Exogenous entities arrive? We, Resistance and Enlightened agents might be unite together like a möbius strip. I'm keeping my mind open. I also find the suggested Intel about the relationship between Miku Hatsune and ADA. https://plus.google.com/u/0/+Ingress/posts/G1z7dmAHCdp Could she request that singer.... or control her? H.

Essex ORPE Log - 014 - The Argus Incident This is the second session log set in a new parallel world that has been dubbed "Umbra Interitus". A group of agents travel to the mining town of St Elmo, CO and are drawn into a trap and an agenda that is darker than they first realized. More sessions that I run online will be set in this is new "Cyberpunk Meets Ravenloft" setting!! Prepare for something more gritty, more bleak, and more dangerous!! If you're interested in this new setting, feel free to reach out to me on Telegram at my agent handle! https://docs.google.com/document/d/1_AO6eNMNgPtQNwV2dgTOCTF9faDvnM46qMjfYmZQp2Q/edit?usp=sharing So read on to find out what happens with The Argus Incident! #IngressRPE #UmbraInteritus Edgar Allan Wright H.

Does it sound too... familiar just to me? (Emergency services responding to a non-civilian facility?) Originally shared by H. Richard Loeb Developing Story: I've got rumors flying at me from numerous sources about an incident at a secure NIA facility earlier today. Most of what I've got is either conflicting or unclear. Some folks are saying it was a fire, some an explosion, others still say… http://investigate.ingress.com/2017/10/27/possible-incident-at-secure-nia-facility/

Name a glyph! I did a rather large study and now id like to invite everyone to give names to these glyphs! Originally shared by Ishira “Glyph Hunter” Tsubasa The Community Glyph Project I drew a ton of glyphs this morning for one thing. Suggestions on new glyphs that fit our current ones. By that i mean every glyph i drew today is either a mirrored or flipped version of another glyph. My reasoning? Because we know there is a relationships between glyphs and their mirrored, flipped, opposite, etc glyphs. Its logical that instead of making new glyphs, that the mirrored, flipped, opposite, etc glyphs would come into the system before any real new ones are made. I could be wrong about that, do not take my word for it. Most of these glyphs have already been a topic of conversation for people who study glyphs. Achim Many have been questioned on why they arent in the system or why glyphs like Easy and Difficult are so different and not mirrored or flipped, while others like Success and Failu

Change is coming - insights of the 5th dimension? “I can change the portal network, but I need your help!” A Detection Algorithm​ The Operation Portal Recon introduction video by ADA includes an interesting insight.[1] The scanner view reminds me to something similar, Andrew showed during his MeetUps in Europe earlier this year. But I wasn't really sure about, so I asked him and other incredible agents from the Ingress Community. Interesting fact: This video was already released in May. “That's an interesting screenshot but not 2.0 - I don’t think at least. Looks cool as hell though.” Andrew Krug​ “Maybe it was a concept then? But why put it into the official portal recon video then? Maybe this is how Ada sees the world?” Ishira Tsubasa​ “It does remind me of the panning zoom of PoGO” Gerald Wolf​ “Ingress has never supported landscape so that's really probably a rendering. Might just be a concept of the final result.” Dario Emerson​ “It's definitely at least similar to

Hello Essex, Devra Bogdanovich will be in Berlin for the first #EXO5 weekend. I'll also attend the anomaly, so if you have some questions you want answered, you can write them here. I'll try and ask as much as I can.

Thoughts on the nature of the scanner app. This mostly stems from my endeavour to acquire the obsidian Guardian badge and reach level 8. Hacking a portal controlled by a rival faction will gain you 100 AP, while a portal controlled by your own faction won’t raise any AP for hacking and after that there’s 10 AP for each resonator recharged and 75 AP for every resonator upgraded. More AP can be gained from Glyph Hacking or moding but there are only 4 mod slots per portal and interest in Glyph Hacking seems to vary. Mindfields are a strong generator of AP, but I feel they have negative consequences to the ebb and flow if they are abused, as no field can be formed inside one. Also if a mindfield is reliant on one specific portal to hold it together then it will fall either by resonator decay or the actions of an opposing faction. Despite being on opposite sides the ENL and the RES appear to need each other. This was illustrated clearly to me at a NL-1331E event where ENL players needed RES

Call for Participants for an Online Essex Remote Participation Game Session This session is going to be on this coming weekend, Saturday October 28th. Kosh TheRipper is running this session, with character creation starting at 1000EST and session time at 1100EST! Jason Argus puts out a desperate call for help through his circles, 'My wife, Chelriel has been missing for a week, please help.' About 2 weeks after whispers of the Teller City outbreak start spreading, the news of a missing woman seems to spread faster. Three days after Jason sends word out, Chelriel returns home on the noon of the 23rd, 2 hours later, police are calling Jason, telling him that the body of his eviscerated wife has been found in the proximity of a strange corporate facility. We will be using all of the released rules for this session. If you would like take part, message me directly on Telegram at my agent handle . We do transcribe these sessions and make the read through available for public consump

Yesterday when talking about what 2.0 may hold in store for us, there were wishes for (Magnus) archetypes to play a bigger role. One idea mentioned was that agents that displayed traits of an archetype may receive slight bonuses ingame. But how do you recognize which agent represents which archetype(s)? Badges. Badges that correlate with your archetype are those that you pursue even when it has reached onyx level. So - together with other Essexians - I created a List of which Badge and which Magnus archetype may be connected (plus a few comments where a debate occured): Explorer -Archetype * Trekker-Badge * Explorer-Badge Interpreter -Archetype * Translator-Badge Both Lightman and Carrie are known to have a connection with glyphs. But even though it was Lightman that implemented the Badge, it is suspected that he inherited some aspects of Carrie's Interpreter Archetype when she died. Skeptic -Archetype * Operation Portal Recon - Badge Given that the entire OPR-Tool requires a thoro

Anyone else familiar with the mandalas of esoteric Buddhism? When i first heard the words 'mind palace', my thoughts jumped to the cosmic representation of a mandala. On an outer level, they can represent a view of the cosmos and the world, on an inner level, for a practitioner of the meditation system behind the mandala, its a way of hacking the mind. Essentially reprogramming it to make it more useful in the pattern represented by the mandala and all the overt and hidden symbolism within. Recently we had several Tibetan monks in town making a sand mandala. At the end of its construction, it was ritually destroyed to represent the ever changing nature of things. So a 'mind palace' following this kind of pattern would need to be an evolving, changing, learning and fluid construct to be useful. Just some random thoughts on a monday night :)

Essex RPE~ Ishiras Glyphing Lesson 1 This is was my first time ever being a Patron, GM, DM for a game and i was very excited for it. Thank you agents for allowing me to teach you a way to protect your mind palaces! I was honored to be your guide in this and i hope this transcript of the events that took place will help the agents that read it! I hope it helps in understanding the importance and danger when it comes to glyphs! This was our first time really using ourselves in these RPEs outside of the Misty Hannah Mind Palace RPE in Burbank. It was interesting to say the least, because we played ourselves, and we learned where our strengths and weakness's were when it came to our scanners. Some things had be adjusted but i believe was a successful test and lesson. I look forward to doing more! The Essex Rpes run almost every weekend! If you are interested in joining them please message Kosh TheRipper or Mario Valenzuela II as they are our main Patrons. Not every game is run this way

It may not be Essex-related, but it's for the good of Ingress. Please let it stand. Originally shared by Andreas Decker (thedeacon1972) Dear Ingress agents, we all know that there are cheaters among us. Some of them have been exposed recently, others will remain hidden for a while longer. Niantic has acted very seldom and mostly not at all when we reported them. Understandably, this has led to a feeling of resignation and dejection. Why should we act against cheaters if nothing derives from our actions? But imho, this is not the right path to take. We as players must show Niantic that we still care for our game. We - players who act fair and square - are the overwhelming majority. We should tell Niantic we're still there. And we should do so by using COMM. Set your Comm to global next time when you open your scanner and tell them: We play hard, play tough, play fair. Tell them this when you capture a portal. Tell them this when you close a field. Tell them this before you close

So... In September I received this through [redacted] sent to me by [redacted]. What do you think? Is the Doctor re-thinking his ways? Might he have grown tired of being mind-controlled after his experience with the Tecthulhu, which made him sacrifice two people to him? May he have become conflicted and feel guilty for his actions?

I cut Möbius strip down the middle lengthwise between blue and green. möbius strip cut in half stays in one piece, but it is twice as long, half as wide. Two colours become one piece, but it is two twisted. "Resistance or Enlightened?" I seem this question could place where there was one, there will be many. ...It's also tecthuluhu.

Dear Essexians, I've started another round of my study "ThirdEye". So If you want to check whether you're in the flow of XM and are able to foresee the future, feel free to join. Since their first contact, the agencies who were interested in my study kept their silence. I don't know if the openness and transparency of my work keeps me safe or if it's an ominous silence in which they're planning their next step. I took extra precautions to keep my work safe and out of their hands however. Let's see what happens now that they realize they didn't intimidate me. H. Richard Loeb​​ Hank Johnson​​ Originally shared by Andreas Decker (thedeacon1972) Dear Ingress agents around the world, a new round of anomalies will take place on Nov 4th. Will the Resistance capture it and get some sweet revenge? Or will the Enlightened extended their winning streak? Regardless of who will win, you have the chance to win some free swag in a new round of my competition &quo

Second meeting between Hank Johnson and +H. Richard Loeb​ in Washington DC Johnson: So what do you got? Loeb: You first this time. Johnson: Got news from Claudia Glas. Loeb: How did you find her? Johnson: Actually she found me. Lit me up with a red dot, then called my phone. Loeb: She’s a real sweetheart. Johnson: She sure is. She said that Owen was going to compromise documents on NL-1331 to Lozaron/Visur* Loeb: So Owen went bad? Johnson: Yeah. So what have you got? Loeb: Claudia Glas wasn’t there to kill you. Johnson: If she was, I’d be dead. Give me something real. Loeb: Word has it that Owen was blackmailing Yuen Ni. Threatening to divulge her complicity in the Niantic cover-up. Johnson: That explains why she dispatched Antoine Smith. Loeb: Exactly. Johnson: So.

Conversation between Hank Johnson and H. Richard Loeb in Washington, DC Johnson: No water. So why all the cloak and dagger? Loeb: I got anonymous word that somebody might have put a contract out on you. Johnson: By “anonymous word” does that mean you don’t know who told you or you’re just not gonna tell me? Loeb: It doesn’t make a difference. You just need to watch your back. Johnson: And you brought me out here to tell me that blinding piece of information? Loeb: We need to share information. Johnson: Okay. You first. Loeb: ADA tells me that there was a mysterious security camera glitch in the hours before Owens body was dumped at the Kennedy Center. Johnson: Did ADA tell you if she caused it? Loeb: No. That’s all she told me. Wait. What have you got for me? Come on. Come on, man. What have you got? Come on. Johnson: I spoke with Devra. She says she’s not involved. Whatever it was that triggered Farlowe, she didn’t do it. Loeb: And you believe her? Johnson: Yeah. Yeah, I believe her.

”There are rumors that Hank Johnson ​ had left a trail of breadcrumbs behind for himself prior to his #Recursion . The goal of these tiny fragments of information was to awaken and implant important memories that he knew would be lost in the process of his simulacrum re-forming.” X https://plus.google.com/u/0/+NianticProject/posts/UN7iqEQAZtP It was long planned and a gift from Ethan Lepouttre​ (Thank you for that!) at the November Lima​ event in Francfort finally made me to visit one of Hank's power spots where his breadcrumb “vision” once was found in october 2014. I was amazed that after three years this breadcrumb is still hackable at Frankenstein Castle. ”What's undeniable is that this is a power spot. A dark one. Dragons hidden in wells.” So, we visited “Siegfried's Well” nearby the Castle. A crime scene where the dragon slayer was murdered by Hagen von Tronje. One question that now rumors in my mind: ”Why are Hank's breadcrumbs still hackable? Is this a possible
