Clarification

Our old post Surveillance revealed has been updated. We are hopeful that this will shed some light on our previous post last month.

In other news, we are proud to report that the blog is now in contact with Niantic regarding the upcoming Mission Day! Dates and more information will be posted shortly.

We know.

A guide to choosing faction

Choosing faction is important. Maybe the most important choice in the game. To help future agents in our local area we have made this guide to help you select the most suitable faction.

Circle your answer (YES or NO) and then count your circles in each column (RES and ENL). The column with the most circles gives you a good idea on which faction to choose.

Question	RES	ENL
Do you have a sense of humor?	YES	NO
Do you often feel offended?	NO	YES
Do you prefer to farm blue L8 portals?	YES	YES
Do the word "enemy" make you afraid and anxious?	NO	YES
Have you ever abused your spouse?	NO	YES
Have you ever stalked your team mates in any game?	NO	YES
Do you enjoy a top down organisation in your team?	NO	YES
Do you enjoy sarcasm?	YES	NO
Do you enjoy changing your IGN?	NO	YES
Do you have an habit of accusing new members of your team for cheating?	NO	YES
Do you have an habit of accusing the other team for cheating?	NO	YES

If you are already a player, how did you score? Did your scoring match your current faction choice? Please use the comment section below to discuss your results.

A new record!

Yesterday marks a great day for ENL GBG! A new record in Ingress has been set!

Only 6 minutes from completing training agent MrWinks decided to change his codename! The blog has great hope for this new player who seems to fit our team like a glove!



MrWinks, please contact us as soon as your name change has been processed so that we can update our enl.io.

Also a big THANK YOU to our reader (who wishes to remain anonymous) who submitted the screen shot above! The blog thankfully accept reader submissions on our email address enlgbg@gmail.com!

GO ENL!

ToS violations

Agents!

It is important that you read and follow the instructions on this blog!

It was more than one week ago that we posted that the recent name changes are against the Terms of Service of Ingress and is regarded as cheating.

Clearly stated on this page you may read that

"Codename changes are only allowed for players that accidentally input their real name or their activation code."

Therefore,

Zink76, Swt*chie75 and sm*rfdoedare! We are sorry to let you know that this blog will report you for this ToS violation and we advice other agents to do the same. We do not tolerate cheaters on our team.

Other agents! Please stop changing your name! We cannot afford to lose more agents!

yours truly
The Mods of ENL GBG

Ps. Today is Monday. See you tonight for fracking L1 portals as usual! You know where.

We are sorry!

We are sorry! We are sorry!

We have previously stated that all Agents should change names to avoid those irritating smurfs. We have now found out that Codename changes are only allowed for players that accidentally input their real name or their activation code.

This means that mean many of you who have followed our instructions and changed your IGN (in game nicname) have actually violated the Terms of Service of Ingress. Since we in ENL GBG do not accept this kind of cheating we now advice all of you who have illegaly changed your names to report yourselves using the following form

https://support.ingress.com/hc/en-us/requests/new?ticket_form_id=164398

or (even better) ask Niantic to delete your account

https://support.ingress.com/hc/en-us/requests/new?ticket_form_id=83087

Thank you for playing with us and please understand that we cannot tolerate this in our community.

The latest name change in our family!

Please say welcome (or congratulations) to the latest Agent in our family to change name

Agent......

REINDEER FONDLER (Formerly known as revolutionary mother)



Agent Reindeer Fondler asks everyone to please respect his privacy and that his sexual preferences are not of anybodys business but his. And a few reindeers. Quite a few actually.

A little riddle for you

I was once known as


Then I change my name to

What is my name now?

Public Service announcement!

In an attempt to cover up my guardian I have decided to change my In Game Name (IGN for you noobs!).

I am now known as Agent LoveBoobies.

Thank you for your time.

Kind regards
Agent LoveBoobies (formerly known as Uselessabilityguru)

Surveillance revealed

We have recieved information that the RESistance in Gothenburg have been tracking our every move with some device called a "scanner"! With this device they are able to see whatever we do in the game! Where we are, what actions we perform and where we link. We have already contacted Niantic about this since it probably violates their Terms of Service. We have not received any reply yet, but we will post it on this blog as soon as we do. It would be preposterous if this kind of monitoring of players was allowed!

Since a lot of the damage has already been done, we recommend all ENL agents in Gothenburg to change their IGN to avoid further tracking. This is done by using the following form
https://support.ingress.com/hc/sv/requests/new?ticket_form_id=88017

The following agents have sucessfully change their IGN. If your name is not on this list you are still monitored by the RESistance!!
