86. Mythbusting Wayfarer

Published 10th of September 2023 ✅ Chris has news! If you forgot to change your bonus location after the last Wayfarer challenge you should be able to change it now. A while back Niantic asked for Wayfarers to nominate basketball courts on K-12 grounds, and that entire experience was… a dumpster fire right from the get go. The Wayfarer team is up to 1500 removed Wayspots in the Netherlands, so kudos to the Wayfarer team and everybody who’s involved in that thread on the forums who’s feeding them the Wayspots to remove or area’s to look at. Finally, this relates back to the Netherlands thread. A user by the name of RandomCybrarian posted on Reddit that they had received a 30 day ban in Wayfarer AND Pokémon GO for what they called “Nominating in good faith”https://reddit.com/r/TheSilphRoad/s/E3JRWGZ0OuT ✅ Topic #1 Science + Wayfarer = Good Some of these are mine, and some of these I got from either a tweet or a post I made in the Pokémon Professor Discord I saw another example of “This” on the map, so all of “Those” are eligible Poor AR Scans will result in your Wayspot being removed. Niantic decides whether or not your nomination is approved. The category list in Pokemon GO being a list of all eligible things  Gated areas are ineligible for prp/safe pedestrian access/inappropiate location Points of Interest on the grounds of apartment buildings or townhouse complexes are Private Property.. Something has safe pedestrian access if I can access the Wayspot from across the street. Niantic decides whether or not my approved nomination appears in my game Sports fields and parks *need* signs to be eligible. The review plugins don’t work on mobile Wayfarer abuse can lead to my Niantic Game account being banned Rejection Criteria overrule Acceptance Critera ✅ Topic #2 Wayfarer Challenge When?
