Ingress Anomaly Netherlands - Update 4
Gameplay rules, agenda and awards

The anomaly is tomorrow and therefor it is time to unveil the gameplay rules and final information. A long post!

The unofficial Ingress anomaly will take place on Monday, November 25th, 19:00h - 21.00h at the UvA sportscenter (Science Park 306, Amsterdam - http://goo.gl/maps/EdQal ).


Agenda
The agenda/planning of the day will be as follows:
(17.00 DroidconNL BBQ starts, anomaly organizers can be found here, BBQ is only for the people who signed up earlier, but everyone's welcome to join in for a drink)
18.45 Both factions gather on location (you'll see Ingress banners standing outside). Also passcode cards will be handed out (see photo)
19.00 Anomaly game starts!
21.00 Anomaly game ends, scores will be calculated (see below)
21.10 The winning players and faction will be announced and the prizes (see below) will be handed out accordingly. Afterwards everyone is invited to have a drink on location!


The anomaly gameplay rules
1. Scoring
Scores will be measured per agent/player. An agent can score points by placing resonators on his/her portal and defending it as long as possible: you get 1 point every 2 seconds per placed resonator. If you happen to own the portal (first placed resonator), you get an additional 5 points per 2 seconds. We've got (neutral) hamsters keeping track of each portal (see added photo for selected, valid, scoring portals).

See added screenshot for portals that count for scoring during the anomaly! Links and fields do not add to your individual or the faction's total score.

2. The final score
The final result of the anomaly game can not be discussed nor altered in any way. The organization (including myself) will be neutral before, during and a little while after the anomaly.

Winners are agents based on their collected points between 19.00h and 21.00h (the 'anomaly game time'). The winning faction is based on the collective score of all participating agents.

3. All is fair in love and war, but stay nice.
Be nice to each other; it's a game after all. This should speak for itself, but it can't be stated enough. Keep the actual battle within the Ingress game on your phone/tablet.


Prizes!
- All agents participating in the anomaly game will receive an official First Edition Ingress Comic book, as well as awesome-looking item pass code cards.
- Players ranking #20 to #4 get to choose from 3 types of official Ingress t-shirts (neutral (grey, see photo) and faction-coloured t-shirts) - agents from the winning faction will get to choose first.
- Players ranking #3 to #1 will receive all of the above (t-shirt, comic book and pass code cards) and a Bol.com gift cards valued at €25 (3rd place), €50 (2nd place) and €75 (1st place)!
