OP123: A Northern Affair

OP123: A Northern Affair

A couple of weeks into the #DarkXMCure challenge, agents in Ireland and Scotland got the ping from @Azhreia they’d been [hoping for/dreading] — it’s time to make a link, and it has to go from Glasgow city centre, to Kanturk. All together now: where on earth is Kanturk??? Having found it, the rest of the planning began in earnest: keys would have to move between countries, blockers from islands needed to drop, and they were going to need people up…

OP122: Swiss Air Force

OP122: Swiss Air Force

On 7 April 2018, Resistance Switzerland, Austria and France had to connect Geneva and Innsbruck for #DarkXMCure challenge. Really? A link of more than 400km across the Alps, in April? The avalanche danger was particularly high! So the question was: How to throw this link without endangering an agent!? More than once they were on the verge of canceling the action. But finally a solution was found. Resistance Air Force with their pilot @r2k and the two passengers @Chicken3gg and…

OP121: Malaysia to Thailand

On 31 March 2018, Resistance Malaysia was involved in a #DarkXM Link Ops connecting Malaysia and Thailand. In order to succeed, agent @tyyuuiy had to fly to Phuket Island to deliver keys as well as lead the local players there. No time for sightseeing – he was there for only 26 hours and only saw the sea from the plane 🙁 Back in Malaysia, agents had to drive a combined total of 1000KM (622 miles) in order for the ops…

OP120: Scilly Wednesday

After the successful OP108 to the Isles of Scilly in May 2017, it was time to go again to de-green it and kill the links to Wales and Ireland. Agents @BillthePig and @HardwoodDez flew to St Mary’s where they separated, one taking a ferry to St Martin’s and the other to St Agnes. No time for sightseeing, they had to hurry to kill all the portals and get back on time for the afternoon flight back. Please help these RES…

OP119: RoadWarrior vs Raccoon

OP119: RoadWarrior vs Raccoon

One of Canada’s most dedicated road warriors needs our help after an Ingress-related car crash. For years, @JoeSimpleton has been involved with every major field (and the occasional shard) that flies through Central Ontario, even though he rarely gets to field. He’s logged more than 1,000km for an OP on multiple occasions and routinely puts in hundreds of kms of driving to areas where few Smurfs play, just so RES can field. On Oct. 21, Joe’s rental car had a…

OP116: #BelfastWillHaveCake !!!

We know there are some anomaly shenanigans happening on the day, so our crack bakery Smurfs in the Resistance Cake Committee need to make sure there is enough cake to feed our hungry Smurf forces afterwards while accommodating a variety of diets. There will be a range of treats from brownies, cupcakes, our extra special Ingress themed cakes, with hushed whispers of pie and cheese too. Contributions are very much appreciated to help our Cake Committee make this the best…
