Ingress Geeking

[billroper]

So I stopped on the way to the Capricon meeting today and spent fifteen minutes or so running a simple Ingress mission in a nearby park. As it happened, when I finished, I discovered that I still had portal keys to the pool a couple of blocks away on the other side of the street from when I watched Katie and Julie at their swimming lessons there, so I tossed enough small fields to push myself over 800K, which puts me a third of the way to level 8, which is when you get the biggest and best toys to play with.

I called tollers on the way to the meeting to see if she had anything to report. (Answer: no. We're in the slow part of the filk cycle for Cap.) So we did a bit of Ingress chatting. And after the meeting, I got to talk to a couple more folks on the Cap committee who are playing Ingress and compare notes.

If the weather weren't so abominably hot, I'd take Katie out to do some hacking, but I think this will wait until it's at least a bit cooler.

43 days ago, according to my scanner. :)

(Which is to say, I have managed to hack at least one portal every day since I started...)

That's a nice feature. Your sojourner number is only 5 below mine (I started playing before Sojourner went live -- back in early spring or late summer, and got to 91, but I reset when I had the seizures about, oh, 50 days ago or so).
