#Ingress Operation Green Salmon
Tl;dr
#feew (Field Established Excellent Work)
7 layers x 9.18 million MU per layer (total 64 million MU)
Largest Cities Fielded: Boston, MA; Halifax, NS
Other Areas Fielded: New England; Long Island; New Jersey
Longest Link: 1883km
Number of agents with new Longest Link Ever Created: 12
Number of agents with new Largest Control Field: 6
Lasted: 17 minutes
Anchors used:
Atlantic City, NJ
New London, NH
Long Harbour, NL
Overview:
This field began one week ago, as a collaboration between Enlightened of Boston and Enlightened of New Hampshire. The original target was New England but we decided to go big with it. In the end, we partnered with agents in 7 US states and 3 Canadian provinces to create a field 1883km in length, which covered the target areas, as well as additional territory including almost the entire province of Nova Scotia (thus the name—Green Salmon).
The Op was designed to be a short-lasting field that would hold for one checkpoint. We chose Atlantic City partly as an experiment: to see whether an urban anchor would lead to more MU, which it absolutely did. However, it was a shameless MU grab, and we failed at that portion of the assignment. Long story short: in order to throw a link 1883km long, we needed a P8 with 4xRLA. Therefore, we had planned a farm to coincide with the Op. However, there was a natural obstacle on the Atlantic City Boardwalk (a Fleetwood Mac concert getting out) which caused various problems including delays of our agents and the presence of several RES agents at the concert. Stevie Nicks has to share at least some of the blame for this.
Unique features:
- Newer agents were involved in every aspect of this field. Many first-time megafielders now have insane field/link stats and bragging rights.
- Newfoundland anchor provided a visually stunning field that shows the curvature of the earth.
- Vermont ENL ran a stellar defense and held back a RES field for the same checkpoint.
- Finally, in the ultimate measure of megafield success, people had fun. Here are some comments from agents who participated.
“What a great time. It was great to get out and meet new players, have some fun and coordinate such a large field. And the show of diversity for a Trout to work on a Salmon misson was something I couldn't resist. One step closer to all fish living and working together in harmony. “ ~@CyberTrout
“This op was intense down to the last second! We were clearing links in lavelette as the field went up! Even though we took it anyway the field actually went up through a small blue link at first. But once it was up then there were quickly 6 fields layered. The green was so thick you couldn't see the map or portals in the field. Haha solid green! Go Enlightened!” ~@Kneako
“Made the roadtrip with agents SNRAUTOMATOR and SaucyFace1976 to the Newfoundland anchor to enjoy the show.” ~@upsideright
“Had a blast helping out! Our part in NS was pretty straightforward but it's always fun being part of ops like this. Super happy to see the fields made it up! We would gladly take part again.” ~@BlackandTan
“Unfortunately a Fleetwood Mac concert let out and dropped a ton of fans out on the anchor as it was being linked. Very cool though!” ~@edawson29
“For the first op I was a part of I can easily say it won't be the last. I remember down the the last minutes alixbird, kneako, and myself were scrambling trying to clear the last links along the island in New Jersey then pop the biggest field I've ever experienced was keeping my mind safe. I can't wait to be apart of another op!” ~@Peternower
“it was cold and I had to pee.” ~@goodonya
“The boardwalk was icy, the wind was cold, and I was wearing a dress, but it was all worth it. “ ~@holleeta
