hey! I was a huge fan for Ingress for a little while (some of my tops posts were about it), but I stopped playing for various reasons.

anyways onto the questions (I have a few, if you don't mind)

1) when Niantic was first formed, what was your strategy to market a new company like Niantic?

2) what do you think of the results of the marketing done for Ingress? do you think it could've been a bigger success?

3) being responsible for all live events, how do ensure that people get enough bandwidth and that your servers can handle the load? I attended an anomaly twice and once about half of the people around me couldn't do much as we just couldn't connect to anything at all.

4) how long does Anomalies, both primary and satellites, take to plan and organise? from nothing to D-day.

thanks for the AMA!

I'll be waiting for your AMA as a wrestler :)

thanks for the responses! I think that Ingress is a game with a niche market. the concept behind it is super cool and has loads of potential, as seen in Pokémon GO. hopefully there are plans to continue to grow the Ingress community worldwide! last question, if I may: do you think that Pokémon GO is eating into the market share of Ingress? if so, what are your opinions of that?

thank you again for this AMA!

saw that you visited Singapore. I've got a few questions for you, hope you'll answer :D

1. How was your experience in Singapore?

2. On which date were you here?

3. Have you tried any of the local food here?

Thanks for doing this AMA, just found out about you today, interesting trip you're taking, wish I could do the same. Cheers!

hi am a parent pls gib free copy /s

thanks for hosting this AMA, a couple of questions:

1) how would you describe the feeling when your kid first played your game?
2) as someone who really wants to get into programming/coding, what advice would you give, considering my environment isn't oriented towards that field and what I'm learning is completely unrelated?
3) what inspired you to make a game for your kid?
