Women's Day Ops

In light of the celebration of Women's Day, Resistance Pilipinas rallied its forces to join a global effort involving resistance women.

Resistance Pilipinas has one of the largest number of women who play ingress. To show this, we decided to create the largest level 8 all women's portal in the Philippines. Target areas are Intramuros, Rizal Park (Luneta), University of Sto. Tomas (UST) and Quezon Memorial Circle (QMC).

March 9, 2014 3:00 PM Assembly at Manila Cathedral

A total of 16 ingress women joined the operation. Enough to divide into two teams to cover more ground. Team A will cover Fort Santiago while Team B the rest of Intramuros. I was part of Team A along with other agents. 
Team A: from left to right, akosiemily;ninjamoves;ravenangel;fauxlivia;cydoki;kurochan(me); then xlushx and evrael at the back.

 Team B: from left to right, c6h12o2; seraque; missungit; supremakalliope; kesocheese; yunha;japanesedoll; empressk;

Fort Santiago is a defense fortress built by Spanish conquistadors inside the walled city in Manila also known as Intramuros.






After Fort Santiago, one of our team mate was already feeling dizzy and had to go home. So for our next area, we had to stick together. It was already dark when we finished upgrading portals in Intramuros.





Rizal Park is the Kilometer Zero in the Philippines located adjacent to the walled city. It is a historical site that honours the Philippine national hero Dr. Jose P. Rizal.






We weren't able to go to UST since it was already about 8:00PM when we wrapped up at Luneta.
My feet were already screaming at this point so when we arrived to the next location, QMC, I upgraded some portals then left.

The result of our hard work? 250 level 8 all women's portal. not bad considering we were targeting 300 portals.
 Intramuros: 125 level 8 portals

 Luneta: 65 level 8 portals

QMC: 60 level 8 portals

It was fun meeting these girls.


And all these people who accompanied us along the way.




The world around you is not what it seems. Our future is at stake and you must choose a side. Resistance, a way of life. #Ingress
