Another two months have come and gone, and it becomes time to update my progress on nominating PokéStops. As always, the November edition is by nature the last one of the year since in two months it'll be the next year, and more things (and nominations) will happen then. But for the "now", there are a few things to be gleaned from the updates to the nominations that have been made and what they (may) mean for the ones to be made in the future.
The numbers are always a good way to begin and illustrative of the situation. The nominations that became Accepted are now at 191, an increase of 8. However, so did the Not Accepted nominations, increasing by 2 to 69. At present, I also have no new nominations in line (whether In Queue or In Voting) nor in the Appeal process. Meanwhile, the Accepted ones have been realized as both PokéStops and Power Spots, fulfilling their intended objectives.
What can be seen is that the nomination process in recent times has gone a lot faster, where in the past it tended to leave "backlogs". As such, it may be that sometimes I may not need to update the status of the nominations in line unless they happen to be there - as in, they were put into the system within a few days (or even mere moments) of making this update post. That, in a way, streamlines the process (or did so) on both sides.
Recent rejections also highlight (also in a way, remind) that it may be of better interest to me to repeat the process of nominating a waypoint - that is, making a re-nomination - in certain circumstances, rather than risking a wasted Appeal in the process. After all, I can make many more nominations in a single day, more so than an Appeal, which only comes about once every month. The task now may be to create an inventory for these nominations.
Over this past year, the nomination process can be described as having taken place rather swimmingly with many more nominations becoming Accepted and fulfilling the two roles of PokéStops and Power Spots, which definitely should make a difference. With that, my next efforts may just have to involve applying little differences to the nominations to come and ensure that they result in big differences across the world of Pokémon Go for everyone.
