Future Massive Events

Craeft

Heya. I think this would be the right category for this.

Now, I COULD wait until after the whole Fan Day thing to ask this but I'm kinda curious now and don't want to forget to ask in the future.

So here's my query: Understanding that there is the fan day thingie coming up in IN, is it planned to make this almost like "anomaly" events (from Ingress)? One thing I loved about the anomalies (and I also understand they are two completely different games in concept) was the "secrecy" aspect - the strategy required with your team. It felt like a convention, but interactive. November Lima being there was kinda cool too. I don't know if that's what's planned for the Fan events or not. If so, then will tour dates be planned for these events? How present will Niantic and WU staff be? If it is similar, then I will be extremely excited when one comes a bit closer to Flint (got to visit NL in Lansing and also go to the Detroit anomaly).

I know a lot of this will be answered AFTER the Indiana event, but I won't be able to make it so I'm hoping for a bit of light on this topic.

Thanks in advance. :)
