Ingress

There has to be a few of us here who play Ingress on our phones.  If you're not familiar with the game, Ingress is a game developed by Google that's playable on most Android devices.  The point of the game is you're either a member of the Enlightened or the Resistance, and you're trying to have your faction dominate an area through portals.  You walk around finding portals and taking actions when you encounter one such as hacking them for supplies, destroying enemy resonators, and placing or upgrading your faction's resonators. 

 

It's fun, they have designed it so that you're strongly encouraged to work with other players, and clearly it started out as a way to get people to go out and walk around and learn a little more about their neighborhoods.  When it started, most of the default portals were fire stations, post offices, and historical markers, but it's been expanding through user submissions.  I see that there are 3 portals around The Bank, and hopefully maybe a few more will be added in a few months.

 

So anyway, who else here plays Ingress, and what name, level, and faction are you?  I play as theblackdog, a Level 6 Resistance agent.
