How to Earn the Tessellation Knight Medal - A Few Advice For New Truthseekers

After the announce of Tessellation medals, a lot of new truthseekers (medalseekers? just a joke.) ,including myself, rushed into the forum to earn a knight medal.
But some of us have not read the full rule of tessellation and posted picture of tressa medias everywhere. That's why I wanna tell how to earn the medal, and what behaviors cannot earn the medal--through I surely know that the Tessellation is far not only for a medal.
1. DO NOT post any media which has been in your inventory for a long time ANYWHERE. They are ALL outdated.
2. DO NOT post any media to a post that is NOT titled like "Tessellation Round X : XXXXXX". Or, it is surely the wrong place.
3. DO get ready early if you see PAC(@Truthseeker ) announced a drop. Passcode will be fully FR in a short time, so open your ingress game or intel map and get ready to redeem codes. But since the forum have down in April 25, I think you already know this.
4. DO make sure to post your tessera(the redeemed media) to the correct place with your faction(Enl/Res) in time. If you found the passcode in a pdf file from a post, just post the media in a comment right there. If someone gave you the passcode or the pdf file, ask them where you should post it. But if you forgot to post it for 2 hours(or other time, the deadline is often written in the post.), it will be outdated and "useless".
5.DO NOT edit your post.If you have posted wrong media or wrong faction name(HOW CAN YOU?), just write a new comment and make it right.Edited post will be ignored.
6. DO NOT redeem passcode from 1 single post if you have already successfully redeemed one. There will be NO extra point for you, but another agent may lost their oppotunity to redeem a tessera.
If someone have more advices to new truthseekers, please add them in comments.

But the real question is that no newcomers will see this post. They just post their outdated tesserae randomly. And if someone can see this post, they can also see the offical rule and thus this post is useless to them.
Well…
Good job😊
right ))
Should add the new rule where if you redeem more than one passcode, you get disqualified as well
Somehow meets point 6, maybe…
It negates instead? Cause base on what was posted by TH, you will now get disqualified. Think it was posted with the First Tessara for Round 11.
The agent will now not even get a point.
Yes, but the advice is still "do not redeem more than 1 code from 1 thread"…
I cannot edit this post itself now, but someone who read this can also read our comments.
So…… just let it be there.
Thanks for all your efforts. This whole thing is such a maze it took me nearly an hour to go through everything and (hopefully) understand it
What happens when all passcodes are redeemed already _ Like today I joined a bit late and no passcode was left. Any thoughts ?
PAC will either post more pages of codes (so pay attention to the thread) or you’re out of luck and you’ll need to wait for the next drop. A new page of codes was just published I believe
Well now it says for me passcode circuit too hot! How to deal with that ?
Answer: Wait.
If you have an android phone you can also enter passcodes on it, as well as on www.intel.ingress.com/intel But if you have iOS you only have the intel site. Passcode circuitry hot means you attempted to redeem too many passcodes. I think it’s about 10-15 per 3 hours? Maybe? I’m not sure exactly what the threshold is. But after that you can’t redeem for a while.
So Ive been trying but in vain. Gives me the same error. I hardly tried 5-6 codes on the intel map and then I was hit with the error. I guess all for nothing to be up early morning.
Like I said, I don’t know what the exact threshold is for how many redeems you can make. However there are still more Drops to come so don’t lose hope! We don’t know exactly when they’ll come but they will come some time. I also noticed you’re looking for help in getting used to the Tessellation. It’s 3am where I am rn but later today I’ll definitely try to explain things better for ya.
For now, I recommend pouring over the FAQ thread, the Tessellation Primer thread, the Directives, and maybe some of the early Rounds to see what has happened in the past.
Thanks for your help and time ! I appreciate it definitely. I went through the FAQ already, but I think I wasnt prepared for what was about to come my way. Its a bit all over. Also I wonder if I need to know any lore from before to actually solve the codes? I am still clueless of what the Archetype code is all about! Hope to hear back from you. Thanks once again.
Should an agent redeem more than 1 passcode for a single Tessera, this disqualifies the Knight medal for the specific screenshot post of this Tessera. But if this same Agent does it correctly and redeem only one code for another Tessera and post it in the correct thread, is he/she then qualified for the medal? I have a friend who have done that in his first participation, maybe because he didn’t fully knew the rules by that time. So I told him to redeem only one passcode on the next drop. Will he qualify for the medal then despite making the mistake on his first attempt?
As far as I know, one successful and correct attempt is enough and counted for the Knight of Tessellation medal. If someone has another kind of information, please correct.
how long does it take to receive the knight medal? I participated in Round 11LucidaDepart and round 11 ListenerArch and haven’t received the medal?
Likely whenever the Tessellation event is over and they've sorted out everyone's participation.
When they finally push out the medals for Tessellation after the end of the whole thing whenever that is.
