Veiled Universities - Custodians of Knowledge

As the opposing philosophies of the two Academies divide the world, new minds seek out the secrets of knowledge long since forgotten. While the Animators wish to preserve and protect these ancient teachings, Architects seek to use it as a tool to harness true power. Ancient Universities containing many such secrets of magic lost, quickly become points of intense battle. Who amongst you will act in the interest of your Academy and take control of the mysteries of these ‘Veiled Universities’.

The ‘Veiled Universities’ campaign will begin Monday, August 22 at approximately 11:00 AM PDT and will run for one full week. Individual rewards will be provided to top contributors at the end of each round and total energy gains can be tracked on the leader board.

During the campaign, gateways where the following 15 Universities are listed must be controlled by your Academy. We will be rewarding 20 mages randomly with a stack of Academy stickers amongst the team who holds the most Gateways for the longest period of time during all three rounds!

Harvard University, Cambridge, Massachusetts, USA
Yale University, New Haven, Connecticut, USA
University of Texas at Austin, Austin, Texas, USA
University of Florida, Gainesville, Florida, USA
Université Laval, Québec City, Canada
University of Oxford, Oxford, England, UK
University of Cambridge, Cambridge, UK
Université Paris 6 Pierre et Marie Curie-Jussieu, Paris, France
Universidad de Salamanca, Salamanca, Spain
Università degli Studi di Bologna, Bologna, Italy
Alte Universität, Heidelberg, Germany
Uppsala universitet, Uppsala, Sweden
Universiteit Leiden, Leiden, Netherlands

So what do we benefit from controlling these gateways? Will we be able to harvest from them despite not being there physically?

Ditto what Pulch said. What is my incentivete to help control one of these if I cannot harvest from my dom? And, will these gateways be available to all or do we have to find friends there? If they are not available to all it seems to promote spoofing.

So instead of dealing with spoofers, they make a campaign specifically for them? This is beyond stupid, I refuse to participate in this soon-to-be spoof-fest beyond obliterating the orange masses that will surely come, at least that will be fun.

Shame, you guys were on such a good streak of cool campaigns too.

doubtful, seeing as they do jack all about it now beyond one ban, who promptly made a new account and continues spoofing all day.

We will observe the behaviors of mages during the campaign closely. The gateway objective isn't tied to the physical game, and is only an external competition we are running. So it won't affect the actual campaign leaderboards or the outcome of which team controls your region/battlegroup.

Of course. So this "themed" campaign has no addition to the game whatsoever.

Great. Yet another one.

In what radius around the universities are we talking about?
