ex raid whys?

any ideas why there is only one ex raid a week? at this rate it's going to take 3 months to get through everyone and that's assuming no doubles.

Why are the gyms even locked while waiting for it?

If there are players in your area that got 6-10 and you didn’t get any, you just not trying hard enough in the right way

It's pretty much a lottery system. Even if you do fulfill the prerequisites for the EX Raid System as stated by Niantic, it's still no guarantee that you'll receive an EX Raid Pass. I'm hearing people who have done over 300 raids in sponsored gyms or gyms in parks, with silver/gold badges, still haven't received a single pass, while someone who raids in said gyms (probably bronze badge or less) one time gets a pass. There are people who have received EX Raid Passes multiple times, which leaves out people who haven't received one. With a system like this, you have to get lucky.

I can relate. Got my first ex raid pass at a gym in a park last weekend, but my gym badge is only bronze if I recall correctly. I was pretty surprised I got an invite.

Badges and raid frequency makes absolutely no difference. In my city many are getting back to back ones Dec 3rd and 11th. Or Dec 11 and Dec 18. I think they are inviting more now.

300 legendary raids is not a lot of raids. But currently they are handing out to lower levels and bronze/no gym badges for sure despite what their press release said.

In my town the same gym went back to back weeks. And it was the only gym with an ex raid. So since there are no raids during the week in an ex gym, you guessed it, the only people who got a pass week 2 were the same ones who went in week 1.
