EX-Raids invitations

Hey guys, I was just wondering if snybody has heard anything about Niantic changing something about the EX-Raid system again? Cause just a bit over an hour ago, the new wave rolled, and quite a few people including me got one. The strange thing about it is that we seem to have two EX-Raids. Both on Monday, 30/4, just different times and locations in our town. And I‘m pretty sure that those two gyms even are in the same cell. So have there been any changes?

Nothing different here. It's possible that Niantic may have expanded the number of gyms in your area that are EX-eligible, but it would be very surprising if both gyms were in the same level 13 S2 cell. That's been a consistent feature for the past couple of months.

Well, both gyms have had at least one EX-Raid before, so that‘s not the problem. But since when do they use Level 13 cells? Because that could be the answer. I just checked, and if I got it right, those indeed are 2 cells. But I always thought Niantic uses the bigger(?) Level 12 cells? Also, if were already here, is it possible for one person to have 2 EX-Raids in one day? Because today, some people did raid at both gyms that got invites, but only got one invite

They switched to level 13 cells in mid-February and it's been largely consistent since then. I don't think it's generally possible for someone to have multiple invites in one wave, but I think there was a bug a few weeks ago where people got multiple simultaneous invites.

I have been invited for a gym that had never triggered ex-raids yet.
And that was the one we had tried the most to raid in big numbers until february...
