Twice now I have seen nearly the entire metro area surge and then disappear within a minute. No doubt its just the "boys" in the corporate office having some fun and laughing as they kick back and watch a pile of ants go online, do u-turns and other stuff as they kick back and watch on a giant 100 inch screen in their command centre.

They really do value their partners, don't they?

Don't ask me how I got it, but I've managed to secure a pic of one of the uber office team leaders trying a new method of 'reaching out'...
Each staff member gets to perform a charade if they manage to attract 50 ants or more to a fake surge...

Nice! If I had such a pic and a willing informANT, I would love to log that with the ACCC.

Weekday 6:43pm? Pax can wait for more than 5 minutes.
I have tested some flash surges using GPS hack, but 2.1x was the best that I could get.
If there were not enough pax and the surge was only due to pure lack of drivers, you can't get it.
