Rock.. Paper… Scissors… Go!

At the end of 2016, we asked for submissions for the “Make Us A Munzee” competition and then held a final round of voting to choose a winner. In the end, 2dld26 (Deidre Dunhom) came out on top with the Rock-Paper-Scissors Munzee! Since then, we’ve been working with her on everything from points and description, to design, and even to testing. Now, we’re ready to release the RPS Munzee to the public!

Description

The RPS Munzee is a credit item for greenies. When it is captured, the player is given the choice between Rock, Paper, Scissors, or Random and plays against the computer. Capture points are determined by the outcome of the game.

As a refresher:

  • Rock beats Scissors
  • Scissors beats Paper
  • Paper beats Rock

The RPS is deployed in-app like other credit items. It has the same proximity rules as greenies.

Points

Deploy: 15

Capture/CapOn: Split of 30

  • Computer Wins: 10 points for Capper, 20 points for Deployer
  • Capper Wins: 20 points for Capper, 10 points for Deployer
  • Tie: 15 points for both Capper and Deployer

How do I get one?

The RPS Munzee will be a MunzPak exclusive for the month of June. Each subscriber will receive six (6) in the June MunzPak. Remember your MunzPak subscription renews monthly on your charging date until you cancel. If you would like to start on June 1st also keep in mind the system runs on Central Standard Time (MHQ). Starting July 1st, they will be available in the Munzee Store. More information on that, and a reminder, will come towards the end of June.

The app and website will be updated over the next days to reflect the introduction of the RPS Munzee.

Once again, thank you everyone who participated in the “Make Us a Munzee” competition, and congratulations to 2dld26 for being chosen as the winner! We hope everyone enjoys the RPS Munzee.

Ready to play? Rock… Paper… Scissors… GO! Munzee on!

Munzee Database Upgrade

We will be upgrading the Munzee database on Thursday, June 2nd at 10:00 MHQ time. This upgrade will affect all Munzee services including the Munzee game, WallaBee, Eventzee, Runzee, and Zee. While it should last less than an hour, we cannot guarantee a specific duration.

This upgrade is meant to improve Munzee service and further our commitment to you, the players. We will keep you updated on the progress during the upgrade. You will also be able to see the status of Munzee services at status.munzee.com.

Thank you for your understanding, and Munzee on!

A Slight Delay in the UK

After a scary visit to Old Trafford, Rob and Matt found themselves in a bit of a pickle. Instead of flying back today (Monday, May 16th) as planned, they will be returning to the US on Wednesday, May 18th. That means Flat Robs will remain on the map through 23:59 MHQ time on Wednesday.

Munzee on!

Going Green In March Fundraiser: Skylar

As we’ve mentioned before, the proceeds from our March fundraising efforts are being distributed between three entities. Last Friday, we were able to present the first donation on behalf of Munzee players worldwide to Skylar Conover – Ms. Wheelchair USA 2015.

Rob Vardeman and Skylar Conover after the presentation of the donation.

A check for $5000 was presented to Skylar by Team Munzee for the continuation of her duties as Ms. Wheelchair USA and the education of communities to raise awareness and acceptance for individuals with visible and invisible disabilities. We’re very proud to support Skylar and her cause. If you want to know more about Skylar and the work she does, you can Like her on Facebook.

We are also very proud and thankful of our wonderful community that is so supportive of fundraisers and causes like this. Information regarding the other two donations will be coming shortly. Thank you again, and Munzee on!

Munzee Online Store Update

Hey everybody!

We’ve added some features to the Munzee Online Store that you need to be aware of.

  1. Username Validation – The username field has been moved to the product page and is now validated to make sure that you get your products right away. When you add a product to your cart, the store checks your entered username against the database to determine if it is valid. If it is, the product is added to your cart. If it is not, an error message pops up. Screen Shot 2016-05-09 at 10.35.18 AMScreen Shot 2016-05-09 at 10.35.49 AM
  2. Multiple Users Per Purchase – We also now support the ability to check out with items for multiple users in one purchase. After adding an item to your cart for one person, just change the username and the item to the cart again. On the cart and check out pages, you will see the items for both users separately.Screen Shot 2016-05-09 at 10.36.16 AM Screen Shot 2016-05-09 at 10.36.37 AM

There a few things to note:

  • If you are logged in, your username will be filled out automatically. (If it isn’t, log out and log back in.)
  • You cannot change the username after the item has been added to your cart.
  • This will also work for WallaBee items. Make sure you put in the appropriate username for each item.
