300 Attendee Event Badge!

I’m delighted to let you all know that a Munzee event hosted by rubik80 and spysmurf in Australia last week hit over 300 attendees! All attendees are being awarded this brand new badge:

There is also a new host badge for hosts hitting over 300 attendees.

Don’t forget there are also host badges for every 5 times you host. My current champion on that is Primdahl who has hosted over 50 times!

Munzee On!

You can purchase your MH-BOO Bash packages in the Freeze Tag Online Store.

Packages will be available for purchase at the event, but we cannot guarantee all items will be available.

Please purchase only one package per person who will be attending. Everyone must have at least the free package. If you have a joint account, please purchase a package for each person (they do not have to be the same type of package). Remember, even if you can’t make it to MH-BOO Bash you can deploy Virtual Munzees at the event locations. It’s still a bit early for the temporary virtuals but we will give you a reminder when that time approaches.

We can’t wait to see everyone for a scary good time!

*All locations and activities are subject to change before the event due to issues out of our control. We will update locations and information as soon as possible if this occurs.

Birthday Events Wrap Up!

Wow, thank you all for keeping me on my toes in July – if I wasn’t cycling up mountains I was busy working on all your events!

There were 77 birthday events across the world and the event indicator pins of those events were captured a total of 2963 times!

We gave away 3,108 new Emeralds that were deployed in new gardens all over the world.

I hope you enjoyed the events, I saw some really great artwork going out and was jealous of some of those cool badges! Thank you as always to Trish, I’m constantly amazed at the standard of her art and creativity!

Thank you everybody for your support with Munzee Events and Munzee On,

California Historic Location Munzees!

Hot on the trail of the release of the Florida Historic Munzees, we’re proud to announce that we have expanded that line to the golden state of California! Just in time for our FTHQ Birthday event, we’re excited for our great community of California players as well as any travelers that make it to the West Coast.

The CA Historical Location Munzees are deployed by an MHQ account throughout the state based on a database of historical markers. When captured, players will earn between 18 and 50 points. These virtual munzees are not blastable, so you’ll have to get out and learn a bit more about the golden state! If you notice any that are deployed in the wrong location please contact support with the name/URL of the munzee and correct information.

The CA Historic Location Munzees will hit the map at 00:01 MHQ Friday 7/20. You’ll be able to earn a new set of five badges for capturing CA Historical Location Munzees.

We plan to continue to expand this line of munzees into more states and different countries as well in the coming months. We are actively planning a worldwide line right now!

Good luck on your historical hunting! Munzee on!

Double Points and 14% Off Sale!

I guess this is why you shouldn’t gamble, huh?

Well our Global Goblet predictions didn’t exactly pan out, so unfortunately we won’t be celebrating with double points on virtuals. Lucky for you all though, we love a good third place match as well! Since England is playing in the 3rd place match we’ve made three items worth double points TOMORROW!

From 00:01 through 23:59 on July 14th there will be double points for all activity on Crossbows, Temporary Virtuals, and Water Mysteries.

We also have a sale in the Freeze Tag Online Store that begins NOW (15:00 MHQ) and will last until 15:00 on the 14th. Head to the store now for a 14% discount on Temporary Virts and Blast Caps!

Let’s all give three cheers for England and hope they win 3rd place because we might have more surprises in store if they do!

7th Birthday Sales!

In celebration of the seventh day of our seventh birthday we’ve got a variety of sales in the Online Store! You can view the collection HERE! 

Starting now you can get the following discounted items:

We’ve also got some new Personal Munzees for sale as well! You can currently purchase newly released Personal tags featuring the Clown Car birthday special, a Retro Munzee logo, and a Rover dog tag. We also have a limited amount of Flat Day The 13th tags just in time for Friday The 13th next week.

These are printed on aluminum dog tags, and are available now for $10 each. Remember that there is a very limited quantity of these personals, so you can only purchase one of each design per account.

Clown Car Birthday Specials

Welcome to Cirque Du Munz! Our Circus themed seventh birthday celebration is about to get a bit sillier. We’re happy to announce that Clown Car birthday specials will be rolling into a town near you!

Starting on July 6 at 00:01 MHQ 2,011 bouncing Clown Car icons will hit the map.  These colorful coupes will bounce on greenies every 6 hours or when capped. What’s a clown car without clowns though? Once a Clown Car special is captured, between one and three different clown icons will scatter on greenies within 1 mile for two hours. Since this is Munzee’s Birthday month all of these specials will last until July 31 at 23:59.

POINTS:

Clown Car
Capture – 77; CapOn – 11

Clown Scatter
Capture – 37; CapOn – 11

There just might be a badge or two for capturing Clown Car specials and the different Clown scatters. Since these will be on the map for the remainder of the month you might want to capture as many as you can. You never know what you might earn!

Clown Car specials will be attracted to Munzee Magnets so be sure to stock up on those in the Freeze Tag Online Store.

You CAN capture these specials on your own greenies and these will count toward the Specials Hunter badges as well.

As these jubilant jesters bounce across the world, remember to join in a Munzee event too! There’s a good amount of birthday events this weekend so check out the Event Calendar to find one near you!

Good luck on your harlequin hunting and Happy Birthday to Munzee! #MunzeeOn #CirqueDuMunz

July Birthday Reminders

UPDATE: England has advanced to the Quarterfinals! 

UPDATE II: England has advanced to the Semifinals! 

July is our 7th birthday month! This post is FULL of reminders and links so you can make the most of our birthday!

Our Flat Friends:

  • Flat Matt, Flat Rob, & Flat Lou will be on the map ALL month
  • Flat Matt & Flat Rob will be worth double points from 00:01 July 1 through 23:59 July 3
  • Flat Lou will be worth double points from 00:01 July 8 through 23:59 July 8 (just one day) as Louise races through the French Alps in L’Etape du Tour, an official stage of the Tour de France, several days in advance of the professional riders
  • Flat Lou & Flat Rob (Rob just added) will be worth double points from 00:01 July 29 through 23:59 July 29 (just one day) as they both participate in the Prudential Ride London 100 mile Bike Race

Clan Wars start July 3 at 00:01 — if you would like to join a clan for the first time or want to find a new clan you can use our Clan Randomizer button but it is only available from 00:01 July 1 through 23:59 July 2 so act fast!

The Global Goblet 😉 football tournament continues through the first half of the month. Our original favorite team, Germany, has already been eliminated. While our developer Daniel is sad, he’s happy to go ahead and program some other options to support our worldwide team. Guilherme is based in Portugal and we have Louise and Andy based in England. Rather than choosing one team, like we unwisely did the first time, we’ve chosen to support both. If both teams continue to advance the results will be cumulative on the given days.

Here’s what you can expect based on each countries path:

England has advanced to the Semifinals! 

  • If England advance to Quarterfinal quadruple points on greenies July 6 & 7
  • If England advance to Semifinal double points on ALL jewels July 10 & 11
  • If England advance to Final double points on ALL virtual munzees July 15

Portugal – Unfortunately Portugal has been eliminated.

  • If Portugal advance to Quarterfinal double points on RUMs July 6 & 7
  • If Portugal advance to Semifinal double points on ALL clan weapons July 10 & 11
  • If Portugal advance to Final double points on ALL physical munzees July 15

ALL ACTIVITY WILL BE IMPACTED, this means captures, deploys AND cap ons.
ALL TIMES ARE MHQ 00:01 – 23:59

Worldwide Birthday Events begin July 1. Please check the calendar to see if any are taking place near you! There is still time to add an event to the calendar later in the month if you’d like, but the time for custom artwork has passed. We hope you are able to join your local community and celebrate our birthday with us! Maybe even join our team here in Texas at MHQ, in California at FTHQ, or Matt and Daniel in Germany. We hope your events are more fun than a clown car filled to the roof with clowns.

Speaking of clown cars…
