In some countries school is already started, in others students are currently on holiday but returning soon. In honor of school and the importance of education we will begin a “Back to School” Special.
It’s a special icon, a badge, and even a special sale!

Munzee on!

As Munzee has grown over the years, the game has evolved in so many more ways than any of the co-founders could have imagined. We’ve certainly had our fair share of growing pains, but in its essence Munzee has tried to stick to its core goal of getting people out into the world. No one knows this better than those players who have been with us since the beginning. This week’s Player of the Week is Hazel Cutting (cuttingcrew).
![DSC_0250 [30454]](https://munzeeblog.s3.amazonaws.com/uploads/2016/08/DSC_0250-30454.jpg)
Who are you?
My name is Hazel Cutting, but on Munzee, I am better known as cuttingcrew.
Where in the world do you live?
In the historic city of Norwich, Norfolk, UK. There are many pubs and churches (there used to be a pub for everyday and a church for every week!), lots of shops, a Norman castle, 2 cathedrals and 2 Munzee clans in our area… plus a few of my virtual gardens 😀
How long have you played Munzee?
My first capture was on the 6th November 2014. It was Colegate (a place in the city … not the toothpaste!) by itsonlyme. I then went and followed the norfolktrails pink greenies at the time, by the end of the first day I had capped 87 points! Just under 2 years, but started my clan The Mighty Norwich City Clan in March 2015. I still take my daughter with me, and now, she is old enough to help me spot the munzees on our walks!
How did you find Munzee?![12376649_10153677049908003_5173555215824849342_n [30456]](https://munzeeblog.s3.amazonaws.com/uploads/2016/08/12376649_10153677049908003_5173555215824849342_n-30456.jpg)
Through norfolktrails. I went to the library and saw them outside promoting their Munzee trail…… that day I was hooked! Instead of the 45 minutes walk of the trail I walked 2 hours finding local deploys. I even got the odd virtual too!
What do you most enjoy about Munzee?
Finding new friends and people to meet! Meeting the president and Louise at our 4th Birthday event last year 😀 Also, the new game pieces to collect and deploy for others. Attending events and meeting other fellow inmates of the Munzee madness. Getting my entire family hooked on Munzee.. the latest being my niece! I love my rovers going on their long walks across the globe with other players – I have got them to level 11 so far. The seasonal specials, as I am writing this my husband has gone out to cap a present on one of mine near by.
What is on your wish list?
To win the lottery, then travel around the world capping and deploying – especially all the emerald pin gardens. Visiting the MHQ store and spending…. quite a bit! Mostly to attend more events around the UK and eventually more abroad too!
I also would love a 10 ft Lego statue of a red dragon…. just because dragons are awesome!
I wish there was another mythical nomad – a Phoenix, that like the Dragon Munzee is attracted to the Fire Mysteries or greenies.

Tell us about yourself:
I am a wife and mother to a small young lady (3 going on 13!).
I grew up on an Island in Essex, no palm trees, just sand, sea, shells and typical British wet weather. I moved up to Norfolk after meeting husband at an International Scout and guide camp. I used to do a lot of Guiding – from Rainbows to Senior section as well as music qualifications.
I am a nursery nurse (working with children) and a part time steward at events in the city.
I am an avid Terry Pratchett fan as well as the good old classics like Lord of The Rings, The Hitch Hikers Guide to the Galaxy …. my house has many bookcases bursting at the seams!
I love arts and crafts – I can often be seen knitting or sewing. I love up cycling scraps and turning them into something beautiful.
I love going out and exploring the city and other parts of the world. The furthest I have ever been is Venice or Detroit. I recently went to London again.
Other hobbies include:
I love playing and listening to music – clarinet and saxophone (grade 7 and 6 for these!) . I have recently spent every spare moment knitting my daughter a single bed size blanket – I have 2 months to go before her birthday to sew the squares together and sew on the decorations. As a family we often go to museums, parks, city events, steam railways, and once we have been to the sea where I grew up near by!
I love learning new things and cant sit still and do nothing.

Any last words?
Laugh and dance in the rain – its the only way to Munzee in the UK
cuttingcrew also included some socials, so cap away!

One of the most notably absent products in the Munzee Online Store has been merchandise that can often be found at MHQ or the Munzee Marketplaces. New apparel, such as the Lepricorn and Dragon shirts, have been added over time, but the apparel available online had never been fully encompassing. Now, we’ve taken steps to change that.
Now in the online store are Munzee hats, beanies, and socks (because who doesn’t love a good Unicorn sock, right?). We will be updating the store with new items and designs weekly so that you can show off your Munzee love in different ways!
We hope you like these new items!
Munzee on!

Badges are a large part of Munzee, and we love adding new and exciting ones to be earned. As you may have noticed, we launched five new badge lines this morning. These lines are for Virtual Resorts, RUMs, and Recycle Icons.
Virtual Resorts
Two lines of badges have been added for Virtual Resorts: one for capture and one for deploy. Each line currently has three badges associated with it and can be found along with Motel and Hotel badges in the app and on the website.
The badges in the capture line are awarded for renting a room in 25, 75, and 100 Virtual Resorts, respectively.
The badges in the deploy line are awarded for owning and deploying 5, 25, and 50 Virtual Resorts, respectively.
RUMs
Capture and deploy lines have also been added for the Reseller Unique Munzees (RUMs). There are also three badges in each of these lines.
The badges in the capture line are awarded for capturing 5, 10, and 25 RUMs, respectively.
The badges in the deploy line are for deploying 1, 5, and 10 RUMs, respectively.
There’s more in the works for RUM badges, so keep an eye out.
Recycle Icons
Last, but not certainly not least, we’ve added a line for the Recycle Special. These badges are for capturing 1, 50, and 100 Recycle Icons, respectively.
These have been just the beginning of new badges and lines to come. We’re excited to unveil them soon!
Munzee on!

The MunzPak team is always looking for ways to improve the experience of our subscribers. Over the past almost two years, that has varied from introducing MunzPak exclusive items to special pre-releases and beyond. Our number one goal, as with the other parts of the company, is to engage and excite our community. A large part of this goal is customer service. Our next step in this goal is giving you more control of your subscription.
On Friday, we will launch a new MunzPak central location. It will replace the current page: https://www.munzee.com/munzpak. If you are a current MunzPak subscriber, scroll down to the horizontal line in this post to learn about the new central page. If you are not currently a MunzPak subscriber, you will see a landing page similar to the current one.
When you click “Subscribe”, a payment confirmation will pop up.
Clicking “OK” will cause a pop-up window from the payment service Stripe for billing, shipping, and payment information. By default, shipping and billing information is marked as the same. If you have different shipping and billing information, please uncheck the box and input them separately so we can get your subscription to you in a timely manner. To continue, click “Payment Info”. Here, you will be asked to input your card information.
Clicking “Pay $15.00” subscribes you to MunzPak and takes you to the new central page.
From the Subscription page, you will be able to change your address, credit card, and email information. (Your email address is the same email associated with your Munzee account. Clicking “Update Email Address” will take you to your Munzee account settings.)
You can also cancel your subscription from this page. By clicking in the square surrounding your subscription, a prompt will pop up confirming cancellation.
There are a few things to note:
We hope these changes and additions make your MunzPak experience easier than ever! Remember this all goes live Friday, August 19, 2016.
Munzee on!
