Ice Mystery DOUBLE Points Days and New Update!

Spring is on the way! Or at least it is over here at MHQ. (You’ll just have to play along if you’re still experiencing the Polar Vortex or if you’re Down Under.) To fully prepare, help us melt the ice with our Ice Mystery Munzee double points days announcement!

Ice Mystery

From March 20 at 00:01 MHQ time through March 24 at 23:59 MHQ time, all points for any activity on Ice Mystery munzees will be double! And this isn’t the only good news…

Ice Mystery Updates

These double points are arriving at an optimal time, since we have also decided to make some adjustments to our current Ice Mystery system. When captured, the Ice Mystery “freezes” three greenies within 2,500 feet. These will stay frozen for two hours or until capped, whichever comes first.

frozen greenie

Capping these frozen greenies will soon result in one of two updated outcomes:

There is a chance that you “thaw” the frozen greenie. If you do, you earn 50 Capture points and the owner of the host greenie earns 10 CapOn points. This outcome remains the same as it previously was.
The other outcome delivers a double update! If you get frozen, your screen will turn blue, and you cannot play for 30 seconds, instead of the previous 1 minute ban. In addition, you will now earn 100 points for being frozen! Turns out a little frostbite is not so bad after all!

These updates are effective beginning March 20 at 00:01 MHQ time.

We have a very limited supply of Ice Mystery Munzees in the Freeze Tag Online Store, available for $10 for FIVE Ice Mystery Munzees. Fortunately you can also pick them up from resellers too, so stock up before March 20th to make the most of your ICE days!

Points

If you need a little refresher, Deploying an Ice Mystery Munzee earns 50 points, while Capture/CapOn is a sum of 60 by multiples of 5 with a minimum of 10 points. For example, if Capture = 45 points, CapOn = 15 points.

Remember that the double points will run in conjunction with the newly updated points system! This means that all Ice Mystery Munzees AND frozen greenies capped or deployed from March 20 through March 24 will be worth double points at our new point values. It might prove highly beneficial to get a little frosty, so don’t fear the cold!

Badges

Existing badges will continue to be awarded for Capture, Deploy, and Being Frozen. There are a total of nine badges you can earn. The first in each category appears as follows:

: Ice Pick – Capture 1 Ice Mystery Munzee

: Igloo Builder – Deploy 1 Ice Mystery Munzee

: Frostbite – Get Frozen 1 Time

Will you help us thaw the ice? Pick up your ice Mystery Munzees today!

Munzee on!

Mark Your Calendars for Shamrock Point Updates!

The luck of the Irish is certainly with you this month, as we decided to announce the Shamrock Munzee point update early! That’s right, if you’re not too busy drinking green beverages, there will be some extra points to earn for this festive holiday.

Starting at 00:01 MHQ on March 17, all points for Shamrock Munzees will be increased. You can find the new point values below, but you can also pick up Shamrock stickers from resellers to prepare for St. Paddys! Please note that Shamrocks are currently exclusive to resellers, so the Freeze Tag Online Store does not have any available.

Points

Deploy: 100
Capture: 51
CapOn (Host): 51

And that’s not all! In honor of St. Patrick’s Day, from 00:01 to 23:59 MHQ time, all activity on Shamrocks will be worth double points! Yes, you’re reading this correct. You will be earning double points on the newly updated point values! Remember that Shamrocks are physical munzees, and they attract a variety of Bouncers as well, so be sure to stock up!

This point update is a real pot of gold! Stay tuned for more possible holiday fun as the month goes on.

Munzee on!

Feb Badges and March POTM Requirements are Ready to Roll!

Did you spot a new badge earned this week? Our February POTM criteria rewarded over 1,500 players who have captured and/or deployed daily for over a year. A big thanks to all of you for helping us grow the map! You truly are super beasts!

Now that February has concluded, it’s time to move on to our March POTM requirements. Some of you may have already figured out this month’s theme based off our social media posting, but for those of you unaware, March POTM will be selected based off of hksfarm’s Monthly Munzee Giveaway video contest! Our good friend (and super Munzee Support specialist) Daniel Hammock will be rewarding select players this month based off of creativity in his video contest.

Although some winners of the monthly contest are selected at random, others are personally selected by Hammock based on creativity. The creative winners will win the title of POTM in March and the subsequent POTM badge. A number of players have already received the title of March POTM due to Hammock’s selection for February videos. February’s theme was Munzee Love, so we’re showing those winners some love and awarding their badges today! Our winners thus far, as well as their videos, are listed at the end of the article!

The theme for March’s video contest will be videoing a Munzee at a fitness club or gym. How will you show off your creative cardio? The creative portion of the video contest will have open submission up until March 15 at midnight MHQ time, after which Hammock will be choose the final winners for POTM. The monthly contest will continue until the last day of the month if you’d like to still submit your video for the chance to win his giveaway. Just be sure to have your creative video in by 3/15 at 11:59 pm MHQ time to be eligible for March POTM! Don’t forget to stop by the hksfarm’s Facebook page to read about video terms and guidelines.

Remember that anyone who earned the Player Of The Week badge previously IS able to earn the Player Of The Month badge as well! The criteria for Player Of The Month changes, so even if March isn’t your month, there’s always April! Some months will require player nominations, while other months the winners will be chosen based off of stats or other factors.

Now stop sitting around— it’s time to hit the gym and get started on your video submission!

Good luck, and Munzee On!
