And now…

October 2018 Clan Requirements, The Story

It’s September 28, 2018 at 15:05 MHQ Time, the October Clan Requirements have been released for exactly 5 minutes. There are shrieks of delight from some!

*Shriek*

There are groans of misery from others!

*Groan, mumble, mumble*

At MHQ Rob sits, drumming his fingers, watching “The Water Cooler” for some sign of acceptance or rejection of his latest attempt to entertain the masses. But today there isn’t a lot of chatter because the requirements were laid out in 3 formats, enough to please even the most detailed of players. At least that’s what Rob thinks. 😉

All around the world players start to communicate and choose what level they will aim for in October. Some shaking their heads because “THERE ARE NO EVENTS NEAR ME!” so I won’t be able to get the event indicator pins. Others saying they won’t be able to get virtual evolutions because they “JUST CAPPED THEM YESTERDAY WHEN THEY EVOLVED.”

Rob patiently waits for the complaints to become public so he can start reminding players that clans are like families, they help each other out. He thinks, clans are also like underwear, sometimes you have to change them – but he doesn’t say this out loud. He reminds everyone that each level is something to aim for with the higher levels designed to be more challenging and often not designed for a brand new player. It’s best for players to join the game, join a clan, figure everything out, accumulate some credits, buy some stickers, maybe even a Munzpak! 😉 *Shameless plug*

Anyway, one group of players that have played together for the last 27 clan battles decides they are going for LEVEL 5! They know it will be a challenge but they are up for it. One player in New York says they can deploy some of the Scatters needed, but not all 50. Two other players from Finland and Australia say they’ve got enough to help as well. A player from California chimes in and says they know of a prize wheel trail with 10 they can capture but it won’t be enough for the 125 required. One of the German clan members says they have a prize wheel garden just one town over so the prize wheel caps will be easy to get. They notice there are 2 specific requirements that are “per player” and decide to come up with a “battle plan.”

Several of them plan to use one magnet to get their 3 myth caps, others have “myths all over the place every day” and say it will be easy for them. One of the players from England says they are going to have to drive 3 towns up the M4 just to have a spot to deploy their 15 clan weapons because “there’s no room here for anything”. The others laugh because CLEARLY there is always room for one more! 😉

They notice it will take a total of 50 myth caps and 250 Clan weapons deployed to earn rewards at Level 5 and each vows to do their required portion “and then some.” The chat goes on for the next several hours with them discussing each requirement and how they will achieve it.

They compliment Rob, publicly, for finally giving three forms of displaying the requirements. After all, “The Time Is Now”. He’s sure there will be a few mistakes but has publicly vowed to fix them, as he always does, and also to ignore all questions, as he always does. 😉

So, before we close this story, a reminder to all…if it isn’t mentioned specifically then it’s probably excluded on purpose. And YES, CapOn points DO count in October!

Munzee On and Happy Clanning in October!

Meet Munzee Munday: Matt McCann

Here at Munzee we’re constantly encouraging our players to meet and greet and build the personal relationships that make this game so great. Over the next few weeks we’ll be showcasing members of Team Munzee so our players can get to know us a bit better. So each Munday (see what we did there?) check in to see a new member of Team Munzee and you decide if you trust the game in our hands. We may still call him The Intern, but this week’s Munzee Team member does far more than fetch coffee. Meet marketer Matt McCann!

Name and Title:
Matthew McCann, Business Development/Marketing

Where are you from?
I was born in Lake Havasu, Arizona and moved 4 times (California, New Mexico, and Kansas) before my family finally settled in Port Isabel, Texas when I was 6. I spent most of my life there before moving up to Dallas for college. I’ve been here for four years now.

Tell us about yourself:
Sports, craft beer, and technology are the things my life revolves around when I’m not in school (yes, I’m still attending UT Dallas) or at work. I love to travel, especially for sports, and I’m on a mission to visit all MLB ballparks. I also spend quite a bit of time binge watching movies and TV shows.

How long have you worked for Munzee?
About two months.

How did you find Munzee?
I actually knew Rob (President of Munzee) and TJ (VP of Operations and Marketing) from Allen Americans (our local CHL hockey team) games. We met before either started working for Munzee, and when they joined the Munzee team, I learned more and more about it. When I was looking for work earlier this year, I inquired with TJ, interviewed for the job and started work a week later.

What do you enjoy most about Munzee?
For anyone that’s been to MHQ or met members of the Munzee team, one thing is apparent: this isn’t just a job. The members of the Munzee team are invested in the game and players. We may have laid back attitudes, but our work is top priority. We do everything we can to make the game better and grow our player base.

What are some of your other hobbies?
Tying back into what I said earlier, sports and technology consume my life. I can usually be found watching a sport (baseball, soccer, and hockey are my favorites) in my free time. I also play on an indoor soccer team. I’m also a huge SciFi nerd. I love Doctor Who, Torchwood, and Superman. While I’m watching any of these things, I’m usually tinkering on my computer, phone, or tablet. I started learning coding (PHP, Java, and HTML/CSS) for fun. Music is my other passion whether it be listening, making, or editing. I treat myself to concerts when I can, and I’ve edited music for teams and individuals competing in dance competitions.

Famous last words?
“This is who I am, right here, right now, all right? All that counts is here and now, and this is me!” – The Doctor

Check back next week to get to know another member of Team Munzee!

Changes around MHQ

In July 2011, Munzee was born from the blood, sweat, and tears of 4 co-founders. Aaron Benzick, Scott Foster, Chris Pick, and Josh Terkelson took an idea from Aaron and released it to the world. Within months the game was worldwide and gaining players at a rapid rate. In June 2012, Rob Vardeman joined the team to work with the community and business relations. All members of Team Munzee worked as volunteers, nights and weekends, after working full time jobs during the day. Over the next year, as Munzee grew Josh and Chris stepped down in order to focus on family and their full time jobs. Additional team members have been added, both full and part time. The game continues to evolve and grow. This weekend a big change occurred as Aaron stepped down as President of Munzee, with Rob named in his place effective immediately. Rob is honored and excited to lead Munzee forward into the coming years. We are thankful to Aaron for leading Munzee to this point and appreciate the work he placed into this game we all LOVE so much! Thank you Aaron!
