October 2022 GOTM Winners

We began October finishing the last 2 days of our Around ZEE World Mailbox. In the middle of the week, we started our first ZEE-Dayz of the month, this time featuring Flat Friends and Flat Objects! Then on Friday we kicked off the first of our Halloween-themed releases, the Candy Crypt MOBs and Pumpkoins! On Saturday, Mari, Mick, and Tamara attended the Southern California October Munzee Monthly Event, where they got to comfortably catch up with players and take advantage of the double points period!

The next week was Rob’s turn to attend events — he was able to attend all 6 of the SC Munzee Jubilee 2022 events, even posting a quick video to check in! As promised, we had our second ZEE-Dayz during this time, featuring Greeting Cards since they are popular choices to deploy at events. We also released some new Halloween cards, and brought back some old designs from last year. The next day, we released the Count Calcula Mech, available for Pumpkoins, and more artifacts for the Candy Crypt MOBs!

This past week, we welcomed our new Queen Munzee, humbird7, and celebrated by deploying 100 Hummingbird tPOBs on her account! We also put out info on a Christmas Party Add-On for December Events, and had a successful app update featuring potential GPS fixes and In-App Map Links. Just yesterday, we went back into Halloween mode with NEW Myth SkeleSkins.

We are now happy to announce the winners of the October Gardens of the Month (GOTM)! The badges will be awarded by early November, but we couldn’t wait to share the winners we’ve chosen!

October GOTM

This month, as you’ve probably guessed, we’ve chosen gardens that bring the spirit of Halloween to the map! Remember that all winning GOTM organizers and all players who deployed in the winning gardens will be awarded special badges for their contribution to growing the map. This month we’re happy to award the Halloween in Ottawa garden, designed by Jeffeth, and the Hungry Bat ? Terry ? garden, designed by Rikitan, as our winning October GOTM! The gardens appear as follows:

Halloween in Ottawa by Jeffeth in Ottawa, ON, Canada

We love the scene Jeffeth designed to fit within his signature window frame! A Jack-o’-lantern and ghost lit from behind by an eerie full moon!

Here’s a note from the player who designed this garden:

I am excited for Fall, and for Halloween next month! I am also excited to see what Munzee has planned! This is my final window in my seasonal set here in Ottawa..spoooooky lol

We hope Jeffeth has been enjoying the Halloween-themed releases we mentioned earlier in this post, and that he’s looking forward to what we have planned for the rest of the month! If the design of this garden looks familiar, we previously chose his Christmas in Ottawa garden as one of last December’s GOTM! We thought it made the perfect partner to the other winner, as you’ll see below:

Hungry Bat ? Terry ? by Rikitan in Bratislava, Slovakia

Rikitan’s recommendation of placing Void Mysteries with Virtual Colors in a garden to catch the scatters is a great strategy that many garden designers employ. What other types do you like pairing with Virtual Colors?

Here’s a note from the player who designed this garden:

I wanted to create space (pun intended) for new species of virtual munzees – Void mysteries. They go well together with colored virtuals – for catching the scatters. Regarding design – combination of cute & dark always works well, so I went for a bat. For extra fun & story factor, I combine it with low battery and named whole thing “Hungry Bat Terry / Hungry battery”. You know, when you play Munzee out in winter season, your cell phone battery is exhausted very quickly!

We loved the punny name and design that Rikitan came up with! It’s simple but effective, fitting in perfectly with the Halloween theme but also making the garden unique and relatable — our devices do have to work harder when the weather is extremely cold!

All players who deployed in the respective winning gardens will receive the following special badges:

Rules for GOTM nominations:

  1. Garden must feature non-licensed character designs.
  2. The garden must feature a Garden Places Pin.
  3. The garden must be built using a publicly available spreadsheet which we will ask to be locked after being 100% deployed.
  4. We’re asking for ongoing nominations and we will release the winners throughout the year.

Based on your feedback, we’ve created a Google Form where you can submit GOTM nominations — here’s the link: https://forms.gle/SjUQeRxdi5FT81pCA

We’ll still check the iloveyou@munzee.com inbox for stragglers, but please try to send your submissions to this new Google Form instead. Keep in mind that we take all former nominations into consideration for upcoming months. Just be sure your garden follows the nomination rules in order to be considered eligible!

If you need help deploying in a Virtual Garden, you can check out this step-by-step tutorial that will making deploying in a garden easy no matter how long you’ve been playing. To fill in the gardens, make sure to stock up on Virtuals and Color Credits from the Freeze Tag Online Store.

Munzee on!

P.S. Are you looking for POTM requirements? Remember that last year, we announced that we were holding off on POTM for now as we develop a new way to highlight our unique player base!

Dress Up Your Myths with NEW SkeleSkins!

The bony artifacts of our ongoing Candy Crypt MOBs may have inspired this year’s Halloween skins — and while a skeleton is perhaps one of the basic Halloween costumes, we think the skins below are anything but — particularly for the many-headed Hydra, as you’ll see below!

SkeleSkins

Like last year’s Halloween skins, these skins are available in the Freeze Tag Store as a 3-Pack for $10! They will remain in the store until 23:59 MHQ on November 1st. You can shop them HERE!

SkeleUnicorn SkeleCyclops SkeleHydra
Landing Pads Landing Pads Landing Pads

If you don’t already own the base Myths, but are still interested in using these skins, you can shop them HERE, but keep in mind that the base Myth will also need to be upgraded in order to use the skin. If you haven’t upgraded your base Myth yet, you can purchase a Bouncer Upgrade Credit.

For more information on Skins, you can check out our Help Guide articles HERE and HERE.

Pumpkoins Week 3

As usual, the most up-to-date list of what’s available will be what you see on munzee.com/redeem, where the [Pumpkoins (Week X)] tab swaps out on 12:00 MHQ every Friday. So make sure to spend your credits each week!

We’ve also got a new SkeleSkin available in the Redeem Store in the [Pumpkoins Surprises] tab, for 25 PC. Like the Count Calcula Mech, it will remain available through 02:30 MHQ on Thursday, November 3rd (the expiration date we had set for Pumpkoins).

SkeleMermaid
Landing Pads

If you don’t already own the base Myth, but are still interested in using this skin, you can shop the Mermaid HERE!

Extended Myth Badge Lines

We mentioned earlier in the week that, as part of fulfilling our new Queen Munzee’s wishes, an extension to the Unique Myth Capture badge line (excluding the MythologiGals) and the Unique Modern Myth Capture badge line was in the works. As of this posting, the new badges are now live!

Unlike the Points in a Day badges, these will be fully retroactive.

We hope you enjoy seeing the SkeleMyths on the map, and that these badges will give you a new goal to shoot towards!

Munzee on!

Calculate Your Pumpkoin Balance with this NEW Mech!

In our first Pumpkoins post, we mentioned that another tab in the Redeem Store would appear later on. As planned, this tab contains items that will remain available through 02:30 MHQ on Thursday, November 3rd (the expiration date we had set for Pumpkoins) — so you don’t need to worry about them going away like the items in the [Pumpkoins (Week X)] tab (which swaps out on 12:00 MHQ every Friday)!

The main change you’ll notice is that this new tab is limited to Premium members only.

Currently there’s only one item in there right now, so here’s everything you need to know!

Count Calcula Details

Like the other Munzee Mechz, Count Calcula is a temporary POB that will remain on the map until it has been captured 5 times. At 12:00 MHQ today, it was made available in the Redeem Store in the [Pumpkoins Surprises] tab for 25 PC. If you decide to make the trade, a Count Calcula will be automatically deployed on your account at once! You will also receive the Blueprint to rebuild it when you have earned enough Cogs in the future.

Count Calcula
Points
  • Deploy: 678
  • Capture: 150-250
  • CapOn: 123-234
  • Nesting (5th Cap): 500
Landing Pads

You can find these toothy tools flying to the landing pads above every 6 hours or when captured.

Count Calcula will be available for multi-capture. That means players can capture a Count Calcula on their own munzees, any previously captured munzees, and more than once if the same Count Calcula visits you. Count Calcula is non-blastable. He will be attracted to both Physical Magnets and Virtual Magnets. You can access him by turning on your “All Expiring Specials” filter.

When a Count Calcula is captured, it will scatter up to 3 BATteries.

BATtery
Points
  • Capture: 50
  • CapOn: 25

These scatters will be visible to any player and will be deployed on the Mech owner’s account. This means that unlike Air Mystery Feathers/Boulders, there are CapOn points for the owner!  They expire after 120 minutes, have a capture radius of 300 feet, and you’ll be able to use Rover Treats to capture them as well. These scatters will NOT count for deploy streaks, ZeeOps, or clan activity since they are passive deploys.

Badges

Deploying a Count Calcula will earn you the corresponding Blueprint badge, which you can see below. There is also a badge that you can earn by capturing a Count Calcula — but since there’s only one badge in this line, we’ll keep it a secret for now.

Count Calcula Blueprints- Deploy 1 Count Calcula Munzee.

We hope Count Calcula makes math a little less scary!

Munzee on!

Changes to Joining a Clan

By now, you’ve probably seen at least one of the posts we put out earlier this month encouraging you to give Clan Wars a try! While we’ll continue to monitor your feedback on the Clan War Requirements, they aren’t the only things we’re looking to change and improve.

We want to ensure a competitive and fair battleground, so certain changes have been made regarding how players can join a clan. Moving forward players will only be able to join a clan until the 12th of each month. After the 12th you will be unable to join a new clan. When the 13th day of the month starts at MHQ it will be TOO late.

To help newer players take part in Clan Wars we’ll still allow accounts 90 days old and under to join all month long, but we still encourage solidifying your team by the 12th. We appreciate your understanding that these changes will benefit the integrity of Clan Wars as a whole.

As part of the app update that enforces this change, error popups have been added that will clearly show this new rule. That way, even those who haven’t yet seen this post should be aware of the new rule once they see the popups. This goes into effect October 13, 2022 – so be sure you join a clan BEFORE then if you are interested this month.

Munzee on!

Redeem Pumpkoins for Prizes!

You’ve heard of Candy Corn Credits, C04L Credits, Sham Rock Credits, and Painted Rose Credits — now get ready for Pumpkoin Credits! After reviewing the activity on Painted Rose Credits and making some improvements (we hope ?) we’ve created a new limited-time credit for you to earn and redeem!

Like Jewel Shards, Weapon Shards, and Cogs, you’ll be able to redeem Pumpkoin Credits (PC) at the Redeem Store for game pieces. However, like the past limited-time credits, they can only be redeemed until 02:30 MHQ on Thursday, November 3rd (when November Clan Wars starts).

How to Earn Pumpkoin Credits

Pumpkoin Credits can be earned from now until 23:59 MHQ on Monday, October 31st.

You can earn them the following ways:

Goodies You Can Get With Pumpkoin Credits

As usual, the most up-to-date list of what’s available will be what you see on munzee.com/redeem. Like the tabs for Painted Rose Credits, you’ll only be able to redeem items in the “Week 1” tab during Week 1, after which, only the “Week 2” tab will be visible until Week 3, and so on. So make sure to spend your credits each week!

The rewards/rates may change from time to time, but to start off with, this is what we have planned:

  • ALL Players:
    • 1 Fall Greeting Card: 1 PC, limited to 1 per non-Premium player, 5 per Premium player
    • 1 Wish I Was Here Greeting Card: 1 PC, limited to 1 per non-Premium player, 5 per Premium player
    • 1 Physical Magnet: 5 PC, limited to 1 per non-Premium player, 2 per Premium player
    • 1 Virtual Magnet: 5 PC, limited to 1 per non-Premium player, 2 per Premium player
    • 5 Cogs: 20 PC, limited to 1 per non-Premium player, 2 per Premium player
  • Premium Players:

However, you may see another tab appear later on, which will contain items that will remain available through the end of the month — this should appeal to those who are saving up!

We hope you enjoy cashing in these shiny new Pumpkoins!

Munzee on!

A Frightening Flat ZEE-Dayz!

While we announced our plans for a Greeting Card ZEE-Dayz well in advance, we didn’t want to leave this weekend out with nothing special going on!

ZEE-Dayz Bonus Details

From the period of Saturday, October 8th at 00:01 MHQ through Sunday, October 9th at 23:59 MHQ, enjoy double points on Flat Friends and Flat Objects!

Please note that Fancy Flats are excluded.

Friendly Reminders

Flat Friends/Objects are part of this month’s Clan War Requirements! To encourage more Clan War gameplay, we’ve moved requirements for specific munzee types, including those for Flat Friends/Objects, out of the Individual Requirements and into the Clan Requirements. We hope this allows your clan more flexibility in planning how to tackle each level!

We’ve also got quite a few events going on during this ZEE-Dayz! Don’t forget to check out the Munzee Calendar to see where you might like to deploy some munzees to get some capon points! While Greeting Cards are much easier to deploy due to their temporary nature, you may want to save them for the weekend of the 13th through the 16th as mentioned above. Then again, Greeting Cards are such a bargain, so you may decide to deploy both Greeting Cards AND Flats, if you can find the perfect spots on the map!

We hope you enjoy capping our flattened staff members this weekend!

Munzee on!

October 2022 Clan Wars Requirements

— 9/30/22 UPDATE — Level X (aka Level 6) requirements, rewards, and badge mention was added!

It’s almost October! As the 3-year anniversary of our big Clan Wars update approaches, we’ve taken some time to review the requirements we’ve set each month and your feedback on them as well! While we have bigger changes in the works, for now, we think you’ll be excited about the ones we’ve made for the upcoming month:

  1. Points per day requirements (i.e. “5 days must be at least 5,000 total points”) are only present in Level 5
  2. QRate requirements (i.e. “At least 3 Claimed QRates”) are only present in Levels 4 & 5

Additional conversations are taking place RIGHT NOW in our official Discord channel about hidden tasks and the use of Level X as an Elite challenge for top tier clans. We would love to hear your feedback on this topic (and so many more) at www.munzee.com/discord

As usual, you’ll find all the latest details to our clan requirements and rewards in the clan section of our app. There have been a few issues with activity not counting for some players in the opening minutes of the clan war. Please be sure to give our servers a bit of time to switch from Clan Wars OFF to Clan Wars ON. 🙂 This will ease frustration, just 10 or 15 minutes will make all the difference. We’re happy everyone is so anxious to get started on the 3rd of each month! In addition: Please do not change your clan membership for at least 2 hours after the month ends. The calculations are still being made and it could ruin your efforts.

It is possible that we could update clan requirements prior to October 3 and reserve the right to do so. The final requirements and rewards will always be shown in the app. Will we add something special for a Level X based on Discord feedback??? We’ll let you know if anything changes and update the blog!

October ClanPak

October Badges

Your Clan can earn monthly badges to earn for reaching distinct levels of Clan Wars each month. You won’t be able to earn a badge until the entire clan has reached the specified level. Since there is NO Level X this month, there will be a total of 5 6 badges available in October. The first badge will appear as follows:

Overall Clan Notes:

Please keep in mind Levels 4 & 5 are considered advanced gameplay and not recommended for brand new players. Be aware when allowing new players to join your clans. QRew/ZeeQRew status will be required for any clans earning levels 3, 4 & 5. See qualifications for ZeeQRew here. If you are not a member on October 1st you will not be able to qualify until October 15th. If you lose qualification before the 15th you will not be able to qualify until November 1st.

*Claimed QRates will not carry over from before the clan battle starts. The QRate must be found, opened, and claimed during the month of the current clan battle. This time period begins on the 3rd, same as the clan battle.

*All shards may be redeemed at https://www.munzee.com/redeem
Total points include Cap, Deploy, and CapOn of all types.
Reseller caps/deploys include all types of RUM/vRUM/reseller card but NOT reseller gnomes or any scatters.
Bouncer captures include any POB, MOB, or TOB (even the temporary POB).
Social and Personal will not count for Deploy requirements.
Social and Universal will not count for total Capture requirements.
Personal and Universal will not count for Physical points of any sort.

For complete information regarding Clan Wars, access our Help Guide!

Hints for how to play if your local map is looking a little bare:
Use the swap feature for brand new virtual deploys.
Use the online map to deploy virtuals worldwide or find gardens to deploy in on social media groups.
Watch the online store for sales during the month to help meet your goals.
Use evolution reset credits to get new CapOn points from OLD deploys (they do NOT count as new deploys)

And finally, be responsible. If your local government, your health, or any circumstances require you to Stay Home – DO NOT participate. It is up to each of us to determine what is safe and what is allowed. This is a game and not worth risking your own live or the lives of others.
Munzee on, stay safe and Play Your Way!

Requirements and rewards found in app are the final word. Please report any issues to Munzee support.
Play at your own risk, within the laws of your local area.

October 2022 Skin: Flaminghost

As the month comes to a close, we wanted to make sure you were heading into October with your desired Flamingos! The skin for completing your September capture streak (and the corresponding badge), which is the Oktoberfest Garden Flamingo shown below, will be awarded in early October. But, we couldn’t wait to share what’s in store for next month!

September Flamingo Reminders

If you haven’t picked up a Flamingo yet, they are available in the Freeze Tag Store for $4.

How to have a permanent Flamingo on your account next year:

  • Own at least 8 Flamingos by the end of the year
    • Each month, the price of a Flamingo will decrease by $1.
    • However, players can only purchase 1 Flamingo every 28 days.

Where to stock up on Flamingos if you missed out on earlier months:

  • Reseller Garden Flamingos include the base Flamingo AND the special Reseller skin — if you’re interested, you can check out our blog post on them HERE!

October Flamingo Details

What Flamingo Skin can you look forward to earning in October? The spooky Flaminghost! Like the other flamingos, the Flaminghost is a temporary POB that will remain on the map as long as players with permanent Garden Flamingos continue to use it.

Flaminghost
Points
  • Capture: 250
  • CapOn: 300
Additional Info
  • Available for multi-capture
  • Non-blastable
  • Attracted to both Physical Magnets and Virtual Magnets
  • Filters: “All Limited Edition Specials” and “All Expiring Specials”

As stated earlier, to earn this skin, you’ll need to complete next month’s (October’s) capture streak. Once the skin is awarded in November, you can change the skin on the flamingo to this one at any point — refer to our Help Guide article for the instructions!

You can find these frightening fowls haunting the following landing pads every 6 hours or when captured:

Additionally, the Flaminghost will scatter up to 3 NEW Spooky Feathers nearby when it is captured!

Spooky Feather
Points
  • Capture: 50 points
  • CapOn: 50 points

Like the other Flamingo Feathers, these scatters will be visible to any player and will be deployed on the Flamingo owner’s account. This means that unlike Air Mystery Feathers/Boulders, there are CapOn points for the owner! They expire after 120 minutes and have a capture radius of 300 feet. These flamingo scatters will NOT count for deploy streaks, ZeeOps, or clan activity since they are passive deploys.

Badges

As a reminder, Garden Flamingos have 4 associated badge lines:

  • Unique type deploy badges — you’ll need to earn each month’s skin by keeping your streak up!
  • Overall deploy badges — the more flamingos you deploy, the merrier!
  • Unique type capture badges — capture at least 1 of each skinned flamingo!
  • Overall capture badges — capture as many flamingos as you can find!

While we revealed images for the first of each badge line in the original post, we are happy to show you the “Unique type deploy” and “Unique type capture” badges associated with the Flaminghost:

We hope earning October’s Flamingo Skin doesn’t have you shivering in fear!

September 2022 GOTM Winners

It feels like our Around ZEE World journey so far has gone by so fast! We started the month with a simple ZEE-Dayz that awarded double capture points on Places, Historical Locations, and Iconic Locations. On the weekend, the first Around ZEE World Bash events took place, with Mari and Tamara making an appearance at the So Cal Sept Event!

The next week, we announced the winners of the Soap Box Derby, and then kicked off our next set of specials — this time, we tried something new and had them scatter a trail of munzees to follow, so you could have your own challenge to travel Around ZEE World! Other items of note: we kicked off our Discord launch with 7 days of giveaways, the Around ZEE World Mailbox received its first deliveries, and Rob and Lou made an appearance at the Westcliff September 2022 event.

The week after that, we posted a call for more volunteer translators, checked in on Dale & Barb’s road trip, and hosted a special Worldwide Sale, which included a NEW Pouch Creature and also NEW Greeting Cards suggested by you! On the weekend, Dylan appeared with special guest Matt at the Touchdown in KC event — although Matt is technically not part of the team anymore, it still felt right to create a Traveling Team Badge for him. After all, he has been one of the faces of Munzee for years, and clearly still enjoys meeting up with players!

This week, we’ve just released the latest Secret ZeeOp — but keep an eye out for more Around ZEE World content before the month is out!

We are now happy to announce the winners of the September Gardens of the Month (GOTM)! The badges will be awarded by early October, but we couldn’t wait to share the winners we’ve chosen!

September GOTM

This month, we’ve chosen gardens that highlight royalty Around ZEE World! Remember that all winning GOTM organizers and all players who deployed in the winning gardens will be awarded special badges for their contribution to growing the map. This month we’re happy to award The Queen’s Crown garden, designed by Spice, and the Zamek Piastów garden, designed by GRZYBACZE, as our winning September GOTM! The gardens appear as follows:

The Queen’s Crown by Spice in Weston-super-Mare, United Kingdom

This garden is certainly fit for a queen with all of the Virtual Jewels it’s composed of!

The nominator pointed out that this garden was dedicated to nuttynan, who is certainly a queenly presence in the Munzee community!

On a sadder note, we also couldn’t help but be reminded of the recent loss of Queen Elizabeth II, so this garden seemed like a timely choice for a GOTM winner.

Zamek Piastów by GRZYBACZE in Legnica, Lower Silesia voivodeship, Poland

This garden shows a castle that is fortified with many Crossbows and Catapults! We would guess that the real Zamek Piastów would have been fortified in a similar manner during Medieval times.

Here’s a note from the player who nominated this garden:

In my city (Legnica), there is a castle called “Zamek Piastów,” which means “Piast Castle.” It is one of the oldest castles in Poland.

For those unfamiliar with the word “Piast,” according to Merriam-Webster.com the word refers to “a member of the first dynasty of Polish rulers that ended with the death of Casimir III in 1370.” Going by the nominator’s words, this definition seems accurate, as it makes sense for one of the oldest castles in Poland to have been built during the 1st dynasty. If we ever get the chance to travel to Poland in the future, this is definitely one historical landmark we’d love to visit!

All players who deployed in the respective winning gardens will receive the following special badges:

Rules for GOTM nominations:

  1. Garden must feature non-licensed character designs.
  2. The garden must feature a Garden Places Pin.
  3. The garden must be built using a publicly available spreadsheet which we will ask to be locked after being 100% deployed.
  4. We’re asking for ongoing nominations and we will release the winners throughout the year.

Based on your feedback, we’ve created a Google Form where you can submit GOTM nominations — here’s the link: https://forms.gle/SjUQeRxdi5FT81pCA

We’ll still check the iloveyou@munzee.com inbox for stragglers, but please try to send your submissions to this new Google Form instead. Keep in mind that we take all former nominations into consideration for upcoming months. Just be sure your garden follows the nomination rules in order to be considered eligible!

If you need help deploying in a Virtual Garden, you can check out this step-by-step tutorial that will making deploying in a garden easy no matter how long you’ve been playing. To fill in the gardens, make sure to stock up on Virtuals and Color Credits from the Freeze Tag Online Store.

Munzee on!
