Newz from the Prez

I wanted to take a few minutes and update everyone on several issues we are facing. The first is the release of iOS 9 and our subsequent blog post about how it would effect the use of our app. We appreciate the patience of our Apple phone using players as we patiently wait for version 3.0.2 to be approved by Apple. The second issue has been our announcement of removal of our 2.x apps from Google Play and the App store on October 1st. Many suggestions have been made about alternatives, however several core components to the app were due for renewal from their providers. With the release of 3.0 and the new core components the time was right to cut off the other services. We realize both of these issues are not optimal for our worldwide players but we are working to come up with the best solutions possible. To help ease some of the pain we’ve come up with something fun for all players! 🙂

As a thank you to our loyal players we are opening up the prize vault this weekend. From 00:01 September 18 until 23:59 September 20 you will have a chance to win random prizes from MHQ (all times are MHQ based, GMT -6). These prizes will be added to your credits or your undeployed list. Every capture and/or deploy during this time has a chance to earn you a prize so get out there and Grow the Map or paint the town red! Prizes include virtuals, mystery virtuals, virtual colors, motels, aquamarines, diamonds, rubies, and even blast captures! We wish you good luck and hope you spend some time this weekend with Munzee, family, and friends.

In addition we’ve also lowered the price on several products in the store for the weekend, starting at the time of this blog post. Check out the special deals here.

Thanks for your patience during our time moving forward with the new 3.0 version of Munzee. I can’t wait for you to see what else we have in store for you during this year of New Perspective.  — Rob

Munzee 3.0 is Here!

This past year has brought quite a few changes in the Munzee Universe. Not only has Team Munzee grown but we’ve also grown our company to include new apps and ventures. Through it all, we never lost track of our core. Our company, and family, is built on the Munzee app and community. We’ve spent an extremely large amount of time and energy planning, designing, building, and refining the Munzee 3.0 update, and now, we’re ready to release it to the world.

The Munzee 3.0 app is not just an update, but a complete redesign intended to improve the experience for you, the player. Some of the changes include:

  • No more Home Screen. Loading the app now takes you to the most important screen, the map!
  • A new profile page that provides all of your information in one place
  • An improved messaging system that provides real-time communication and notifications
  • An in-app leaderboard section that provides detailed and up-to-date information

We’ve added many new premium features to this fancy app as well.

  • Removal of ads – can be turned on/off under settings in app
  • ADVANCED FILTERS
  • Multi User Login (up to 3 users)
  • Daily Leaderboard with almost real-time stats
  • Upgraded options to show up to 2000 munzees on map
  • Titles
  • Ability to add pictures at location of Munzee (upcoming badge series to be earned)

In order to give more people access we are lowering the price of the premium membership until 11:00AM September 4, 2015 from $30 to $23. This is limited to a one-year renewal or brand new premium account purchase only. If you area already a premium member it will add one year to the end of your current membership. Purchase a premium membership in our online store at https://store.munzee.com/Premium-Member-Subscription.html ***Apologies to MunzPak subscribers, August coupon will be disabled this time, but will be extended through the 6th. ONE TIME USE ONLY ON COUPON***

iOS users will see Munzee 3.0 as an update in the App Store over the next 1-24 hours. Android users will see Munzee 3.0 as a NEW app in the Google Play Store. We will be removing the current Munzee app from the Google Play Store. If you experience any issues please email support@munzee.com with all details.

Last, but not least, we’d like to thank everyone who helped and was involved with Beta testing the Munzee 3.0 app. Your feedback was extremely important in making the app what it is.

We hope you enjoy Munzee 3.0! Grow the map!

Munzee Player of the Week: Sean Miller

Our players have chased down his socials all over the web.  And like a super-hero, he’s chased each of you down and reached out to support Men’s Health with Virtuous Virtuals all over the globe.  Always helpful and always smiling, this week’s Player of the Week is player batmanandrobin!  Successfully blending the world of Munzee with the world of Music Entertainment with Coxillah.com, Sean Miller can be found at a moment’s notice offering help to his fellow players and engaging our online community with a positive attitude.  He’s received the highest number of independent player nominations from the Munzee community, and we’re happy to highlight him!

batmanandrobin

Who are you? 

batmanandrobin aka Sean Miller and Sarah Hitsman

Where in the world do you live? 

Petoskey/Rochester Hills Michigan

How long have you played Munzee?

2 years

How did you find Munzee? 

When my girlfriend and I started dating to keep our relationship going and keep us doing things together we would go on road trips throughout Michigan. One day we ended up in Mackinaw City and I had remembered where a previously found geocache was and we found a qr code attached to a sign near where the cache was supposed to be. We quickly downloaded and never looked back.

What do you enjoy most about Munzee?

I enjoy how it forces me outside of my house and gives me something to do. I also love how I have been able to meet players from around the state and even some from outside.

What is on your wish list?

Most of the things I really wanted to see have come out for me to enjoy, so right now I am very content with the game.

Tell us about yourself!

I used to start playing with my girlfriend but she has since somewhat lost interest in the game. Our real names are Sean Miller and Sarah Hitsman. I am a Junior in college at Oakland University and am a journalism major with a music and world music minor.

My main project I have been working on is my website Coxillah.com (visit and you may find some socials). The theme of the site can best be described as a sort of “Rolling Stone” and also does review and PR work for independent musicians.

My last ongoing project is my music. I have multiple songs in the works involving mainstream music elements and other world music aspects including Afro-Cuban, different African elements and some others that will hopefully combine into a great musical project that can help me pursue my dream as a mainstream musicians making a living off my music.

As a little shout-out to Sean, he’s provided us with a Social he’d like to share with the entire Munzee community:

coxillah social

Do you know a player that inspires you, or does their part to grow the world of Munzee?  Know a Munzee super-hero, or maybe just someone that makes you smile?  If so, send us a message at iLoveYou@Munzee.com with their name, player name, and your info as well!

Undeployed Munzees – An Update for our players

We’ve listened to feedback from many of our premium members regarding the new Undeployed cap rules announced earlier this month.  As a mobile game company, we want our players to enjoy all aspects of the game, including Munzee deployment!  Without you, how would we grow the map?

The decision has been made to create a new cap limit on Undeployed Munzee for our Premium members.  Premium members can now hold up to 250 Undeployed in their Undeployed List.  Since our players are supporting us with their Premium memberships, it’s fair to provide Premium members a larger library of Undeployed Munzee.

Our basic player accounts are limited to 100 Undeployed Munzee.  For basic accounts and premium members that require a larger amount of Munzee, check out the Munzee store online for our Generic 1″ Munzee stickers.  Generic Munzee codes aren’t linked to your player account, so you don’t have to worry about your Undeployed List.  Our Generic stickers are the most convenient method to deploy large quantities of Munzee when necessary.

As we grow, it’s important to continually hear constructive feedback from our player community, and we appreciate the feedback we’ve received so far!  If you’ve got suggestions for us, feel free to contact us directly!

September Clan War Weapons!

September will be a special Clan War Month!

Team Munzee will reward your clan with weapons when you achieve certain levels of play.

Rules:

  1. Your clan must be full (10 players) to qualify for weapon rewards.  No partial clans will qualify.  Visit the forum to recruit additional players if needed.  A separate forum account is necessary to interact.
  2. Munzee Code of Conduct applies to all players.  No “phantom” accounts or multiple accounts for only one real person.
  3. All members of your clan must reach the point level in order to earn the reward for the entire clan.
  4. Rewards will be sent via email to each member of your clan.
  5. Individual weapon rewards will not be available.  Entire clan or none.
  6. Clan weapons will be calculated and dispersed via email nightly at Midnight MHQ time.

Weapons:

          Brass knuckles, Munzee mace, Munzee longsword, and “The Chuck”.  Function of weapons will be explained via email when earned by entire clan.  🙂  Believe me, you will want them!

Levels:

  • Brass knuckles will be awarded when each member of your clan reaches at least 100 points.  This is not a cumulative total.  It is based on each individual in your clan earning 100 points or more.
  • Munzee mace level will be announced when the first clan earns the weapon.  If no clan has achieved this level by September 6th we will update this post.
  • Munzee longsword level will be announced when the first clan earns the weapon.  If no clan has achieved this level by September 11th we will update this post.
  • The Chuck level will be announced when the first clan earns the weapon.  If no clan has achieved this level by September 15th we will update this post.

Team Munzee wishes you the best of luck in the upcoming clan war! Grab some clan mates, get out there, and grow the map!

Chuck Munzee2

May the odds be EVER in your favor.
