Seemyshell (00:01.962)
Welcome to the Official Munzee Podcast.

Rob (00:04.339)
I'm Rob, also known as Coach V, your host and the president of Munzee.

Seemyshell (00:08.538)
I'm Craig also known as Seemyshell. I'm an avid Munzee player, and I'm here to explore the game further

Rob (00:13.987)
Each week we'll delve into Munzee's mysteries divulge some secrets and inform players from around the world just what is coming your way.

Seemyshell (00:20.866)
So sit back, relax as today's episode, we'll talk about the madness that is coming up, some sand sculpting as well, and of course the new clan requirements. Rob, Rob. You've stirred up a little bit of a pot there with the new clan requirements, mate. Nice job, nice job. Ha ha ha.

Rob (00:40.332)
I am so happy. I'm so excited. We you know, those claim requirements went live after we recorded last week and everything that I was hoping for. Yeah, that's what happened. So that is super cool.

Seemyshell (00:43.682)
Hehehehe

Seemyshell (00:48.963)
Mm-hmm.

Seemyshell (00:54.154)
Yep, yep, mate, I felt like a mushroom, you know, being kept in the dark and fed, you know what, but anyway. Yeah. Exactly. See, see, see. Mate, don't worry. What's what he been up to you. You're in California now. I see. Yeah.

Rob (00:58.423)
Mm-hmm, yeah, that's you.

Rob (01:06.739)
Yeah, yeah. So bounced out to California ready for the Muncie Madness 13 events. Those are going on this weekend. You're headed here to join me soon and we'll have a little bit of fun before the madness kicks in for the weekend.

Seemyshell (01:11.171)
Mm-hmm.

Seemyshell (01:15.585)
Correct

Seemyshell (01:21.038)
Wow, wow, well, yeah, my I'm looking forward to it. Absolutely looking forward to it as well. What's Lou up to at the moment as well? Is she around as well?

Rob (01:29.239)
Lou is guess what out on her bike. So yeah, you know, we travel places and She goes along with me depending on what's going on when we go to these places she travels with her bike and I Work during normal work hours and she bikes during normal work hours depending on what's happening. Yeah, so

Seemyshell (01:32.382)
Of course, you see.

Seemyshell (01:39.598)
Mm-hmm. Yeah, yeah, yeah.

Seemyshell (01:48.646)
Yep. Ha ha ha. No, that's fair enough, that's fair enough. So she's out and about on her cycle seat. So it's true what they say about the flat Lou. It is literally true. Like she's on the bike, you know, a lot of the time. So there you go. Exactly. Well, mate, I've just driven from Alabama into Texas at the moment as we speak. And it's true what they say about things are bigger in Texas. I came into this local park here. Now Rob.

Rob (02:02.987)
she is so much. Yep. So what are you even up to?

Rob (02:12.643)
Yee-haw!

Seemyshell (02:18.278)
I need local parks with open sky area for my starlink, right? And I come into this open park and it was beautiful. I thought this is really nice, you know, but the lawns have just been mowed. So I'm thinking, well, there's not gonna be any more mowing of lawns for the podcast, which is good around me. I get out of the car, Rob, and everything is bigger in Texas, including the mosquitoes. It was the size of my palm. So, yeah, I know, right? I know.

Rob (02:42.06)
Yeah.

that...

Seemyshell (02:45.546)
So I sprayed on my stuff and whatever and yeah, away I go.

Rob (02:49.335)
That's Texas for you, but specifically the part of Texas that you are in, like far south Texas, mosquitoes are grown in order to carry, you know, grown men away. Yeah.

Seemyshell (02:57.459)
Yeah.

Seemyshell (03:01.526)
Yeah, exactly. I'm just sort of what are you, Southeast of Houston actually at the moment as we speak. But more importantly, Rob, I actually held an event, the only event in the world, and I'm proud to say that too, last Friday at the Alabama, almost at the Bama Rama event. But Rob, I've got a special prize, a special announcement for you that I don't think you know about.

Rob (03:15.108)
Yeah

Rob (03:25.731)
Cool. OK.

Seemyshell (03:28.002)
So there was, I had 10 people at my event. So 10 attendees, which was pretty cool. Okay. There was like five that didn't show up at all because they were out playing other geolocation based games. But Rob, the president, the head honcho of Bama Rama, the geocaching mega who hasn't played Munzee in seven years turned up, re-downloaded the account, reactivated his account.

Rob (03:49.627)
Wow.

Seemyshell (03:54.07)
got into his account and started capping with us as well. We did the walk around, even though it was raining, we still managed to do the walk around, get 10 flags, you know, and, you know, get the badges as well. So the special badges as well for that, as just, just for those 10 people, special badge for 10 people in the entire world. That's it. No one's going to get that badge again. I like that. Yeah.

Rob (03:54.295)
Wow.

Rob (04:02.628)
Yeah.

Rob (04:13.611)
No, that's true. That was a cool looking badge. I saw it come through and was like, wow, that's pretty impressive. So yeah, congrats. Well done on hosting your second event. Bringing the bringing a player and who knows maybe even a few others, you know, back from back into playing. So it's good stuff. That's right.

Seemyshell (04:20.888)
Mm-hmm.

Seemyshell (04:24.779)
Thank you, mate.

Seemyshell (04:29.362)
Yeah. Back from the brink. And he did cap my referral, but he was already more than 10 in. So I was like, no, damn. It is what it is.

Rob (04:38.955)
Yeah, yeah. If he played in Alabama seven years ago, he would have had a lot of Munzees to choose from.

Seemyshell (04:47.558)
Yeah, exactly. Exactly. So, anyway, let's get a start on this, let's crack on with this event. I was gonna say event again, geez. I got events on my mind, Rob, because we only had the one event, of course, in Alabama last week, and then there were leaderboards over the weekend that were a little bit lower than normal because there's no double points, you see. So on Friday, we had Team Cycle Path on 247,000 points, which is still a good point value.

Rob (04:57.509)
Yeah.

Seemyshell (05:14.562)
Muns prof again, bridesmaid as he loves at 144,000 and Schmitz fam 4 at 129,000 points. On Saturday we had...

Rob (05:14.625)
Mm-hmm.

Rob (05:26.115)
W. Helen at 152,000, Schmitzvam 435,000, Coal Cracker 7 at 120,000.

Seemyshell (05:27.094)
Hehehehe

Seemyshell (05:35.286)
And Sunday we had Finns at 457,000 points. Good job Finns. Humbert 7 at 404K and then Finns 2LR at 332K. So there you go on Sunday. So Rob, this isn't in the podcast, in the show notes. I'm not sure Humbert, 7 and Whelan, what are they doing? They're bouncing back and forth. You know, good to keep it. It is a good dance between the king and queen. I like it.

Rob (05:55.535)
and wheeling.

It's a dance, man. Yeah.

Seemyshell (06:04.099)
I really do enjoy it.

Rob (06:04.239)
So knowing about Humbert sevens work schedule, you can see some of the timing of when her bounce back up the leaderboard or when she closes the gap. It's pretty cool to see kind of her timing. But yeah, I don't have enough time to just sit and watch them all day every day. But if you were to tune in, you would see a balance that happens around a work schedule.

Seemyshell (06:27.078)
No.

Rob (06:33.723)
Pretty cool.

Seemyshell (06:34.45)
Yeah, yeah. Well, I just saw, I, again, I don't look at it every single day, but I looked at it the other day and there was like less than 10,000 points difference between them, 10,000 points. And for them 10,000 points is like an hour of play. Yeah.

Rob (06:46.623)
Yeah, no doubt it truly is and I haven't seen the I haven't seen it cut down nearly that close. So that's pretty cool

Seemyshell (06:54.874)
Yeah, that was really awesome. Anyway, my current events this coming weekend, of course, you and I and Lou and a lot of others as well are gonna be in California. There's a few events in California for the MM13. MM13, what's MM stand for, Rob? Is it Munzee? Madness. Oh wow.

Rob (07:09.784)
Yeah. Munzee Madness 13. This is the 13th year. They're the only event that's been around from the very beginning. Yeah.

Seemyshell (07:19.45)
Wow, we've got two in Florida as well. One in Missouri, Ohio and Arizona. The California ones actually do have over 50 on goings at the moment listed. So that's pretty cool. Yeah.

Rob (07:31.315)
Yeah, really great. And out there in the world, we've got one in Ontario and one in British Columbia and Canada. We have one in Netherlands, one in Victoria, Australia, and there's also the two events that we've been talking about, uh, that are going on in England. And the one in the Midlands is at 46. Um, I'm going so, uh, yeah. Uh, pay attention to the calendar everyone.

Seemyshell (07:38.401)
Mm-hmm.

Seemyshell (07:53.253)
Oh.

Seemyshell (07:58.686)
Just delete, you know, Rob, they're starting up low-moving again. Anyway, what? I, I.

Rob (08:01.747)
Oh man. And what that great, isn't that lovely? We're going to have a little bit of extra noise everyone, but that's all right. Just tune into the lovely tones that are see my shells voice instead.

Seemyshell (08:07.734)
But no, thank you.

Seemyshell (08:14.462)
I can try, I can try and get it out. So I'll just edit eight minutes there. So this for my own sake. All right.

Rob (08:18.762)
Okay, my Wi-Fi keeps jumping.

Seemyshell (08:23.278)
That's all right. Okay, don't forget Rob as well. We've got some large events coming up in ACT Australia, March 30, 27, we'll attend so far. Nottingham, England on April 6, 39. Minneapolis on May 10th to 12th, 31 so far. That's slowly growing them for the Munzee Mania and Hampshire in the UK, June 14 to 16 and 22 so far for that. And again, that is growing slowly as well. If you're a host of a growing event and we haven't noticed you yet, please reach out and let us know, Rob. So.

What's coming up this week Rob? What's on this week? Well tell people what's going on this week.

Rob (08:56.675)
Well, let's talk about the one thing that's happening first, which is Double Points Weekend. So we've got double points on cards, temps, flats, greenies, and virtual colors that is happening Friday through Sunday.

Seemyshell (09:01.938)
Mm-hmm.

Seemyshell (09:10.222)
There you go. So make sure if you can't get to Munzey Mania 13 or any other event, just post cards on those events and you will get double points for other people capping your cards as well. Munzey Monthly Moments has begun, Rob, for March as well. I did an announcement, Rob, I did an announcement live just before my event on the Friday. And I had Minnesota Boy with me as well. He was actually a winner for February, one of the winners, one of the two, along with K4Kman. I think those two videos.

Rob (09:24.835)
Yeah!

Seemyshell (09:39.83)
They were like, they were, you know, total opposite of each other. K for K Man was talking about being single and what's it like being single in, in terms of what do you call it Valentine's Day. And yet he's Minnesota boy happily married for years and years and years and years and years. So there you go. But yeah, polar opposites. And it's true what we say, like, we do enjoy all aspects of videos. Get your videos in guys, this month we're talking.

Rob (09:43.192)
Yeah.

Rob (09:53.691)
Yeah, yeah, they were both great videos, but you're right opposite polar opposites on them. Yeah

Seemyshell (10:06.21)
dragon themed and you can see a lot of dragon bounces are bouncing around the map at the moment. So what you need to do is a video yourself capping a dragon of some sort, whether it be a physical Munzee or a virtual Munzee as well. You can cap and show your capping and make sure you upload it then to the Munzee Monthly Moments YouTube channel. Well not YouTube channel, what's it called? Discord? No, Discord? No, what's the one sandbilt? It's like a cup of Z thing.

Rob (10:30.88)
Mmm.

Rob (10:35.291)
Yeah, just a website basically. Competition? Contest page? I don't know. I don't know.

Seemyshell (10:36.27)
What would you call that, Rob?

Seemyshell (10:44.939)
Contest page, that sounds good. That sounds good. Contest page that will do. Geez, you can tell. This is a very professional show, Rob, just saying. Um.

Rob (10:54.133)
It's almost like it's a Monday morning, but it's not. It's just a morning.

Seemyshell (10:58.446)
It's just the morning exactly. I don't even had my coffee, Rob. I can't believe it. But people don't understand, Rob, just for entering a video, you get prizes, just for entering. Even if it's just, you get a special badge. Again, it's only those people who enter, get that badge for that month. And so, you know, 29 people enter, there's 29 badges. That's it, for the rest of the world. So you're one of 29 compared to the rest of the world. So if you love your badges, get in your Munzee Monthly Moments video for March ASAP.

Rob (11:01.903)
Hehehe

Rob (11:27.355)
Let's do it. Well, let's see. We've got the sand sculpting specials and they end on Sunday the 10th. So those have been bouncing around for 52 days. Did you get them all?

Seemyshell (11:28.053)
Rob, what else is happening mate?

Seemyshell (11:33.687)
No.

Seemyshell (11:41.759)
No, no, these ones, these ones I found a little bit more difficult for some degree as opposed to the ones previously when you had those, what do you call them, those real Halloween ones. And I'm moving my hands like I'm a zombie for some reason thinking this is actually a video. It's not. Yeah, the Halloween ones I found easier than what these sand sculpting ones were. I'm not sure the reason for that, but I just found them a little bit harder. That's also, I'm missing five.

Rob (11:53.935)
Oh yeah.

Rob (11:59.354)
Hehe

Seemyshell (12:09.41)
are the green ones and two of the red ones. So yeah, I think the green are the physical and the red are the virtuals.

Rob (12:16.799)
I just made it to like level two on the virtual ones, which I assume are red. So yeah, I haven't been able to cap as many either. And I would like to blame it on something that matches for both of us, which is not one stable, like here's my home base, so that you're basically watching and seeing things that are popping up like right there around you in like a normal pattern, like you might have been back in October.

Seemyshell (12:41.9)
Mm.

Rob (12:45.975)
And the same thing for me, because I bounced around quite a bit January, February. Yeah.

Seemyshell (12:46.571)
Yeah.

Seemyshell (12:50.134)
Maybe that's what it is. That makes sense. See Rob, you're a smart man. That actually makes sense. Yeah, I'm, cause I'm not capping Skylands cause there's no Skylands when you travel really. Let's be honest, unless you just happen stands to, you know, drive upon one, but yeah, there's not really any Skylands or tree houses, that sort of thing. So unless you're in a park somewhere and you've got a few magnets to magnetize the greenies and stuff, then you're not going to get stuff. So, but yeah, yeah. Anyway, that's the reason. All right, Rob.

Let's talk clan requirements because there's been some chatter on the discord and the Munzee water cooler as we said just before. What do you what do you think about the actual clan requirements what has been said that sort of thing.

Rob (13:33.849)
I think that climate requirements are fun again. I think that I had a good time putting them together and that's kind of what I said last week and so from that, hopefully everyone else was feeling like some of the same vibe which is there's something fresh, there's something new and now you can see...

all the madness that I had in store and because I only leaked like two of them to you last week and

Seemyshell (14:02.934)
I know, I know, you kept a lot from me Rob and I was very disgruntled by that I'm thinking to myself. He doesn't trust me to keep my mouth shut. But I think you wanted to surprise me too, that's what it was.

Rob (14:10.209)
You know what?

Rob (14:14.603)
And here's the struggle that I was having last week was, I've got five new tasks. Do I just boom, boom? Do I fire all five bullets at the very first opportunity? So then I put pressure on myself to like, now I've got to come up with another task or two during the month of March so that April has something fresh as well. And I hadn't made that decision until after talking to you last week. And that's when I was like, you know what?

Seemyshell (14:21.995)
and

Rob (14:43.415)
doing it. I'm firing all five. I'm so excited about all five of these. I'm putting all my new tasks in, all in the same basket. Yep.

Seemyshell (14:53.826)
Fair enough, fair enough, mate. Well, understandable. And you know what? I think a lot of people have, there's more appreciation for it than in any negative aspect of it. And it's because it's a fresh change. And as I think I said last week as well, change is good sometimes to change things up. And Munzee is the biggest, the biggest location-based game changer out there. You guys are very innovative with all your changes and discussions and badges and what you do next, et cetera. So...

Yeah, we all do appreciate this change as well. But I did have a question. A question came to me personally, Rob, personal question. It's from Colecracker7. She asked me, can you, Craig, I'm not gonna do that voice to her because she doesn't sound like that. Craig, when you're talking to Rob, can you ask him, when are the reseller glass guardians going to be for sale as this would assist with the rum activity for this month? So.

Rob (15:28.763)
Mm-hmm.

Rob (15:49.377)
Oh.

Seemyshell (15:49.778)
reseller glass guardians. And then I saw it again this morning, Rob too, by someone else on the water cooler asking about the reseller glass guardians. Cause apparently, Rob, they went for sale in February last year. Why aren't they for sale now in March? Ha ha ha.

Rob (16:04.911)
Don't you love the comparisons from one year to the next I know I do it's one of my favorites.

Seemyshell (16:10.519)
These people out there Rob, they hold you. They hold you accountable. They hold you to dates. They're avid Munzee players.

Rob (16:17.091)
And they must be some of the same people who've just forgotten how over the years I get really bored with doing the exact same thing and the same month at the same time for the same reason that's super boring to me. And so that's, that's the reason Cole crackers haven't that, uh, you haven't seen the reseller guardian glass, um, or glass guardians, um, coming available yet. I will tell you that they're coming soon. Do I promise you that it happens in March? No, I don't. But, um, they, they.

Seemyshell (16:25.248)
Hahahaha

You change it up.

Hehe

Rob (16:46.531)
The plan is either March or April, and you're actually hearing it right now here before the resellers even know that.

Seemyshell (16:55.549)
Oh, there you go. Before the resellers, before Dailam Barb and the Australian ones and the UK ones. Wow, wow, before they even know. Look at that.

Rob (17:04.024)
Mm hmm. Elliot who's Munzee Madness, he Golden Coins like you're going to meet him this weekend. Well, you did previously but yeah, we'll see him this weekend and you personally will know before him and he will know only if he listens to this.

Seemyshell (17:09.882)
Mm-hmm. Yeah. Yeah, yeah, yeah.

Seemyshell (17:20.21)
Wow, there you go, there you go. Poor Dale, he's gonna be even crankier than what he normally is just saying. I will say though, I've gotta have a big shout out to Dale and Barb for their help and assistance for my event on Friday, Rob. I had no real clue what I was doing. Even Lou can attest to that as well because I had emails back and forth from Lou going, what do I do here? What's this, what's this, what's this? And then the night before, on the Thursday night, I was talking to Dale and he's like,

Rob (17:26.475)
Oh my.

Seemyshell (17:49.486)
Craig, where are these? Where is this? What do you want to do with the flags? I'm like, I don't know what to do. I said, can we just use like, I don't know, generics or whatever? He's like, no, no. I've got a printer. I'll print them out for you. So he printed out the flags for me. He brought them along on his flags that he had already in his van. I'm like, yeah, I know. So he doesn't do that for many people. So I'm telling you now, you know, Dale, big shout out to you, mate. I do appreciate you. And I know he must really like me, just saying.

Rob (18:05.593)
Wow.

Rob (18:16.543)
I'm gonna, I'm gonna even back that up and go one stronger. I'm gonna say take the M off of a word that you used there and say he doesn't do that for any people. Not many, not many people. He doesn't do that for any people. So he definitely likes you. Probably not only for this shout out, but for, you know, that's good. Wow, I'm impressed. Well, that's great. You know what else he probably wanted? Cake. And he knew that the only way to get that cake was to help you help him.

Seemyshell (18:20.084)
Mm.

Seemyshell (18:30.293)
Hehe

Seemyshell (18:36.53)
Yeah. Of course is by. Yeah, exactly. But in saying that too, I do appreciate it either way. So there you go. Also people in regards to this clan talk as well. We'll get it back on the get back on the clans Rob. We're talking about the clan talk and the new clan requirements. People are asking about the how to break mechs because the mech breaking.

Rob (18:45.847)
Yeah. So well done.

Rob (18:54.831)
Mm-hmm. Yeah.

Seemyshell (19:04.222)
is the new thing. So I looked it up, Rob. I did some research myself on this as well. And I've got a little bit of a tip for everyone out there. How to grab or break a mech. A high priority, not priority, a high probability, I should say, is to actually magnetize a greenie. Why? Because spider bots go to die on them. So the last bounce that spider bots do is on a greenie. So if you're gonna cap a spider bot on a greenie,

more than likely chances you're gonna squash it. So there you go. Is that right, Rob? Is that a good tip?

Rob (19:38.859)
You know that actually is a really good tip. There is a time coming very soon where that that's going to be more productive than it has been so far this month. Do you know when that time is? Hmm. It's the 11th. Any idea why it's the 11th?

Seemyshell (19:41.448)
Yeah.

Hmm?

Seemyshell (19:48.318)
Wow, there you go. No, I don't.

Seemyshell (19:55.902)
March 11th, so 3-11, no, I don't know 3-11.

Rob (19:58.911)
It's because all of the sand sculpting specials are going to be gone. Those things are bouncing around right now. So they're magnetized to greenies as well. So they will be, I don't want to say priority. However, once those are gone, then you, I think there's 1,500 of them. Right. So the pool will shrink down to the spider bots and whatever else is out there that might naturally land there. So people's chances are going to increase. So that's the reason when all the chat started about.

Seemyshell (20:03.382)
Oh, so they're taking up.

Seemyshell (20:13.024)
Mmm.

Seemyshell (20:16.427)
Yeah.

Seemyshell (20:21.618)
Yeah. Well, this is...

I know.

Rob (20:28.719)
breaking mechs. I was like, I'm not worried. I'm not worried. I, people might have to actually wait until halfway through the month to get all of their requirements. Oh my goodness. How scary. Yeah. Love it.

Seemyshell (20:30.046)
Yep. No, no.

Seemyshell (20:41.087)
Mm hmm. I know, I know. Because I know, I'm one of those people, Rob, that try and do as much as I can at the start of the month to try and get over that sort of barrier so there's no stress. But also, Rob, I will say this as well, another tip is to start to deploy more mechs yourself. So, allow everyone more chances to break them. So, if you've got like, you know, a couple of hundred cogs there sitting there, what are they doing sitting there? Nothing for you. Get out there and actually deploy some mechs as well.

And I do think, Rob, this isn't in the show notes and I'm gonna put you on the spot here. But I do think if there's some sort of holiday, like a US holiday coming up, then maybe look at what MEC is related to that holiday and then you can actually get some extra stuff as well. Am I right, Rob? Am I right?

Rob (21:16.253)
Thank you.

Rob (21:24.331)
You're you must be reading my mind or the show notes. I'm not sure which. Oh, is it not?

Seemyshell (21:29.851)
No, that show notes aren't in there. Then it's not in the show notes that stuff. So the, no, it's not in the show notes. I'm just remembering from previous ones, from the Turkey with Thanksgiving and then the Christmas, you know, and then even the February ones as well with the X and the O and yeah, yeah. I started deploying that sort of stuff and I was getting these secret little things each time someone kept them. So there you go. I do remember that.

Rob (21:41.639)
Mmm.

Rob (21:46.612)
Oh yeah. What?

Rob (21:52.823)
Yeah, so I think that you are making a really good point. And that is one of the ways to get those extra breaks out there is for you personally to deploy things. I'm going to talk slowly. But there might be, as if this was planned, there might be some help on the way, some reasons to get things out there as far as those mechs go. And again, we're talking, you know.

Seemyshell (22:00.002)
Man.

Rob (22:22.795)
after the 11th because then there's gonna be some reason that we need some more mechs out there. Go on then, all right, next, yep.

Seemyshell (22:30.678)
more room. Oh wow, there you go. All right, Rob, what's up next then we're gonna get a move on with 20 minutes in already. Jeez.

Rob (22:38.859)
Well, let's see, let's talk about the spring cleaning sale, because that is going on right now as far as when the podcast has launched sales running from the seventh through the 17th. Um, and it's a big, um, it's a big spring cleaning sale. And so we're actually doing a store wide discount for 10 days. Yeah, it's 20%. So, I mean, you're talking about something that, um,

Seemyshell (22:42.722)
Mm-hmm.

Seemyshell (22:58.901)
Oh wow.

Yes.

Rob (23:04.387)
pretty substantial amount of a discount. Now you've got to spend at least $30 in order to do that. And this is true coming from my mouth as of the morning that we are recording this. So if any changes take place in the next 24 hours, then obviously the words that I just said might be a little different, but that's what it is. And if we made a change, you're welcome because it's probably gonna be a better one. I don't know how that's even possible. It's a great deal.

Seemyshell (23:09.623)
Mm-hmm.

Seemyshell (23:23.029)
Yeah.

Seemyshell (23:29.034)
Nice, nice. And we're talking spring cleaning, so we're talking all the virtual items only. That's all in regards to like, you know, if you wanna buy bounces, if you wanna buy virtuals, everything. What about the, not the actual product, not the physical products though. Everything, even the physical products, physical products. Oh.

Rob (23:36.884)
EVERYTHING

Rob (23:41.915)
Everything that's in the store. Everything, everything. Everything. All the things.

Seemyshell (23:53.29)
Guys, because if you've not seen the physical products in there, and I will shout out to, oh, what is his name? I'm thinking Minions Are Cool. There he is, that's a really good name. Yeah, Minions Are Cool. He hosted an event in California, I do believe, a couple of weeks ago, and he or someone else from the event had actually purchased one of the official, Rob, the official Munzee event flags and posted it on social media, on Facebook. And people are saying, well, how did you make that flag? Where did you get that flag from?

Rob (24:01.654)
Oh yeah!

Seemyshell (24:22.146)
Guys, this is all in the freeze tag store. So go and have a look. Even Minnesota boy on the weekend, Rob, he proudly wearing the distressed Munzee hat. I say distressed because it actually comes pre distressed like on the edge and with the Munzee logo on the front and munzee.com on the back. That's actually embroidered Rob too. It's embroidery. So that was really cool. So make sure you go there to the freeze tag store to get all your.

Rob (24:36.488)
Yeah.

Seemyshell (24:49.154)
physical items as well as your virtual stuff as well. So there you go. Yeah, check it out. Check it out. All right, Rob, it's time now for the question of the week. And this is actually a good question too. It makes a lot of sense as well. There was a conversation in the Munzee Water Cooler recently. Oh, this is sorry. Sorry, this is from Charles from Facebook. Conversation in the Munzee Water Cooler recently about keeping accounts active through purchases for others. I've done it for a local with many deploys

Rob (24:53.435)
Check it out.

Seemyshell (25:18.538)
so they wouldn't get archived. Can Rob explain the process behind accounts going in active police?

Rob (25:24.095)
Yes, yes, I can. I will say first that it's all documented like in the support manual, so everyone can look at it and get a feel for, you know, exactly what it says. But here's kind of the highlights. We've got two stages of visible, like inactivity or steps along the way. So the two titles that show are dormant and inactive, and those two get applied at certain number of days based on, you know, them being inactive.

Seemyshell (25:30.242)
Okay.

Seemyshell (25:34.616)
Mm-hmm.

Seemyshell (25:40.706)
Mm-hmm.

Rob (25:53.311)
So once an account goes to the second step, which is inactive, then we have a third invisible point after that, where their virtuals are actually undeplied. So not archived, they're just put back into their undeplied lists and reset so that if they come back into the game, then they still have them to deploy. Now, the physicals are not the same. We're going to get rid of almost all of the physicals, going to archive them because with that person not being in the game

Seemyshell (26:07.935)
Oh, okay.

Rob (26:21.707)
you know, keep up their physicals, then we just take them out of there. So it is possible in order to answer the rest of the question to keep an account in active status and through the purchase of a couple of different things in the freeze tag store. This isn't me trying to sell it. This is me answering the question. So they're the automatically deployed things like an emerald, for example, something that gets deployed immediately on an account. So, yeah, there you go.

Seemyshell (26:24.673)
Mm.

Seemyshell (26:39.212)
Mm-hmm.

No question.

Seemyshell (26:47.069)
Mm-hmm.

Seemyshell (26:51.07)
Right, right, there you go. Yeah, yeah, yeah. Because yeah, it's not you trying to sell anything, you're just answering a question. Charles actually did it himself as well, to keep it that way. So don't forget guys, if you have a question for Rob, or a tip of the week for me, make sure you personal message me on Facebook, Instagram, and or on Discord, or the Munzee app itself. So there you go. What tip of the week do we have Rob? We didn't even list a tip of the week for the... Ha ha ha. Hmm? Yeah, yeah, yeah.

Rob (27:14.207)
You know what? I got you one because this actually ties back into the clan requirements right now. So I'll throw a tip of the week for everyone. There were some people who were talking about once the clan requirements came out, oh man, a heads up would have been amazing for the

Seemyshell (27:21.162)
Mm-hmm. Yeah. Here's a tip of the week from Rob.

Seemyshell (27:32.167)
Mm-hmm.

Rob (27:36.955)
coming out is, you know, a minimum of I think it's the B comes out at 1417 days, something like that, maybe 21. I don't remember all the time periods, but the Evo bouncers are going to be the tricky one for this month. So you know, as usual, stay tuned. But the because we're always having conversations in the background that everybody knows that we're having, they just don't know which ones

Seemyshell (27:43.928)
Mm-hmm.

Seemyshell (27:55.982)
I'm sorry.

Seemyshell (28:02.207)
Mm-hmm.

Rob (28:03.467)
Um, so the, the bouncers, people that used an Evo reset, an Evo reset credit at the very beginning of the month, or when they came out on the 28th, like I was, um, in order to get those bouncers out there, the Evo reset, um, credit is a good one to use to keep those things fresh. And they count as a deploy whenever they, you know, bounce whenever they, they spring from that Evo.

Seemyshell (28:09.793)
Mm-hmm.

Seemyshell (28:14.55)
Yeah.

Rob (28:31.419)
Don't forget that is a deploy for that day. So using those on a regular calendar, like maybe Humbird seven, because I think that she does. Just the thought, check it out people. That's my tip. There you go.

Seemyshell (28:34.316)
Yeah.

Seemyshell (28:44.642)
That's a great, that's a great tip. That's a great tip, Rob. Very good, my great tip. And yeah, like me as well. I thought about, I thought about that the other day. And I thought, well, you know, hang on a second. Cause you see all these evos around, especially my travels and all the evos. I'm maxed out. If I haven't kept them, they're maxed out. I'm thinking to myself, you know, they just sit there and maxed out. Why not? You know, reset a few of them here and there. So good tip, Rob. Good tip. There you go. Can you, can you re you can reset any evo, can't you, whether it be yours or not.

Rob (28:49.56)
I'm- The-

Rob (29:08.603)
Thanks.

Rob (29:13.183)
You can, you can indeed. So if you want to be nice to people, go for it. Clan rewards often have been those reset credits. And as a future piece to that, if I have that as an option for clan requirements, don't you think it might show up at some point in time again? So there's your heads up. There's your heads up people.

Seemyshell (29:14.454)
You got it? Yeah, you got it?

Seemyshell (29:21.079)
Yeah.

Seemyshell (29:31.466)
Oh, geez, look at that, people. There you go. All right, Rob. So that ends another official Munzee podcast.
