Craig (00:21.817)
So sit back and relax as today's episode we talk about, Rob, we had a big weekend. We also talk about some few things coming up. I mean, small things, but more about the leaderboards, the weekend. It was huge, Rob, how are you going, mate? You're up nice and early, I see. I woke you up, did I?
Rob (00:38.734)
You might have surprised me with an extra early start time today. So yeah. But you know what? I kind of expect it now. So I was ready. Once my eyes were open, I was ready. And we did have like a super exciting weekend. It was so much fun. Lots and lots of millionaires in Minnesota. Who knew?
Craig (00:41.177)
I did, I did, my dad did.
Craig (00:58.777)
Mmm.
I know, but not just in Minnesota, mate. There were worldwide these millionaires. I looked at a few of them. There was a few in Canada as well, which is really, really cool too to see. So mate, you're now back in Florida, are you? Yeah. Yep. Yep. Yep. Cool. Cool. So mate, technically right now I'm recording this, where am I? South Dakota. So the last couple of days I've traveled through North Dakota all the way across North Dakota.
Rob (01:06.126)
Yeah.
Rob (01:15.182)
I am. Yeah. Yeah. What about you?
Rob (01:24.014)
Yeah, all right.
Craig (01:32.089)
It wasn't as scenic as what I'd hoped it to be, but anyway, it was very flat and very straight and very farmlandish, but it was nice enough. Got a few Munsies as I go through, not as many as Minnesota, of course, but it's very, the Dakotas Rob, they're very sparse when it comes to Munsy, just saying. And then head down into South Dakota. I stayed at a beautiful free campsite last night in South Dakota, absolutely gorgeous place.
Rob (01:35.118)
Hehehehe.
Rob (01:45.646)
right.
Craig (01:59.737)
So there's state number 47 and 48 for me, mate. There you go. Yeah. Yeah. And the funny thing is people think, you know, Craig, you've got Alaska and Hawaii to go. No, no, I don't. I've actually got the very Northeast Maine and New Hampshire to go. So there they go.
Rob (02:03.726)
Wow, impressive. Yeah.
Rob (02:16.046)
That's it and you kind of live over in that corner so that's like a weekend trip, right?
Craig (02:21.977)
Yeah, what along a long long way probably a week trip I'm gonna take it a week trip. Maybe one day. We'll see. We'll see. We'll see What about yourself mate as apart from Munzee Mayday, and what if what else you've been up to?
Rob (02:29.646)
That's cool.
Rob (02:35.534)
really just getting back into the swing of things. Cause sometimes when I go to events, I, well, I kind of get out of the work mode, the Munzee work mode. Cause you know, I'm playing the whole time specifically blasting. yeah. So getting back in and, well, we, we had a really good, gameplay meeting. That's what we have every week.

Craig (08:13.689)
Rob, Rob, Rob, let's go back now to I am Fool. Give us some info on I am Fool. This guy, so just for everyone's information, I hadn't met this guy, hadn't seen this guy, hadn't heard of this guy itself. On the Friday event, Rob, he came up to me as we're doing the rounds and he said to me, excuse me, do you know what cake is? So he didn't even know what the cake was. And so I explained to him about what cake is, how you can get it at events and how it's in the redeem store. He said, thank you very much. And he kept on going and capping around.
Rob (08:32.59)
Mm -hmm.
Craig (08:41.145)
No idea I was talking to a future world record holder just saying. What's the history with I am full mate?
Rob (08:45.314)
Yes.
Hey, he's a quiet guy. So I'm not surprised that he kind of you know slipped up to you and said that Same thing. I saw him Friday night. I talked to him for a little bit. I saw him Saturday morning once or twice just a hey, how you doing, you know type thing haven't seen him for a couple of years and He's actually a former number one player as far as day record and He'd taken some time off from the game. I
Craig (09:06.361)
Mm -hmm.
Rob (09:18.99)
I didn't actually ask him what made you stop or what made you come back. I didn't ask him those two questions. Probably would have been helpful information. but yeah, he, he, he told me that, he was back one and two that it had been a while and back whenever we had the mega blasts. I don't know if you even had some of remember. So we, we made a transfer back then of one mega blast.
Craig (09:23.481)
Just that.
Mm.
Craig (09:43.385)
yeah, yeah.
Rob (09:48.91)
five blasts. He had quite a few. And we converted those mega blasts into blasts. He had quite a few. And he just decided, you know what, this, this weekend feels like a good time to use all of those. So he used, well, let's go with quite a few. He hadn't been to the to that area. And he literally had a blast. We, you know, we were out to dinner and we were watching and he made it past 5 million. And it was like, wow,
Craig (09:51.065)
Craig (10:00.921)
Hehehehehe
Craig (10:07.845)
Hahaha.
Craig (10:13.369)
Yeah
Rob (10:18.83)
He made it past five million and then six and then seven. So that was cool. he had just fallen off the bottom of Carson's, top 25 points a day. He's ever, he had just fallen off the bottom of that list. So what better time to make a return than to go from 26 all the way up to number one again. So well done, Dan. His name is Dan. I am full. welcome back to the game. Please don't go away for two more years. All right, stick around.
Craig (10:25.273)
Yeah.
Craig (10:39.785)
Yeah.
Craig (10:48.345)
No, no, you're making it interesting for all the other players. I mean, you know, you think about all the other players out there, the competitive ones as well. Like, you know, I won't mention names, but I had one person come up to me and say, well, Craig, if you add up all my weekend scores, they add up more than that. So there you go. There are competitive people out there, which is good. It's a good thing. This is what this game encourages. So yeah, I like it. I like it.
Rob (11:05.39)
Hahaha.
Rob (11:11.502)
Yeah. Yeah.
Craig (11:13.721)
All right, Rob, current events coming up this weekend. We in USA, we have two in Missouri, one in Alabama, New York, Massachusetts, Texas, and Florida. Rob, you're in Florida? What?
Rob (11:24.526)
Yeah, guess what? Okay, so I was looking at the calendar Monday, or yeah, getting ready for this. And I was like, there's an, I use the app now, because that's pretty handy. You know, I use the little filter, and it just said, like nearest and there was one, like 4 .8 miles away. What? That's crazy. So then click on like soonest and it's like,
Craig (11:30.169)
you
Craig (11:35.609)
Yeah. Yeah. Yeah.
Craig (11:49.209)
Yeah.
Rob (11:52.398)
third in the list and I went, wait a second. So I looked and sure enough, it is literally around the corner. So I was just like, well, when I cap things, people kind of know where I am and this is a weekend off. So what, what's a weekend off? Let's go ahead and go to a Munzee event. So I'm going to go hang out with, with, some of the people that I just saw up in Minnesota and hang out with them again. So yeah.
Craig (11:58.713)
Hahaha.
Craig (12:04.761)
Yeah. nice.
Exactly.
Craig (12:14.457)
With the travelers the travelers you'll see some travelers in in Florida very very cool around the world around the world Rob We have Canada Hungary Australia. We've got three ACT and Victoria have two so that's really awesome as well and don't forget the large events come out Rob
Rob (12:20.558)
Indeed.
Rob (12:32.302)
Yes, those large events. Like I said, we have used the app now because there's a filter in the list so that we can find the most attendees. And these two events are the ones that are sitting at the top. We've got Flagstaff, Arizona, which is coming up next weekend, May 24th through 26th. There are 28 people on the list so far. And, you know, that's going to be the ones that are attached to the big.
Craig (12:38.041)
Mm.
Craig (12:47.417)
Mm -hmm.
Rob (12:58.19)
geo Woodstock events and so we're gonna have a lot of like minded people who should become coexisters should then in in the UK we've got the midsummer events these are the ones that are at the top of the most attended or most attendees list you've got 41 so far those are June 14th to 16th it's gonna be down on the south coast of England so come and join.
Craig (13:03.385)
Mm -hmm.
Exactly.
Craig (13:25.177)
nice, nice area with that. Is that Rob down the south coast of England there at that time of the year? Yeah.
Rob (13:29.518)
It is Yeah, it's called Yeah, it's called the New Forest. I was reading a little bit about it on on a post that Herbie put out. He's the main host and just saying like, this, this is the time of year to come and visit this area. And obviously, there are going to be lots and lots of points. He basically, you know, was saying like, let's let's, let's show the world that.
Craig (13:33.881)
Mm -hmm.
Craig (13:45.561)
Mm -hmm.
Rob (13:54.574)
You know, we can have four mega events over the course of a weekend as well. So there you go. That's their plan.
Craig (13:57.529)
Mmm.
Yeah, just like Minnesota did just like Minnesota, all four of Minnesota's went mega, which is awesome to see. and we will, we'll, we'll talk more about Minnesota at the end of the, this episode to Rob, I dare say, cause we've got to talk about the, the new people that just showed up. And there was a couple of those as well, which is awesome. All right, Rob, the developments from this current week that we had firstly, the biggest thing I saw and it, I'll be honest, it doesn't affect me because it didn't worry me in the first place, but it does affect some people out there. And that is the new CAPI.
Rob (14:14.478)
yeah. Yeah.
Craig (14:29.753)
change. So you obviously listen again, you listen to all the players and you thought, well, okay, how can we do this to make more people happy? And now you can actually toggle him on or off without even playing him. You can toggle Cappy off.
Rob (14:43.278)
Yes, that is correct. You can do that. We wanted Cappy to make everyone happy. And for some people, some people to be happy, they don't want to see Cappy. Hey, all right. There's all kinds of things that people may want to choose to be able to do. So we've put this together as sort of a, you know, one of those customization types of things where everyone has an option if they want to have Cappy on their home screen or not. So.
Craig (14:46.361)
You
Craig (14:50.265)
Yeah.
Craig (14:55.385)
Yeah.
Craig (15:00.153)
Mm -hmm.
Rob (15:12.974)
the, that is in the settings. And if you turn Cappy off from the settings, there is only an on off button. That's it. if you turn him off, then you can go to your profile and the very top button now is camp hub. So, so no, there is no like turn him off only for this and 17 and then you do that. And then that, no, no, it is either you can see Cappy or you can not see Cappy. And, yeah, that's why we made the button.
Craig (15:34.201)
Yeah, no.
Craig (15:38.905)
That's right.
Rob (15:42.382)
on the profile, the top button so that you don't have to do too much. You tap your face basically, and then the top button camp up. That way you can get there. But you have to remember on your own if you take them off the map.
Craig (15:44.857)
Yeah.
Craig (15:50.201)
Nice. Exactly. Exactly. You, you, you, it's all you then it's all you. Exactly. Rob. some people would say that you took the R out of Cappy just saying anyway, we're moving on. I know, I know. I saw it in your face. I saw it in your face. Some people out there will get that straight away, but only a few. Rob, a double mechs event. They started on Monday and they ran through to Thursday. So right now when people listen to this episode.
Rob (16:03.754)
Took me a second. nice one.
Improvably.
Craig (16:20.217)
They're finished, the actual double mix are finished. But what does double mix entail? What did it actually entail?
Rob (16:28.878)
So this time the double max is a double deploy event. You know, we've done something similar time or two now. So for every mech that you go to deploy, it's going to put two out there instead of just the one. And that's purchases through the store, but it's also using the redeem tool. By the time everyone listens to this, it's too late. You missed it. So it ended on Thursday.
Craig (16:46.745)
nice.
Craig (16:51.193)
Mm -hmm.
It's too late. You're done. But I did see Rob that now that everyone's now deployed all their mechs this weekend. What? We've got double points on mechs for mailbox owners. How cool. It's like you guys knew what you were doing. Just saying.
Rob (17:10.446)
It's like there was a plan sometime toward the end of last month for what this whole month would look like. Isn't that weird? Yes.
Craig (17:18.457)
It is, it is. Now Rob, I did say as well in the water cooler about five or six days ago, now people were complaining that their scrap stars weren't filling up. We mentioned this last month, guys, exactly the same thing has happened as it did last month, and that is no one actually deployed any mechs at the beginning of the month, but everyone deployed their scrap stars. So if there's not that many mechs to get on scrap stars, then you're not gonna get your scrap stars filled.
Rob (17:28.814)
Hehehehe
Craig (17:45.461)
I had to magnetize and that shouldn't happen. You know, this scrap stars and they're putting an R in the scrap stars now, which you shouldn't happen either. So just letting people know, hold back your scrap stars until something like this weekend happens or this week actually happens. And when everyone is now deploying their mix and they're getting double for their mix, two for the price of one. And so now the map is flooded with mechs and this is what it's supposed to be like. You know, again, Rob, I said it before. I'm one of these. I.
I didn't actually put out a Scrapstar, but I'm one of the one players that try and get to level five in the first week, you know, so I can like, I'm one of those players. But when it comes to the mechs and breaking mechs component of the, of the clan wars, relax a little bit until mid, mid month because you don't need it until mid month anyway. So, you know, as I said before,
Rob (18:19.022)
Mm -hmm.
Craig (18:36.665)
Rob, the team, you guys have been doing this for years now. You kind of know what you're doing and you have plans. So not everyone is really excited in one week out of the month and then bored for the next three. See, so there you go. Is that right? Is that right?
Rob (18:48.174)
Yeah, I mean, sometimes we close our eyes and throw a dart at a board and see where it lands. But, but yes, more often than not now later in our, in our time running Munzee. That is true. We do have an overall plan. Yeah.
Craig (18:54.425)
Yeah.
Craig (19:01.753)
Mm -hmm.
Craig (19:06.041)
Rob, I can see this at your Munzee meetings, et cetera, that you are the only one with your eyes closed throwing a dart at the dartboard. Meanwhile, someone like Dylan, for instance, has got one eye open. Like he's always, you know what I mean? He knows what he's doing. Dylan knows what he is doing.
Rob (19:16.686)
Yeah, yeah, there's there's some aim there and trying to direct it less you you're you are correct. Yeah.
Craig (19:22.905)
Exactly, exactly. All right, mate. What's the June double points weekends have been announced as well?
Rob (19:29.838)
Yeah, so we're going big. We are going big. And, you know, we did some testing of some upgrades, I suppose, more upgrades and just kind of server and load testing specifically in Minnesota. And things went well and spent some time chatting through all of that stuff. And so we've decided that we are ready to try something.
Craig (19:33.593)
Yeah.
Craig (19:47.513)
Yeah. Yeah.
Rob (19:59.758)
bigger than we have done in a really, really, really long time. And that is double points on everything. Everything for June 14th through the 16th. That is the one and only double point weekend and it's everything.
Craig (20:08.473)
What? Everything.
Craig (20:18.169)
So Rob, does that mean deploying? Yes. That means capping. That means mechs, it means POIs, it means virtuals, it means cards, it means everything.
Rob (20:21.71)
That means deploying.
cap 'n.
Rob (20:29.518)
You missed cap -ons, but yes, it means that as well. No. Capping, cap -on, deploys, and it means every single type. Even the socials. Zero times two, zero, still double. Yeah.
Craig (20:32.537)
There's a, I thought I said Kaplan, capping is Kaplan's. Wow. Deploying.
Craig (20:41.241)
Wow.
Craig (20:45.945)
So here you go, here's your notice, and that is, everyone out there, if you're thinking about a little trip away somewhere, June 14 to 16, to include Hampshire, UK, just saying, that's gonna be huge now. It's gonna be bigger than what it was originally. So if you're thinking about a trip to the UK, maybe June 14 to 16 should be considered. Rob, what do you think?
Rob (21:10.766)
I mean, you're not crazy with that kind of thinking, you know? It's supposed to be a really nice time in England, so maybe so.
Craig (21:16.153)
Yeah.
Craig (21:21.817)
Yeah. Maybe, maybe everything, everything. Rob, what else about the birthday events have been announced as well? What's happening with birthday events?
Rob (21:31.15)
Yeah, birthday events. we're excited every year, you know, July is, is Munzee's birthday. This is going to be 13. We, I mean, in case you can't tell we're becoming a teenager. And, so it's, it's time for us to prep and to get all the word out. this year we're talking about things, with cake and we had the flower power events back in, well in.
Craig (21:35.225)
Mm -hmm.
Craig (21:46.041)
You
Rob (22:00.91)
May. Right? Yeah. So we've kind of gone with that sort of theme. So instead of it being like a teenage celebration, instead, we've, we've leaned into the, the cake and all of that. So this is Baker's Dozen.
Craig (22:01.945)
Mm -hmm. Yeah.
Craig (22:11.161)
Mm -hmm.
Craig (22:18.457)
I like it.
Rob (22:19.79)
Yeah, I figure people people probably wouldn't have seen that one coming unless they think about the fact that we've had the the birthday or sorry, the events early in the year in February, and then in May, and now July all cake themed. So yeah, that's what's going on. Baker's dozen year for us. And then we're just we're looking to have celebrations for the month of July.
Craig (22:25.017)
No.
Craig (22:31.897)
Mm -hmm.
Rob (22:47.278)
We've got some special stuff that we're going to be doing. We actually haven't announced absolutely everything that's happening with the events because the announcement that we've put out, it's for the hosts. It's kind of to peak the interest of every player, but it's mostly for the host.
Craig (23:04.537)
And so think about this as well. And that is if you're not, if you're in an area that you haven't been to an event and you know, nowhere near an event location, for instance, and there are people like that. I know people in my clan, for instance, they don't have an event anywhere near them. The closest event, Rob, I'm going to say is going to be a good 13 hour drive away. That's, that's what I mean. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. That's their closest event. So.
Rob (23:24.142)
Cool.
Craig (23:27.993)
Now would be the time to reach out to Lou and say, look, how can I host an event? It can be an event for a small event for three, four, five people. It makes a difference. Birthday events sound, they sound really, really awesome. And you know, things can, big things can come, come of it. And as I said before, at the end of this episode, we're going to talk more about what happens at events as well. Rob, meanwhile, we're going to move on to the question of the week. This question of the week was from Barlow. And he said, is there a reason, Rob?
that the map that in their Munzee app map can't be set to orientation. In other words, it follows your direction as you move, other than always North being up. Can that be a toggle to be switched on and off? By the way, he said, by the way, I love the podcast. So just saying. He butters us up after the end. No, no, no.
Rob (24:14.414)
good. At least he said something nice. Just kidding. This isn't mean or anything. we've, we've only got two settings on the, on the map, you know, that there is the hold down the trigger, the center button, hold that one down. It turns red. It follows your dot. and then there is, you know, whichever way is up is up and that's it. Yeah. So is there a way to.
Craig (24:24.185)
Mm -hmm. Mm -hmm.
Craig (24:38.873)
North. North is up. Yeah.
Rob (24:42.83)
spin it or any of that kind of stuff. No, there's not just use your fingers and that's the only way to do it. So that's all we've got for now. Don't expect anything to change on that during this calendar year would be my advice to everyone. Yeah, sorry.
Craig (24:47.321)
Yeah.
Craig (24:51.929)
Yeah.
Craig (24:57.497)
Yeah. Yeah. I mean, I know, I know some people out there and I'll say this as well. My referral, she's one of them and it, it, it, it, it pains me Rob, because maybe it's a, I don't know, maybe it's a left brain, right brain thing. I don't know, but I can follow a map no matter which direction I'm going. So if I'm going down on the map itself, I can know, I know my left and right is the opposite to what it is now. If I'm going up, my left and right is the correct way. I can, I can gauge that, but some people can't and that's fine. And obviously,
This is the type of thing that people need if they can't gauge that sort of left and right turns, especially if they're driving, for instance, et cetera, from there. You know, as I said before, my referral, Rob, it kills me. She uses two fingers and spins the map around. I'm like, what are you doing spinning it around? It's like, I need to see which direction is which. I'm like, I'm so dizzy sometimes by watching her spin this map around. But anyway, that's her. I can't say too much more or get in trouble. All right, Rob. The Munzee request of the week is back.
Rob (25:51.502)
You
Craig (25:56.633)
This request of the week, Rob, I had a guy come up to me, I'm not gonna say who it was. He came up to me at the Munzee events there in Minnesota and he said to me, Craig, you're a player first. I said, yes I am. And he said, do you hold Rob accountable? I said, yes I do, tell me more, tell me more. He reminded me. So over a month ago, what was now, we spoke, you and I spoke about the Cubbermoles. Now we had a question of the week coming about the Cubbermoles as to why they're not all available to redeem.
Rob (26:12.622)
Hehehe.
Craig (26:26.649)
There's only a handful, no handful, but over just have a half to redeem. And he said to me, Rob said he would do it Craig and he hasn't done it. I went, what? He hasn't done something that's unlike Rob, surely not. He showed me, but it gets better Rob, because he showed me on, Cuppa Z, yes, Cuppa Z. So Rob, Sam actually threw you under the bus head first, because on Cuppa Z, what a great app that is. They're actually segregated.
segregated in redeemable and unredeemable coverables. So they're segregated between the two. So he said like, you know, he said, why can't we more, you know, what can't Rob do this? What can't Rob, we promised it and he hasn't hasn't come about yet. What's what's happening with the coverables, Rob? Tell us. Did you just forget?
Rob (26:58.062)
Mmm.
Rob (27:12.91)
it sounds like I need to check with Sam and make sure that his app isn't broken or doesn't get broken. Maybe that's what it should be. no, good old Sam. He's always building fun things in the background that show people things that I don't do properly. no, that's, I would like to say that the word promised, sounds a bit,
Craig (27:19.833)
hahahaha
Craig (27:29.177)
Maybe.
I like it. Good job Sam.
Rob (27:41.382)
Interesting. I don't usually go like, yep, I promise I'll do that because I know that I tend to forget things, especially if I just say it and I don't have it written down somewhere. So here's what I would say. Maybe, maybe. And this is a got the word maybe attached. So that's the good news. I'll have this done by the time this episode is live on Friday, because that gives me today, tomorrow, you know, to get it done. Yeah.
Craig (27:55.129)
Mm -hmm. Mm -hmm.
Craig (28:08.729)
Yeah. Get it done. Yeah. Well, Rob, Rob, I did, I did listen back. I did listen back to the episode and you didn't say the word promise. I'll give you that. You didn't say promise, but you said I'll have it done by the end of the week.
Rob (28:10.83)
scary but but yes the answer is i forgot sorry about that.
Rob (28:19.758)
Okay, good.
Rob (28:23.694)
Ooh, so I've already said this before. Yikes. It did feel like a record when I was saying it did feel like that. Yeah.
Craig (28:33.241)
dear. See, I love it. People come up to me, do you hold Rob accountable? I go, yes I do. Tell me more, tell me more. All right, Rob, we're gonna go moving on now to the Munzee Tip of the Week. This one is very, very close to both of our hearts. And this is all come about the tip of the week, all come about from the weekend in Minnesota. Now, Rob, you and I became honorary members, we'll say, of a clan. So the clan itself, I'm gonna, I'm gonna.
Rob (28:39.854)
Yes.
Craig (28:59.353)
Ready? I'm gonna pitch this name. The Klan is called the Everyday Player Society. That's their Klan. Their Klan members includes CMC Williams, Geocaching Vlogger, Gravity Bear, Banana Force, Mecha MN, Sergeant US MC, Jerome Hasenberg. They're the actual members themselves. Did I forget one?
Rob (29:20.558)
Nope, definitely not. No. wait, wait, there might be, there might be one guy. It's, you know who it is. It's Gravity Bear's older brother. Remember it? Remember that guy? Yeah. All right. So yes, they were a really cool clan. And I know that I really had a great time hanging out with them. I'd never even met a couple of them, which was kind of fun. So.
Craig (29:21.945)
No, no, no, no, definitely not. Hang on. Who, who is it?
Older, taller brother. Yeah, yeah, that's right. Yeah, that's the one. That's one.
Craig (29:48.505)
Mmm. Yeah.
Rob (29:49.646)
you know, we sat, we talked to them while I sat and talked with them at the event on Friday and, and then they were nice enough that they invited both of us out to their after party. Who knew that clans had such a thing? So it was really cool. You can tell everyone what we got to do.
Craig (30:01.849)
Yeah. Mm -hmm. I know. Yeah.
All right, we went to a brewery like Rob and my one of my favorite, our favorite places to go. So of course we said, yes, we're in. When they said brewery, I said, you had me at hello. We were at the brewery and we were drinking beers. You know, there was some Munzee chat there, but it was a general chat as well, which is what I really liked Rob. It wasn't all about our game, you know, and what we love. It's about, you know, ourselves now. And so this, the tip of the week is about the socializing within Munzee, socializing with your clan, if you possibly can.
Rob (30:15.342)
I'm out.
Rob (30:20.206)
Mm -hmm.
Craig (30:41.145)
But Robert even gets better because one of them brought out the sodas, non -alcoholic, which I was a bit disappointed with, but they were non -alcoholic sodas, six of them in general. They were weird flavors. She had them taped across the front so you couldn't see what the flavors were. We all had shot glasses, so they kind of felt alcoholic. And then we all had to write down what we thought the name was. And the person who got the most correct, they gave away 500 Zeds, Rob. So how cool is that?
Rob (31:11.342)
Very.
Craig (31:11.353)
And have a guess, have a guess who won Rob, have a guess who won.
Rob (31:14.798)
well, you know, I mean, it's not my fault that I couldn't tell which bacon or pickle or, you know, they were some crazy flavors. yeah, yeah, there were a couple of really, really weird ones. I, I did all right. I got, I think just more than half because there were, I don't know, six or something like that, or maybe there were more, but I can tell you it wasn't me that was the winner. Was it you?
Craig (31:24.505)
Toothpaste, toothpaste.
Craig (31:32.793)
Mmm.
Craig (31:37.497)
Yeah, yeah. Another six.
No, it was me. And yet, Rob, you call yourself a beer reviewer. Like your taste buds should be on pallets on point, but but no, it was me and someone else as well. I can't think of the other person, but but they end up giving away 500 zeds to each of us. So, yeah, how cool is that? So that's really, really cool. So again, guys, this tip is to be social within Munzee.
Rob (31:45.838)
no, no.
Rob (31:53.934)
Yeah, it was super cool.
Craig (32:01.145)
hang out with your clan mates if you can. And even if you can't, hang out with your clan mates in a group chat somewhere on other social media means, you know, and share ideas and share thoughts and share photos and videos and whatnot as well. Be social, this game is all about being social. Rob, I remember his name now. He's a guy that we've mentioned a couple of times before on this podcast. And Rob, he keeps a tally of the amount of times we mentioned his name on this podcast.
Rob (32:29.038)
does he?
Craig (32:30.233)
Yeah, did you want to say his name just to keep him happy?
Rob (32:32.686)
mmm okay Minnesota boy but only because we're gonna see him in next week
Craig (32:37.913)
