Craig (00:01.346)
Welcome to the Official Munzee podcast.
Rob (00:03.66)
I'm Rob, also known as Coach V, your host and the president of Munzee.
Craig (00:07.687)
And I'm Craig also known as Seemyshell I started out as an avid Munzee player and now proudly part of the team.
Rob (00:13.242)
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.
Craig (00:20.216)
So sit back, relax. Today's episode we look back on a big, not just a big, but a huge weekend. So Rob, something's happening as well this week coming up. And maybe, maybe, maybe Rob may leak something, but we're not sure about that. We're not sure yet. He hasn't decided. He's in two minds. He is in two minds as we speak. mate, mate, we're miles apart again now, buddy. Miles apart. What?
Rob (00:35.303)
me.
Rob (00:40.738)
Always, always at least two months.
Rob (00:47.294)
I know, I know. So sad, so sad. But it was, right, it was a good time, you know, while we were together, lots of fun, both in Texas and in California. But yeah, separated by an ocean yet again.
Craig (00:49.848)
That's crazy. For you, for me, or for both. Yep. Yep.
Craig (01:00.982)
Mm-hmm. Mm-hmm.
Craig (01:06.478)
I will say Rob, think some, there's a few people out there, know, Joshua, the geocaching vlogger, who now appreciate our distance because the sound is much better than your parents library with one microphone. So this does sound much better now. So. He, I know. Yeah, yes he did.
Rob (01:12.882)
You
Rob (01:22.118)
that that is true. mean, Eagle Dad pointed it out. You know, he said, now I'm no I'm no professional, but he said he was listening to the podcast. And before we, you know, said where we were, he was like, something sounds different. So, yeah, we're we're back to the normal set up, everyone. Hopefully this is more pleasing to your ears coming through the speakers wherever you listen.
Craig (01:38.154)
Mm-hmm. Yeah, yeah, yeah. Yeah.
Craig (01:49.152)
And especially at the moment, Rob, because we were recording this quite early, like it's before 7 a.m. for me. And so this is my pre-coffee voice. So it's like a love song dedications Munzee style. Exactly. So if anyone doesn't know, yes, Rob, Rob, you're back in England. I am back in Texas at the moment this week. And Rob, I'm going to the Texas Challenge Mega event up in Florisville in Texas. So if you come up to that, there's some new Munzee gardens up there as well, thanks to
Rob (01:57.106)
Ha
Hey, there you go.
Craig (02:18.712)
To Houston, Texas, Dave, he put out a couple of Munzee gardens up there as well for us all too, which is really nice. So thank you for that. Dave, do big shout out to you, whom we met. We met Rob. We had a beer with him in Texas, remember?
Rob (02:30.704)
Yeah, we did. Yeah, we did. That was pretty cool. Saw him at St. Arnold Brewing, which was fun after, you know, you and I went and visited the beer can house, which was quite a place. But that's for a separate podcast. That's for your other podcast, which should be coming out soon, I think.
Craig (02:36.47)
Yes.
Craig (02:45.834)
Yes. Correct.
Yes, yes, yes. And that will feature on the Treasures of Our Town podcast coming out not this Monday, the following Monday after that. Rob, I'm picking up Josh from the airport tomorrow, Thursday. So yesterday as this goes live. And yeah, and I promised him to visit the beer can house with him because he got his little feathers in a tizzle because I went just with you.
Rob (03:12.774)
Yeah, yeah, understandable. So it's a cool place. Good to go twice. I'm also going to visit it again the next time I'm in Houston. I'll be taking Lou because she was interested in that experience of the day, the beer can house and the St. Arnold Brewing Garden. Yeah, it's going to be cool. So enjoy.
Craig (03:21.684)
Yes, absolutely.
Craig (03:31.406)
Exactly. I mean, normally guys sort of, you know, have women fighting over them, but here I am having two men fight over me. But anyway, it is what it is. I know. Exactly. Exactly. Meanwhile, Rob, the events over the last weekend in the USA, we had the big, big events in California. We had Missouri and Florida and around the world we had.
Rob (03:42.29)
It's how the world goes. Yep, that's it.
Rob (03:54.322)
two in Ontario, Canada, one in Queensland, Australia, and Kent, UK, and also Germany.
Craig (04:02.082)
Now the leaderboards, Rob, now just to prepare everyone, we had 20 millionaires on Friday, 26 millionaires on Saturday and then one on Sunday. Rob, why don't you lead the way with the Friday?
Rob (04:13.912)
Okay. And because these are such special people, I'm not going to blaze my way through because we want, you know, every one of them to have their moment in the sunshine, which we all had nice moments in sunshine California. So here we go. We had a world record set on Friday, the new leader of the highest points in a day for tofu girl, tofu girl.
Craig (04:17.634)
Yeah.
No.
Craig (04:24.204)
Mm-hmm.
Mm-hmm.
Rob (04:42.61)
8.4 million points which was almost a million points more than the previous record. Yeah! So amazing. Well done Tofu Girl. Coming in second place, her partner in crime VadoTech. So nice of him at 4.4 million. About half of the score which is pretty impressive.
Craig (04:45.506)
That's insane.
Craig (04:49.654)
Yes, yeah, yeah, that was huge.
Craig (05:05.631)
Hehehehehe
Rob (05:08.45)
Next up to round out third place is SeaGrey510. $3.8 million. Well done to the top three. That was amazing. Next up we have iBike4M which at $3.7 million. So that is the partner to SeaGrey510. So again, the female partner coming in higher than the male partner which is
I would say the safest way to play when you play in pairs of two, just the thought promotion to everyone out there who is doing the same thing. We've got Eagle Dad and Xenia at 3.5 million, then Wanzhong at 2.9 million. Marlo fan, Marlo fan, that's where I'm at. Marley fan, Marley fan CT 2.6 million.
Craig (05:38.914)
Yeah.
Craig (05:59.265)
Yeah.
Rob (06:04.978)
Q22Q17 2.4 million Minijay 1.8 million Stacey Z 1.8 million W Helen 1.5 million Muad Dib 1.3 million Bowler 1.3 million Bowler's Wife 1.2 million Team Tech Lian J Pixie NF5 Dragon's West and
Crowell all came in at just over one million. Congratulations to our 20 millionaires from Friday. Wow.
Craig (06:38.222)
20 millionaires.
Craig (06:43.238)
Rob you did just say as well that's a good idea to actually have the lady partner in the team be ahead of you but it seems like Eagle Dad and Xenia and Marley Fancy T didn't get that memo nor did Bola and Bola's wife so... see you know them all more than me.
Rob (06:56.786)
And also one song and many Jay. Yeah, so there I've got a couple of them tied down in my memory. However, Pixie and Crowell, that is a duo and that is Pixie Sue coming in over Craig Crowell. So well done there. Yeah.
Craig (07:17.07)
Oh, very good, very good. All right, moving on to Saturday. Now we, as I said before, big shout out to Tofu Girl for 8.4 million points, a brand new world record holder, which lasted exactly 24 hours. Because on Saturday, the new, the brand new world record holder for most points in one day goes to Colecracker7, Rob, nine, nine million points. Over half a million points more.
Rob (07:29.318)
You
Rob (07:38.93)
Woo!
Craig (07:44.696)
than the previous record. That's huge. mean, we saw her a lot in Florida as well and she was out there. But Rob, she came to the Saturday morning event and she didn't even have her phone in her hand. It was in her pocket. And she just waltzes on up, you know. By that time she was over, she was well over three or four million points, you know, before she did the first event. And I said to her, why aren't you still capping? She's like, I've got them all. I'm like, wow.
Wow, wow. So she got an early start. So again, well done. Colecracker7, nine million points, a brand new and current world record holder for most points in a day. Second place, EagleDad and Xenia, 4.6 million points. And third place, Robbo, I proud of third place as well. One of the hosts of the Munzee Madness events, Q22Q17 with 4.1 million points. She's gonna love that. She's gonna love that, Robbo. I really accentuated the Q that time, see?
Rob (08:09.84)
Hehehehehe
Rob (08:36.372)
yeah.
Craig (08:39.892)
And then the other millionaires, so that's the top three. The other millionaires are ready for this, so we have 23 more. Marley fancy tea with 4.1 million points. Bowler with 3.1 million points. W Helen at 2.7 million points, and I'll stop there for a second because Rob, I did out him in the Munzee video, the roundup video. I did, I said I revealed him for the first time ever. I've actually got his face on camera, so.
Rob (08:40.175)
Lovely.
Rob (09:02.119)
You did.
Craig (09:09.646)
Have a look at that video as well if you want to see the big man himself, the number one player in the world, W. Hellam. 2.7 million points on Saturday, followed by Team Tech 2.4 million points, Pixie on 2.4 million, Crawl Will on 2.4 million, RG Forsyth on 2.1 million, is it Moad Dib? Moad Dib? Moad Dib with 2 million points, Dragons West on 2 million points, Roxy Mama on 1.6 million points,
Rob (09:29.564)
Moad did be I think so.
Craig (09:39.086)
Mini J, 1.6 million. Also, J204, 1.6. iBike4M, 1.5. Bowler's Wife on 1.4. Stacey Z, 1.4. Wanzong, 1.3. Oh, Udak came in with 1.2. Udak's a local Munzee player over there in California as well. T Bleak in 79 on 1.2 million. Fisherwoman on 1.1. BGB, 1.1. Oh, one of my
Rob (09:59.079)
Yeah.
Craig (10:07.768)
favorite Munzey names ever. Biatchan, 1.1 million points, done to me. Biatchan, I just love saying it, Rob. Seagrey510, 1.1, and now, one of my new favorite names to say, and I can't believe she's now a millionaire as well, because we met her in Florida, and that is Jackpottjean on one million points. So well done to Jackpottjean. that's just.
Rob (10:15.762)
Yeah.
Craig (10:34.062)
If you meet Jackpachin, you'll understand why I'm telling you that her name is Jackpachin. So there you go. Lovely lady, great people and well done to all the millionaires for both Friday and Saturday. Rob, rounding out a somber Sunday, shall we?
Rob (10:49.874)
Sunday it slowed down just a bit, which you know, probably good. Everybody chilled out a bit. There were no events on Sunday. Well, at least not in California. So yeah, we slowed it back down. have RG Forsyth who still hit another million that day. VadoTech at 935,000 and Orio 62 at 754,000 points.
Craig (10:51.85)
Yeah.
Mm-hmm. No. No.
Craig (11:14.316)
And again, a big shout out to everyone in regards to all the points and a big shout out to the team who created the Munzee Madness. And we'll talk about that in a little bit longer because the event's coming up this weekend. We have two in Texas. Whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa.
Rob (11:26.332)
Thanks. Hold on. Wait, because you know, you didn't mention the most important people in all of the leaderboards, and that is the people who deployed because none of it's possible. Not one of these people would have been able to reach these records without all of the cards, without all of the flats, without all of the virtuals. It was a big triple point weekend.
Craig (11:31.522)
Who? Who?
Craig (11:37.838)
yes yes yes yes, it's very true.
Rob (11:52.83)
And so to the mailbox owners and to all of the deployers, thank you very much for your support. We loved it.
Craig (11:56.462)
Mm-hmm.
Craig (12:01.078)
We did, we did. And yes, I do apologize for missing out on that deployers, Rob, too, because, yeah, I know, like a ton of bricks, like I saw it actually in your face, go, bam, wait, wait, wait, wait, wait, Craig. So, all right, now I can move on. This weekend, we're in USA, we have two in Texas, one in Florida, one in Minnesota, Ohio and California, and around the world, Rob.
Rob (12:03.186)
It just hit me, yeah.
Mm-hmm.
Rob (12:22.63)
British Columbia, Canada, we've got one in the UK, two in Finland, Germany, Netherlands, and Western Australia.
Craig (12:31.872)
Western Australia again. Wow. I like this. I like what's happened to our Victorian contingent Rob I wonder they've They've gone a little quiet. I see all the Victorians. Yeah, they're napping. So come on Victoria. Pull your finger out Well in saying that though, I'm from New South Wales, so I can't say much because they don't pull their finger out either Get yourself to these events people that's all I'm gonna say and that is if you can't get it to an event find an event create one yourself and get there to it too, so
Rob (12:41.924)
napping.
Craig (12:59.586)
Big events coming up this year. have April 5th, Toxin is hosting the three events in Wolverhampton, West Midlands. May the 3rd is Munzee and Uranus and big fun. May 24th is Munstock. There's two events there now. June 7th and 8th is Ohio hosting SOS. Also at the same weekend as well on the south coast of England. July 11th to 13th, we have four events in Western New York, the Munzee Marathon. That looks like it's growing really, really nicely as well.
September 12th of 14 is four events over three days. Munzee Mania in Minnesota. And then Rob, I saw this on the calendar as well. January 16th to 18th in 2026 is Munzee Mecca in Florida. I know it's a fair distance away, but it's on the calendar. January 16th to 18th, Munzee Mecca, Florida. Yeah, yeah, yes, very, very cool.
Rob (13:48.074)
already already out there and promoting. I like it.
Craig (13:54.03)
That's all the big events coming up. If you don't, if you're hosting a big event or wanted to host a big event, reach out to me and we'll talk from there. All right, Rob, before we get a start on today, we're gonna do a little bit of a rundown first of the weekend. What are your thoughts on the weekend? What was it like in your opinion and in your mind?
Rob (14:10.95)
Well, we could spend an entire hour just talking about the fun that we had, the people that we met, the way that the events were run, just kind of everything. But I'll wrap it all up quickly with just a few things. I really enjoyed the time that I had to hang out with players. I know most of the people that play in California.
Craig (14:20.45)
Mm-hmm.
Craig (14:26.776)
Mm-hmm.
Rob (14:37.82)
There were a few new people that I did get to meet, which was nice. You know, you and I went out early. We did some testing of the blasts and everything else at the first event location so that we'd know that everything was gonna go well. I was really happy with the servers, with everything on the tech side. We sent really nice messages to the tech team. We made sure that they...
Craig (14:40.366)
Mm-hmm.
Rob (15:04.282)
We're fed. We unlocked the cages so that they could go home, which was nice. They still needed to do their work and they were online. They were very active in watching. yeah, thankful to the team. Thankful to all the players that showed up, all those deploys. And you know, I just really had a great time. Enjoy Munzee Madness. It is the original set of events. They are.
Craig (15:07.022)
Hehehehehe
Craig (15:26.584)
Mm-hmm.
Craig (15:32.142)
Mm-hmm.
Rob (15:32.626)
the events that kicked off back 14 years ago and have held an annual event every single year. really, really cool. Yeah.
Craig (15:37.55)
for ten years.
Craig (15:42.018)
That's incredible, absolutely incredible. Yep, yep. I'm with you Rob and I thank everyone for everything that they did, whether it be hosting, whether you even be an attendee or a deployer. So I do thank everyone who contributed to it. As I said, two days, five events they had over two days itself. They had one event one in the afternoon on the Friday and then one in the evening Friday night. And then they had three events over the Saturday too.
I quite like that idea. think that's unique. A lot of Munzee hosts now would host over a three day period, for instance, you know, do five events over three days. It allowed the Saturday to be, it was full on, but then it allowed everyone to, you know, either you and I jump on a plane, red-eye that night, Saturday night, or, you know, relax that afternoon evening and then get out and cap some more on the Sunday or travel home on the Sunday too, which is what I like.
Rob (16:28.988)
Mm-hmm.
Craig (16:36.814)
I enjoyed the locations that they had. They had a variance of locations from nice park areas where you could walk around. mean that first park, Rob, that we walked around in, that was a beautiful park. I walking around with a few of players as well, cupping the pins and really enjoyed it. And then you had the food locations as well. And one of the food locations on the Friday night had a mixed variety of tastes and flavors.
I mean, at the end of the day, you can't keep everyone happy. We all know that. But they did a great job in doing their best for it. The badges, everyone loved the badges as well, which is really, really cool. But everyone, more importantly, including myself, Rob, yes, myself, we love the big points. I got asked when I was there and it was a very fair question. Now everyone knows I am now currently off the leaderboard for obvious reasons because I'm proudly part of the team. I say that every week now. But, but, but people said to me, well the question was,
Rob (17:26.578)
Mm.
Craig (17:30.35)
Craig, have you lost any of your drive, your player drive, now that you're off the leaderboard? Because that can happen and it's understandable. I said to them, no, no I haven't. And the reason for that Rob, the reason for that competitiveness still in me is competitiveness with you now. So I'm coming up the leaderboard. If people don't know, you can always put people that you want to, you you want to compete with, for instance, you want to watch.
put them as your friends on the Munzee app itself, and then you can actually see how far away you are from them, how far they are from you, et cetera, et cetera. Rob, I've gained it now to where I'm, I think I'm just over five million points behind you. Now, 12 to 24 months ago, actually, let me give you 24 months ago, I was 35, 40 million points behind you in two years. I've caught up that much. So it can be done, it can be done. So I am on my way.
Rob (18:11.324)
Yeah.
Rob (18:20.05)
Yeah.
Craig (18:26.67)
to being the King Staffer. We'll say that. I wanna be the King Staffer.
Rob (18:31.686)
Now that now that's a title. That is a title. Hmm. I wonder if there are things that I can do to keep you in second place. I guess we'll find out soon. It seems like that's for sure. I like it. I agree though, because you know, I started off as a player first as well. Now this was back in the days of, you know, five point greenies and no virtuals.
Craig (18:42.636)
Yes. Anyway, it was a great question.
Mmm.
Craig (18:55.886)
No.
Rob (18:57.586)
So, you know, things were quite different back then. But, you know, here I am 13 years later, still playing every day, you know, still enjoying it, getting out for walks, going to the events, very much active, you know, and involved. I, my reasons for playing definitely changed.
Craig (19:02.072)
Mm-hmm.
Craig (19:06.574)
Mm-hmm.
Craig (19:15.798)
Mm-hmm. Yeah.
Rob (19:23.012)
And like you're saying, you know, I didn't have a staff member to chase because I have been the leader since, since day one, I had more points than everyone else on the team when they let me join. so yeah, there's, there's different reasons and it is a lot of fun. We, heard a lot of suggestions and, I think that it's not a bad idea that we tell people, we kicked around a lot of those suggestions in our most recent gameplay meeting and where,
Craig (19:26.923)
No.
Craig (19:30.234)
yeah.
Craig (19:38.542)
Ha ha ha.
Mm-hmm. Mm-hmm.
Craig (19:49.078)
Mm-hmm.
Rob (19:52.636)
happy to have have seen that a lot of the things that were talked about as requests, they're already on our list, we're already doing them. They're coming soon. I'm not going to tell everyone right now exactly what those are. But there are others that are not coming soon. But they are on, you know, extended lists way out there in the future. And then as usual, there's always some pie in the sky dreamers. Yeah, that stuff's not happening. So good luck. Maybe next year.
Craig (19:59.018)
Mm-hmm. Yeah. Yeah.
Yes.
Craig (20:13.261)
Yes.
Craig (20:17.838)
Rob.
Rob (20:20.924)
Keep on trying. You can ask me every year.
Craig (20:24.352)
Rob, some would say that you're one of those pilot in sky dreamers, just saying, with some of your ideas that you come through as well.
Rob (20:29.19)
yeah. yeah. yeah, for sure.
Craig (20:33.228)
by the way, if you want to follow this little ding dong battle on the leaderboard, add me, see my shell, as one of your friends on your friends list, add Rob, who is known as Coach V on Munzee, add him on the leaderboard and just watch his cringe as I slowly creep up and creep up and creep up.
Rob (20:52.422)
Hey, here's what I'm gonna recommend. If you want to watch the pass take place, you better add both of us really quickly because I've got a bad feeling about how the next two weeks are gonna go. Really bad feeling. Just saying.
Craig (20:55.821)
Mm-hmm.
Craig (21:01.696)
Yeah. We'll soon see. We'll soon see Rob. So anyway, I mean, I still remember my one of my first goals was to actually pass my personal referral in terms of who referred me and that was Joshua the geocaching vlogger. And I passed him and I was proud to pass him. And then I smoked a Minnesota boy passed him to and he wasn't too happy about that. So to do it to you now is my next you sir. You sir are my next.
So just saying. All right. All right. That was the weekend, a big weekend. And again, thanks to everyone involved in regards to Rob, we're moving on now because there's this new thing called the traveling troop. The traveling troop has been released. What's with this traveling troop? Yeah.
Rob (21:33.244)
Bring it.
Rob (21:42.406)
Yeah. The circus. The circus is back in town. And last week I suggested or hinted at the fact that the circus was coming. And, you know, it's been a while since the traveling troop was here. So they have returned. Previously, we had four of our circus performers and those four have come back. We've got three new performers, but we're.
Craig (21:53.409)
Mm-hmm.
Rob (22:10.716)
Well, I was going to say, could we talk about them? I suppose we could. Yeah, good point. So super excited. Why don't you tell us the one in particular. If you've got all three, go ahead and tell us all three, but a special one.
Craig (22:13.516)
Yeah, because they're being released before this episode.
Craig (22:25.262)
I don't have all three. don't have them on the show notes, Rob. I don't have them on the show notes. Yes, I know. I couldn't find, I didn't find them on the show notes. But there's one there. There's one very close and special and dear to my heart. If we didn't realize, these traveling troops are a representation of the flats themselves. So they are part of the flat process, but they, I don't think they count towards the flat friends, but they land, things land as flat friends as well. So the one that's very close to my heart obviously is the flat Aussie.
Rob (22:29.778)
Craig (22:53.034)
And I do think and appreciate everyone who grabs their flat Aussie and deploys their flat Aussie around the world too. There's even flat Aussie hats out there Rob, as in gardens around the world too. So exactly, exactly.
Rob (23:04.024)
Now, now you know that the the traveling troop, that's not the flat Aussie, but these things land on the flat Aussie. So what you suggested suggested for the traveling troop was that we would have Boomer the Bush Ranger and that's who's out there. So sweet little kangaroo. Now he's a boxing kangaroo because, you know, that's what happens. If you're a premium member. Well, well, let's start with how this is done. There's a traveling troop.
Craig (23:09.899)
No.
Craig (23:16.066)
Mm-hmm.
Craig (23:19.598)
Yes. Oh yeah.
Craig (23:32.59)
Mm-hmm.
Rob (23:33.712)
that looks like it's a little circus stagecoach. When a player captures that, it scatters one or two of the performers. So that could be the original four performers, or it could be one of the new three ones, which is Boomer the Bush Ranger, the Fire Breather, which is from Tamra, the Flat Flashlight. Also, we've got the Fortune Teller, which is Flat DHS. And so that is Dylan. All right.
Craig (23:54.357)
Mm-hmm. Flashlights.
Craig (24:00.981)
Dylan. Yes. Mm-hmm.
Rob (24:02.45)
Yeah, so those are the three new ones. When you capture the traveling troop, it sends out one or two performers. When you capture the performer, if you're a premium member, you will find some other scatters, the new scatters that come from those. So it's sort of a double scatter deal if you're a premium member. So the fortune teller scatters remotes, the fire breather scatters torches, and the
boomer the bush ranger scatters boxing gloves, so Watch for those on the map. This is a double scatter Opportunity, this is a mob This is the normal kind of thing. There's nothing really super different about all of that. So that's the general details
Craig (24:34.759)
I like it. like it. Mm-hmm. Mm-hmm.
Craig (24:46.156)
Mm-hmm.
Yep, yep. You can attract them too. You can attract them. You can attract them by using a magnet on any flat. So they will land on the flat. you magnetize a flat nearby and hopefully cross fingers, you may get one of the traveling troops landing upon your flat that you've magnetized. That's the best way to do it. I found Rob, that is definitely the best way to do it. If you're in an area where you've got a few flats, magnetize a few of them.
and you're bound to get some and then you get scatters and then you get scatters of the scatters. So I like it. like it. Yep. Yep. That's the way to go.
Rob (25:18.638)
Absolutely. There's a total of seven badges that are available in the traveling troop set right now. So people could earn I believe that it was four previously, there are three brand new ones. It might be that it was actually only three previously. And now there are four added. But anyway, there are seven total badges that are available. So go get them.
Craig (25:24.046)
wow.
Craig (25:32.46)
Mm-hmm. Mm-hmm. Mm-hmm.
Craig (25:43.266)
Mm-hmm.
Rob (25:46.756)
And one of the things to do is to accumulate, you know, more and more and more of these captures. So I'll just tell you, don't stop. That's the advice that I've got.
Craig (25:46.978)
Mm-hmm.
Craig (25:56.161)
Yes.
Craig (25:59.534)
No, Keep going, keep going, keep going. Exactly. Or moving on to the bonus event for mailbox holders only. So this is different compared to other previous weekends. Other previous weekends we had double points for everyone and then triple points for mailbox holders. This one here, if you don't have a mailbox, it's a normal weekend for you. A brand like, it's just normal weekend, no different. But if you're a mailbox holder, you get triple points. And now what do you get the triple points on Rob? You don't have that on your list, do you, see? I'm gonna throw you under the bus.
Rob (26:26.578)
It's cards, it's cards, flats, it's not, go on.
Craig (26:29.154)
Cards, yes. It's always gonna be cards. Yes. I think it's, I think it's virtuals maybe. I think it's virtuals as well. I'm going off the top of my head here. This is where I should have done the show notes better. I thought you would have had them up this morning, but that's okay. That's okay.
Rob (26:44.762)
You know, I can't remember for sure, but everyone can look at the blog themselves for this one specific point.
Craig (26:48.5)
Mm-hmm. Exactly, exactly. For this one specific thing. Because we've got to move on, Rob, because we're going to release, this is where the secret information I was thinking about that you're going to bring out. with gardens of the month, the gardens of the month. So far we've had call of the wild in January. February was too hot to handle as well. And we already know that March is the grass is greener and April is jokes on you. So we know those, those four so far, but Rob, heard a little birdie might told me that you may.
Rob (27:00.338)
Yeah.
Craig (27:17.934)
Secretly right now for the listeners release a few more What what yeah, are you gonna release a couple more? Yeah
Rob (27:22.354)
Hmm, well, sure, why not? Why not? A couple more. Now soon, maybe even this month, we may release the entire rest of the year. Yeah, I think that would be wise. So let's just give a quick preview. May is gonna be light delights, and light spelled L-I-T-E. So light being smaller scale gardens that have cool designs, that kind of thing. So light.
Craig (27:33.08)
cross fingers?
Mm-hmm.
Craig (27:41.672)
Mm-hmm.
Craig (27:48.012)
Yeah. Yeah.
Rob (27:52.039)
delights. June we're gonna do just keep swimming. So that reminds me of Nemo but but that's not necessarily what it is. However, it is water themes, water elemental type designs. All right, so just keep swimming. July, guess what? Very simple. July birthday bash. This this idea, our notes are, you know, favorite gardens from past birthdays. However,
Craig (27:57.006)
yes, yes.
Craig (28:06.208)
Right, right, Mm-hmm.
Craig (28:13.41)
Craig (28:20.621)
Mm-hmm.
Rob (28:22.066)
This can be anything birthday related. That's what we're going to be looking for. August. We're going with MVPs. We are going to look at crowning our favorite winners from the past year. That's what's written in our notes. However, who knows what this really turns into MVP. What does it mean to all of you? But your bar put your gardens together. Easy to say.
Craig (28:39.276)
Yeah, yeah, exactly, exactly.
Craig (28:49.102)
Mm-hmm.
Rob (28:49.958)
and get them out there. this can be part of our player appreciation events and awards. I mean, if we do those this year, that's always a question. So anyway, that's what we're looking at to go through August. I hope that we have everything ready and we put that out two weeks from now to tell everybody the entire year.
Craig (28:55.982)
that's right, that's right, that's right.
Craig (29:01.93)
huh.
Craig (29:11.902)
Mm-hmm. And I hope that Mari, Dylan and the team as well aren't upset that you released those to the listeners only. So there you go, listening to the Munzee podcast gets you some extra tidbits.
Rob (29:21.415)
Well.
Rob (29:25.126)
That's the people that should get the information first. Those who listen, those who read, those who read, learn it on time. Those who listen might get some bonus stuff. So thanks, everyone.
Craig (29:28.11)
Exactly Yep, that's right That's right or I'll move you on to the Munzee question of the week and this one come from the Munzee madness in person and basically it says Rob Can we get more widows because there's few of us out there like myself who've got all eight widows all up to level 10 We can't do anything, but we just redeploy them from the wishing well, so can we get more widows people love the widows?
Rob (29:56.604)
Sure, why not.
Craig (29:58.925)
That's it.
Rob (30:00.338)
That's what I got. I don't know when. I don't know when. Can't tell you that. But, but absolutely. Will it be an entire set? Will it be a single? Will it be something special? Will they be superpowered? Will they be? I mean, you know, everyone's got suggestions, but can we have more Whittles? Sure.
Craig (30:01.546)
Okay. He said, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah. No, no,
Craig (30:16.59)
Rob, you're learning, mate. You're learning. I like it. See, Rob 12 months ago would have said, yes, and they'll be out by this date. But no, not anymore. Rob's like, yep, that's it now. End of story. No one holds him to a date. No one holds him to a timeline. It's all said and done very cool indeed. All right, moving on to the last and definitely not least at all is the Munzee tip of the week. And this one is to get yourself to an event, but especially...
Rob (30:21.806)
Hahaha
Craig (30:42.566)
the big events out there. These people are the players, the hosts of the events. They spend time, effort and money to host these events for people to attend and grab cake and physical cake and virtual cake and have a lot of fun, talk Munzey, play Munzey for the entire weekend. And so they should be sort of well represented. So get yourself to a event, a big event. And if you can't start looking at creating your own events.
Inundate Lou, make Lou work, that's all I'll say. She's gonna love me for that, but she doesn't listen to the podcast, that's okay.
Rob (31:13.65)
yeah, she'll love that. But you know what? Events events are amazing. That's where we build the community, the community locally. This is the best way to do it. So get get together if there are players in your area, even if you've only got three or four people, that's OK. Just a host an event. See who shows up. Have a great time. Grow the area, grow the map, grow the game.
Craig (31:21.582)
Mm hmm. Yeah.
Mm-hmm. Yeah.
Craig (31:32.748)
Mm-hmm.
Craig (31:40.342)
And that's the best way to grow your local area because Rob, I'll even say quickly, and that is at the Munzee madness events of the Friday afternoon event, I was walking around the park capping and lo and behold, one of the other Munzee players converted a muggle right there on the spot. She capped her referral code and everything. And then I stood there for another 15, 20 minutes, sort of discussing a bit more about Munzee a little bit and getting some details to her as well. So you've got a new player in that local area because of an event. So.
That's the way to grow your local vent. Meanwhile, Rob, guess what? That ends another official Munzee podcast.
Rob (32:15.1)
Thanks for joining us on this Munzee adventure.
Craig (32:17.55)

Rob (32:23.659)

Craig (32:28.792)
So keep scanning, keep discovering, keep that Munzey Spirit Lover, one, two, three, traveling troop and the boxing kangaroo. Boxing kangaroo.
Rob (32:33.254)
Munzee on! My goodness. That's not a closing statement.
Craig (32:38.638)
It is for me.
