Craig (00:20.233)
So sit back, relax, drive your car today, Rob. We're just chatting Munzee stuff, you know, like we always do, but, you know, it's a little bit more relaxed this week because the big stuff that went out during the week already that everyone already knows about, and if they don't know about it, then, they can listen to us ramble on about it on a different episode.

Rob (00:40.719)
yes, yes, also known as gauntlet games, so yeah.

Craig (00:45.376)

Rob (00:48.014)
The words.

The words yes, that we've been trying to train ourselves behind the scenes to start using. However, on this podcast, we couldn't start using them yet. So it's been a bit tricky, but yeah, the news is out there.

So there we go, Exactly. Mate, so is that all you've actually been up to for the last week? It's just the gauntlet game stuff.

Rob (01:13.262)

Rob (01:21.544)
It really and truly has been. I mean, last week talked a little bit about some cycling. So, yeah, wrap that up. Good weekend of cycling training for for a charity ride that's coming up in now two and a half, three weeks. So, yeah, because of that, doing that in the real world, but in the Munzee world, it's all gauntlet games, all.

Rob (02:16.814)
pink. Well, we haven't we haven't seen the jersey yet. But it's my understanding that it might be that color that the that this company has created. So yeah, you might get to see one in real life. And yeah, we may create one of those. That's not a bad idea. Yeah.

Craig (02:31.678)
Mm-hmm.

Well, I can't, Rob, I'm telling you now I'm missing out so far. didn't get any photos of you in your Lycra over the weekend that you when you're away and stuff with your writing and I need, I need them, sir. I need these photos. I probably said that a bit too needy, but I want, I want to see these photos of a view in your Lycra, sir.

Rob (02:44.312)
You're welcome.

Rob (02:49.614)
Right.

Rob (02:54.732)
Well, when we just recorded this gauntlet games, you know, we did it on video. We put it out on YouTube. I guess I could have worn, you know, my kit then, but it's too late. We can't go back and re record that one. So.

Craig (03:00.229)
Yeah. Yeah.

Craig (03:08.415)

I'll have to, I'll have to create them with the good AI. I'll just say that. Meanwhile, meanwhile, Rob, our guild, you, me and Minnesota boy, Minnesota boy, Minnesota boy, we, our guild, did you like that? Our guild reached level six this month as well. So, you know, I was pretty proud of that, you know, with the 6 million points required, for level six, for a team, then I thought for a team of three that, that worked well, even though

Rob (03:49.784)
Yeah.

Rob (03:53.07)
Yeah, we did.

Craig (04:04.443)
You only got literally half of what you were required to get, but that's okay.

Rob (04:09.774)
Yeah, I met all of the minimum requirements as an individual and I was pushing to get to 1 million points to carry one sixth of the weight on the 6 million points and fortunately you two made up the other five.

Craig (04:20.319)
Hahaha!

Well, yeah, I'm at three million now and Tim's at two and a half. So there we go. So you're welcome, Rob. You're welcome, sir. That's all I'll say there. meanwhile, we can't talk about anything, but Munzee because I just listened to the Munzee Maniacs podcast, their last episode too, like they did. They dropped two episodes in within a month and it shocked me. They are coming up to their, their number 100 show. Now, Rob, they did invite you and I, sir.

Rob (04:32.398)
Yeah. Thanks for carrying the load.

Rob (04:46.147)
Wow.

Craig (04:54.409)
to join them on their show 100. means that they're up to, I think this was episode 98. So they got 99 and then the 100. So I think we're gonna have to sort of accept their invitation to jump onto their show.

Rob (04:54.733)
Yeah?

Rob (05:01.23)
Wow.

Rob (05:09.806)
Yes, I accept on behalf of myself. Yeah, will be my third time on there, which is cool. I was on, can't even remember what numbers, but I feel like it was something like 10 and 50 or something. So yeah, it's been a while since I've seen and talked to those guys, but that'd be, that would be great.

Craig (05:11.807)
Mm-hmm.

Mm-hmm.

You know.

Craig (05:21.599)
Mm-hmm.

Craig (05:28.319)
Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. You were on one of their shows, Rob, when you recorded from California in the car, I do recall. So I've got a good memory, man. I've got a good memory when it comes to recording stuff. So don't worry about that. Yeah. Yeah. That's right. And the truck as well. Yeah. I remember that I was there with Josh, uh, the geocaching blogger and also Tim Minnesota boy as well. So, uh, the three of us there. And cause I remember, I think it might've been Josh coming knocking on you in there and you're like, shh, I'm recording a podcast. So

Rob (05:34.656)
yeah. Yeah. Had Lou with me and Mari and Tamara were in the truck too and yeah, that's true. That's very funny.

Rob (05:50.99)
I forgot about that.

Rob (05:57.238)
Yeah.

Craig (05:58.208)
Uh, that's how I recall. That's how I recall it. Anyway, yes. Uh, PJ, Sarah and Kevin. Yes. We would love to jump onto your number 100. Let us know. Um, time zones are going to be a little bit fun. I'll say that because I'm at MHQ time. Rob's not and you're not so, and you're literally the opposite ends of the MHQ time. Both of you. Yeah. And it's midnight for Rob. It's mid day. No, it's, it's.

Rob (06:18.263)
Mm-hmm.

Rob (06:21.934)
the

Craig (06:27.601)
What time is it anyway, we're gonna have to work out the time.

Rob (06:30.498)
I've been known to stay up real late, so if anyone's gonna flex, I'm happy to be the one. Let's figure it out though, it'll be a great time, and then we'll encourage everybody to listen in.

Craig (06:33.183)
Yeah.

Craig (06:41.147)
Absolutely. And if you're going to flex, Rob, make sure you wear your Lycra. Anyway, moving on, moving on last week's last weekend's events in USA we had Kansas, Virginia, Florida and Texas and around the world, mate. Lycra is in my brain.

Rob (06:44.692)
goodness.

Rob (06:50.465)
Ending

Rob (06:55.95)
Here we go

Rob (07:03.214)
around the world is nice and easy. It was hungry in Germany.

Craig (07:07.583)
And the leaderboards over the weekend as well. had the number one player in the world, Colecracker7 on 226,000 points, followed in second place by Jaroslav Kas 210,000 points. And in third place, Vony with 200,000 points. On Saturday, Rob, we had a millionaire.

Rob (07:25.134)
Yeah, we did. I'm impressed by this. This is happy 22, H-A-P-P-E 22. Then in second was Eagle Dad and Xenia, 503,000 points. And then KP Crystal, 07, 365,000.

Craig (07:31.176)
Mm-hmm.

Craig (07:41.504)
And stay tuned Rob too, because I've got a special question for you, Rob from Eagle Dad and Xenia at the end of the show too. So yes, it's a very special badge hand question. Meanwhile, on Sunday in first place, have Jaroslav Kas, 351,000 points, followed by KLC, 299,000 points. And in third place, Jack Sparrow with 275,000 points.

Rob (07:47.553)
all right.

Craig (08:06.035)
The event's coming up this weekend. It's a little dull weekend. Why? Because we're outside the, the clan. well, with the guild, we're outside the Gauntlet Guild. said that I said it. was the first. We're outside the, the, the Gauntlet Games, month. in USA, we have Texas and Florida and around the world, mate.

Rob (08:17.473)
you did it!

Rob (08:28.152)
Denmark, Netherlands, and there's one in Japan, which is on Monday on the calendar. Don't forget, everyone!

Craig (08:31.423)
Mm-hmm.

Don't forget as well, Monday on the calendar. you're USA Monday on the calendar, isn't Monday USA Monday on the calendar is probably Sunday night. So don't be deploying cards and everything. Yeah. Use couple of Z for the time zones and go from there or deploy right now. Why do this into this? That's all I'll say. So, cause if it's Friday, don't deploy, you listen to this a week late, anyway, big events around the world, mate, may 23rd coexisting geo would suck.

Rob (08:43.691)
Use cup of tea.

Craig (09:03.391)

Munzee at Midwest Geobash, another co-exist. September 18th at 20 Munzee Mania in Minnesota. I have to say that just to annoy him. November 6, 7, 8, we got Munzee Mara.

in Las Vegas and then January 14, 15, 16, 17th, that's right, four days, five events, Munzey, Mecca, and Florida. If you're hosting a big event and you want more information, et cetera, to get your word out, let me know. Meanwhile, Rob, let's move on now to what's happened this week. Now we can't spend too much time on this because we've spent 20 minutes on it in the last special. And that is the Gauntlet Games. Let's just discuss how it actually went out.

first and foremost.

Rob (10:01.698)
Yeah, so we released the blog, let everybody know, you know, early before the requirements for May went out that basically we're changing the name. I mean, the a lot of people have read through the blog, which is a long blog and pointed out there's not really a lot of changes. And that is true. This is a mainly a name change, mainly an update in graphics.

Craig (10:07.839)
Mm-hmm.

Craig (10:18.291)
Mm-hmm.

Craig (10:28.628)
Mm-hmm.

Rob (10:29.966)
The style of the gameplay is going to be a little bit different moving forward, baby steps. So one, changing of name, graphics, all of that, making sure that we get everything tightened up, looks good, and very pleased with how that went. Next steps are introduce some different types of gameplay, maybe some different types of requirements that people haven't seen before.

Craig (10:34.708)
Mm-hmm.

Mm-hmm.

Yeah.

Craig (10:48.233)
Mm-hmm.

Craig (11:00.03)
Mm-hmm.

Rob (11:00.126)
additional rewards. mean, there, there are, there are a lot of options available to us now moving forward with this new gameplay style, which is, as we've written more cooperative versus battle and war, type of thing. Yeah.

Craig (11:07.486)
Mm-hmm.

Craig (11:14.655)
Mm-hmm. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. And it makes perfect sense as well. some people did say like, you know, picked up on that. They said there's not much change apart from really the name and the fact that you can now forge weapons as well. So don't forget about forging weapons, but, the new things that are coming out as well that haven't actually been released yet because they're not available. And that is the new level badges to Rob.

come out in May as well. So we've got new artwork for the level badges. And that looks again, because somebody Andy, it looks really super cool. So that one there. If you haven't read the blog for instance, or you haven't looked at YouTube and we got a video, we actually, we show our ugly mugs Rob on YouTube, just saying. Anyway, sorry for that. And if you don't want to see that, that's fine. Then what we'll do is we'll, we'll chuck it on the,

Rob (11:55.458)
Yeah. Yeah. Sorry for that, everyone.

Craig (12:04.959)
What do call it? The on this, where you listen to this on audio only as well. Audio only will do that as well. So do it that way too for you. meanwhile, Rob, it was asked on the water cooler in regards to, forging new weapons either before deploying or after, guess what you can do both. You can even forge weapons when they're already deployed from years ago, years ago. But I will say, be mindful of weapons you have in gardens, because when you forge them, they change color. So.

Rob (12:34.456)
Yes.

Craig (12:35.005)
that garden may need that tan colored spin at that particular location. So if you change it to, you know, the fire, fire crossbow, it's going to get red. So it may, it may change some garden types as well. there we go. Meanwhile, we know Sam, we know Sam listens to this as well. I'm not sure if I haven't even looked at it be honest with you. has a of seed gardens updated.

Rob (12:46.371)
Yeah?

Rob (12:52.268)
Yep, think through it all.

Craig (13:01.949)
the request for forged weapons as well in the garden builder.

Rob (13:08.334)
That is a great question that I'm gonna say. I know that there was a lot of work that was going on with Cuppa Z in order to be able to deploy all the different types and not have 47 new buttons and all that kind of thing. It's my guess that Sam has probably, because he has been fully part of the preparation for launching this movie, it's my guess.

Craig (13:10.899)
Yeah.

Craig (13:16.253)
Yeah. Yeah.

Craig (13:20.532)
Mm-hmm.

Yep.

Craig (13:34.451)
Mm-hmm. Yeah.

Rob (13:38.06)
then he's thought about pretty much all of the things. So whatever it is that you're asking and looking for, yes, likely to be the answer.

Craig (13:46.784)
And, uh, and this podcast comes out at 5 a.m. Eastern and now it's 13 or 14 minutes in. So I, Sam, listen up very carefully at 5 14 a.m. I expect a discord message from you letting me know who the ins and outs. Cause he does, he pauses, he pauses when he listens and then he sends us a message. So there you go. Um, if anyone else has got any questions in regards to the games, just reach out to the Munzee team as well. And we can go from there, but don't forget.

Rob (14:05.078)
It does. Yeah.

Craig (14:15.711)
I thought this as well. Actually, you know what? I'm going to skip this for the time being and get into it when we come to the requirements for the Gornling games. Meanwhile, let's just talk quickly in regards to the brand new Koala Goyle. Koala Goyle, Rob. A Koala Goyle.

Rob (14:32.437)
Yeah.

Rob (14:35.854)
I don't know what inspiration, you know, would have, would have brought that specific animal into gargoyle form in the, in the game, but you know, maybe inspired by people from down under. don't know. Just thought, yeah. You like this one?

Craig (14:39.003)
You

Craig (14:50.867)
Yeah. The flat Aussies. I love this one. I love it. Now what we're talking about first and foremost, the koala guile, it's a new skin from the gargoyle range. It's skins free, but you have to have your monthly streak. That's right. So you have to cap a Munzee every single day for the month of May in order to obtain this skin that you can then put on your gargoyles that you purchase as well. So, and also don't forget brand new month, Rob.

Time to purchase that new gargoyle as well. So then this skin can be placed on it later on. All the other gargoyles, if you've got out there, Rob, I'm not sure about you, but me, sir, I've got them all mine on randomizers. Do you have yours? Yeah. Yeah.

Rob (15:30.594)
I really enjoy the random feature as well. Yeah. I actually saw that you kept my garden gnome. and I don't know if you even realized as part of whatever, you know, like in a, in a Skyland or something, but anyway, you kept it. sent out the headphones. So then I looked at it and I was like, I wonder what it is now. And it had changed to the award show. no. So I was like, good. I do actually have this one randomized. Yeah. Fun to see.

Craig (15:37.703)
Yeah, I did.

Mm-hmm. It's a silent voice,

Craig (15:48.617)
Mm-hmm.

Craig (15:53.427)
Yeah.

That's right. That's right. The randomizer again, if you don't know what that is, you go to the website itself and check on your or cup of tea, um, a check on the bouncer that you want to have the different skins. You can change the skins. If you've got a favorite one or there's the right at the bottom, there's a randomizer. Um, that's been a, that's been a long awaited, uh, button for a lot of people. And, uh, it came out, I've just have a 12 months ago and a lot of people really enjoyed it. So.

There you go. Don't forget your skins on your gargoyles and don't forget, you got to have gargoyles themselves to actually put the skins on. Meanwhile, Rob, when the Gauntlet games went live, we're to get back to the Gauntlet games because we're going to talk about the May bonus events, you see, and now we're talking about the requirements for the Gauntlet games as well. So this one's brand new came out. We went back and forth a little bit, you and I, sir, in regards to the...

The redeem section for this one as well. So, you go to the gauntlet weapons and, you can redeem the gauntlet weapons for shards, which then weapon shards, which then give you different other weapons as well. So you go back and forth that way. If, people are asking Rob, if they wanted to, have weapon shards as rewards. Well, you've got the actual weapons as rewards, not the shots, but if you want different ones, then it's up to you to redeem them different ways back and forth as well. Any ideas on that one, mate?

Rob (17:21.802)
yeah, the, the, kind of mentioned it or you've said it there, the, give them weapons we changed from a really long time ago where, you know, sometimes it was just, here's a bunch of shards go and create what you want. but yeah, the, breaking down of the weapons and then choosing which weapon you want from those weapons shards, has become the way for a long time. I will say that there's two other ways for the first time ever that you can get a weapon.

Craig (17:35.005)
Mm-hmm.

Craig (17:42.994)
Mm-hmm.

Rob (17:51.69)
shards or some specific weapons. And that is through the gauntlet gear pack, I think is what we were calling it. When we changed over to the gauntlet games, we put out the special pack, the man, all the names are so different. I'm just going to say what was formerly called the clan pack. Now that one has a few specific weapons in it.

Craig (18:00.692)
Mm-hmm.

Mm-hmm.

Craig (18:10.079)
haha

Rob (18:19.904)
or and or weapon shards as well. And the muns pack, the hybrid muns pack for this month also has weapon shards just straight in with the weapon shards. So it's three ways for people to be able to get weapons or shards if you've never participated in the Klam Wars and got those before. So yeah, go go in, forge the weapons first. Then once you have the weapon, you can go in and convert it.

Craig (18:22.835)
Mm-hmm.

Craig (18:31.443)
Mm-hmm.

Craig (18:45.193)
Mm-hmm.

Rob (18:48.94)
before you go out deploying if you want to, or if you're deploying physicals, you do it the same as any of the other types, you deploy a greenie and then you use that convert feature and you can choose any of the options that you've got there, which if you have, let's say an ice credit and a battleaxe, you can combine those two together and put out that frosty forged battleaxe. I think that's what it's called.

Craig (19:03.807)
Mm-hmm.

Craig (19:07.102)
Mm-hmm.

Mm-hmm.

Craig (19:16.351)
Whatever it might be. That's right. That's right. And, and remember as well that when you do that, you don't place the mystery first because you can't change the mystery into a forged weapon. You've to change the weapon into a forged weapon. So you can't place the mystery out there and there'll be, there'll be no convert button. You place the, the battle ax and then do the convert from there into an add the mystery to it. That's way it is from that too. So.

Rob (19:17.953)
Yeah.

Craig (19:45.426)
Also Rob as well with the new requirements that came out for the gauntlet games. It looks like there's extra rewards for people in regards to weapons and mysteries as well. So everyone now has a chance to play around with the new forging techniques.

Rob (20:01.378)
Yeah, you and I kind of like you said, went back and forth. We've you set a base. I came in and was like, OK, here's a couple of changes. Let's throw a few more weapons at everyone, especially at the higher levels. And then let's go ahead and put in some additional elementals that are the current ones to use for forging. And then that way, everyone, everyone's got, you know, they've just they've they've got the ability to go and have fun with this new

Craig (20:20.511)
Listen to you

Rob (20:30.774)
element of gameplay element of gameplay, you know that we've built in because yeah, we think it's gonna be fun. And it's just the beginning, isn't it?

Craig (20:32.777)
Yeah.

Mm-hmm.

Craig (20:40.475)
It is because you again, you just said current as well. The current available elements too. Wow. If you, if you, if you haven't picked up what Rob's thrown down by now, then you're blind or you're deaf or both. yeah, this looks like it's going to be like a in stages. So this would be stage one that's going on at the moment. who knows what the rest of the stage is going to look like yet, Rob. So there you go.

Rob (21:04.138)
Or when?

Craig (21:05.375)
Yeah, exactly. Meanwhile, the May bonus events as well. Don't forget every single Wednesday. That's right. Every single Wednesday for the month of May is Widdle Wish Wednesday. That means you get two Widdle deploys for one. So you go to your wishing well within 150 feet of your wishing well, and then click your deploy for a, or your wish, sorry. And then you wish and deploy a Widdle from there and you will get two. Don't forget when deploying Widdles as well.

It's only 25 stars if you got a level 10 whittle as well. So don't forget 25 stars for a level 10 whittle. But there's a bonus Rob too. 10 times the points for wishing wells on Wednesdays. 10 times the points. 10 times the points. Not double, 10 times.

Rob (21:37.934)
Mm-hmm.

Rob (21:51.352)
So that's, yeah. So that's a hundred points, right? Cause they're 10 points. If you're using the virtual capture booster, then you're now looking at 200 points. So if you're going out on a wishing well, you know, run and Skylands and all that kind of stuff, man, this is the time for those boosters.

Craig (21:55.934)
Yeah. There you go. For our well.

Run. Yeah.

Yeah. Wednesdays, Wednesdays are the days or also Rob on Fridays, every single Friday this month for this month as well. It's flat Fridays. That's right. Flat scatters for everyone on Fridays, Rob. So every flat on Friday will scatter. So don't forget those as well, Rob.

Rob (22:29.794)
Wow. So that means today, if people are listening when this releases, cap a flat because they're going to be scattering and or if you cap flats and you notice, wow, there's more scatters out there. What's going on? It's not a, it's not a flaw that isn't, it's not a bug. That's what's supposed to be happening. So check the, check it right.

Craig (22:35.337)
Mm-hmm.

Craig (22:44.305)
Now you know. It's not a bug. It's not a bug.

But I will say, Rob, if you listen to this on the, when it's released, it's the first of the month. I'd be holding back if I was you capturing those flats, on the first, cause they don't count towards the clan wars. saying. there you go. Me, meanwhile, Rob, this is true. This tree. Meanwhile, Rob, May 4th to six. That's right. We're not, not the weekend. No, no, no. May 4th to six. So you're actually inside the clan of the guild.

Rob (23:03.426)
Wow, there you go. And there's plenty of Fridays in the month.

Craig (23:17.923)
Gortland games time slipped up again. May 4th to six double on mech deploys and double magnet strength for everyone. Rob. So in other words, you can get, redeem for like your cogs for one, mech and to get pumped out. and you can double magnet strengths as well. So if you're doing a magnetizing your Skylands and your tree houses, you're getting 14 now instead of seven. Wow.

Rob (23:19.544)
Ooh, yeah.

Craig (23:45.639)
Wow, those bounces are going to be working overtime. I'll give you that tip right there. So it's very, cool.

Rob (23:45.902)
It's amazing.

And that is, that's where we've got the May the 4th be with you. You know, that's what's going on. So everyone enjoy it.

Craig (23:54.43)
This is true. This is true. A lot of people were going to be deploying the, the may the fourth ones, like the, the, the, vitamin, what do call it? The, daft vitamins and lots of stuff. Me sir. no, not Craig. No, no, no, no. see my shell. I won't be that's not for me. I like, I've said this before several times on the podcast and I'll say it one more time. The jewel mix. If you do.

Rob (24:05.4)
Both,

Rob (24:21.134)
All right.

Craig (24:21.151)
five of the yins, five of the yangs, then you get 10 of each and therefore you get 10 of the doubles as well. So you're gonna be pumping out for five and five, you're gonna be pumping out 30 mechs instead of the 20. So there you go.

Rob (24:37.304)
Someone out there should do the math and see if the points that you get from 10 of each of those, so 30 total, if that's the same as 10 Darth Bardsman ones, because the Darth is pretty way up there.

Craig (24:41.663)
Accumulate.

Craig (24:46.963)
Mm-hmm.

Craig (24:50.663)
Yeah, Darth vitamins, but then it's also, gotta, you gotta do the cap on points for as well. Not just the deploy, but cap on points too. and I dare say Sam again, Sam, I'm looking now at 25 minutes past. He's going to have to pause this again and quickly press one of his magic buttons to show the difference between the point scales of those as well.

Rob (24:57.029)
yeah,

Rob (25:09.742)
Oh, no, no, no, there are spreadsheets out there from other people. Sam has Sam's got another big project that he's working on now and has been in the background for a bit. And we're we're excited for it.

Craig (25:16.671)
He listens to this podcast in his private time, Rob. So that's okay. He's not, he's not on the clock. He's not on the clock right now. So there you go. All right, Rob, we're going to end it with the Munzee Monthly Moments videos. That's right. We're coming into May. So it's a brand new time for the Munzee Monthly Moments. This one, this month for May, Rob, very, very simple, very, very easy. I want to see the way you, you know, either

Rob (25:25.303)
yeah. Right.

Craig (25:45.642)
forge a brand new weapon. So you can either do it in the field or you can even, you can even video yourself doing on your computer, Rob. So it's not a hard month for the month of May. if you don't want to go outside or do a video, then video yourself doing it inside as well and forge a weapon, before you deploy it. So forge a weapon, you know, in your inventory and do it that way. So that's all you have to do. Obviously put it onto YouTube or on, or on Tik TOK and, and then fill in the forms on

Rob (25:53.603)
Mmm.

Craig (26:15.391)
That's the way it works. you go. Munzee monthly moments. And by the way, congratulations to those winners who have been announced already. And yeah, so have a look at the Munzee monthly moments.

Rob (26:28.578)
Hey, I put one out this month, you know that right? Or in April. Did it go in? Did you not see it?

Craig (26:34.919)
I didn't, I didn't see it come through. no. I haven't looked. I haven't looked in two days. So unless you didn't last two days.

Rob (26:40.052)
no, no, it's been it's been a couple weeks ago now. Anyway, you're not what off the look. Yeah.

Craig (26:44.839)
It did. Did you Rob, Rob, did you go through cup of Z and upload it on cup of Z and do the links on cup of Z and do it that way? Well, then that's why, how, how would you, that's not entry then an entry Rob is by uploading it in, in cup of Z on the links. Wow. I have to teach the president how to do these things.

Rob (27:01.29)
Only? Only that way? I thought I could just put it out as a YouTube short and put the hashtag in it and it would float through.

Craig (27:07.247)
No, no, I'm not. You're looking at seeing my shell, not hammock that we do things differently here. And Sam again, Sam created this, this, this technique now whereby it's so much easier. Everyone, everyone can see them all at a click of a button. So thank you for that, Sam. All right, Rob, moving on to the Munzee question of week. This one is from the resident badge hound. and that is Eagle dad and Xenia. And he said, Rob, is there any news or updates on the fitness tracker within the app? Cause he.

Rob (27:11.648)
Craig (27:35.603)
We've got, there's badges for your fitness trackers. see, that's what he wants. So any news on the updates.

Rob (27:39.042)
Very interesting. The timing of asking this and you don't know this Craig that there's been stuff in the background that's been happening with this. Google owns Fitbit now. And Fitbit was kind of our main health tracker. Everything else fits in and all that, but some of it was broken years ago. We fixed various pieces. Well, they own Fitbit. I used to have a Fitbit. So I got an email saying,

Craig (27:47.934)
Mm-hmm.

Craig (27:51.657)
Run.

Craig (27:55.294)
Yes.

Rob (28:06.846)
you've got to transfer your Fitbit account over into a Google account or it's going to be deleted. And so then in trying that, the only Google accounts that I have are company owned ones and you can't transfer into those. So I'm like, I'm not setting up a Rob Vardaman at Gmail doc. Like I'm not going to do that. So, my Fitbit stuff is just going to go away, but I haven't used it for six or seven years, probably. all of this.

Craig (28:12.968)
Craig (28:18.792)
Mm-hmm.

Craig (28:26.719)
you

Craig (28:32.937)
Mm-hmm.

Rob (28:36.684)
to say that any companies that have been using Fitbit data in the background, all of us have to update the tools that we use by September is the deadline that we've been given. So anyway, yes, actually, there is some stuff that's going on in the background and over the next few months, it has to move up the ladder of importance. So we'll see just where exactly it fits in. But yeah, we're.

Craig (28:41.791)
Mm-hmm. Mm-hmm.

Craig (28:48.063)
Right.

Rob (29:04.6)
We're going to be doing some fitness updates.

Craig (29:07.795)
There you go, Gary. I hope that answers your question, sir. Meanwhile, Rob, I'm gonna go two tips of the week instead of the one. The first tip is, Rob, first of all, this is for you. Tell us how to use a mulligan and did you use one this month?

Rob (29:20.398)
I don't know what you're talking about, man. Yeah, it's actually really easy to use a mulligan and sometimes it surprises you when you have forced close the app and then you open it up and and it shows the little orange or the little red circle. I think that showed that I didn't cap or deploy yesterday. It's like, no, but it just tapped the little timer looking thing and and it says, would you like to apply a one day mulligan?

Craig (29:24.861)
Hahaha!

Rob (29:50.42)
Yes, please. And it did. So, yeah, that happened this month. That was part of my cycling adventures last week. I just completely lost my mind.

Craig (29:53.747)
Mm-hmm.

Craig (30:01.032)
Be, be mindful though, if you do use one, then it, you can't use another one for 30 days.

Rob (30:08.053)
It's the, yeah, if you use the one day one, you can't get it again for, believe it's either 28 or 30 days. So then you have to use a seven day one and then there's only a 14 day beyond that. So they get more expensive as they go up in timeframe and yeah, just be wary.

Craig (30:11.827)
Yeah.

Craig (30:15.463)
Yes.

Craig (30:26.143)
And also, also the seven day one, it doesn't, it doesn't give you back seven days worth of Mulligans. No, it gives you back one day of Mulligans up to seven days prior. Same with the 14 as well. It doesn't give you back 14 days. No, it gives you one day back within the last 14 days. So that's how those work. A lot of people will misread that and think, you know, Oh, I can, can go a week on a cruise and not have to worry about and get the seven day Mulligan. No, you can't do that.

Rob (30:37.773)
Mm-hmm.

Craig (30:55.357)
There you go, Rob. That's the Munzee tip of the week from Rob. Now the Munzee tip of the week from me is try the new forging. I enjoyed it. I did it both ways, Rob. I forged at home on the computer, you know, and then I also did one in the field as well. I enjoy both of them. If you enjoy it too, don't forget to make sure you video yourself and chuck in a video for the Munzee Monthly Moments where you can win great prizes towards new forging stuff too, Rob. So that'll be the prize I think for this month coming up.

But otherwise, Rob, that ends another official Munzee podcast.

Rob (31:28.59)
Thanks for joining us on this Munzee adventure.

Craig (31:31.209)
Don't forget, subscribe, rate, review on your favorite podcast app and join us next week for another informative episode.

Rob (31:36.835)
And remember, Munzee is more than a game, it's a worldwide community of GILLED Munzee game players.

Craig (31:44.063)
Keep scanning, keep discovering, keep that Munsies pretty low, Rob. 1, 2, 3, Gauntlet Games for the win.
