Craig (00:00.288)
Welcome to the official Munzee Podcast.

Rob (00:03.754)
I'm Rob, also known as Coach V, your host and the president of Munzee.

Craig (00:07.642)
And I'm Craig, also known as Seemyshell, I'm an avid Munzee player and I'm here to explore the game further.

Rob (00:13.1)
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 (00:19.988)
So sit back, relax. Today's episode, we're chatting about the big, big, big weekend that we just had. We see if there's any records broken as well, along with some new secret, secret, shhh, Z -Ops Rob. I know, I do love, I've done them all, mate. That's the reason why I've done them all, except for this one. So I'm still, I've got my finger on the pulse for this one and I'm still into it, mate. So.

Rob (00:33.954)
Yeah, your favorite.

Craig (00:46.28)
I wonder who's going to get number one in this one for the new mech or whatever it is that comes out for the secret. I love watching that on Facebook. the water cooler. is, is. And speaking of races, look at you. Where are you now? segue, segue, segue.

Rob (00:54.348)
It is fun. The race is fun.

Rob (01:02.082)
Hey, that was a good one. So I right now I'm sitting in Liège, Belgium. Lou and I are out with the Internationals. We follow the Tour de France femme of X -Swift, go from stage to stage, just, you know, supporting the race, cheering on all the ladies that are out there racing. No, to those of you who continue to ask, Lou is not a racer.

Craig (01:08.415)
Mm -hmm.

Craig (01:20.767)
Mm

Rob (01:29.454)
She is past her, we won't call it her prime because she's actually in prime, a totally different version of it. But yeah, she does some world championship races that are different than what this is. These are the young elite racers that are out there. So anyway, we're following that around this morning. She actually started, and Rhian, her teammate.

Craig (01:29.855)
Yes.

Craig (01:35.434)
Yeah.

Craig (01:44.49)
Mm -hmm.

Rob (01:58.222)
started their ride in the corner of Netherlands. They rode through the Netherlands, Germany, and into Belgium as part of the start to their day. So she's got a video out there about that. it was only a 32 mile ride, something like that total, because they started in the three corners. I deployed some Internationals, a sticker, and a virtual at the location.

Craig (02:16.607)
Yeah.

Rob (02:26.998)
And there's an event coming up at that location in October. What? Yeah, get there.

Craig (02:29.946)
there you go. Wow. Wow. There you go, people. You heard that he first, if you want to know more and want to actually see more as well, go and follow Lou on her LouTube and also Rob as well. You've been posting almost daily as well, mate. I'm very proud and Lou would be very proud of you too at the moment, posting daily and not just the beer reviews. You've also been having wine reviews. You're having car ride reviews in a Swift car, a Swift car as well. Like

Rob (02:47.298)
Thanks.

Rob (02:56.814)
Yeah

Craig (02:57.992)
You're actually on the course, mate. You're like official VIPs on the course, both you and Lou. So good job. As I said, if you want to see more, then go to YouTube and have a look at, I think, is it just Rob V? I think now you've changed your name again. Just Rob V for you and Lou Tube for her, I think it is. No, what's hers? I think hers is Lou Tube, yeah. So there you go. Otherwise, links always in the show notes. Let's move on, Rob, because I've been listening to the Munzee Maniacs podcast this week. They had a new one out.

Rob (03:09.602)
Yeah, just Rob V for me. Yeah, yeah, I have.

Rob (03:15.382)
Yeah, I think so.

Rob (03:20.588)
Hey, thanks.

Rob (03:25.198)
Who?

Craig (03:27.244)
in retaliation, one of a better word, to our live. I know, I know. And I did get though, Rob, I will say this. PJ did put a question out there to us indirectly or to you, I should say, indirectly. Yes, he did. And I'll save that for the end. I know, I'll save that to the end, mate. So did you hear them as well?

Rob (03:30.318)
I listened to it. I heard.

Rob (03:44.184)
Did he? Okay. I didn't listen to him. He didn't talk much, what can I say? So I guess I missed when he was saying stuff. They certainly didn't talk about the weather much, but yeah. Right. Yeah. So much fun.

Craig (03:59.52)
I didn't hear that word at all through the whole podcast. Here, right. I know, I know. All right, mate, let's move on to the week that was the events itself. It was huge because the triple points weekend for premium members and the USA. had Massachusetts, Florida, Ohio, Canada, California, New Jersey, Maryland, Alabama, Indiana, Missouri, Minnesota, Texas, and Wisconsin. So there you go. 15 overall.

Rob (04:20.001)

Craig (08:26.912)
Well done, well done. Just for everyone's information too, on Saturday, Rob, it was that high in numbers on Saturday. If you wanted the hundredth spot to actually get on the daily leaderboard, which was mobility, by the way, just to let you know, you had to have 602 ,000 points to get on the leaderboard. So that is huge. And any other normal day, that's double the amount of first place people. So there you go. On Sunday we had...

So over the weekend, again, congratulations to everyone who got on the leaderboard at least, and a big congratulations to those of you who actually got your first ever million points. And there would have been a few of those, Rob.

Rob (09:26.19)
Mm -hmm.

I do.

Rob (09:48.558)
That was 102 millionaires across the three days. Just did the quick math. 102. That's unbelievable. Wow. And to answer the question, yeah, that's a record.

Craig (09:52.48)
James... Yeah.

Craig (10:01.492)
Exactly, exactly. Alright, events coming up this weekend. have one in Texas, Ohio and Pennsylvania. And yes, I will be attending the Pennsylvania. It's the farm one, Robert. It's on a working farm. You can pet the goats and the guinea fowl and the chickens and all sorts of the... Yes. Around the world we have...

Rob (10:14.845)
Ooh.

Rob (10:20.62)
That's cool. In the world, in the world we've got three in Germany, one in the UK and one in Netherlands.

Craig (10:28.864)
You can tell Rob it's not a triple or double point weekend because it's lower in terms of numbers. Large events coming up beyond this weekend, but also on this weekend as well. on Saturday this week we have Andover in the UK with 24 attendees so far. And on Sunday, there's an event growing in the Netherlands, 34 now on Sunday. So if you're in the Netherlands sort of area and apparently Rob, they've reached out to me too and said, there's actually a nice route planned out for all the cake you can eat.

Rob (10:31.886)
Can't you? Yeah.

Craig (10:56.67)
So if you hungry for cake, get to the Netherlands one because they're placing out as many as they can. And it's a nice route too. They've already showed, they've shared the route on social media. So there you go. Yeah, pretty cool, pretty cool. What do we have next after that, mate? You like this one?

Rob (11:07.102)
wow, that's great.

Rob (11:11.982)
Tuesday, August 28th, Dale and Barb are hosting an event in Florida to celebrate their 25th wedding anniversary. What? Very cool. If you can't attend, then hey, why not drop them a happy anniversary card? I mean, what do you think? 25 years?

Craig (11:16.328)
Yeah. Yeah.

Craig (11:21.905)
Yessss!

Craig (11:28.606)
Hahaha!

Craig (11:35.584)
25 years, I don't know how Barb's done it to be honest with you. We love you guys, so yes, yes, Yes. Yes. Exactly, exactly. So, and as we said, if you can't get to that event itself, it is on a Tuesday, just chuck a card, chuck a card from say happy anniversary and I'm sure they're appreciate all the points they can get to. So there you go. And don't forget in September.

Rob (11:38.574)
Congratulations Barb or maybe even just Dale for hanging on for 25 years but yeah congratulations to both.

Craig (12:04.358)
20th to 22nd, four events, the Munzee Mischief in Fort Worth, Texas. And Rob, I have put my I'm goings on this one. And more importantly, my car is getting fixed next week. Yes. I got a phone call. I got a phone call from the mechanic yesterday and he's like, yeah, I can fix this, get it all finished for you by the end of next week. So I will be attending Munzee Mischief in Fort Worth, Texas. Now the question is, Rob.

Rob (12:17.631)
Yeah, that's amazing.

Craig (12:31.73)
Will you be attending the Munzee Mischief in Fort Worth, Texas? How about this?

Rob (12:34.606)
You just straight up dirty all day man. This is bad I was actually just gonna say that I heard someone else who's a friend of the podcast was going to be there I wasn't gonna throw myself out there yet because I don't know yet Yeah

Craig (12:44.864)
True, true, true. Well, I'll say this. I'll say this. You don't know because for obvious reasons, Rob, as well, know, Munzie, they're like, well, it's money value as well. Is it value enough for Rob to be out there at a small event? And it's probably no, you know, 100 % it's a no from you, unless you're already there for other reasons. So Rob, if this event was to sort of have 50 plus on goings, then maybe, maybe you've got more of a pool, just saying. So if you're thinking that...

Rob (13:13.528)
We start getting much closer and we also have people that are more local. They went last year, it was Dylan and Robbie and Wiley and yeah, yeah. So you have that as well, yeah.

Craig (13:15.655)
Exactly.

Craig (13:20.928)
true, true, true. So hopefully they're get to these ones as well. But the person you're referring to is a person who's just released another video on YouTube and that's Minnesota boy, Minnesota boy, Minnesota boy, and his video counterpart, W. Helen as well. So he's released a new video as well. So there you go. All right, after that we have in Florida, of course, in January 16th to 19th, it's the Munzey Mecca.

Rob (13:33.955)
Ha

Craig (13:49.152)
And there's 21 attendees there so far. So let's get that number up as well. And as we said last week, and we'll say forever on that January in Florida is nice. So, and to end out this, what's coming up in terms of big events, we're talking about the Munzee Quest and Block Party, January 25th and 26th in Sydney, Australia coinciding with the GeoQuest Geocaching Mega Block Party.

Rob (13:58.808)
Very nice.

Craig (14:12.928)
This will grow as it's done in ACT this year. And so far there's 11, but I'm sure they're to be more and more and more the quicker that builds up. So don't forget if you've got a host, if you're hosting event, reach out and I'll have a look and we can talk from there. So Rob, this week, what's happened this week, mate? What's happening this week?

Rob (14:30.688)
Well, where should we start? With the big, huge elephant in the room, or what's behind them? okay. Alright, cool.

Craig (14:35.456)
Yes. Yeah. No, no elephant first elephant. Get that out. Tear off the bandaid, mate. Tear off the bandaid. was for those people who don't know what we're talking about. We're talking about how slow things were over the weekend, you know, and it was, it was slow. people were timing it. I was timing it as well. And I was getting, you know, back and forth with you a few times and, just, and to support to give you timings. It was coming up on average about 12 seconds to actually cap like a skyline that had, had,

had virtuals in it. So what was happening with all that Rob in the backend?

Rob (15:07.17)
Yeah, so we definitely saw an increase in the time related to a lot of captures. It wasn't necessarily every single capture. It wasn't all players. It was something that was happening.

Specifically what we have found and we've already put I think two fixes in place But it's actually stuff that that has been around for a year since we switched over to the new system So I'm truly I'm gonna give a bunch of information here Just just so that everyone understands because not not trying to hide anything So we had some things that that stuck around from when we moved over to v2

that dealt with magnets and that dealt with resorts, or sorry, not resorts, destinations, different types of them. More treehouse than Skyland. However, a lot of the others were impacted as well for speed. So we've already put several fixes in place and the thing that we know is the biggest testing that will happen with it is when we have massive, massive gameplay again because

We were absolutely breaking records, hourly breaking some records. Our team was watching everything on Friday and basically saying, how are we getting numbers this big already? So we knew that Saturday was gonna be big. The team was active in monitoring. I was very active in relaying information that was coming in to me. Thankfully, you know, I was home.

Craig (16:25.098)
Mm

Rob (16:51.822)
was in the UK so we were working on those things in the in the early hours of the MHQ day is that right yeah because because I was up at like 8 which is to MHQ time you know so so we were we were doing what we could the the thing that we focused on most I have to say is keeping the whole thing going so even though

Speed was an issue. We didn't get many reports about being unable to play, period. And that's kind of where all the focus went. We, we, we mega -sized everything over the course of the weekend, starting on Friday, in order to try and, try and prepare, try and damn everything up so that it would hold.

And so pleased that it held. Wish that the speed had been better for everyone and we're working through all of it first before we come out with, okay, now here's some future plans. Not looking at anything major, major, major like let's see if we can burn the servers down again anytime soon.

Craig (17:50.826)
Ha ha.

Mm

Mm

Craig (18:05.556)
Mm

Craig (18:12.512)
No, no, and I've kind of gathered that over the last few months, I will say, if you look back people, because this is what I did, I looked back and had a look, and you started off by having double points on certain items, flats and virtuals and whatever else as well, and then you came out with that one day triple points for everyone, for instance, that one day or whatever it was, and that's all it was, you see, and I was like, whoa, and no, that's right, it was for mailbox holders.

And so again, not everyone's a mailbox holder. So you're slowly putting more and more pressure onto this system to see. And so yeah, last weekend was, I can see, and everyone can tell by the number, by numbers, numbers don't lie, purely by the numbers that it was the biggest stress factor on your servers, on your system, on your code, on everything. I'll be honest, Rob, I don't know. I'm not in that.

Rob (19:01.806)
My body, my mind.

Craig (19:06.718)
realm, I got no idea what you're talking about when you talk about code and breaking and all, but I can only visualize, you know, how, how busy you guys are, let alone the fact that people play on androids on iPhones and they play on iPhone twos, threes, fours, let alone the fifteens, you know I mean? So I can just, I can just imagine what's happening in the backend. So a big, big round of applause though to Munzee because it didn't break people. did not break. It slowed down. It was frustrating to some.

Rob (19:10.486)
yeah.

Rob (19:21.312)
Yeah.

Craig (19:35.53)
but it didn't break. that's the most important thing for everyone. yeah, again, congratulations to everyone on getting big, big numbers for yourself and for your account. So there you go. Rob, any stats, et cetera, that you want to, that you know of that you want to sort of let us know?

Rob (19:52.63)
I can't even tell you, well, I don't have any specific numbers pulled. our records are easy to see as far as the millionaires. We didn't hit any highest points ever on a day record because that one was set so high. You know, yeah, but.

Craig (19:55.392)
No, fair enough. Fair enough.

Craig (20:04.892)
Mm hmm. Yes.

Yeah.

That was high. the only other thing I could think about too, Rob, and this would put stress as well on the system. And that is the amount of deploys that was happening too, thanks to Cuppa Zee Gardens. So like, you know, you did put that pressure on yourselves as well by getting the Cuppa Zee Gardens out there just beforehand. And, you know, I'll be honest, Rob, I was at my event in Jersey here itself. And, and yes, I gave out a couple of referral cards on my trip around too. And, and also I was there and I kind of gave a little bit of a tutorial.

Rob (20:21.4)
Yeah. Yeah.

Craig (20:42.368)
on one -on -one tutorial with a few of them there about the Kaposi gardens and all of a sudden now there's one person I won't name her because she's done a great job but she's she deployed 30 30 pins in my garden that's got near 500 pins left she's put deployed 30 that afternoon that afternoon 30 pins there we go thanks very much for that she knows who she is so there we go all right let's now get to this week what's happened this week itself

Rob (20:59.662)
How?

Wow. Yeah.

Craig (21:09.316)
And I'm gonna start off, we're gonna keep it sour Rob. We're gonna call it the wine cooler because that's what it was. It really was the wine cooler. And it was all, yeah, but it was all because of you Rob, I'll be honest, because you didn't tell everyone what was going on and what mons you're doing and you weren't open and transparent. We're talking, if you don't understand, if you haven't been on the water cooler, then we're talking about the flat scatters.

Rob (21:13.166)
grapes grapes wine yeah got it

Craig (21:34.996)
People were out there worrying about the flat scatters, what was available to them, what wasn't available to them. Some people didn't even know that the flat disc golfs of the weekend before were part of the points. people, you you guys, you do, you put it out on social media, you put it in the blog, et cetera. So have, if you don't get any of that, all I'll say is this, submit to the Woody Claude, you put it out as the blog and email.

the emails blog and you can get an email as soon as it comes out from headquarters. You don't need to be on social media. You don't need to be any of that sort of stuff. Just get it on email and you can read it at your own leisure. So there you go. But Rob, so let's talk about this. Firstly, firstly, the flat scatter points themselves were a level three group requirement. This is what I saw. They were a level three group requirement which you can't actually complete until the 18th of August anyway due to days of play. I know, right?

Rob (22:05.198)
Okay.

Rob (22:31.808)
What? That almost sounds like planning. That's so weird.

Craig (22:34.608)
I know, I know. I'll say this and that is, and I've said this on the water cooler as well, that people need to trust in the process and they do need to trust in you, Rob, because you are the creator of clan requirements. You are, you've said that several times on this podcast. So they need to trust in you. There are some people out there that don't have any trust in Munzee at all. And to them I say, well, why are you still playing? But anyway, there has been a couple, and I'll name a couple of these as well.

Rob (22:49.048)
Yeah. Yeah.

Rob (22:57.484)
Yeah.

Craig (23:02.964)
that Toxin, Toxin is out there and he suspected Rob, this is before it come out, he suspected that Flat Lou's were gonna scatter due to the Tour de France Femmes that it's actually now on. Then, then after that, Hazel, Hazel noticed that Lou was one of the rewards for level two. my goodness, is that planned as well? Wow!

Rob (23:24.11)
You mean the timing of right about two days ago when the event started? That's so weird. Keep going!

Craig (23:29.276)
Yes. So I was going to say, so if you get your level two requirements, you obtain a flat loo to put out the day of the flat loo scatters go live. So wow, that's incredible. And then Rob, I noticed, I noticed this personally, and I saw put on the wine cooler as well, water cooler as well. And that is that flat loos in Cuppa Sea gardens are available cheaper than they are anywhere else.

they're available to redeem for 400 Zs instead of 450 Zs. So, you know, what do you, I know, right? I know. put in, I did put in a support to say, is that correct? Is that the price correct? Just to make sure, cause you know, and yeah, no, you said it's correct. It's not a problem. So I went, okay, that's good. So.

Rob (24:12.898)
Yeah, I'm also in charge of the Cup of Zee Gardens Redeem section. So yeah, that was on purpose and people should consider it like a Cup of Zee Gardens launch special because that's only been live for just over a week now. By the time people are listening, it'll be a little more than that, nearly two weeks. But yeah, it isn't gonna stay that way forever. So stay tuned and.

Craig (24:20.867)
Mm

Craig (24:27.304)
Mm -hmm. Yeah.

Craig (24:31.683)
Mm

Craig (24:39.687)
No. No.

Rob (24:41.374)
That's one of the things, the only other thing really that's happened this week is that we've had the Flatloo Scatters that have started and gone out. There was an issue with the fancy Flatloo Scatters, that's been fixed now. Everyone who's looking for that clan requirement, this is your week. So by the time you're listening, if it's Friday, then you have a couple of days left, don't forget. And yeah, there you go.

Craig (24:48.756)
Mm -hmm. Yep.

Craig (24:53.642)
Mm -hmm.

Craig (25:01.31)
You got the weekend. Yeah.

Craig (25:07.232)
And just to let everyone know as well, this is a clan war requirement for the higher end levels, okay? It's not for the lower ones, it's for the higher end levels. Level six, you only require 5 ,000 points collectively as your clan group. Collectively as your clan group. So 5 ,000 points. It's not that difficult, people, to be honest with you. If you have a look and join together. If you don't...

If you don't have any around you, reach out to your clan members and say, I don't have a flat loo near me and then deploy for each other. Why? Because the points are capping and cap on. it's not, and deploy. It's not that, no, no, we're talking about the scatters though Rob. We're talking about the scatters. The scatters are cap on and capping as well. So you can both then get towards your goal requirement for the group. Group requirement.

Rob (25:42.315)
And deploy. What?

Rob (25:46.747)
the scatters, that's right.

Craig (25:58.118)
not individual so anyway that's my whining over now let's get to the good stuff let's get to the good stuff rob what's happened this week that's out now which i love

Rob (26:02.574)
I like your rant. Right.

Rob (26:08.814)
Your favorite thing is back! It's every other month and guess what? The new Secret Zee Op has been released. It's called Operation Elemental. Yeah, guess what? It's all about Elemental stuff and it's almost like, yet again, there was some planning involved for August. It's so weird how that keeps happening. It is mental, some might say. Elemental.

Craig (26:21.024)
What? Tell us more, tell us more.

Craig (26:27.176)
Mm

Craig (26:34.803)
You

Mm -hmm.

Rob (26:38.286)
So yeah, it's all about the elements. Get out there, we've got the community elemental challenge going on, so please don't forget about that. As we're recording this, we still need ice mystery points in order to meet that base goal. We haven't made it to 100 ,000 ice mystery points. So if we're still there, yeah, get it. Yeah.

Craig (26:45.856)
Mm

Craig (26:58.01)
And, and Rob. And Rob. All of a sudden, we need ice mystery points. All of a sudden, look at that. There's an ice mystery for cheap redeems in the redeem store. What? I know, I know. See, nothing gets past me, Rob. Nothing gets past me, mate.

Rob (27:08.014)
Guess what? You haven't seen the secret zeop yet, but I can tell you one of the rewards for level one. When you complete mission one in this new operation, guess what one of the rewards is? It's an ice mystery. Because people can get that as early as Thursday. Thursday. So tomorrow for us, you know what it is.

Craig (27:22.628)
Mm hmm. Mm hmm. An elemental. Ice. Very good.

Perfect perfect Yeah yesterday for them and it'll just let everyone know this is a secret zops itself and it can be purchased for 1500 zeds only in the app so within the app itself you get it and at the end of any of secret zops there is normally a mech at the end that you can it deploys fee for you on your behalf when you actually obtain it

Rob (27:37.912)
Good thinking.

Craig (27:57.82)
and then you get the blueprints for it so you can then rebuild these mechs with cogs in your mech redeem store. So there you go. So get your new secret Xeops now. I know I will have mine ASAP. So what else happening Rob before we move on to the questions?

Rob (28:14.498)
So a question for you, do you like surprises?

Craig (28:17.899)
Yes and no.

Rob (28:19.15)
Okay, well, you shouldn't play Munzee if the answer's no, because I've got one more in store. It's coming today, today Friday, and all right, matey, all I choose to say is that it throws back to something we just talked about a few minutes ago. Time to move on now. Goodbye.

Craig (28:25.502)
Mm -hmm. Yeah.

Craig (28:38.56)
Okay, but I like your accent, I can, yes. People don't say this is not a video podcast, but I got the thumbs up from Rob. So, all right, let's moving on now quickly because time's running out. Question of the week. And as I said before, in the start of the show, question is from PJ on the Munzee Maniacs podcast. So PJ, are you ready? Are you listening? And he asked, well, he didn't actually directly ask, but he said, why are the physical cruisies...

Rob (28:45.686)
I don't know.

Craig (29:05.216)
Only worth 100 points when the sleep seas are worth 100 points and are much easier to cap.

Rob (29:12.568)
Wow, that's a great question.

Well, probably that's how we made them up a long time ago. Something for me to think about, obviously. So, Sam, that sounds like something for us to think about, doesn't it? All right, now that Sam knows, I bet we'll think more on it. Good quick.

Craig (29:18.032)
Yes.

Craig (29:29.566)
There you go PJC, there you go. People don't understand Rob. Chuck, we don't have any stupid questions. Chuck them all in and some sticks dumb don't, we'll soon see. Meanwhile, like this one here is the Munzee requests of the week and you like this one. This one is direct from the wine cooler and it says, Rob, please tell us everything at the start of the Clan Wars each month to allow us to budget our time for the month.

Rob (29:54.446)
Do you want that with or without the mint on your...

Rob (30:04.322)
That's my question to everyone.

Craig (30:07.796)
There we go, so that's a no, dare say, it Rob? That's a no. For now, for now.

Rob (30:09.646)
For now, I tell you what, let's see. I'll try to be nicer. There you go.

Craig (30:16.032)
There you go. There you go people. He's gonna try and be nicer. But anyway, we're gonna end this podcast with the Munzee tip of the week. And this tip is from you Rob this time. You let us know the tip, mate. What's the tip from you?

Rob (30:28.684)
I personally am having so much fun with Cup -a -Z Gardens that I really just want to remind everyone, we've said it so many times, but Cup -a -Z is there for all of your gardening needs. You want to learn how to build a garden? Sam's made it very, very easy. If you want to start deploying in them, it's even easier, honestly. If you've never tried Cup -a -Z, you're missing out. You can use it for everything Munzee related. Please, please just give it a try. That's it.

Craig (30:58.336)
Perfect, perfect. If people don't know, yeah, you can download Cuppa Z. It's a different app. Download it in the app store or the Play Store, wherever you get your apps from. Cuppa Z is very, very easy to use. And I'll just say that Munzee and Cuppa Z is a match made in heaven. And they do go hand in hand. It's like king and queen. It's like, you know, the whole lot. it's, yeah, you need Cuppa Z in order to get ahead in this game. So Rob, that ends another official Munzee podcast.

Rob (31:25.358)
Thanks for joining us on this Munzee adventure.

Craig (31:28.67)
Don't forget to subscribe, rate and review on your favourite podcasting app and of course join us for another episode next week.

Rob (31:35.146)
And remember, Munzee is more than a game, it's a worldwide community of mobile game players.

Craig (31:40.49)
So keep scanning, keep discovering, keep that Munzey spirit alive. One, two, three, wine on. No, don't, Munzey on, Munzey on, Munzey on.

Rob (31:44.47)
Munzeon! no. Munzeon. Thanks everyone! Bye.
