July 2020 GOTM Winners + August POTM Requirements!

This month we’ve been going whole hog with our Camp Munzee Birthday Celebration! So far we’ve been seeing great progress made by all camps, though Camp FrEEZ is looking like the one to beat! We also celebrated National Hammock Day and released some new Myth Variant capture badges earlier in the month! We are now happy to announce the winners of the July Garden of the Month (GOTM), give a reminder for July Player of the Month (POTM), and announce the criteria for August POTM! The badges for July GOTM and POTM will be awarded in early August, but we couldn’t wait to share the winners we’ve chosen!

July GOTM

When choosing July GOTM, we tried to choose gardens that fit our summer camp theme! Remember that all winning GOTM organizers and all players who deployed in the winning gardens will be awarded special badges for their contribution to growing the map. This month we’re happy to award the Jeeper’s Jeep Garden, designed by gargoyle18, and Ladybug Garden, designed by Laczy76, as our winning July GOTM! The gardens will appear as follows:

Jeeper’s Jeep by gargoyle18 in Clinton, NJ

Do you own a jeep? Is it your vehicle of choice when heading to a newly-deployed munzee?

A jeep is a vehicle for adventures! Whether it be camping, going on safari, or a humble road trip, its rugged design can handle rough roads and all sorts of weather well!

Ladybug Garden by Laczy76 in Komárno, Slovakia

The bright colors are striking (and not an indicator of poison, thankfully) and they don’t have too many legs, eyes, or other features that put the “creepy” in “creepy crawlie”!

Most bugs are pretty polarizing — you either feel grossed out or are fascinated by them! However, the ladybug is one of the lucky few that is appreciated by most (if not all) due to its cute appearance.

All players who deployed in the respective winning gardens will receive the following special badges:

Rules for GOTM nominations:

  1. Garden must feature non-licensed character designs.
  2. The garden must feature a Garden Places Pin.
  3. The garden must be built using a publicly available spreadsheet which we will ask to be locked after being 100% deployed.
  4. We’re asking for ongoing nominations and we will release the winners throughout the year.

Send your nomination for GOTM to iloveyou@munzee.com! Keep in mind that we take all former nominations into consideration for upcoming months. Just be sure your garden follows the nomination rules in order to be considered eligible!

If you need help deploying in a Virtual Garden, you can check out this step-by-step tutorial that will making deploying in a garden easy no matter how long you’ve been playing. To fill in the gardens, make sure to stock up on Virtuals and Color Credits from the Freeze Tag Online Store.

July POTM

July’s POTM called for nominations for players who would make great Camp Munzee Counselors due to their years of Munzee experience and wealth of Munzee knowledge! There’s still time to send in your nominations — please fill out this Google Form for every user you’d like to nominate: https://forms.gle/8h6sUqqX2inE5h4r9 Separate nominations for each user makes it easier for us to award the badges!

Congratulations to all the nominees! You can expect to see the badge in early August. If you weren’t nominated this time, maybe this coming month’s POTM will work out better for you. Keep reading to find out!

Thank you for sharing your picks for Camp Munzee Counselors! We love honoring players who’ve supported the game, not only by playing, but by being a resource for other players as well!

August POTM Requirements

This month, we wanted to feature players on the opposite end of the spectrum — the new kids who are a welcome addition to the Munzee community!

Do you know a Rising Star? Send us your nominations for POTM based on players who’ve recently started playing Munzee and have been kicking butt! Please fill out this Google Form for every user you’d like to nominate: https://forms.gle/o1SQfMHv93w2v8WL9 Separate nominations for each user makes it easier for us to award the badges!

As in the previous months, this unique POTM badge is eligible for any player to earn regardless of previous wins. The badge will appear as follows:

We also wanted to share with you a special, one-of-a-kind badge we’ve created for CuppaZee developer sohcah! He’s done a great job with the Camp Competition Leaderboard so we felt this would be a good way to thank him!

We hope you’re excited for what August has in store!

Munzee on!
