Best Dressed Christmas Event Contest Entries Gallery

We’ve been loving all the pictures from players at events this month! Seeing smiling faces in such cold weather speaks to how dedicated our community is.

To make sure we haven’t missed any entries for our Best Dressed Contest so far, we’ve decided to collect them all here. Photos are ordered by event time, event title, and lastly, by username. We’ll be updating this post periodically, so make sure to check back here later!

Please contact iloveyou@munzee.com if you had made a social post more than a week ago, but don’t see your photo here. A direct link to your post will make it easy for us to confirm! If you’ve followed our directions, perhaps your post has privacy settings that prevent us from seeing it.

Best Dressed Christmas Event Contest Details!

Let’s see that winter western wear! 

Our Ho Ho Hoedown Christmas events will be kicking off in less than two weeks! So as you’re all preparing to host and attend your festive Munzee Events we wanted to offer some more details about our Best Dressed competition!

In previous years we’ve asked players to show up in their dodgiest jumpers and one lucky attendee would be chosen winner by the host of that event. Well this year we’re shaking it up a bit in hopes to spread the word about our Ho Ho Hoedowns! 

In order to earn this year’s Best Dressed badge you’ll need to share an image of yourself at a Munzee Event in a holiday outfit. Whether that’s a dodgy jumper, a festive Father Christmas getup, or even a superb Snowman suit is entirely up to you! We’ll accept submissions through Instagram, Facebook, or Twitter! In order to win you have to include your username, the event name/location, the hashtag #HoHoHoedown, and tag Munzee. Please note that Christmas events don’t start until December!

As long as you follow the rules and put forth some effort, you’ll be awarded the Best Dressed Christmas badge. This year’s Best Dressed Winners will be awarded this badge featuring the most Christmassy Cowboy in town! 

We’ll share some of our favorite player outfits to the official Munzee social media pages throughout December, but the badge will not be awarded until after the month has wrapped up. Then we’ll add all of the winners to a gallery on the Munzee Blog to announce when the badge has been awarded! 

Don’t forget there’s still time to purchase Christmas Event Packages, but Trish’s diary is filling up so if you want custom artwork you better act fast! We’ve got an exciting month ahead of us, so stay tuned for more holiday shenanigans soon! 

Munzee on and Merry Christmas!

Christmas Events Are Heralding a Ho Ho Hoedown!

It’s almost the most wonderful time of the year! It may seem a bit early, but who doesn’t love to bask in the warm glow of the holidays?! This year we’re happy to offer 4 different package options for Christmas Events to best meet your event hosting needs and budget. And we’re happy to announce that this year’s theme taps into our proud Texas roots. Who’s ready for a Ho Ho Hoedown?!

Never hosted an event before? Fear not! For complete help with hosting your own Munzee Event, you can visit the Help Guide! Christmas Event packages will be available in the Freeze Tag Online Store as of the publication of the blog. However, they are only applicable to events occurring from December 1 to December 31. It’s important to purchase a package as soon as possible so that you can let us know your art request if you’re purchasing a package containing a badge and icon.

Each package features a unique host badge for themed fun, with each badge (pictured above) depending on which package is purchased. The package options are:

All packages also contain an Attendee Badge. You can include an Emerald add on for $20*, an option available for any of the 4 packages. In addition, there will be the opportunity to earn a special badge for dressing up in your best dodgy jumpers or holiday attire! As we get closer to the Christmas Events starting, we’ll have more details about the costume contest, so stay tuned for that fun information!

Ready to really get into the holiday spirit? Below you can find the Attendee Badge that everyone will get:

So get those orders in, events on the calendar, and artwork requests in nice and early please! As Trish’s diary fills up, we will have to move to generic artwork, so act as soon as possible if you are seeking custom art! While you have Christmas Events to look forward to in December, remember that you have until the 27th to purchase Halloween Event packages. These packages can only be applied to events taking place in October!

Once more, the Munzee Events Team is here to walk you through every step of the updated event hosting process, with each detail outlined on the Help Guide for full access. That means it’s the perfect time to tap into your holiday party attitude!

Let’s get into the Christmas spirit!

Munzee on!

*Please note that the Emerald is an add on item that can be purchased through Louise directly AFTER you have purchased a Christmas event package. Simply respond to the “Christmas Event Package Added” email you receive after your purchase and she will send you an invoice

Christmas Events!

It’s that time again! We have just completed the Halloween events so now it’s time to start thinking about Christmas events. This year we are focussing on the Days of Christmas and these special packages are available for events throughout the whole of December.

Please get your events on the calendar and let me know which package you’d like. Each one has a unique host badge:

  • Partridge in a Pear Tree – Basic event and no proximity restrictions – $30
  • Two Turtle Doves – Partridge plus 20 virtuals – $50
  • Three French Hens – Turtle Doves plus badge and icon – $150
  • Four Calling Birds –  French Hens plus Eventzee – $200

We have something very exciting instead of the Emerald giveaway. It’s $20 per event, as usual, but the details will be shared during November. It’s going to be a fun addition attendees will love!

There is a badge to be won at each event for the “Most Christmassy Attendee” too. So dust off your dodgy jumpers or full on Santa costumes! The host will let me know who the winner is and you will feature on the blog.

This is the Attendee Badge that everyone will get and Father Christmas will be paying you a visit too!

So get those events on the calendar, orders in and artwork requests in nice and early please. As Trish’s diary fills up we will have to move to generic artwork.

If you’ve never hosted a Munzee event before don’t worry, I will guide you through the whole process and I look forward to working with you. If you’ve hosted before I look forward to working with you again!
Munzee On!

Christmas Parties Are About to Begin!

‘Twas the month of December and planning was in full swing.
Holiday parties were starting, which made Louise sing.

The events were lined out, on the calendar for all to see.
If yours isn’t on there, submit it so others can join in on the glee.

Dodgy Jumpers were dusted off for their yearly wear.
The dodgiest of all earn a special badge for their flair.
Remember Hosts, to submit your best.
We want to award the winners who show the most fest.

Santa’s Sack was loaded to the brim with prizes,
For Hosts it’s just an extra $20 for rewards of all sizes.
It’s never too late to add in this present,
Just email Louise, because it’s money well spent.

So as we begin this glorious time of year,
Here’s a little sneak peak of a badge-worthy reindeer!

Christmas Parties Are In Full Swing!

We’re halfway through the month of December, and the Munzee Christmas Parties are in full swing! Rob, Matt, Louise, Daniel Hammock, and Daniel Fischer have all attended events already this month! Matt will also be attending the Metro Vancouver Post Holiday Cap’ing event on December 27th, and he’s excited!

In less than two weeks, 1140 players have capped the Father Christmas special, and we have another 17 events happening worldwide in the next 7 days! We can’t wait to see the outcome of them! Also, if you haven’t checked it out yet, the Dodgy Jumper gallery is live! We’re adding more images as we get them, so check it out!

These events have given us some crazy capture numbers, too! Matt stopped by the office around 3PM MHQ time on Saturday, and there were over 103,000 captures! We want to thank everyone who has hosted and/or attended an event for growing the game!

The Christmas Parties Are Beginning!

So here we are, it’s December! The Munzee Christmas Parties start tomorrow. We are very excited about everything planned. What a fantastic Munzee Community we have. There are 24 events just in the next 7 days! Don’t forget to check the calendar at https://calendar.munzee.com/ to see if there is one near you! If there isn’t, don’t worry, it’s not too late to host one yourself. Add it to the calendar or contact me directly at louise@munzee.com if you are having difficulties.

I have some important information relating to some of the features of the Christmas Parties, these two points are for all attendees to all parties:

  • Be sure to capture the Event Indicator Munzee at the event you attend. Your host has the code. This not only gives you the Event Indicator special icon, it will also give you the Christmas Party Attendee badge and a little surprise from Father Christmas.
  • Be sure to wear your best festive gear if you would like a chance at winning the Dodgy Jumper competition. Hosts will be submitting a player name and photo after the event. That player and the hosts will get the Dodgy Jumper badge. Hosts: just because you will be getting the badge for nominating someone else doesn’t mean you don’t have to make an effort!

Most events have taken the Lucky Dip option. This is a $20 add on that turns a specified Munzee into a magic Munzee that gives a credit item from the past, present or future every time it is capped. If you would like to add this to your event, please let me know ASAP.

Lastly, I would like to thank you all for your support with events. Your enthusiasm and efforts involved in them as hosts and attendees is fantastic and I look forward to growing the game, the map and the community even more with you all. Have a wonderful time this month and I can’t wait to hear all about it and see all those dodgy pictures!!

Cheers and Merry Christmas, Louise x

Cut Off Date for Customised Christmas Events

We’ve been overwhelmed with the response for Christmas Party events. The amount of submissions is requiring us to make a cut off date so that all requested customised badges and icons can be completed in time. No further submissions for customised badges and icons for December will be accepted after 17:00 CST tomorrow, November 4th.

 

We have, however, drawn up generic badges and icons that can be customised with event names so that hosts can still be in for the Artful Dodger and/or Full Turkey Dinner levels. We want to make sure we provide the best service possible, so please contact Louise straight away if you’re interested in fully customised artwork for your December event.

 

Also, it seems some event submissions aren’t going through correctly, so if you have attempted to contact us for an event and haven’t heard back, please email Louise directly at louise@munzee.com so she can get your request in before the cut off time.

 

Thank you, and grow the map!
