After spending the afternoon and early evening deploying, I decided it was time to take out two of the new Munzee placed in Leasowes Park by -Ako-. I hate seeing those extra 'greenies' squeezed in amongst the red ones!

It was dark, freezing and I didn't have my gloves with me, so holding the metal torch casing certainly didn't make my hands any warmer! I entered the park via Kent Road and made my way towards Leasowes No.7 by the stream. After about 10-15 minutes walk I reached the area and set about searching. Up and down the muddy bank side I clambered, and up and down the path, as the GPS on the iPhone was all over the place. Eventually, I came across something that matched the clue, a quick look, but no Munzee! So back I went, up and down ... you get the picture.

After 15 minutes search I messaged -Ako-, and sent him a picture of the object I had found with no Munzee, turns out I was probably right and it needed replacing! Oh well, off to the next one, a Mystery one.

About 5-10 minutes later, I approached the area where the Mystery was hidden, a quick look at the clue and it was soon captured, checked the points and only had 10 points awarded, made up for the one I couldn't find earlier I suppose.

Now, I don't know about everyone else who has captured Mystery Munzee, but during the Double Points weekend and thereafter, all the Mystery ones I've captured, have been 10 points each, might only just be a coincidence. How many points have you been awarded for your Mystery Munzee captures? Is it worth capturing the Mystery Munzee?

Team Munzee were at it again, tempting us players to get out and about after the Christmas and New Year festivities, with a Munzee Double Points Weekend, starting on Friday January 13, 01:00hrs CST to Sunday January 15, 00:00hrs CST, but this was extended to Monday January 16, 0:00hrs CST, due to server 'hiccups'.

My captures in total for the weekend were 188, these were from Sutton Park, Merrion's Wood, Dartmouth Park, the Silver & Trees series and Warrens Hall Nature Reserve, which included a pumpkin.

Points scored: 2084 (me)
Ranking At Start: 34
Ranking At End: 34 (Oh well, I did try!)
Total Captures Worldwide: 23,300+
Total Deployed: 7,300+

Finally finished the first part of my new series placed in and around Uffmoor Woods, Halesowen.

This first section has taken several late nights to deploy 28 Munzee, two of them are Mystery, and the others are just the usual. They range from very easy to very hard, well you didn't think the Mysteries would be easy to obtain, did you? Ha! Ha!

Take some good footwear as the area can get quite muddy and you may also get wet feet attempting one or two!

Since the UK's first Munzee meet back in November, I have not been out to capture or deploy, shame on me! But, one thing I have managed to do is order some Mystery Munzee from HQ, and I hope to get out and about soon and deploy a couple of these and maybe throw in a couple of captures as well!
