Eine Spreefahrt, die ist lustig,
eine Spreefahrt, die ist schoen,
ja da kann man tolle Sachen
und viele Flaggen auf der Karte seh´n.
Holahi, holaho, holahia, hia, hia, holaho!
We think it’s better not to translate this old German traditional folk song… What it wants to tell you? It’s an invitation to the capital city of Germany - Berlin…!
Captain Ummi had the idea for this LAB (Local Area Badge) and invites you to a special city tour to Berlin. Discover the German capital from the water and get to know the metropolis with "new eyes". You pass the most beautiful sights and can enjoy a mild breeze of Berlin and maybe even an original Berliner Weisse. Collect all 17 special icons on the map and get this badge with 1,700 extra points. If you succeed, this badge will always remind you of an unforgettable day in Berlin! Come to Berlin this Whitsun weekend and grab the badge as one of the first!
We are pleased to present you a new LAB (Local Area Badge) in Germany. Many thanks to DasUmmi (DE) for the great idea and preparation!
Are there also beautiful landscapes or special buildings in your area that deserve to make it big with a LAB? Then send your suggestions to lab@flagstack.net and we will create a unique LAB together!
We are happy to receive ideas for individual sights at poi@flagstack.net
It can be an entire country? Then send your idea to cob@flagstack.net and we will contact you!

It's that time again... We celebrate the next FLAGSTACK record! Have you heard it yet? Meanwhile there was the 16 millionth capture at FLAGSTACK!
When and where?
In the morning of 17 May 2018 near Heilbronn on the A81 at the Grafenwald motorway car park
Who and what?
Ellikatz (DE) has captured a lot and placed the latest record badge on a Green Flag from Border (DE)
Well? More records? Sure...!
It happened on the quiet. Since the first day at the top, and now the perpetual No.1 has made it - Captain-Flag (DE) leaves the field behind and is the first player in the world to reach level 100 in FLAGTSTACK!
A sincere respect for this achievement - in both cases! Surely Captain-Flag is an outstanding player and tireless in deploying and capturing flags. And yet records at FLAGSTACK are an excellent overall achievement of a really, really great community... EVERY capture counts... EVERY deploy counts… EVERY capture-on counts... EVERY player counts... This game is so much fun because everyone in the community makes a big contribution!
We keep our fingers crossed that, maybe next month, YOU will be lucky enough to secure the next million record!

One morning in 1776, the time had come: 13 British colonies in North America proclaimed their independence from Great Britain, the American Declaration of Independence was read out to the public and the Liberty Bell rang. A very moving moment in history for the United States of America and the whole world!
A few years later, in the early summer of 2018, the city of Philadelphia (US) wakes up again and realizes: something's different... At dawn you can guess the sound of the Liberty Bell on the horizon. Its sound echoes again through the "City of Brotherly Love". Do you have any idea how?
cbassy (US) invites you to travel through time to one of the most important cities of the United States of America and discover Philadelphia. Follow the sound of the Liberty Bell on the FLAGSTACK map and capture at least 21 of 25 special icons. As a reward, the unique badge with 2,100 extra points awaits you. And if you like, you can also have an original "Iconic Cheesesteak Sandwich" on the way...
We are pleased to present you a new LAB (Local Area Badge) in the USA. Many thanks to cbassy for the great idea and preparation!
Are there also beautiful landscapes or special buildings in your area that deserve to make it big with a LAB? Then send your suggestions to lab@flagstack.net and we will create a unique LAB together!
We are happy to receive ideas for individual sights at poi@flagstack.net
It can be an entire country? Then send your idea to cob@flagstack.net and we will contact you!
Freedom is one of the highest goods for people - may we never forget this...

Did you already plan your summer vacation in Croatia to collect the badge for the 2 millionth flag? Luckily you waited a moment - because now your trip to Croatia is worth it twice!
DrZagy (HR) - yes, again - has made it to deploy the 2.5 millionth flag in Croatia after the 2 millionth!
When and where?
In the afternoon of 08.May 2018, in the north-east of Croatia
Who and what?
DrZagy (HR) has certainly set his sights on bringing this record back home. The prize was 60 minutes double deployment points...
What are the reasons for travelling to Croatia? It's a great vacation spot. There are interesting areas and hospitable people. And on top you'll find there the 2 millionth and 2.5 millionth deploy badge. Best part of all? These two badges are less than 40 kilometers apart.
Congratulations to you guys! It is your common MEGA PERFORMANCE as a great FLAGSTACK community that there are already so many flags all over the world! Just keep up the good work... :)
The FHQ sends its best regards from your

Next weekend the big days arrive - Easter holidays are coming up! And to make sure you're going outside, FLAGSTACK will come up with a fantastic Easter special.
In the course of the upcoming week, we’re going to hide an Easter egg in your inventory. Using the app, you can deploy this Easter egg from Good Friday (30.März 2018, 00:01, timezone Europe / Berlin). Our system automatically hides 40 sweet, small Easter chicks on the map within a radius of 1 km around your current deploy location - and you have to find them! They will become visible on the map when you are close enough to the Easter specials - about 200 meters! By the way, you’ll find them close to roads and footpaths, and only you can see your Easter chicks. You’ll get 40 points for each collected Easter chick, for at least 18 collected Easter chicks you’ll receive a cute Easter badge.
Because so many players were enthusiastic last year, the golden Easter bunny is available for you in our webshop again! This bunny hides automatically 20 golden Easter eggs within 1km around your current deploy location. These Easter eggs are only visible on the map when you get close to them (about 200m)! Contrary to the Easter chicks, other players can also find and capture your golden Easter bunny and the golden Easter eggs. You’ll get additional 4-10 Capture On points for it, and for the Easter bunny or the golden Easter eggs you’ll get 6-40 capture points. For at least 15 captured golden Easter eggs you’ll also receive a great Easter badge. https://www.flagstack.net/shop
Please make sure to have a good GPS signal before the deployment. A review, of whether the road is in a secure area or how good the mobile reception is, cannot be done. It will happen in some cases, that Easter Specials are unreachable. Therefore, there is no legal claim to be able to collect all the Easter Specials. So you will receive more than twice as many specials as for the preservation of the badges are necessary. The promotion of all Easter specials ends on Sunday after Easter (08.April 2018, 23:59, timezone Europe / Berlin).
Of course there are also great offers* with discounts of up to 40% in our webshop https://www.flagstack.net/shop for you at Easter (from Good Friday to Easter Monday). They will change from daily, and the very special offers will only be available by the hour - so you also have to look for them...
Now you have great plans for the long Easter weekend! Go out and collect some sunbeams and unique FLAGSTACK Easter specials and badges... We wish you lots of fun and happy Easter!
Your Team FLAGSTACK
