Happy Easter 2022

Did you see it out of the corner of your eye? The Easter Bunny just hopped by....

Next weekend it is time for a nice long Easter weekend! There will be lots of sunshine, a good mood and lots of goodies.

Of course, we offer you good reasons for Easter walks! From 11 to 25 April 2022 (all day in the FHQ/Europe/Berlin time zone) you will not only find Easter eggs in your neighbor's garden, but first of all amusing Easter specials on the FLAGSTACK map :)
Collect at least 200 of these little Easter specials and hop - the award will hop into your achievements collection (even multiple times if you can do it)!

Is your Homezone already empty? Then get a second chance and hop - there's a lot going on on the map again :)
Would you like to put some specials in your FLAGSTACK friends' homezone? Then hop over to the webshop, get some new flags, and deploy them via the website at the desired location.
Do you still need a gift for Easter? Create a nice shopping cart at FLAGSTACK and send it as a gift - just enter the desired name at the checkout, confirm, and hop - the flags just made their way into the desired inventory! https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ReB8T9b93fA
Hop - this way to the webshop  https://flagstack.net/shop

Chop, chop - that's what we told some golden Easter bunnies... We at FLAGSTACK Headquarters have stashed a golden Easter bunny for free (= no cost = mega super) in the inventory of FLAGHUNTERs with a one-year premium membership!

For all FLAGHUNTERs (with or without premium membership) there are even more golden easter bunnies in the webshop. You don't even have to hunt for them, just click on the link and they'll hop right in front of your nose...

You can deploy your golden Easter bunny via the app from 11.04.2022. The Easter Bunny hides 40 golden Easter eggs on the map within a 1 km radius of your current deployment location - and you can seek them! They only appear on the map when you get close - about 200 meters - to these Easter Eggs! You will find them on roads and footpaths, and amazingly: other FLAGHUNTERS can also find your golden Easter eggs! For every Easter egg capture, you will randomly receive 6-40 capture points. For at least 32 collected Easter eggs, an Easter badge with 3,200 bonus points will be magically added to your achievement collection. And if someone captures your golden Easter eggs, you will randomly receive 4-10 capture-on points! Can you find more than 32 golden eggs? Just get the badge 2 times or 3 times or as many times as you want!

Have fun with the Easter event...
Your Team FLAGSTACK

PS: As always, please make sure you have a good GPS signal before deploying - preferably outside the door and where you want to and are able to collect the Easter Specials. As it is not possible to check whether the street is in a security area or how good the mobile reception is, it can happen in individual cases that these Easter Specials are not available. Therefore, there is no legal claim to collect all Easter Specials. And therefore, you will receive many more Specials as necessary to receive the badge.

PPS: This year, the following types of flags are hiding behind the Easter Specials: Happy Holiday, Green Flags, White Flags, Oracle Flags, Adventure Flags and Golden Easter Eggs.

PPPS: The Spring Challenge is running parallel to the Easter event. Just capture everything that enters the capture radius on the FLAGSTACK map :)

Wonders of Nature: A Butterfly's Metamorphosis


Hello spring!
Welcome, all you flowers and insects!

Pull out the magnifying glass, naturalist: Here we go to see the metamorphosis of a butterfly!

From 01.April to 31.May 2022 (all day, time zone FHQ/Europe/Berlin) Eternal Flags on the FLAGSTACK map turn into flowers that attract small insects. You must look closely to discover them - so zoom into the map and be curious about what's around...

Furthermore, more and more butterflies are flying around. They especially like landing at Jumper Hubs or Force Fields - seems that they smell incredibly good ;)
Capture all the insects and butterflies you can. While doing so, you can watch an egg turn into probably the most beautiful butterfly you've ever seen. And how? Keep checking your achievement specials regularly, or be surprised by a total of 4 awards that pop up one by one as you collect insects and butterflies!

You want to breed FLAGSTACK butterflies and set them free on the map? Perfect - visit the FLAGSTACK Fanshop ! You can order your own butterfly breed there.
This will help the community go through the metamorphosis of the butterfly faster and be able to catch the magnificent butterfly multiple times! As a thank you for your generous support, you will receive capture and deploy points, as well as a very special additional award.

By the way, our recent stress test for the Jumper Flags was more than successful, so look forward to a huge swarm of butterflies :)
Oh, and please be careful when capturing the butterflies - they will likely fly away as soon as you touch them...

Insects and butterflies are not enough animals? You can find butterfly attractants (Jumper Hubs and Force Fields) as well as golden Easter bunnies in the FLAGSTACK webshop ...!

Are you looking forward to spring? We are happy if this challenge can put a smile on your face :)
Your Team FLAGSTACK

PS: Long Story Short
All day in the period 01.04.-31.05.2022 (time zone FHQ/Europe/Berlin) insects appear on the map after capturing Eternal Flags. Additionally, Jumper Flags look like butterflies. Collect insects and butterflies to reach 4 badge levels. These will show you the metamorphosis of a butterfly.
You can order Jumper Flags in the FLAGSTACK Fanshop, and you will receive an additional award.

Spring has come!


And we have some news for you for the spring season...

All FLAGHUNTERs together have reached major capture milestones over the past few weeks. You have now broken the 40 million captures record!

Who & Where?
TheIslander (perfect name if you live on the huge island of Australia) has pinned the flag with the 40 million reward right at Cussen Park in Tatura... A small village south-west of Shepparton and north of Melbourne becomes world-famous this way :)
On 19. March 2022 TheIslander has won 30 Green Flags and the badge for this Capture Reward as well - congratulations all the way to Down Under!
So, if you also want to get this badge, take the opportunity for extensive walks in this wonderful scenery...
The flag can be found here

Voucher update: Due to high demand from players, any vouchers you win will have a validity of 180 days from 01. April 2022. For example, the voucher codes you win on a Capture or Deploy reward. In case of such winnings, you will always receive a mail in your mailbox. From 01. April 2022 you will also find the validity date in this mail, allowing you to better plan your shopping experience :) and to ensure that no voucher codes are forgotten. By the way: this also is retroactive for won voucher codes. If you haven't redeemed an attractive discount yet, NOW is the right time to do it!

Enjoy the spring season with your Spring Challenge "Wonders of Nature: A Butterfly's Metamorphosis" starting on 01. April 2022.
Do you still remember all the evolutionary stages of a butterfly? From 01.04. to 31.05.2022 you can refresh your knowledge here at FLAGSTACK...
It's buzzing and humming on the FLAGSTACK map, butterflies are flying from flower to flower, and you can earn a total of 4 awards by watching these little creatures. As a big reward for the final badge, you can expect the most beautiful butterfly you've probably ever seen!

To ensure there are as many butterflies as possible buzzing around on the map, you can order your own little frequent flyers beforehand in the FLAGSTACK FANSHOP. This allows the community to go through the metamorphosis of the butterfly faster and to reach the magnificent butterfly multiple times! To thank you for your generosity, you will receive the Capture and Deploy points, of course, as well as a very special additional badge. Please check the fan shop - soon the first butterflies will be fluttering around... (https://flagstack.help/fan-shop/)

Are you looking forward to spring? We are happy if this challenge can put a smile on your face :)

No stress for St. Patrick's Day

St. Patrick's Day will be celebrated on the 17th of March. Not only in Ireland people go crazy and turn everything green to honor the national saint ... No, this custom has many friends all over the world!

FLAGSTACK doesn't want to stress you out with a St. Patrick's Day event... No, we just want to stress ourselves out and do a stress test!

What does it mean for you?
This year's St. Patrick's Day event takes place from 14 to 20 March ( all-day, time zone FHQ/Europe/Berlin). We, the FHQ, will deploy 1,000 new Jumper Flags every day, to reach a total of about 15,000 Jumper Flags jumping around the world on the map. Thanks to the latest optimizations in the background, we are pretty sure that the systems will be able to handle this amount...

What's in it for you?
Lots of new Jumper Flags as gold coins to be collected by you :)


As a thank you for your participation in this stress test, you will receive a badge if you collect at least 210 Jumper Flags (no matter which appearance) in the above-mentioned period!

 

Are you prepared for this Jumper Flag crowd? Keywords: Jumper Hub, Force Fields, Personal Happy Hour... ;)

Have fun in the gold coin rain!
Your Team FLAGSTACK

PS: Long Story Short
From 14-20 March ( all-day, time zone FHQ/Europe/Berlin), Jumper Flags shaped like gold coins will be deployed by FHQ to test the systems. Collect at least 210 Jumper Flags (no matter which appearance) and receive the badge for participating in the stress test.
You can get your little personal helpers to attract Jumper Flags or to benefit from the points in the webshop

Peace starts with a smile....

We don't like to be political... But on the occasion of the inconceivable Ukraine war, we make an exception.

We want to show our solidarity and compassion to those who live in unsafe areas around the world. Those who suffer from the effects of wars, dictators, despots, and inhumane conditions.

Until further notice, the Jumper Flags will fly around the world as peace doves on the map. You can support this initiative and release peace doves by deploying your Jumper Flags!

Maybe you won 1, 2 or even more Jumper Flags from the recent Game Card Challenge? NOW is a good time to send them around the world as peace signs....

Starting on 26.02.2022, you will receive a badge as a thank you and as a reminder if you deploy at least 5 Jumper Flags, Jumper Flags + or even Jumper Hubs. This campaign will run as long as the Jumper Flags appear as peace doves on the map, i.e. for an indefinite period of time.

May we never forget our good situation and to be grateful for the circumstances we live in. Peace is fragile, as we have just unfortunately experienced.


Let's protect it!

Penguins, the beloved messengers of Valentine's Day...

You've probably wondered what penguins have to do with Valentine's Day?!

Before the search engines run hot, this is the answer: Up to now? Nothing at all.

You are disappointed by this answer? Well, we can't accept this - let's think up a story for you:

In our part of the world, it is usually quite cold around Valentine's Day. That's where penguins feel incredibly comfortable, even without scarf or beanie. Furthermore, penguins on land seem so clumsy, and that's why they warm our hearts when we see them - and this in turn perfectly suits Valentine's Day.

And, by the way, only when the Valentine's Day penguins are in a really good mood, they take off their beanie and the little wiggly hearts appear :)


Can't enter FLAGSTACK nurseries because of a pollen allergy? If so, the "Be my Valentine 2022 Special" challenge is just what you need!

Visit the FLAGSTACK webshop to get the FLAGSTACK Armor, after deploying it will drop a total of 30 Valentine's Penguins around you. By capturing at least 14 of these friendly contemporaries, we here at FLAGSTACK hope we have helped you to feel a little happier and on top of that you'll get the "Be my Valentine 2022 Special" award!

Armor will be out in the service of love all day from 14-28 Feb 2022 (FHQ/Europe/Berlin time zone). During this time, you can deploy Armors and then pet - ahem, collect - the penguins.

If you want to share feelings of happiness, you can give Armors as a gift via the FLAGSTACK webshop! You can enter a player’s name at the end of the checkout to give the cart as a gift. It' s that simple :)

Have a wonderful Valentine's time

Your Team FLAGSTACK

PS:

Long Story short

In the webshop https://flagstack.net/shop you get the "Be mine Valentine!" shaped like a cupid. After deployment, the cupid will drop 30 penguins. If you capture at least 14 of the 30 penguins, you get the badge. You can get this badge multiple times. Campaign period: 14.-28.02.22 (all day, time zone FHQ/Europe/Berlin)

 

PPS:

As always, please make sure you have a good GPS signal before deploying - preferably outside the door and where you want to and can collect the Valentine's Specials. Since there is no way to check whether the street is in a security area or how good the mobile reception is, it may happen in individual cases that these Valentine's Specials are not available. Therefore, there is no legal claim to be able to collect all Valentine's Specials. And that's why many more specials will be given to you than are necessary to receive the badge.

Combination with any discounts, vouchers and rebates is not possible, except gift vouchers. The discount is not payable in cash. Only available for orders placed via the website. It is currently not possible to order with voucher and/or discounts via apps.

Watch out, it's Valentine's Day again SOON!

So that you don't panic, or - just before the stores close - buy a kitschy chocolate figurine for your sweetheart out of sheer desperation, you may hereby feel reminded: this year you planned to organize a self-picked and self-tied bouquet of flowers, after all....

"WHAAAAT?" You're asking yourself now... "I have to go outside? In this bad weather, when nothing grows out there that’s close to being presentable anyway?"

Hey, calm down! We'll tell you where to find the most beautiful flowers in the world and what makes every walk out there worthwhile:

The Eternal Flag turns into your favorite nursery until 20 February! Only there you will get the most beautiful flowers for your Valentine's Day gift!

Going to an Eternal Flag, you virtually stand in front of the FLAGSTACK nursery. You will find everything you need for your bunch of flowers. By capturing you enter the nursery. Of course, you want to take a close look at the beautiful flowers you need for your bunch - so please zoom into the map after the capture and the flowers will be on the screen... You like them all? Pick up the flowers while you can see them.

Pick all the beautiful flowers, but make sure you find at least 14 red roses. Remember, only after picking at least 14 red roses you will receive the "Be my Valentine 2022" badge for your collection!

You want to give a valentine to other FLAGHUNTERS around the world?
Easily said, easily done...
Get an Eternal Flag as a franchise nursery branch in the FLAGSTACK webshop. Deploy them for friends or other flower lovers, and enjoy the colorful, virtually sweet-smelling blossoms together!
By the way: It' s the biggest surprise to deploy the Valentine's nursery branch without the recipients guessing about it...

Are you interested in a flower bunch subscription?
The Eternal Flag nursery offers colorful flowers every day. So, if you can pick a lot of red roses, you will receive the award once, twice, three times... As often as possible until 20.02.

Scent wrapped greetings for Valentine's Day
Your team FLAGSTACK

PS:
Long Story short...

The Eternal Flags appear on the map like nurseries until 20.02.22. Zooming into the map after capturing an Eternal Flag will cause 9 flowers to appear, collect them all. These flowers disappear after a few minutes from the map.
You need at least 14 red roses to get the badge. You can achieve it multiple times.
End of campaign: 20.02.2022 (23:59, time zone FHQ/Europe/Berlin).

It's time for your personal best at playing cards...
It's time for: Best-Of-7!

For the next 7 weeks, FLAGSTACK's Challenges are all about the number 7... 7 game cards, 7 challenges to get 7 awards....

You want more info? You get more info :-)

From 07.01.2022 - 25.02.2022 (time zone FHQ/Europe/Berlin) 7 challenges are waiting to be mastered.
You must collect game cards in various phases (combinations) in order.
There will be orange and green card decks. These decks consist of the numbers 1 to 6.
To everyone's delight there are also jokers ;-)

Phase 1:
Collect 100 game cards (hint: color and/or number is irrelevant, a joker works as a card).

Phase 2:
Collect 25 orange game cards (hint: number is irrelevant, jokers would be too easy and are not valid).

Phase 3:
Collect 25 odd game cards (hint: color is irrelevant, numbers 1/3/5 and jokers are valid)

Phase 4:
Collect 25 numbers less than 4 (hint: color is irrelevant, numbers 1/2/3 and jokers are valid).

Phase 5:
Collect 25 even game cards (hint: color is irrelevant, numbers 2/4/6 and jokers are valid)

Phase 6:
Collect 25 green playing cards (hint: number is irrelevant, jokers would be too easy and are not valid).

Phase 7:
Collect 25 numbers greater than 3 (hint: color is irrelevant, numbers 4/5/6 and jokers are valid)

    

So how do you get the game cards to earn the awards?
FHQ publishes a basic contingent of all game cards so that you can successfully complete phases 1-7.

With all FLAGHUNTERS you have the chance to bring more card sets into play. This allows the community to complete stages 1-7 faster, sooner, and more often in the given time - and you will get the Deploy and Capture On points ;-)
Your set of game cards is waiting for you in FLAGSTACK FANSHOP.
Brand new: You can pay by credit card or direct debit, even without a PayPal account!

That, at least, are the rules… Get your card set and start with phase 1 right away on the 07th!

Have fun and success playing the first challenge of 2022: Best-Of-7...
Your Team FLAGSTACK

PS: Long Story Short...
Collect from 07.01.-25.02.22 game cards in 7 different phases (combinations/badges) in order.
In addition to the game cards from FHQ, you can bring other sets of cards into play: FLAGSTACK FANSHOP
