Munzee List for Hiders

I was impressed with this list of principles that Zalgariath follows. He posted the list to the Munzees: Have I been doing it wrong? forum discussion. I thought I'd share it here:

  • I will make durable, quality Munzees... and usually with a custom skin. Laminated and designed to last.
  • I will take care the location I deploy in is scanable, sensible, and has at least some interest.
  • I will attach my munzees in a decent manner and NOT damage the fixture with permanent glue or things.* Once they go, I want NO SIGN they were ever there.
  • I will deploy a Munzee in each of MY geocaches or at least nearby
  • I will deploy while travelling a long way from home if I find an awesome spot.
  • I will maintain cache Munzees
  • I will not maintain, I will simply archive, all my long distance ones if reported missing.
  • I will deploy series and trails, spaced close, in large numbers but taking into account the above quality / interest concerns.
  • I may or may not vigorously maintain these series, depending on if they are meant to work together and should be kept whole (like Munzopoly) or if they are a nature trail with so many along a walk the loss of a few won't matter.
  • I will help my fellow Munzeers with events, custom Munzees and advice.
  • I will comment on and rate every Munzee I find.
  • I will tell a Munzee owner if I think their deployment is a bit rubbish or needs a rethink... in a nice way  
  • I will Cap Virtuals... I will not comment on them, unless done really well. Effort for effort!
  • I will Cap anything, but prefer walks and trails with a Munzee every 100-200m hidden in a variety of ways.
Density is good.... BUT! VARIETY VARIETY VARIETY.... 50 munzees under every seat? No fun. 50 Munzees under seats, on poles, on trees, behind signs, fences... much better

* Some glue jobs are fine. Guard rails, Trolls, Backs of some old signs... but I have seen a number that are stuck to places that they really should be like statues :(
