Three... Two... One... Duck as fast as you can...!
For your sixth birthday in July, you'll get another surprise: a delicious birthday cake. One? Let's not be so modest.... How about six birthday cakes this month?
Okay, you're on board and helping with the food - that's great!
If you go to an Eternal Flag in July, you'll be virtually standing in front of the FLAGSTACK Bakery. There are 6 different birthday cakes on offer. As soon as you capture the Eternal Flag, the cake fight begins and a total of 9 sweet treats appear on the map. You can snack on them all, they are 100% calorie free :-)
But look at them in detail.... Are they the cake pieces you need for the 6 different cake fight badges?
FLAGSTACK Bakery will serve you the following varieties of birthday cakes in July:
Strawberry Chocolate Cake, Apple Cake, Berry Cake, Chocolate Cake, Nut Cake with Cranberries and Marzipan Cake
Are there any yummy treats in there for you? To get the badge for each kind of birthday cake, you have to collect a total of 8 cake pieces per kind. Then you have a complete birthday cake, which you can enjoy colorfully in the badge. Once you've collected all the cake fight badges, you'll get a special birthday cake badge on top!
Each of the pieces of cake from the FLAGSTACK Bakery comes with 6 Capture and 6 Capture On points. Do you plan to open your own store? We recommend you to go to the FLAGSTACK webshop and get your Franchise Eternal Flag. Deploy them to friends or other foodies so you can have as much fun as possible with this cake battle! https://www.flagstack.help
Be warned - sometimes there are surprises at the FLAGSTACK Bakery of your choice.... But don't worry, you'll like them all!
Be sure to enjoy the month of July with the FLAGSTACK cake fight in addition to the big birthday search game :-)
Cake fight throwing time: 01-31 July 2021 (FHQ/Europe/Berlin time zone). If you still have questions, ingredient list or so, please email us at support@flagstack.net - with the new ticket system, you will be helped by the support as soon as possible.

Cover your ears for a second, we need to get this out loud....
Happy Birthday to all the FLAGHUNTERs,
Happy Birthday to us,
Happy Birthday, happy birthday…
Happy Birthday toooooo all of uuuuuuuusssss!
In July THE party of the year takes place and YOU are our guest of honor for our 6th birthday - because WE celebrate this year really big and loud!
As our first Party Month Surprise, we're giving you details on our Birthday Search Game that will keep you on your toes in July 2021....
Read it carefully before you toast FLAGSTACK's birthday ;-)
In the Birthday Search game, there are two different types of Jackpot Jumper Flags jumping around on the map - they are called Jackie and Jack.
Jackie has a total of 49 pink Jackpot Jumper Flags, you can distinguish them by the numbers 01-49.
Jack has a total of 10 blue Jackpot Jumper Flags, which you can distinguish by the numbers 01-10.
For the Birthday Search Game, there are a total of 6 winning levels that you can reach one after the other.
Of course, we won't tell you the correct numbers... All the excitement would be ruined then :-)
These are your goals for each winning level:
Winning level 1 = 3 correct numbers:
Find 3 of the 6 correct numbers from a total of 49 Jackie Jackpot Jumper Flags! You will receive a badge and 30,000 credits as a reward
Winning level 2 = 4 correct numbers:
Find another one, making a total of 4 of the 6 correct numbers out of a total of 49 Jackie Jackpot Jumper Flags! You will receive another badge and another 10,000 credits as a reward
Winning level 3 = 5 correct numbers:
Find one more and thus a total of 5 of the 6 correct numbers from a total of 49 Jackie Jackpot Jumper Flags! You will receive a badge and 10,000 credits as a reward.
Winning level 4 = 6 correct numbers:
Find the last of the 6 correct numbers from a total of 49 Jackie Jackpot Jumper Flags! Of course, you will also receive a badge and additional 10,000 credits as a reward.
Winning level 5 = 6 correct numbers + 1 bonus number:
Find the first of the 2 correct numbers from a total of 10 Jack Jackpot Jumper Flags! A badge is guaranteed - as well as additional 20,000 credits as a reward.
Winning level 6 = 6 correct + 2 bonus numbers:
Find the last of the 2 correct numbers out of a total of 10 Jack Jackpot Jumper Flags! ***JACKPOT*** You have found all the right Jackies and Jacks on the map! For this achievement you get another 20,000 credits with the badge!
For the entire Birthday Search Game, you'll end up with 100,000 credits for sure. And of course, we're being especially generous in our anniversary month...
Among all FLAGHUNTERS who make it to win level 6, we will divide a total of 1 million points equally at the beginning of August!
ALL Jackie and Jack Jackpot Jumper Flags can be found from 1 July 2021 (0:00, FHQ/Europe/Berlin time zone). So it is possible that you have already found one or both of the right Jacks before you have found all of the correct Jackies. All the searching is completely parallel! There is also no order of finding the correct numbers. It's just important to find the right ones.... Another FLAGHUNTER may have collected the right numbers in a different order than you to reach a winning level. Just collect all the Jackie and Jack Jackpot Jumper Flags you can find - the right ones will be there at some point! By the way, each Jackie and Jack can only be captured once.
Come on, admit it - you want all of this too! So keep a close eye on the FLAGSTACK map, where Jackie and Jack are hanging out... Get a good chance to catch them by studying the times they jump, and use a Force Field at that moment... You know what may happen then???
Short explanation about the Force Field: While the Force Field is active (60 minutes after deploy) up to 60 Jumper Flags are attracted by the energy of the Force Field, even in times when actually no Jumper Flags would appear at your place.
This Birthday Search Game takes place in July 2021 (FHQ/Europe/Berlin time zone) and offers you huge prizes as well as thrills!
Redeem the won credits in the FLAGSTACK Credit Shop and choose your favorite flags!
Join in the fun and look forward to even more action for FLAGSTACK's 6th birthday!
Capture the flag...

Hello soccer lovers!
Hello badge enthusiasts!
Hello to all who love any kind of variety!
For the first five months of the year, the virtual world trip of the FLAGSTACK volunteers took us virtually to foreign countries and it was a great pastime with exciting reports, delicious recipes and great badge series.
In June, the ball rolls... In June we hear fan chants and cheers... On 11 June the European Soccer Championship begins, for which the world has been waiting for one year...
Teams from 24 countries will participate in 51 matches of the European Football Championship for men. This year, for the first time in the 60-year history of the European Football Championship, Euro 2020 (yes, reads strange - but that is how it is) will be played across Europe at 11 venues.
And for you, FLAGSTACK has your individual soccer stadium to take care of during the European Championship from 04 June to 11 July 2021!
That's what the challenge is about:
Task 1: The first thing you need is your soccer field... To green the required area you need to deploy 72 Green Flags. This is how you get the right size with the distance rules among your Green Flags (yes the rules in professional sports are strict).
Period: starts from 04 June
Task 2: The green needs to be groomed so that the pros have the best possible surface for the kick off.... So mow the green to perfection by capturing and/or deploying 714 Green Flags (a soccer field has a total of ~7140m²).
Period: starts from 11 June
Task 3: No soccer game without the markings! The white lines have become perfect - now you just have to install the corner flags.... Deploy 4 White Flags to define the boundaries of the field.
Period: starts from 18 June
Task 4: You just can't do it without them - someone just has to control the rules and ensure a fair competition: the ladies and gentlemen in black - the referees... Deploy 6 Night Flags to send your personal referees onto the field.
Period: starts from 25 June
Task 5: All is prepared so far. Great work up to now, FLAGHUNTER! Now it's time to let the 2 teams run in.... Capture 22 Eternal Flags - one for each man on the field. Of course there can be a few penalties.... So the capture of golden Soccer Jumper Flags + also counts towards the success of this task!
Period: starts from 02 July
Now it's 'your move'! You can easily complete the challenges, and instead of a medal you will receive a badge for each successfully completed task! The series starts on 04 June with the first task. As soon as you have successfully completed it, the next task will become visible and will count from the given date. The same procedure will be followed for the other tasks. The successful completion of the previous task is always a prerequisite for the start of the next task. Theoretically, you can complete all tasks in a row starting on 02 July. The entire FLAGSTACK EM ends on 11 July 2021 at 23:59 (time zone FHQ/Europe/Berlin).
Good luck and have fun with fair play!
Your team FLAGSTACK

A change when changing players:
Each team may make up to 5 substitutions of players per game.
Excellent! You have read to the end and persevered and are now quite a bit wiser ;-)

Our jolly traveling group of 8 Official FLAGSTACK Volunteers have been on a virtual tour for weeks - in May through the Kingdom of the Netherlands - and have brought you the highlights from the virtual sightseeing tour!
Today, on the very last stop of the entire virtual world trip, they not only take a virtual trip through the Netherlands, but right back into the past... In the Hunebedcentrum, the Hunebed Center, they meet the prehistoric people...!
The new Hunebedcentrum is located right next to the largest burial mound in the Netherlands - a masterpiece with its gigantic stones. This burial mound (with the number D27) is more than 22 meters long and built from stones with an individual weight of more than 20,000 kg. Imagine that these stones were pushed all the way there from southern Finland during an ice age about 150,000 years ago.... The burial mound is even older than the pyramids and Stonehenge!
The volunteers, and you too, discover the fascinating prehistory of the primeval province of the Netherlands, Drenthe. The journey covers five areas and starts with the ice ages that shaped this landscape. How did man use this landscape and live here for many thousands of years? A journey of more than 5,000 years into the past will take you to a time when our ancestors started farming and built barrows. Who were the builders of these mysterious monuments?
The museum shows their world, which consisted of small groups of houses and small fields, surrounded by wilderness with wolves, primeval cattle and bears. How did the barrow builders survive in this environment? You can't get any closer to prehistoric times than here in Borger!
In the Kenniscentrum (Knowledge Center) on the site of the Mound Center is the expedition gate of the UNESCO Geopark De Hondsrug. It explains what a Geopark is and why the Hondsrug area has been given UNESCO status. It is clearly shown that the area is part of a worldwide network of unique areas. Its history is linked to the people who settled here in the past and still live here today. The exhibition explains how the Hondsrug area was shaped by the ice ages and how all kinds of different peoples migrated to and settled in the area, from the Neanderthals and reindeer hunters to the barrow diggers and farmers of the Iron Age. You will discover stories, films, mammoth remains, special erratic boulders, an overview of the hotspots in Hondsrug and much more.
There is much more to discover at the prehistoric park. During a hike along the barefoot trail, the volunteers experience "on their own feet" how it feels to walk barefoot on natural materials, there is an idyllic butterfly garden where magnificent butterflies flutter around in spring and summer, and an archery range where they can shoot with bows and arrows under guidance. There are also picnic tables scattered around the grounds, where you can sit down and relax in the meantime.
In the largest rock garden of Holland thousands of boulders lie in motley disorder. The countless large and small stones were transported here in the ice during the penultimate ice age, about 150,000 years ago. At different erratic blocks there are boards with descriptions, which give an idea of the distances these stones have traveled during the ice age and how old they are. The names of these boulders are also noted there, such as Helleflint, Rapakiwi, Uppsala Granite, Gneiss etc. Some of them sound like fantasy names, but they are not at all: they are the official scientific names. All the rocks in the rock garden were collected by Jannes van Echten. He travelled through Drenthe for two years and collected all those boulders. The erratic blocks were given to him by the inhabitants of Drenthe, and the rock garden was created by the people of Drenthe. The volunteers walk through this unusual garden after the museum visit and are impressed by the long journey of the stones.
Overall, the volunteers have experienced impressive things and seen impressive places over the past few weeks - virtually, of course. They brought them directly home to you with the travel reports from Germany, Australia, the USA, the Czech Republic and the Kingdom of the Netherlands... Now it's time to relax and read the stories again. And have you already cooked the typical recipes?
Look forward to the next great campaign, we will tell you more about it soon...
