I FINALLY did it!! I got my badge in Lottso Express, WOO HOOO HOOO!!!

I said to myself last night, “Self, you are NOT gonna let ‘em beat ya”!! So I turned the puter back on and went into a room, got two more Super Lottso cards—THEY DIDN’T COUNT either!! Logged off, got back on and went into another room, got another Super, it didn’t count, logged off….you getting the picture? lol lol FInally, I went into a room where the cards DID count and I stayed in that room until I got my Badge!

When they started counting I had my Badge in no time! :) I could have had that badge in a day, (practically from the beginning), if they had ALL counted to begin with. (grumbles)

Thanks Shaz for your note–BUT WHY IN THE HECK DID YOU WAIT TIL NOW TO TELL ME THIS??? ROFL Just kiddin’ ya, k? I appreciate any tips that may help me in the future….re-booting was one thing I didn’t try and will try in the future!! Thanks again. :)

I’m having a little problem with Java but not the one everyone else is having…my problem is I have the Java 12 Update because that’s the one Support told me Pogo Games like better—DID YOU ALL KNOW ABOUT THAT?? Anyway, I need to “uncheck” something in the ADVANCED TAB in the Console’s Menu…..When you open the Console, under the Advanced Tab, you’ll see a tab called Java Plug In. Then you’ll see “Enable the next -generation Java plug-in” under that tab. THAT should be unchecked and I CAN’T uncheck mine. It’s checked and grayed out. Also, in the MISCELLANEOUS TAB down at the bottom, there is one called “Java Quick Starter”—I need to check that one, but it won’t let me because it’s unchecked and grayed out.

Anyone know how to fix this?? I have NO CLUE here….I’ve never seen this before. I’ve downloaded or re-downloed Java 12 before and I’ve always had these options available. Now I don’t for some reason.

I’ve got Windows Vista Ultimate, Service Pack 1, 64 bit operating system and with Windows 7. It has a quad-core processor with 2.20 GHz and 8 GB of RAM/Memory. Have not updated to IE8 yet and won’t til more bugs are worked out. HELP???? Is that enough info to get any tips?

Please help if you can, this is driving me nuts!! I could be doing so much better if I could change those settings…sigh.

I do hope everyone that’s having trouble with the Lottso Badge finds their way here and reads all the great tips so they can get their badge too….Lura, your site has helped me so many times and I am so grateful to all of the other players who have written in with their great help. Thank YOU too.

Enjoy your Sunday everyone!!! :)

I can’t wait for the mini golf to come out – I hope it is fun and interesting as I loved mini golf as a kid but have some muscular problems which make RL anything harder and I can’t make the shots I see in my head.

Just a funny for you, watch out for those spell checkers! I was catching up on my Word Search and the topic was “Wedding” and the word was “vowels” – unless I’m totally crazy, I think the submitter meant vows. ;) HAGW!

I just wanted to address the Google Chrome Java Issue. Google Chrome’s Java is separate from Internet Explorer’s java download. You will need to download java for Google Chrome from the java website and that should fix the problem your having with chrome. Also, Opera also is individually different from ie’s java and a different version of java is needed for that also. I use chrome for pogo and it’s extremely more stable in my opinion than internet explorer. For the pogo user’s that also like to double or quadruple browse, chrome is by far an excellent choice.

See you in pogo-land :)
