for the squid round, you can easily achieve perfects (easiest one for me, anyway) if you aim TIP of your arrow right at squid’s eye, or the mouthlike area that comes out first works even better. aiming at the eye was a tip here on BH when the game first came out, so i can’t take credit for it, lol. and i then started getting the arrow’s tip to the mouth soon after. helped me so much, hope it works for all of you. gl all w/ your mnms!

Jody,

I’m not sure if this will help you or not, but you only have to get 8 perfect “squid” rounds in Boardwalk Seaball, not 8 perfect games. I wasn’t sure from your post if you knew that or not.

Cheers and good luck to everyone!

i got the monopoly badge after severals attempts. what worked for me was playing under pogo rules tab and then not making any deals with the bots for property. for some reason this helped my game not to freeze up. got the badge but was very boring to play not being able to buy property from bots.

Seaball is kind of fun, but how am I ever going to get 8 perfect games!! I cant even get one round perfect. Looks like this will be the only mix and match badge that I wont be getting. I wish I had never bought this badge. If anyone has any tips, I would appreciate it! Thanks!!

Good Morning, I am having that problem with Monopoly as well. Pogo said they are working on it, but I really have to wonder if they are!!! This is so frustrating if they have problems they shouldn’t offer challenges for this game. I know when they say “they are working” on a problem sometimes it is NEVER fixed. I still don’t get my full token amount on Word Search and Pogo told me when the game first game out “they were working” on this problem, and they still haven’t fixed it!! Just like the badges for Crossword Cove, alot of people not getting their badges. I apologize for ranking but sometimes Pogo either ignores what is wrong or blames our computers. So PLEASE Pogo fix these games with gliches!!!!

update on monopoly- pogo tells me they are aware of the problem, and they are working on it. They suggested I try playing with people instead of bots till this gets resolved, but unfortunately it wouldnt let me even try- it locked up again. Oh well, I will wait for them to fix it.

Boggle took me awhile but it was my first time playing it and I got pretty good towards the end! Up to rank 3 now probably will play until I get the rank 5 badge later on.

Seaball will probably take me awhile and be the last mnm of the month for me to finish. I can get pretty close to perfect game on the squids (usually miss just one darnit!) so I figure I’ll get the easy ones finished first.

Already got Stellar Sweeper done which was really easy for me, got it done in about 8 minutes, Boggle Bash like I said before, Word Search, and now working on Sock Hop Slots hoping by the time I’m done with this mnm I’ll have rank 10 too! Good luck everyone!

Thanks Lura for the badge tracker once all my progress is in it has been a great help! It was such a pain having to keep up with the badges I needed to finish and what ranks I was on paper! I’m such a badge addict lol Eventually I’ll catch up on trivial pursuit will be much easier having the answers! Thank you!

I’m having the same issues with Monopoly. Sometimes it freezes just for the heck of it and sometimes it waits until I try to buy properties. Not sure if I should send in a Help ticket or not.

I avoid Monopoly because each month it seems like theres a monopoly badge so im hoping the less people buy em theyll realize its getting old by now LOL

Amy – It looks like Monopoly HN has been updated in some table features (having a pause button, a button for fast dialogs) Thats *probably* why it is being glitchy now.

As far as the August MnM badges go, I will enjoy most of them, except boardwalk seaball. I enjoy the game, but the squid round is the one I have the MOST trouble with. Even when my line is green, it doesnt seem to hit a squid LOL So I dont think I will be purchasing that one unless I improve in that part of the game

Good luck to all :)
