I guess no one can help me with the question I asked above. It is just that I don’t get why it is working like that, very weird to me. Guess no one else has had this happen to them. Oh well thanks anyway. Thanks Lura you have a great site here, read it everyday. Keep up the good work.

Do I think the instructions that Pogo supplies are adequate? I would have to say yes. I have found myself many times asking how is this done or that done…. A simple perusal of the game instructions will either explain it or give a general idea of how it is done. I don’t always read the how to play because I like learning without looking but when I do get stuck, there are very few games that I have ever had trouble with. As an example. I have NO CLUE how to play bridge but there have been a couple Bridge challenges. After a couple games and reading the instructions, I started getting a better understanding and have gotten those badges. Now do I know how to play bridge? NOPE! But the instructions are enough that if I kept playing and referring to the How To Play, I would get a better understanding. Like Euchre. Never knew how o play, but actually kinda like the game now that it makes sense. How? I read the How to Play. Yes there are times I feel the How to Play instructions could be a little clearer and concise, but they work…. LOL.

I will say this though… If it is found that one does not understand the How to Play instructions, then a) Pogo should make them a little clearer or precise, or b) ASK SOMEONE how has played and does well. It may sound crazy to some people, but this is also a good way of meeting new people and becoming friends. Either way, nothing beats the experience of playing a game and learning things on your own because when done this way, it tends to stick.

No worries, I don’t have auto-renewal on my account. I buy myself a gift subscription every 6 months.

Anyway, I’ve contacted both Pogo and the bank. Pogo either had no idea or pretended they had no idea. The bank blamed me and said I should keep more money in my account. That is true, but I hate the bank so eh…whatever. Paypal it is. Just curious about the experience of others I guess.

I wonder why people think Pogo should let us purchase things (i.e. mugs, t-shirts, etc.) with tokens when the same people call tokens worthless. If they’re worthless to you, why do you think they’d be worth anything to Pogo? LOL! Just my opinion.

Thanks for the insights on the handheld games. I’d thought about buying a couple but probably won’t considering the comments I’ve been reading.
