Weekly Challenges (September 30-October 6)

yes the fortune bingo one will not be the one i would pick as “fun” but it could be sooo much worse. I will prob room jump a lot to hopefully get it done alittle faster. I have not played squelchies forever and am glad to see they r bringing back an old game as a challenge. Gl to all with this weeks challenges

Im actually looking forward to Fortune Bingo… its the Squelchies I dread. For some reason, the noises they make annoy me, so I usually play it muted with my Last.fm station playing in the background. Thats the best tip I have for making that game go faster… tune it out! My mom had surgery yesterday and I agreed to do her badges for this week, too. Ugh. Mom, Im doing Squelchies for you… thats LOVE.

Wasnt that bad. Room hopped in speedy Blackouts averaged 60#s a jump. Squelchies was easy to not sure what else I can offer that wasnt already said. Just takes some time is all and nothing more.

For both games, mute the sound!

Room jump on bingo, it speeds things up a bit for this type of badge.

Play on easy for squelchies. With the sound off, I find that game is kind of soothing. Could be all the falling squelchies make my eyes blur and want to take a nap :)

For Fortune Bingo, if you play in a blackout room, dont expect people to share because it wont happen! Its called bingo for a reason, lol.

For Squelchies, the higher the round, the faster they move. So dont be afraid to hit new game.

Good luck, fellow badge hunters!

Am I missing something or do the daubs for previous numbers not light up in FB like they do in all the other bingos? I entered a room halfway and had a hard time catching up without those “hints.” Thanks for the help!

(On the other hand, I left that room after only 2 games, it was EWB all over again in a new room. Do people have anything better to do than yell at other players who don’t play by their made up rules? They were seriously chewing out someone in that room.)

IN 6 card for bingo it varys. some games you dont get much others you get loads. earlier i got 100 in one game

On squelchies play on the level you feel most comfortable at. (except beginer)

also on the squelchies badge it says easy difficulty level or higher tokens lol

I played Bingo 3 card blackout. Go into room that has alot of the numbers already called. Go card by card and daub them off. Check for the jackpot spin right away. Then start checking numbers off. I got alot of spins this way and lots of numbers at a time. Then go to another room that has alot of the numbers already called.Goes much quicker this way.

Squelchies (not a big fan) – I played on easy and as soon as I got the jackpot spin I changed rooms which means I was playing Round 1 for every game which is the easiest round. Doing it this way I got the badge very quickly.

Bingo – I use the blackout rooms as you get more numbers quicker.

It’s cold here in Massachusetts today – not looking forward to the cold season. Oh well I guess I have to expect it since I live in New England.
Good Luck All and thank you Lura for this wonderful site.

Thanks MomsBassetHound & Lura, I forgot that it is only a few lost tokens for incorrect dubs – might as well dub away and watch TV! This is why this site is so awesome, thank you as always Lura for the great forums here!

both challenges were nice and easy.pity bingo brought the worse out in people,unfortunately room i was in ( blackout ) people were bullying others to play their way by not hitting the gong straight away and they were very aggressive giving out these orders and several people disagreed with these bullies including myself.not e1 has chat on for starters and u shouldnt feel the need to do some thing just cause a few bullies ask u to do it.i rember these sorts of fights when bingo luau came out.i got fed up with it and turned chat of.

Fortune Bingo was put out WAY before POGO started giving in to all the “cry babies” who basically wanted the games and/or badges handed to them on a platter.

So no, no lighted up previous called numbers. No shared rooms (by program.) No tons of people getting the Bingo.

Just do what many other people mentioned. Click all the numbers and then do something else for a few minutes. Room jump. (you don’t have to wait for ALL the numbers to be called from the very beginning.)

Paint? If you will look at the top of the room list, you’ll see *tabs*. These tabs will give you other room options for the different games.

BTW … MEGA THANKS to whoever suggested just clicking on all spaces for the cards, then going on about whatever. While playing bingo, I ironed 5 pair slacks, two shirts, finished packing and answered my email >grins<. A painless way to eary 3000 tokens for the bingo bagde.
