I can only echo what has already been said about Phlinx. Play on beginner and try not to let any balls fall, go for small matches of colours. You don't have to win the round for badge progress so sometimes to make as many matches as I could I was letting the screen fill up then starting over when I lost the round. Doing this I was usually getting anything between 50 and 100 matches per round. Deidra. I can only echo what has already been said about Phlinx.

Have we done something wrong to deserve such a harsh punishment as HOURS UPON HOURS of playing phlinx?? I thought the mix and match challenge was slightly mean until I activated it with the weekly challenge... I am about to finish my 49th round and I still only have 1527 matches. What this says to me is that I will have to play a TOTAL OF A HUNDRED rounds?? 25 games of phlinx?? AGGHHHHH I feel like my head is going to explode and only halfway done. I've tried all levels of difficulty and everything I've read on the tips but I really would love to know if there are some new little tricks anyone has come across *pretty please* because I don't know how much more Phlinx I can handle. :( Dear Pogo:

BANG! BANG! -sigh- That was me banging my head on the table. Last night I did the 3 crossword puzzles while watching TV. No badge. Hmmm... Must have hit enter and they weren't correct. No problem. Do them again today. Did 3 puzzles again while watching football. Still no badge. Sign out, log back in. Darn it. Check the date on the puzzle and answers. They match. Do another puzzle. Hit Enter. DOUBLE DARN IT! Just as I hit enter I realize I don't have it set on EASY!!! Take an aspirin for my headache. Pour a glass of wine. Change setting to EASY!! Start over. Tell DH to stop laughing. Good thing there is more football on TV. BANG! BANG! BANG! -sigh-

They said they got the 3 puzzles done in a few minutes by just hitting hint then solve, hint then solve. They said it counted for badge progress and they got good amounts of tokens. Me personally, I'll be using the answers given here...lol For EDC (and anyone else who doesn’t want to use the answers for CC) In Phlinx yesterday alot of players were talking about how to do the CC badge this week.

I stink at crossword puzzles but was able to get the badge with ALOT of help from BadgeHungry. I used the power-ups and hint and when I had one letter left to find I just went through the alphabet til I got it. Not done with Phlinx yet but I'm more than halfway there and I play on Hard.

US-specific ones won't always get a mention on the UK site and UK token bonuses (e.g. Game of the Month and Bingo Nights) rarely get covered on the US site. The fact is that it's possible to claim Token bonuses on both sites, if you're so inclined. But the fact that you read about some Token bonuses in US News (and not in UK) doesn't mean you're getting a raw deal. We do give away a pretty large number of Tokens on the UK site too. You can read the whole letter blasting pogo for unfair awards on the Us side just switch to Uk mode and check the pogo news Moms accually alls they need to do is check out how fast your doing the puzzle if people are concerned about it slow down you have 15 mins to do the puzzle shrugs its all I could think of lol anyways also theres not that big of diffrence between easy normal and hard maybe 500-750 tokens at most the diffrence is the cost of power ups theres 4 for easy 2 for normal and 0 hard also Pogo doesnt mind that you use Us/Uk site this is from letter to the editor on the Uk site

I was afraid of that. My computer sometimes freezes whenever I attempt to open another window which is why I was going to try and wing it on my own. Kinda feel sorry for those who don't know about this site and are struggling to find all the words. If I remember correctly,playing crossword cove on easy wasn't very easy!
