As a retired U.S. Navy Chief Petty Officer I can tell you the ranks are in order for the most part. Rank 21 thru 24 are all messed up.

I think you have the badges and the names confused. A two bar is a captain and a 1 bar is a Lieutenant. so the badge you have for rank 20 should actually be the one for rank 40 and the badge you have to rank 10 should be for rank 20. not sure about the others but rank 50 looks ok. its different in the navy. oh god, now i got that damn village people song in my head.

Looks pretty neat! Wonder if the sound is any good... I just saw that pogo game out with a “coming soon” page on battleship, and shows a couple screen shots. Looks pretty neat!

So my guess would be that is the release date.

Anyway doesnt seem that hard to rank up and if you double browse no doubt will go very fast especially the add on badges. My brother always liked this game more than I and he usually plays something in my name when hes working (he works nights in a drug rehab) so maybe Ill let him play this one and wait it out for Risk and the block game.

He could be talking about a new game or feature on Pogo, or he could just as easily have been talking about a new bicycle he bought and was going to ride to work. Annoying to play such guessing games. Either way, Pogo's "today" is not over yet, so whatever this thing is that is coming out still has plenty of hours left to not turn Pogo_Bret into a liar. Anyway, let's keep this on topic to Battleship and not speculate when it's coming out (or not coming out, as it may be). :) Carolyn: The annoying thing about the Pogo Facebook account is that he doesn’t always post about Pogo-related things.

Which leaves me wondering whats the "Something cool" that comes out today? So im presuming that Battleship isnt coming out today, as I dont see it in my favourites.

I missed that! Even still, games go by pretty fast... and it's nice that the special badges cannot be done in a day or two (like in Mini Golf) but arnt horribly tedious (like in Everyone Wins Bingo) Oh Battleships, haha… I missed that!
