POGO changed the challenge for Trivial to 150 questions.

Lura 10.21.09 at 10:04 am

Nice catch mmklima, thanks! I’ve updated the post. I wonder why 200 was so bad? Doesn’t seem like much of a difference to me.

While I’m here: bet max on Hog Heaven Slots. Gotta bet more to win more!

The reason it was changed, in my opinion, is because last time there was a challenge they had to extend the badge into the following week to let the people who do TP daily to be able to get the badge. So, 150 should give you Wednesday to Wednesday to complete it. However, I just discovered if you go to the UK side you can complete the challenge doing the daily ones there, with the help of BA! Thanks, Lura.

Lura 10.21.09 at 10:31 am

gtcole3: that’s one theory, however most people would have to be up awfully early next Wednesday to do the badge, since they take them off the site in the wee hours of the morning. Also, don’t forget the random trivia…

Thanks for solving the problem on Trivail Pursuit, it only costs a few tokens, but I don’t care, what are tokens when you have more then 21 million!

Why they change it in 150 I don’t know, because 200 is also easy to get when you play the us and uk version, it’s only 5 days isnt it.

Hog Heaven Slots is very easy to get. When you bet max you get the badge in about 5 minutes. I activated also Premium and M&M, so I can play longer, because I think its to easy to get.

Lura, you realize that today we can get again 30.000 tokens!

Random quizzes will count as well. Hog Heaven Slots should takes less than ten minutes.

Snowy #5 – How do you figure 30,000 tokens? It’s 10 games at 1,010 each, so that’s 10,100. If you manage to get them twice it’s 20,200.
And Lura does have the links posted for Tips & Tokens on the home page.

It took me about 8 minutes to get the Hog Heaven badge and less than 90 minutes for the TP using the random questions.

With Hog Heaven, as well as betting the max… remember to use your halo.

EdC 10.21.09 at 1:03 pm

Happy badge day everyone!

I’m all for the easy challenges, get them out of the way so I can do other things. But the hog heaven challenge was a big letdown. Yeah I could have bet lower to prolong the badge but who does that?

Good luck everyone who has the patience to sit through trivial pursuit LOL.

purplelady10us 10.21.09 at 1:29 pm

you can play the same TP board over and over again and get credit for every corect answer, as long as you don’t get 1100 points. Which will complete the game. Good luck all…

Question for you Lura. When I gave someone the link to Trivial Pursuit answers (here of course) for help with this week’s badge I was attacked by several people who said I would be “reported” for posting it in a game room. Do you know if posting a link to a legit fansite is a Pogo offense? Your site is not a scam or token sale site so I don’t know what the problem would be. Thanks.

12

Lura 10.21.09 at 1:34 pm

mamadoxsie: probably not, but I guess they could consider it “advertising” if you point to a specific site. I don’t know, but I do know people do it all the time anyway. If you’re really worried, just tell them to google “Pogo Trivial Pursuit Answers”. ;)

13

John 10.21.09 at 1:52 pm

easy badges this week

No hints for hog heaven really that was a massive letdown

For trivial persuit use this site for answers and if you get than all right on you 8th quiz press new game when you get to the first double up to finish it quickly

14

Karen 10.21.09 at 2:02 pm

I wish TP would give tokens for random games.
I wonder why they don’t?

15

tigger 10.21.09 at 2:44 pm

karen, they do give tokens for random…hogs was done in 5 minutes, im doing tp using answers here, ty lura for them :)

16

MomsBassetHound 10.21.09 at 3:15 pm

I did the random quizzes and did not get any tokens. It even tells you in the “How to Play” that there are no tokens awarded……..

Random games are only for practice and entertainment, tokens or bonuses are not awarded for Random Games.

cherie 10.21.09 at 3:25 pm

Hog Heaven took one spin since I already had 2 halos and used them.

Why did Pogo choose 150 when 20 doesn’t go into it evenly? It’s not the first time they’ve done something like that. Scratch cards in Payday Freecell come to mind!

I’ve never gotten tokens for random questions, either. Maybe there’s a trick to it?

18

Pat 10.21.09 at 6:25 pm

Lura:
How do you get to the UK games? I wanted to try those out too with this week’s Trivia Badge.

19

Lura 10.21.09 at 6:33 pm

Pat: easy peasy. Just go to the Play Now page for Trivial Pursuit and scroll all the way to the bottom. Click on the UK flag and play normally. Just remember to click the US flag when you are done so you return back to the US site for tomorrow/later.

20

Snowyjoke 10.21.09 at 7:10 pm

MomsBassetHound ==> sorry my mistake it is 10.100 you are right ;-)

21

MomsBassetHound 10.21.09 at 8:38 pm

Snowy – You almost gave me heart failure….thought I was missing free tokens…..and I just love my free tokens….LOL

Suz

Pat 10.22.09 at 11:10 am

Thanks Lura, Easy as pie. BTW – I LOVE your website. Very helpful.

23

Cindy4764 10.22.09 at 11:57 am

Wow, talk about your quickies, LOL. Maybe 5 minutes for Hog Heaven, and not long at all for Trivial Pursuit. I guess this leaves me ample time to pursue other trivial things, huh? :)

24

Serena 10.22.09 at 12:30 pm

I’m thankful for the Trivial Pursuit challenge this week. It helped motivate me to do more catching up on the UK side – and then I also activated an old Trivial Pursuit challenge as a personal badge.

I ranked out of Hog Heaven Slot awhile back, but that badge was also cool – and I did manage to acquire quite a few thousand tokens from that.

25

Kat8mouse 10.22.09 at 2:13 pm

Also wanted to add that in addition to not getting tokens/bonuses, you do not gain ranks by using the random puzzles either. Someone in the TP room was arguing with me that you do gain rank, but trust me, you don’t :)

26

Cyrabi 10.22.09 at 3:21 pm

Hog Heaven Slots was easy. Use the halos, you can only have up to 3 at a time. If you don’t get a wedge in TP the first time you can replay it, just remember the correct anwsers after the first time so you can get the wedge the second time. Good Luck All.

27

Shelly 10.22.09 at 6:15 pm

Cyrabi. Do you know the TP answers are posted on this site everyday? Just wondering since you mention remembering the answers if you don’t get the wedge the first time and have to replay.

28

Cyrabi 10.23.09 at 5:30 pm

Shelly: Yes I know the answers are here but I’ve never looked. I bet if I did look and then did a day I would forget the answers anyway. I already got the badge.

29

EdC 10.24.09 at 5:49 pm

I figure I may as well rank up while I do this challenge. Id like to solve the 10 questions,get the wedge, and then quit the puzzle and start a new one. I dont know where the new game or quit button is though. Thank you in advance for any replies :)

30

Lura 10.24.09 at 6:35 pm

EdC: I’ve never done it myself, but have you tried the Main Menu button?

31

grace782 10.24.09 at 7:31 pm

EdC: I have tried hitting “Main Menu” – you DO NOT get credit for the questions you answered correctly, even if you had over 1100 pts. You will have to play that day over in order to get the wedge.
