When doing the Mahjong badge you do NOT have to use the geometric tiles for the whole game. You can use whatever tiles you are comfortable with and just switch to the geometric before you make you last match.

World Class Solitaire has 3 power ups – shuffle, peek, and grab.

Mini Golf – A birdie is 1 stroke under par for that hole.

Not bad, I see 5 I’ll get right away, and maybe a couple more later. Before I say that, though, I’d better go check my gem balance, I know I overspent on the last mini release, LOL.

Maybe it was just luck? On the 5 for 5 on yahtzee, i did not try to win game or get highest score so i saved 5′s every play, got 2 of the 5 on very first game, got 1 each on next 3, so got badge in 4 games, just for going for 5′s only on every play.

Kat – You don’t have to leave the room or start a new game. You just leave your last 2 tiles on the board and click “tiles”. It will let you change them and when you hit okay will take you back to the board with 2 tiles on it, in the new pattern. Honest!!!!

Indy #9 – Holes in one do not count – if par is 2 and you get it in one shot it does not count toward birdie. Spent most of this morning explaining this in the room is was in – Pogonians were griping and ready to stage a revolution. I finally had to mute the game so I could get mine done. To get it quickly, you can play the hard game – 10 per game if you get all the birdies. Later all – on to more games.

This is a nice selection of badges and I can see buying most of them. I’ve already finished World Class Solitaire and Tri Peaks and they were pretty fast and easy.
:D

Glad I was able to make your day Kat :)

I Personally found the new batch of M&M’s all too easy, @ 5 cents a gem the last batch of 12 m&m cost $10 and feel the gem cost was not worth it, I want it to be and I mean really be a challenge that makes it worth the cost.
My most enjoyment of being rewarded a badge has come from the hardest ones we have had since conception such as the “deserts night badge” etc but not like the luck badges such as “Royal Flush”
In short for enjoyment I prefer the ones that take skill not luck.

The length of time it takes to complete a badge depends on how you are playing the game. I’m playing yahtzee like I normally would, to win the game and get a JP spin. That takes longer than just holding all the 5′s and not really playing the game. I’m making sure I get my money’s worth :)

And you have to remember that what may be easy to you is hard to someone else. And Pogo wants to sell as many M&M badges as it can.
If people thought they were too hard, or would take too long, there would be some that would just pass them by.

I still have a badge from M&M album #4 that I will win before I die, or die trying. It’s the one where you need to win 18 games on hard in Rainy Day Solitaire. I did complete the badge where you needed to win 2 games on hard, so I know I can do it. It just has to be when I can sit and play for 3 weeks, and do nothing else…LOL And there are some people that play that game on hard to relax, everyone is different.

Hope everyone is having a good Monday!!

LOL…I did the golf one the same way – on warm up front 9, but kept getting hole in ones on the ones that could have given me birdies…but finished it after 3 hrs – am so not good at that game…finished all the new M&M except for Yahtzee (have 1/5) & now for the past hour haven’t seen a 5 or wild – go figure. I have 2 M & M albums open that I don’t think will ever be finished – Phlinx & Super Dominoes…anyway, good luck all & have fun.

PS: Lura, so sorry that Pogo gods decided to change UK TP…more work for you.

Hi ALL,
my problem was the yahtzee took me 3 1/8/2 hrs to get it but i figured what the heck this will help me with my ranks lol. the rest had np with glad i saved yahtzee till last .gl to e1 doing their mm.

Glad to see my easy way out for the badge helped some in here. I guess I am a turtle in a room full of hares, but slow and steady won for me. I did have offers for others to get the badge for me, but, I will do my own badges till they put casts on both arms…took me awhile, but, all MNM badges are now done, and i feel the accomplishment.

Ro-as for the 2 mxm badges u have left–for phlinx, is it the timed one? Only way I did it was to play 3/4 of each game, skip jp spins, and hit new game after 3rd quarter.

As for super dominos, that was my worst game ever. A friend and I played together, telling each other every single domino such as 2/4, 3/6, etc. and plotting it out…still took us so very long. The only other way i can see doing it is the double browser route (Lura has provided a guide in the right column) and play against yourself, seeing all the possible domino combinations…gl
