Weekly Challenges (November 4-10)

Lura, you are up bright and early. Pogo doesn’t even have their challenges posted yet and its 6:57 am here in NV.

Word Whomp Whackdown can send you to tears. If you’re playing and cannot find any additional words, just hit the “Take Score” button on the left-hand side and go directly to the bonus round. You’ll still get credit for the veggies munched and won’t have to sit until the timer goes out.

Yahtzee Party is a no-brainer. Fast rooms in Wild Mode is the best way to go.

WWW- don’t forget you can freeze the timer by clicking a name in the who’s here list.

I just got my yahtzee badge. It took me two hours but I enjoyed it. I watched a movie at the same time and managed to rank up too! I am not looking forward to the WWW badge but Thank You EdC for the tip. I will go try that later on.

grrrrrr should have payed attn to what the challenges were for this week. WWW was one of my personals for last week – took forever!

ty for the yahtzee tips! Have a good day everyone :)

Did you go out of the game in Yahtzee, clear your cache and then go back into Yahtzee? If it stops giving you credit, you have a bad streak for that room.

Go out of room. Pay off Spike (he is nasty when he doesn’t get his bribes). Clear the cache and then go back into the game.

Pogo got a nasty Letters To The Editor from me and 3 others who have been having trouble with Yahtzee freezing, My computer is update-to-date, Java is up-to-date, I have 2 gb of ram.. what else do we need now? A Facebook account? LOL… Seems to me Pogo is too WORRIED about “Facebook” to deal with the REAL problems.

EdC #5
Thanks for sharing that, I also tried it on TP and it works! You have saved me much frustration when I’m in a timed game and someone calls or comes in!

I, too, want to thank EdC (5) for the WWW hint. It made a ton of difference being able to pause and examine the letters for additional words so I could get that darn gopher to munch more veggies!

I combined the mix n match challenges with www and yahtzee. Got all 4 of them. Yahtzee was time consuming but I enjoyed it. Word Whomp Whackdown is one of my favorite games so I really enjoyed both challenges. Also I believe in www there is only 8 veggies between the round and the speed round no matter what level you play on. I played on hard but someone in the room said she was playing on easy and was getting 8 veggies.
Good Luck everyone

Okay, I have never played with the wilds in yahtzee, but since that is a nearly unanimous recommendation, I will give it a try….just because of you guys. lol

I am one of those people who generally DON’T get to play & finish the new weekly badges right on Wednesday (or even start them half the time!), so it looks like that embarrassing flaw of mine lucked out for me this week — being able to do my weekly with the special badge that just came out. hehehe

Hi all, if you have problem to fill in the words in WWW you can use the following site: http://www.thewordfinder.com/scrabble.php

Also in the speedround, remember the lettres and use the pausebutton, fill in your letrres in the site and resumed in WWW and fill in. It works very easy for me when I have problems with some lettres.

Yahtzee I play on fast room with wild modes and it goes realy fast. Play also an M&M and an Premiumbadge and it takes me less then 1 hour.

Good luck all!

Ok I must be doing something wrong in WWW, tried EDC’s (#5) trick by clicking on a name in the Who’s Here to get the timer to pause but it didn’t work, tried again and actually clicked to see a profile and still didn’t pause the timer, any idea’s?? This old brain of mine needs more time to process letters into words

I prefer not to use helps, but if you really need the help. For WWW, you can use this site. It’s not exhaustive, but at least it will help and will give you the edge you need to get your brain a-movin’!

Also, a much better site for Scrabble and Word Womp as well as Word Jong, you can use: http://www.wineverygame.com/. It also has a Boggle Solver.

I enjoy Pogo and even with its quirks it’s still cheap entertainment. And for all you soda drinkers, in case you didn’t know, coke rewards points can be used to buy club memberships. And at 550 points for a year, it’s not too bad. I’m more than 1/2 way there!

Hi all. For WWW I played on Easy. Use the Mix Up button to find more words, add an s if you can, and see if you can spell words backwards. For example BAT is TAB spelled backwards. I guess playing in fast rooms for Yahtzee is a good way to get the badge. Good Luck All.

Someone earlier asked about an anagram site. I use anagrammer.com for all the word challenges. Helps a lot.
I open up a new window for the anagrammer, then go to game, write down all the letters, put game on pause, go to anagrammer to get words, then open up game side by side and start typing. Hope this helps some.

Youre most welcome, Sue!
