Today, Pogo released another round of Mini Awards in Aces Up!, Lottso!, Hog Heaven Slots, Jungle Gin, QWERTY, Crazy Cakes, and Thousand Island Solitaire.

In addition, on the Mini Award page, there were dropdowns for World Class Solitaire and KenoPop! but the dropdowns were removed later in the day. Those Mini Awards will probably come with the next release. For a full list of the Mini Award items you can earn — including the ones for World Class Solitaire and KenoPop! — check out our Mini Awards page.

The 2009 Father’s Day Limited Edition mix-n-match badge is was released today. It’ll set you back 28 gems and the challenge is as follows:

Hog Heaven Slots – 2009 Father’s Day Limited Edition Badge
Collect 50 halos in 7 days! Win this badge plus 3,000 tokens.

You may want to purchase this now, but hold off on activating it until this Wednesday, when there’s a weekly challenge in Hog Heaven Slots.

Today Pogo released the May 2009 Mix-n-Match badges and challenges. They each cost 16 gems.

There are two notable differences with this set than when we first gave you a sneak peek:

First, the Mother’s Day Limited Edition badge was not released today. We expect it to be released on Tuesday, so it’ll be out in time for Mother’s Day which is the following Sunday. For more information on it and to see the badge itself, check out the end of the sneak peek post from the beginning of this month.

Second, the requirement for the Monopoly Slots M-n-M has changed. Originally it was Pass GO 3 times in 3 days!, which is not impossible but pretty time consuming at the rate the dice come off the spinners. We think you might get a good laugh out of the new requirement below.

Backgammon – Backgammon Bar Badge
Move 10 of your opponent’s pieces to the bar in 10 days!

Canasta – Red Turtleneck Badge
Get 60 Red 3′s in 2 weeks!

So far we’ve received Mini Awards for Canasta, Everyone Wins Bingo, Mahjong Garden, Pogo Addiction Solitaire, and Tri-Peaks Solitaire and we know that Pogo’s developers and artists are planning more Mini Awards for Hog Heaven Slots, Jungle Gin, and Lottso. That seems like a lot…

…but wait, there’s more!

Here are some currently in-development Mini Award items for Thousand Island Solitaire, Jungle Gin, Crazy Cakes, and more:

And here are two backgrounds, one for Jungle Gin and one for QWERTY:

If you haven’t ranked up to at least rank 11 (the highest-ranked award available, from Everyone Wins Bingo) in Thousand Island Solitaire, Jungle Gin, QWERTY, and Crazy Cakes you may want to work on that in the coming weeks, as it’s pretty clear Pogo will release those Mini Awards first.
