It’s Tuesday again and that means it’s Tips Day! Each Tuesday we’ll be showcasing one of Pogo.com’s games and collecting your tips, insights, and hints for playing the games, earning more tokens in them, and earning their badges more easily.
This week’s game is Lottso! Express. There are a total of 50 Lottso! Express ranks, and you can earn a total of five badges as you rank up. There are also two in-game achievement badges for getting 50,000 bingos and scratching 20,000 cards. The weekly, premium, and mix-n-match badges available are for these types of challenges:
* Get X bingos
* Complete X regular cards
* Complete X Super Lottso cards
* Complete X Mega Lottso cards
* Reach the nth goal X times
We’ve got a few Lottso! Express tips already, but please share your tips for scoring big, ranking up, and/or completing these badges easier and faster in a comment below! Thank you!

For the ingame badge of completing scratch cards, remember that Super Lottso and Mega Lottso cards don’t count. What I do is scratch the cards as soon as I get them, this also enables the chance of more bingos, although sometimes I try and get the majority of numbers first and then clear off the 4 corners and start again to get more points.
When trying to reach the 5th goal for a badge, probably the only way of doing this with the most success is to go for the Mega Lottso cards, can rack up a lot of points playing that if you keep getting the smiley face.

The biggest tips I can give is to keep hitting new game until you get the combo of at least 4 gold cards and at least 1 silver card on your initial first cards – then fill them all up for the mega lottso.
You’re going to need at least one, if not 2 mega lottso’s to hit your goal for all the goals. This will release all the balls you need to make the goals.
Playing the purple half cards – doesn’t work very well for reaching goals.
My niece and I have played around a lot with this game while we activated the M&M badges and worked on the weekly challenges.
She hates the game, while it relaxes me. So, while trying to figure how to maximize the game – we’ve realized – mega lottso gives you the most “bang for your buck” so to speak.
Even on the M&M badge to get the 70 (I think) single cards – you still need that first mega lottso to get through the games the quickest to achieve that goal.

For the PBA you need to get JP spins. The minute you reach goal three hit new game. You will get a spin. No need to play anymore. (for tokens or next goal)

Janet #3 I tried your tip to hit new game once I reached the start of level 4, but it doesn’t work. It started a new game but said “I lost all progress” and it simply started a new game. Is there something else to the tip to make it work?

#4 Ed – try throwing all your extra balls away. Just keep hitting the button to get new balls. It will ask “Are you sure” or something like that, just say yes. When you run the balls to 0 – it will end the game and you should get your spin.

Hello Ed,
Thanks for contacting Pogo Customer Support. This is CSR Ruth.
I’m sorry to hear that you’re unable to get credit for the badge in Pogo games Lottso! Express. Players are reporting that they’re facing problem to get progress for this badge.
However, as per CSR courtesy I’ve gone ahead and added the[Hot Air Homecoming Badge]to your account ”SongwriterEd” along with 3000 tokens. Now you can view your newly obtained badge (or choose to display it) by clicking on the “See My Badges” option in the white box on the left side of your mini at the center of your Club Pogo home page. From there, you can see the “Change Badge” link, which will allow you to view your badge collection and choose which one to display.

Ed #4 – What I found made the tip work is this, when it says you have reached level 3 and earned a spin, finish using the rest of the balls and then hit refil so you have 6 new balls, then hit New Game and you get a message saying all progress will be lost etc, this seems to be working for me working on the Winter Wonderland Album.

Ed #4 Wow, so sorry to hear that, Ed. Bummer. Frustrating. I have no idea what’s happening with your game. You should get a spin after you reach goal three. It states that in the “How to Play”. And if you’re doing goal four, it should have alerted you to attainment of three. I know you have to actually SEE goal three on screen before you hit new game. Once I hit new game before I was told I had reached goal three (which I had), and it didn’t get spin.
Good luck with this! Hope you don’t need CS?
