  1. I’m not getting credit in Find-O-Vision, and others in the room reported the same thing.
    Will wait to play.

  7. Find-o-Vision is not recording finds. The badge was activated. Another fix needed from POGO. Is anyone having this problem?

  8. Trouble possibly already. Find-o-Vision is not counting and the room I was in there were plenty of people, none of them have objects counted.

  11. people may wanna hold off on find o vision, people aren’t getting credit towards the badge

  12. Is anyone getting credit for that find a vision game??? I am not and I have found all the items.

  14. I’m not getting credit for objects found in Find O vision and no else in the chat room seems to be either. Am I doing something wrong or is this a glitch?

  15. Seems like nobody is getting credit in this Find-O-Vision game, and the the screen is SO SMALL, haven’t found a way to enlarge it. People in many rooms are giving up on this badge.

  16. the find o vision is not giving me a count of my items and i did activate it.

  17. I am not getting credit for my finds in Find-O-Vision. Anyone else having problems?

  20. maybe its best to wait and work other badges until FOV issue has been addressed by EA and Pogo. just a thought rather than getting too upset on the first day of badge week 🙂

  22. Find o vision. Go to tools on your browser and zoom the screen. I went to 175 on IE. Played last week till I knew where all the items were. Use your hints. Right now all this is moot since no one is getting credit for objects found.

  23. “Support” suggests posting a complaint in the forums about the lack of badge credit for Find-o-vision.
    On the other hand, Sparks is giving badge credit properly, so at least you can get that one knocked out in the interim….

  24. Another “typical” challenge day where at least ONE challenge is NOT working! Dang it pogo why can’t things run smoothly? No credit in find-o-vision is NOT acceptable and the requirements for the badge is long enough and without credit

  25. #15-Nancy – This is one game where you can change the screen size of the browser. For my laptop, 125% makes it almost full screen. Just remember to set it back to 100% afterwards, Changing this parameter is done differently on different browsers.

  26. I’m not getting credit in Sparks either – anyone else having problems with this game?

  27. someone in sparks said u have to finish the channel to get the credit…for me that is impossible….will never do it…

  28. I am not getting credit for either of today’s challenges. Please POGO fix this problem.

  29. Janice #28 – If you want to contact Pogo you need to go to Pogo customer service, clicking on the Help link on your Pogo page.

    Suz

  30. Good morning. We are aware of the issue with the Find-o-Vision Badge and are actively working on a solution, or a back-up Badge.

  32. JANICE in sparks are u submitting your score as u wont get credit if u don’t for me its working fine…

  33. find-o-vison still not fixed. just wait will be soon i imagine . as for sparks play 1 level and hit end game you will get credit

  34. you have too finish the 3 rounds at the end of the 3 than you will see it shows!

  35. Getting credit in Sparks…playing CHALLENGING and just clicking away, lol..doing an old personal to go along with it to get credit for the special badge..it’ll take time but at least its giving credit. Hope POGO changes the other badge to something else honestly. 🙂

  37. I have played Sparks for exactly 1 hour and have 63/400. Should take me about 6 hours at that rate. (I am on rank 21)

  38. it is 8:45AM and i have just gotten CREDIT for my find-o-vision found objects, so have at it badge buddies

  41. Another find o vision problem…
    it’s getting stuck on the Try again screen and won’t change.. therefore no credit for me 🙁

  42. find o vision is working now, you get get credit per scene.. you dont need to find all 3 scenes to get credit.. use the forums tab and then the challenge tab to see your process
    if the chat is broken.. (which is on badge day ugh….. )

  43. Wow, so happy with myself, Find O Vision fixed and I actually got the badge done in less than an hour without zooming …after ya play it a bunch of times, things are easier, lol…Only one I have a problem with is the detective scene…too dark for these eyes. Its kinda fun, but same 3 scenes is boring…GOOD LUCK ALL

  44. new to badgehungry and love it. i still have a problem with getting credit for Find-O-Vision. its activated. i signed out and back in. im at a loss. any suggestions or any one else still having problems

  46. You can get a max of 30 objects in a single game.
    Took almost 3 hours to do the Sparks badge, but you can get credit in either Relaxing or Challenging mode.

  48. I had the screenshots on my ipad and Pogo on my desktop.
    Was finding the items and changing channels so quickly it was
    like I had a remote in my hand! ;)))))
    (Still 3 channels and nuthin’ worth watching!) ;(((
    (And still can’t figure out why the kitchen had a rope – to
    lasso produce trying to escape???)

  49. I am using firefox and I zoomed in increments up to 200 and my find-o-vision game never enlarged. Such a bad choice of challenges for some of us seniors. 🙁

  50. Pogo, yes we all can tell it is a badge day because a lot of us are having problems, I got up to 127/200 on Find-O-Vision and all of sudden I am not getting any more getting which doesn’t make me happy. I hope you get fix the problem. Judy 🙁

  53. Find-o-Vision – wish they would spell Congratulations correctly! Annoying!

  54. Click to pause too many times it won’t let you back in the game :/ I paused few times with both kitchen and living room, for the crime scene I did that twice and finally wouldn’t let me back into the game…Frustrating :/

  56. Thank goodness find o vision was a quick one because sparks is going to take all week I think.

  57. Karen #49
    I did mention in a previous post that Firefox’s zoom, for some reason doesn’t work on FOV. However, others do,

    BUT what normally doesn’t work on Pogo games, but does on FOV is to simply hold down the Control key while you scroll the mouse key. You can make the game any size you want. (And of course, to return to 100% just hold down the Control key and press the numeral 1.

    Good luck.

  58. I have been able to receive credits towards weekly challenge in Sparks, but have failed to receive a single token credit. And this game pays off quite handsomely in tokens.
    (When it’s paying off, of course, lol).

  59. mommalove #51 – In addition to that post I linked you can see a picture of it if you read the game’s “how to play”. Scroll down to tips & tricks and it’s the 4th one listed.

    The black bombs at the end do NOT count for this challenge.

    Suz

  60. been playing sparks for about an hour and have gotten a whopping 14 of 400. looks bleak to me for finishing.

  61. it is 1:10 pm in sc and i not getting credit for the find o vision can someone help i see they said was fixed but not here

  62. Hi all,
    Pogo has given new meaning to Wednesday as ‘hump day’ LOL…I finished FOV on my 2 accounts, am only at 49 on Sparks (that game is really annoying & painful for my wrist), got 1 Turbo app badge done….am really not enjoying much of anything today..good luck all..keep smiling.
    Ro

  63. i used Torch as my browser and click on the three hortizontal lines and find Zoom and set for 125 and worked fine and be sure set the zoom back when playing another game
    i believe this work for chrome browser too, gl

  64. I played some Sparks earlier but now the game won’t load.
    “Oh no! We’ve had a problem rendering the Pogo application”

    I’ve exited, cleared all caches, etc. Nothing fixes it.

  65. To speed up the Sparks badge use this tip:
    WilliamPorygon
    Sparks – Mega Bombs are the pieces that look like fire. They seem to be more common on the first level of each game, as power-up types other than mega bombs and mini bombs don’t show up on level 1, but power-ups show up as frequently as later levels. So it may go faster if lose on purpose quickly when you get to level 2, and just play level 1 repeatedly. It might be better to play relaxed mode also, as the first level lasts longer in that mode.

    I played 1 long game in Relaxed mode playing several levels and got 10/400!
    Then I used the tip & in 1/5 the time got 8!
    When you get to level 2 stack the sparks on top of the highest stack quickly to end the game. Then start the game again.

  66. Can not see the find-o-vision screen…………is there a way to enlarge it?

  68. #66 in the forums there are tips to enlarge your screen.. it depends what browser you use.

  70. well find o vision was fun… dont like sparks. the tv went on fritz for one game. got badge

  71. I am not getting any credits in Find-O-Vision, tried this morning and this afternoon and nothing.

  72. A Tip! For those of you that are stating “Find-O-Vision” isn’t working, I found out the hard way after many attempts that if you complete the episode you will not get credit but if you leave at least one item not done you will get credit. I cannot figure out the madness but it works, I tried again by completing the entire episode and didn’t get credit but when I left at least one item not done, I get the credit, I completed the badge. Judy 🙂

  73. #55 Jan ~ I have never heard nor played find-o-vision either. I just tried a few channels and I had to burst out laughing. Shucks, I can’t hardly see anything in the little screen and with a timer too!! It’s attaching my nerves…LOL.. So funny!! Gotta laugh about it!!
    Everyone have a fantastic week 🙂

  74. Didn’t mind Find-O-Vision but Sparks OMG I hate the game it took me hours to get the badge which made it even worse to play! Won’t play either again unless a badge needs to be done. The screen for FOV is way to small and Sparks is just not a game I would chose to play. Good luck everyone going for the badges today They are a real PITA . In my opinion .

  75. Judith #72

    Not so. I completed each one (having practiced beforehand) and got credit every time.

  76. I have no reason to complain even with the problems of the badges today. Complaining gets us nowhere and the badges eventually are won.

  77. On an otherwise very groany Wednesday – a bit of levity. In the living room, if you remove the stereo, the apple appears to levitate! Looks especially fun if vase is gone too.

  78. Thanks Momsbassett hounds….im getting there slowly but surely, lol, thought maybe was a faster way,, but reading others, I’m doing normal, haha. When I vote for which was my favorite, gonna be FOV, once I got started, I enjoyed albeit hard on the eyes. Firefox enlarged everything but that screen haha. Good luck all.

  79. Now Sparks won’t load for me. I played this afternoon, got up to a big 39, then it wouldn’t let me “play again” – I had to keep going to another room. Come back tonight and it won’t load. Says “0” for players in rooms.

  80. coreymccool4 #66 Nancy #67

    If you read my comment above: #57 you will learn the very easiest way to enlarge the screen in this particular game.

  81. I only get credit for some of the ones on the sparks one are they going to fix it maybe im just playing and getting nothing been at it all day once in awhile i will get credit for it but most of the time not later 2 hours ive got 20 in credit and should show 10 times that amount Whats up POGO

  82. cs #81 – You only get credit for certain sparks. It will say right on the score recap how many Spark Mega Bombs you activated.

    Suz

  83. Judith Hand #72

    THANK YOU! THANK YOU! THANK YOU! Your tip to leave one item unchosen in each scene on FOV positively saved me. I was finishing every episode and not getting credits. (This was on top of doing the entire Sparks Badge, w/o receiving a single token — but since I DID get the badge I’m not actually griping, just explaining that my level of frustration was pretty high). So when I read your tip I immediately tried it and it worked like a charm. It was funny, though, to eliminate every item except one, which went like a flash since I had played so many games — and then have to patiently wait for the clock to click down so I could go to the next scene.

    Leaving just one item is not something I would have thought to do — so again — many thanks for sharing this.

  84. Got Sparks to load, played a few games, got to a Mega Bomb finale and nothing happened. No Mega Bomb. I wish pogo would give us games that work. 400 is so long, it will take forever to get there, and when the game isn’t working right it is VERY frustrating!

  85. Well, it took me a few hours, but I picked up ad new rank badge and one more rank in Sparks. I had another badge that I was working on too in the Mom’s Day badge album. It was a fun LONG badge today, both were different and I liked them both, but I had memorized the Find-O-Vision, so it was pretty easy and fast.

    Have fun, everyone! 🙂

  86. Thanks Dottiedeeee # 57!!! Worked great for me! Badge done very quickly!!
    Thanks again!!! Colleen

  87. I saw that Find o vision was fixed so I played it. Got to 180/200 and it stopped counting my objects found. Is it not working again??

  88. OK – let it be said – I just about cheered when that stupid Find-O-Vision badge was done. The screen is just too small for my eyes. I usually love HOGS but that one the objects were just too small for these coke-bottom glasses – lol.

  89. #84 read the comments under #57. It explains more about what mega bombs. The ones at the mega bomb finale do not count. I have playing the relaxed mode and also play first level over again. Sometimes I get mega bombs Sometimes not. Also check How to play tab in the game for different bombs this game has. Gl

  90. Sparks – My two cents 🙂
    I’ve tried a couple of different methods based on comments here with hints/tips.
    I think I’ve made better progress and I know for sure that I’ve had more fun when I just played the game levels straight through until I lost than when I just played the first or first two levels over and over.

  91. Congratualtions? Urgh, a typo. I don’t mind the game, but with so few levels, Find-O-Vision isn’t my cup of tea. Because I started late, my clicks counted. Sparks is a quick but nice game for me.

  92. I was going to join the majority and vent my frustrations with Sparks, but I read a minority comment and am leaving, instead, with a smile. Back to work on the badge. Hugs to all, Joan

  93. I anyone having issues with getting credit on Sparks? I am not getting credit on the weekly or the daily challenge.

  94. heres my tip on find o vision. try finding the objects starting at the bottom of the list. i noticed that the items were easier to find and the items seemed to be closer together in the scenes.

    i dont have one for sparks. i dont think you can work out an easy method for a game that is more or less a match game. and is based on randomness. just keep playing. i wish if pogo was going to use match games for badges they werent so rediculously long.

  95. i played sparks on the challenging mode… its is timed ,dont worry about the timer
    i been getting 10 mega bombs per game, i hit leval 1, 2 and somtimes 3 before the timer runs out… . there are more chain reactions in this one too.. gl

  96. Be careful with the complaints about Sparks -pogo will make it a once a month challenge!!! lol

  97. I finally finished Sparks, enough said on that one.
    dottiedeedee # 83, I am glad I could help you because others have helped me so much
    on this site. Judy 🙂

  98. Find-O-Vision was the most ridiculous game I’ve ever played in Pogo. The screen was way too small, some of the objects you had to find did not even come close to looking
    like what they were suppose to and I kept getting the same 3 screens over and over.
    What a waste of time.

  99. ever. If I hadn’t worked so hard to complete all the old weeklies from before I joined I think I would have left it if undone.

  100. Lost part of my comment but was talking about the wretched sparks challenge.

  101. Find O Vision finished in 7 games and Sparks takes a long time to finish since last night

  102. I loved the Sparks challenge, but I love that game in general. It was definitely a bit too long for casual players or those who don’t like the game, though.

    Find-O-Vision, though… left me wondering why it’s even on Pogo. Only three scenes, over and over… even by the halfway point of this short challenge I was bored because I knew where most of the items were, just from using having used the hints in every game. The thing feels like something a programming student would turn in as a project.

  103. I will now only play sparks when it is a challenge…I still need 50 some to get the badge and am leaving for a week long conference…hope I have a few spare hours tonight as I still need to start the fov badge. If I wasn’t badge addicted I would have skipped this week for sure. All the help listed here kept me going and not sure if I would have gotten close without it. Thanks.

  104. I’m skipping the Sparks badge, way too long to bother with when there’s tournament games to be played, and when I don’t like the game to begin with. I’ll wait until there’s another badge for it and combine it. The other one, Find-O-Vision, didn’t like that timer but after having to redo several screens many times you get to know where everything is so it was OK. I did the ctrl+ to make it bigger, that helped.

  105. I love playing Sparks. It reminds me of the retro-game “Tetris.” I have not yet tried Find-O-Vision. I know that the small screen will be a problem for me, because of my eyesight. I wish all the games had a full screen option.
