  1. this will be fun…just wanted to let everyone know that you have to complete at least 3 challenges on your own to earn the balloonado escape badge….hope you all get there…not looking forward to the time machines so fed up with escape..but hey ho they are free so must not complain…good luck to all…FEM

    • The easiest room for the time macchine badge is Early India…First Time Machine Room and for the golden tiles it’s Early India first room. Hope this helps. These are both relatively short and pretty easy.

      Iain

    • I can’t get past most time machines. I played the first one in China over and over. I’ve got about four of the machines in different levels and places that I try once in a while to move ahead.

  2. What’s a gift challenge in Mahjong Escape?
    I figure in Poppit Party it’s a daily challenge
    & in Bingo use a power up or get Bingo’s?

    • Gift challenges are the 6 free badges they’ve given us for the site wide challenge =) Poppit!Party is super pop’s and collecting costume pieces(you can have all costumes and still get this badge), the badges for the site wide and the requirements are listed above =D

  3. When/ if we get the set of badges completed, does replaying the badges ( or maybe just one) help boost the total towards the site challenge goal?
    In the past, repetitive play was the only way to win Site Challenges, but I’m not sure about this one.

    Thanks,
    Amanda

    • Yes, that’s the only way we’ll win this challenge … I found that #2 is the quickest for me to do over and over except I have to refresh my screen every time I finish it so it will let me do it again.

    • So replaying/activating these same badges does help? Just to be clear I have finished all of the gift badges and want to contribute more…want to insure I’m participating properly. Thanks, I realize this may seem redundant.

      • Yes, reactivating and redoing these 6 badges will contribute to the site wide challenge goal.

  4. love the pogo is making a requirement of earning at least 3 of the free badges given to get the site wide badge
    this effectively stops those lazy peeps who would just activate the site challenge and never play yet still earn the badge.
    The badges are easy and I already have 2 done
    GL all in earning this site wide goal

    • I’m so with you on this!! And especially the people that would post that they were going to activate and not participate, always a few that did that in the forums.

      Hopefully we will get enough people who understand what they need to do to activate and participate.

      Good Luck Everyone!!

      Suz

        • Play in the highest room available to you and always play 4 cards. Use the golden balloons power up and the power up with the ? in the middle. Only call the first 3 bingos, after that just wait and use the cactus cannon. It took me 3 games.

          Good Luck!

          Suz

          • I thought this one would be fun, but I ended up disgusted. I played several games, and couldn’t even get bingos using powerups, and the cactus cannon. I earned only 5 tickets. The last game I played, I finally won 1 bingo and then the game froze, so I couldn’t collect my winnings. I couldn’t believe it. I have played before and always got a couple wins per game. I wasted a lot of powerups and cactus cash for nothing.

    • I am retired as of Friday! Lots of Pogo time now. What are the easy badges, I will do those. Thank you!

      • It can only be the badges that Pogo gave us this morning, the 6 that have a trophy on them and the numbers 1 thru 6.

        Suz

          • I’ll give you 1 from each game

            Poppit Bingo – Trophy #1 – Daub 810 numbers correctly

            Poppit Party – Trophy #4 – Make 100 Super Pops

            Mahjong Escape – Trophy #6 – Collect 48 gold bars

            Poppit Bingo is going to be crowded, so unless you are in a high room you may have a problem with the tickets required for the other PB Badge.

            Poppit Party badges were a toss up, but you can set up super pops, you can’t predict the number of chests you will get.

            Mahjong Escape was an easy pick. I’ll take redoing Early India #1 24 times over doing the 18 timed puzzles any day of the week.

            But that is just my opinion. You may like the other challenges better.

            Good Luck!

            Suz

          • I’m sure that’ll vary person by person, but for *me* I enjoy Poppit!Bingo, so those 2 would be easy, I don’t like Mahjong Escape, but there are people who do and who only use certain locations, etc. and same goes for Poppit!Party, I think the super pop’s will be easy though, not sure on the items, though that too should be easy =)

          • MomsBassetHound, Thanks for your thoughts on the 3 easy. I will do those first. I will never do the time machine…..I have tried every way and just can not do that one. Thank God we got to have a few different choices.
            I also agree with giving people the badges to do as well as signing up for the badge…..I think we all know people that just expect the handouts.
            Good luck everyone. We can do this.

  5. 1) I wonder if re-doing the same challenge repeatedly counts towards the progress or not?
    2) I like that they’ve included a requirement that players have to complete at least three of the challenges to get the reward badge and tokens, no getting it by activating at the last minute and not contributing this time. I wonder how others feel about it though.

  6. You only need to complete 3/6 to get the site wide challenge badge(it’s also noted in badge central within the text for site wide challenge info)- Also, only the badges we were given count toward the site wide challenge, none of our own mix and match/album badges will count =(

    • You need to active the badges and only have to earn 3 of them to get the site wide challenge badge, you can however finish all 3 if you like- Just play the games and follow the requirements of each free mix and match badge given =)

  8. Nice gifts again from Pogo!! I don’t like any of these newer games and only do them for badges…..but they are free! 🙂 I do like that Pogo is forcing everyone to participate if they want the site-wide challenge badge.

  9. Question…..It’s been asked above but not answered. Does anyone know whether redoing these badges will count toward the site challenge? Have fun everyone and Happy Birthday Pogo.

    • i would think it counts as when u do the site wide other challenges you can play and play…if we just do the 6 badges then we wouldn’t make the goal…so I guess yes it all counts if we replay or even just play the bingo games and the mah-jong escape I wouldn’t think you have to reactivate the badges again…but I’m sure you can…hope I’m right in telling you this,…if not I’m sure I will be put right…FEM

  10. i looked over the challenge for the site wide challenge and Popitt bingo looks like the easy ones to complete.. we need 3 to get the site wide challenge.. we can do this. i like the free badges.

  11. I tried to get the “free” episode of Clue with the Happy 18 code and instead of getting a free episode they say there aren’t enough items in the cart. Thanks POGO for the not free episode

    • The last 4 episodes are excluded, as Lura posted in the article above.

      I was able to get free episodes on all my accounts, actually gifted all of them to Holly’s account. I had no problem!!

      Suz

  12. Still no new costumes in poppit party so the badge gifted to me for the costume pieces cant be done. Any ideas when they will have some new costumes?

    • As of last Thursday they were still being designed, so not until 2018 probably.

      According to posts in the forums the duplicate costume pieces are counting for this badge, so you can complete it.

      Good Luck!

      Suz

      • Yes, I just tried – and all 6 pieces counted towards badge progress, even though they don’t count towards anything else (as all of my costumes are completed and coins are maxed).

  14. If everyone just did 3 of the gift badges it will need 166,666.6666666 players to reach 500,000 a bit ominous dont you think.

    • But less people doing all 6, and then redoing them for 5 days will allow us to make the goal!!

      Suz

      • I think we need to reactivate each time we redo a badge for credit toward sitewide. I will be spending the week in Poppit Bingo once I complete all six.

    • Ya know, I was wondering approximately how many members does Club Pogo have. Personally I would think there’s more than “166,667”. Anyone have an idea?

      • The last site wide challenge had about 210,000 Club accounts participating.
        That total does not include members who did not join for whatever reason –
        were not interested, were away from Pogo does days, members who have stopped
        using the site but there membership has not expired yet.
        I would guess there are 220,000 to 240,000 members.

    • Now, 6:23pm ET, the Site-Wide Challenge says,
      4 days 8 hours left!
      8,091 of 500,000
      Challenges Completed

      Keep re-activating these gift badges to re-do them y–
      Go Go and Good Luck al

  15. I love that Pogo is doing this! I have no problem doing these challenges and at least you can jump around the games instead of all 6 of the same. Poppit Party I have everything and just waiting for the new costumes to arrive. Can’t collect any more wardrobes and pretty sure the duplicated ones from the chests won’t count. Anyone know for sure? Good luck and don’t forget to activate the site-wide challenge first!

  16. Well so far so good. Poppit Party’s being nice enough. I think I’ve unlocked 4 costumes since starting my badge. LOL

  17. I’m going to enjoy this one, as I rather like all 3 games, ME especially.

    I think it’s wonderful that Pogo has been giving us so many free badges, and tying them to some fun and creative challenges. The M&M sales might not be as epic as they used to be, but this is a pretty nice alternative. I have 2 albums filled with gifts from Pogo.

    Very clever of them to make winning the challenge contingent on actually participating.

  18. i know its just the first day but looking at how many have activated there is just over 5,000,,i know people have lives and many work..i have two completed and two activated and partway ..i have to wait for me as i already had a badge activated in it and 2/3 thru so need to finish it first but should be finished with it in a couple hours.. doing laundry also..hopefully no one is working on badges and forgetting to activate the sitewide…nice that this time e/1 will actually have to do something

    • The count doesn’t seem to be adding up. I’m thinking people activated it like always but didn’t understand they HAVE to play. Almost 6000 activated but less than 5000 completed. I’ve completed several as I’m sure many have

      • I activated last night (I’m in Alaska time zone), however when I tried to play it wouldn’t let me into any of the games. I’m just getting ready to try again.

      • Yup, I activated before I went to work this morning, and am working on completing some now…that might be the same for a lot of folks.

  19. A very good luck to all doing the Site Wide Challenge.

    I have the two ME badges done and working on Poppit Party for the 100 wardrobe items. I started the day with the Slingo Blast badge to get that out of the way.

    Progress seems to be slow but hopefully it will pick up.

  20. When I first read that it was going to be a “with balloons” SWC I thought great! there are 4 Poppit games and why not Bloons2 too?
    And here we are, down to only 2 “ballon-games” and …. Mahjong Escape of course! How could I be so blind and dumb!

    I forsee lots of complaints and a lot of work for all the Help reps. after the special badge has been awarded.
    “I activated but didn’t receive the special badge and tokens” complaints ffrom players who didn’t know that for this challenge they really had to contribute with at least 3 badges done.

      • Agree! I’m afraid most people think that they just have to play the six games to win the sitewide so will stop playing. Please keep reactivating your favorite of the six to work toward the sitewide special badge. I can only imagine the complaints 🙁

  21. I don’t have much use for any of those games so I won’t participate this time.I wish Pogo would stop pushing Escape and Sol Gardens all the time!

  22. Great that the badges are free, but if they are going to keep jamming mahjong escape at us, they could at least give us the the new ranks so that we are not just repeating levels over and over. That’s what bugs me….. same thing with solitaire gardens.
    I just don’t understand why they say there are 200 ranks, yet will not put out the new ones and let us go to town on them .. LOL
    Good luck everyone 🙂

    • They release a new city with 60 new puzzles on the 1st of every month, and the ranks go up to 200. There are plenty of new ME puzzles.

      Solitaire Gardens gets a new garden on the 15th of every month, with 60 new levels.

      Suz

  23. Well, I have finished 4 of the challenge badges, and thank goodness the ME ones are done, I have done 1 Bingo and 1 Party which I will play and play and play and activate those badges tons of times. I can tolerate those, because they are fun. 🙂

    We can do this, let’s keep on trying and having fun, everyone!!! 🙂

  24. I couldn’t be more excited about this SWC! These are actually my 3 favorite games! I also, like everyone else, love that you must participate to receive the badge. I hope that is a trend that pogo keeps up in the future. Good luck to everyone participating!

  25. I’m going to play as much as I can but the rain has moved into Louisiana and I may have to move to higher ground.

  26. Thanks for all the info on the Challenge. Looks like I will be reactivating a lot to get this done.

    Good luck everyone

  27. Well it seems as if this challenge will really sort out the ones that just activate then sit back and get their badge for doing nothing, from the ones that actually play to gain the side wide challenge it is 10.30pm uk time and the total number of participants is only 6,689! with just over 4 days to go. Will be watching with interest

  29. I finished all 6, but honestly, I can’t really see replaying, especially ME. I detest that game. But I did learn to enjoy PP. I don’t get the costume thing completely, but it’s kind of fun with that twist. So may replay that to unlock more costumes (think I have 7 more to unlock). Sure don’t get the cleaning deal.

    Anyway, earned 5 badges in addition to the 6 gifted for the marathon, just ranking up. And the Clue freebie. That’s a personal record! 😀

  30. So far so good with this SWC. Working on getting all badges done before concentrating on the challenge. Have completed ME and off to PP Like others have commented glad to see you actually have to play instead of just activating. Love the fact that Pogo gave us badges to work towards our goal. Thank you. Sure hope we nail this — just have to have this adorable badge! Last check 122,959 participants with 2%.

    Gl to all!

  31. Well the activation count is going up! None of these
    are fav’s so I’ll just keep re-activating the badges.
    GLA

  32. While I was playing Poppit! Party_Site-wide #5, I also had activated and was playing Pogo Bowl_Knockdown “10” Silver Pins. I would keep playing Poppit! Party until I heard the Pogo Bowl bell letting me know a gold or silver pin was available. I would then go and knock down the bowling pin and then return to Poppit! Party. I completed both badges within ‘1″ minutes of each other. I’ve now completed “5 of 6” Site-wide challenges as well as Slingp Blast. Good Luck eveyone!

  33. I’ve read through the entire thread. Good job so far BHers, and thanks for the hints/tips!
    I think we’ll see progress tomorrow because, as a working person, I think each but the Poppit Bingo “tickets” badge will take two days of the play time available.
    I activated 3 this morning, 1 in each game, finished the “tickets badge quickly in two games, but will need today and tomorrow for the other 2 I activated.
    Question: How quickly is the Poppit Bingo for 810 numbers going for anyone?
    If it’s too slow, I’ll just keep re-doing the “tickets” badge instead.

      • Thanks, Suz. It sounded daunting, but 10 games isn’t too bad.
        Still, for the purposes of adding to the challenge, re-doing the other makes more sense.

        I often guess wrong, badges that look daunting go quickly, and badges I think will be fast are slow.
        Just like I think I can clean up/out a closet quickly until I look up and see it’s two hours later and stuff is everywhere…lol.

    • Yes, as long as it’s only 1 per game. I have 3 activated, 1 in each of the 3 games.

      Suz

  35. I actually don’t mind having to do at least 3 of the badges to earn the site wide challenge one. I like that we have some badges to work on with it. Makes it much more fun to do IMO. The only thing I wish was that it wasn’t with the 2 Poppit games since they work so slow for me no matter what browser I am using at this point.

  36. Not sure if here is where to ask this but I hope someone can help me! I’ve been playing the time machine badge for ME and the tiles won’t match right away…. Like a delayed reaction, somehow!! The bar showing how much time is left works perfectly, thereby not allowing me to get that level towards the badge because it times out! It’s hard enough for me to get a time machine level anyway, but having the game “malfunction” like this is extra annoying! Is there something I can do?

    • I’m having trouble with every game I’m playing…I’m just giving up until the morning. Maybe too many people are playing tonight.

      • I followed your lead, Library, and this morning it did the same thing! Tried switching from Firefox to Chrome…., now the game is working perfectly!! Also someone suggested the first time machine (level 5) in Japan is best for this challenge. I’m finding that to be true for me!! = )

    • When my game plays like that I clear my cache and quit out of my browser. When I come back in, it is usually ok. (I have a Mac – don’t know if that makes a difference.)

  37. GL to ALL on completing the 6 free badges. and completing the SWC as well. Think the ME will take the longest PP be the easiest and PB for me be about 3 days….. Thanks for the 6 free badges also… Happy Anniversary POGO 😉

  38. The SWC bonus badge require us to: “Win 500,000 Poppit! Party, Poppit! Bingo and Mahjong Escape Gift Challenges between August 28th and September 1st with your fellow Club Pogo members to earn the Balloonado Escape Badge plus 50,000 tokens!”

    I am replaying Poppit Bingo challenge #2 as it takes me only 2 games at most to earn it. Figured I can complete more gift challenges that way. Hope everyone is having fun 🙂

    Please don’t forget to keep my fellow Texans to the south in your thoughts and prayers. I feel guilty having a beautiful sunny day in the Dallas area while such a tragedy is happening.

  39. Well I completed all 6 badges, they were not bad at all. i just stuck with it and it all came together. Good luck everyone.

  40. For kodi06 regarding the free CLUE Episode –

    You have to go to the CLUE Game, open it and then make your selection from one of the Episodes listed. (The 4 most recently-released episodes are excluded.) Click on “Get Now” . That will open a page with your cart. Enter the coupon code of HAPPY18 and click Apply.

  41. Earning the tickets in Poppit Bingo is tedious. I’ve been using the power up that turns the numbers gold, not calling Bingo and then spending the cash on the cactus power up. I’m only earning 0-4 tickets per game. I came close to running out of the cash that I spent hours to earn. I’m beginning to really detest the game. I’ve also been playing in rooms that have a relatively high number of players, so I’m thinking that might be my problem.
    Earned the two badges in Poppit Party early in the day. That went by okay.
    Still have to complete the Surprise Challenge badge and the two badges in Mahjong Escape.

    • jersey, do what you’re doing but call the bingos. Also, if you have the tickets, play the highest level and the most cards that you can. It pays off better. Good luck.

  42. I really wish they had made the Site-Wide “complete ANY badges” in the site-wide games. Because of all the m&m they have been releasing, I am SO far behind, and I hate re-doing badges, when I have other ones yet undone.
    Besides the fact, since they’ve never had a site-wide this specific before (and we KNOW how so many people are about reading directions), I think it may be a close-one… How many non-BH’ers are going to think: ok, done my 3, or completed all 6, and go on to other things?
    And yeah, I too think they could have & should have picked ANY other Balloon-Game instead of having ME yet again, and I like that game, but doesn’t fit with the badge & they KNOW so many are sick of it.

  43. i am on the second badge for 3 for the SWC. i noticed in Poppitt Party i been getting a blank blank screen.. i hope Pogo enginners fix this.. i kicks out and i have to restart the game again.. its very frustrating. i wonder if others having the same problem…

    • No, I just played Poppit Party, it played smoother for me. I use Chrome in full screen. Good luck, hope you get to play soon.

  44. On Mahjong Escape if you go to Egypt do the first puzzle ( 1 ) it’s super fast you can get tons of four of a kind, don’t have to use any power ups to finish and it’s easy, fast can match fast and see! Goodluck!

    • Thank-you LindaChicken – maybe I WILL try to play MJ Escape after all for one of the Challenge badges: Egypt here I come!

  45. Well I’m 2/6. One Party one Bingo.
    Trying to get the Time Machine one for Escape done.
    Yes, I know the gold tile one’s easier, lol.

    I figure I can finally muddle through and get the 2016 weekly complete that needs 20. Meh. Boy its a long haul.

  46. Badge clarification needed. If we have undone MM badges in the games for the site wide challenge other than the 6 badges that were gifted to us, will those count towards progress also?

    Applause to the genius who figured out reactivating the 6 gifted badges will count towards progress. . . would never have thought of that.

  47. ME is not crediting if you win. Is there a glitch? Does anyone have any idea why this is happening? TY

  48. I keep getting ‘pogo server busy’ and ME keeps freezing. I have cleared cache, etc. I use Safari. Anyone else having issues?

    jwalters1395

    • Nothing you can do until Pogo fixes it. The site is coming and going for me.

      Suz

    • we all are having issues. I hope pogo extends the time we have to do the all site challenge……..but guess that would be wishful thinking…..hahah

      • Seems like this happens just about every time there’s a site-wide challenge. Or it might just seem that way! LOL

  49. Thank you for responding, Suz and Lizzbrad. It IS frustrating when trying to work on the SWC, but at least I’m not alone!

    jwalters1395

  50. Boy Escape is frustrating.
    I gave in and bought shuffles. I get so close to the end, having to restart.
    *sticks out tongue*

  51. Okay Pogo Insider has new information:
    “Please note: For the Site-Wide Challenge, there is a lot of flexibility in how you contribute to the goal and qualify for the reward. For example, you can play the same gifted Badge three times and still qualify for the Site-Wide Challenge rewards. You can play any combination of the gifted Site-Wide Celebration Badges. Play just one three times, play them all, or play your favorite three – it’s entirely up to you. If you’ve got the time and motivation, keep playing and replaying them to help reach the goal sooner!”

    So you can play 1 of the 6 badges 3 times and get the completion badge.
    Or play only 1 of the 3 games 3 badges worth.

    • I saw that comment about playing the same badge 3 times, but I feel safer having 3 different badges showing….just in case I have to prove I did at least 3 badges…lol

      Suz

        • But it doesn’t have a date when you got that X2 or X3, nothing to prove it was before 9/1/17.

          Suz

  52. i finished the 3 badges for SWC…. i did one Popitt Party and 2 for Poppitt Bingo… they are the easiest for me and get them done before the Wednesday challenges tomorrow.. gl everyone and prayers for Houston . I read over 49 inches of rain down there on the gulf coast

  53. How do I know when I have completed the three challenges required in relation to this site-wide challenge? I believe I have completed three of those but am not absolutely sure as to whether I have indeed done so.

    • If you’ve earned 3 of the trophy badges given to you yesterday morning(Poppit Party/Bingo and Mahjong Escape), then you’re good to go and will get the site wide challenge badge/tokens =) As for knowing that you earned them, check your badges(by clicking Badges on the homepage under Quick Links)

  54. I see Pogo Llama posted that the game loading issues have been resolved.
    But with Poppit Party and Poppit Bingo I am having major problems with loading and then staying connected once I get it to load.
    So frustrating, especially since I’m just trying to get the badges done and contribute.
    I might scream soon or just walk away from the computer 🙂

    • Hi RyandShyn,

      Your trouble could be because you need to clean out your browser cache. Usually you place your cursor inside the page of the browser site, then click Ctrl +
      Shift + Del Keys together.

      With that done, sign out of your browser, close it completely
      Reopen your browser again, and signin to your Pogo site

      When I do this, my game will play for more than 4 hours.
      Hope this helps, Good Luck in your games.
      Millie

      • What browser are you using? That is not how you do it for Internet Explorer.

        Suz

        • Thanks, Millie. That’s an unusual way you clean, never heard of doing it that way before.
          Yes, though, I cleared, cleaned, shutdown, rebooted, still had problems so then cleared, cleaned, shutdown, re-set the modem and wifi, started it all back up and still had problems.
          I walked away and went out to dinner with friends 🙂
          Magically, 4 hours later, it’s working fine again……proving once again that Pogo and it’s finicky servers can drive a person mad.

        • It usually is in your browser right hand corner telling how to clean your cache. If not you can go to Google and type in your browser name and Clean Cache. Hope this helps everyone.

          • As I have to often times try 3 browsers to get Pogo games to load recently I continue to use ccleaner, a free cleaner that cleans all browsers in on click. I have been using it for years…just a FYI for our members. 🙂

  55. Hi All, I just finished my 3 required gifted badges, now I am going to work on the 3. 🙂

  56. I did four different badges just to be safe – both Poppit Party and both Poppit Bingo. Since 81 ticket one usually takes me 2-3 games to complete, I did it 8 times for good measure. I will work on Mahjong Escape badge over the next couple days, too.

    I see that now we have over 160,000 people who activated the badge – and if each of them does the required 3 badges and then some do more than that – we should meet the goal. I feel comfortable enough with the progress and my contribution to it that I can actually spend the rest of the week focusing on cleaning the house, since that is why I took this week off! 🙂 And boy, does it need to get done.

    Good luck to all of us! And best of luck to those affected by flooding in Texas…

  58. Worked on PP and ME for two days. The only balloons I want to see are the ones in the badge, lol. Rest of challenge will be in PB. Last check 161,066 participants @ 36%.. Been having too much fun have to rest up to continue on through the end.

    Gl All!

  59. Well, I’ve got my 18 time machines. Oh lord what a battle.
    Trying to hold through and get 2 more for the weekly I’m working on.
    If anything, leaving most of my areas set to go on that level and building them up for awhile helped a little.

  60. Does anyone know how they are figuring out the math percentage for completion? Is it based on total number of badges sent out (opened or not) or based on the number of badges actually opened and/or activated?

    Depending on how the math is computed, there could be a significant difference in percentage completed. I see the count is up to 35% so there is hope, regardless.

      • On the actual badge page I see the denominator is 500,000. Not sure if it is an arbitrary number (based on the number badges supplied to club members) but was curious if that number of 500, 000 is 1/5 of the badges sent, 3/4 of the badges sent, etc.

        Just a curious thought after a long day 🙂

        • The “500,000” represents the Site Wide challenge “badge” goal we members must complete in order to earn the Balloonado Escape special edition badge plus “50,000” tokens. When Pogo divides the current number of completed Site Wide badges by the “500,000” goal and multiply it by “100”, that’s how the “current” completion percentage is calculated.

  61. Wonderful surprise and generous gifts! Thank-you POGO. If I might make an observation…there was a recent gifted badge, or was it two – of Mahjong Escape. I’ve been playing so much of this game I can barely remember my name. When I saw the two badges for this game and that they are not easy ones…well, my heart sunk. I am MJ Escaped out for now. I don’t know how others feels but I would have enjoyed challenges from a game we haven’t played in a while.

    But play away and have fun I will – just on other games. (;-D

  62. I completed the 6 badges, then went back in and played one game of each of the challenge games. Am I covered for the badge? Just making sure. lol

    • Yes, but just playing the games adds nothing to the challenge. If you still want to contribute you need to reactivate 1 of the badges and complete it again.

      Suz

      • TY….I’ll have to remember that if they do the next site wide challenge like this again.

  64. I think they considered the number of participants from previous Site Wide challenges, then x3 because of the 3 required challenges and then they adjusted (lower) the amount a bit to compensate for those who activate but don’t play and rounded the number.

    Only the ones who designed the challenge know, you should ask llama.
    Not that she knows but she can ask.

  65. I wonder how many times Early India #1 has been played since Mahjong Escape debuted? 🙂
    Bless the game developer that stuck that level in there, I’m so glad it’s there because I’ve used it lots, but if I never play it again it’ll be too soon!

    • I was playing China level 2 until early this morning when someone told me about that level and I will always use it from now on- Soooo easy and quick, I am so thankful I know about that level!I thought the other was quick, but Early India is a better layout =) I’m so over that stinkin’ game!(and I’ve said in the discord chat if I ever come to like Mahjong Escape, to kick me in the rear end because I can’t stand it, haha!I got to liking Solitaire Gardens, so never know with me, lol)

  66. I have been doing the challenges on my sadly neglected 2nd account, and surprisingly it’s turned out to be fun to go way back to the very beginning of the two :Poppit games. Ahhh, memories. lol Hope we make this.

  68. Well, I’m 4/6. I may actually finish the last 2 by deadline. LOL
    My super pops are halfway.
    And I’m totally surprised to say this after the time machine badge, but I may go psych myself up for gold tiles. LOL.

    • I finished all 6 and surprised myself by doing the Poppit Party super pop badge over again, to help “the cause”!! I got smart this time around. If I get one or 2 super pops (sometimes more!) I start a new game, rather than go through all the rigamarole!! Works for me!! = )

  69. 91% can safely say we will meet our goal! Hope ev1 has as much fun as I did. Congrats to all!

  70. I am on the 6th badge which is great for me because I work 10 hours a day, it is a good thing that I get slow and work in a secure/locked room so management can’t just walk in… mum is the word….lol
    I still do more than my share of work, sometimes I don’t get any Pogo time because I am too busy.
    That my Pogo friends is a shame……lol 🙂

  75. Yippee SWC is complete! Good going and congrats everyone who participated. I can’t imagine all the slackers who never played baraging Pogo about not getting the badge. I was glad to see this feature included in this SWC!

  76. WTG everyone!
    Looking forward to seeing what is in store for us, tomorrow, the Anniversary date 🙂
    Always on to the next thing in our Pogo!

  79. The challenge is met! It seemed to me it was a tough goal and it got off to a slow start, but whoa! the players did come through! I sit here wondering just how many times some players did each badge? I personally only got 3 1/2 done. 🙁

    • I got all six badges done , on the 3rd day. The time machine one was the hardest for me at first. But then I played in Japan the first one and it went pretty fast then. Then I just kept activing the pop one for the costumes. I did that one 4 times and last night did the super pop one a second time. Even though I did the costume one over and over, I still have 4 to unlock lol. But will, be taking a break from that one also for a bit lol.

  80. Congrats to all who took part in the Site Wide Challenge. I got all badges done that Pogo Spike gave us, plus a few extra badges done in Poppit Bingo when I felt the challenge was going to be won.

  81. Here is a Q for all you AMazing People…

    the site wide challenge was due to last until today, ….. and some time….not sure what time.
    but the community finished the challenge.
    I was planning on finishing my Third badge Today…. which i am nearly completed with…

    because the challenge is over, is the opportunity to earn the bonus badge and 50,000 tokens over as well??

    thank you

    • I have not seen the official answer to that. The Mods were under the impression that as long as a member finished 3 badges by this evening that they would get the badge. They are telling people to continue on while waiting for official word from the staff.

      If you are almost finished I would do it, and fight for my completion badge if necessary!!

      Suz

    • You’re very welcome!

      This could be the reason that Pogo Llama said it could take up to 2 weeks to get the completion badge.

      To answer your other question, it ended at exactly 8pm pacific / 11pm eastern last night.

      Suz

  83. The Site Wide challenge was completed by the community at 8pm, or the challenge was set to END no matter what at 8pm?
    Im assuming you mean the challenge was completed at 8pm by the community b/c that was still august 31st. My birthday btw.

    thats why i had to wait until today to finish my third site wide challenge…

    i know I should always finish these challenges EARLY EARLY EARLY……. haha

    i have finished the third one now. So I guess Ill just wait and see what happens…

    thx for the info

    Ciao for now

  84. I was under the impression that this is just like past site wides(without the freebie badges/having to do them for it to count) and we had to have had 3/6 if we chose to or all 6 done by the time it hit 100% since that’s how it’s always been- I wonder if they’re changing that this time around or not too, which honestly in my opinion don’t understand why it’d change to having to have them done by the date deadline, but that is Pogo for you and I can see both sides/I can also agree on 1 hand that having until date deadline is nice, but on other it should still be like previous site wides with us having to be done when it hits 100% =)

    • It’s not going to affect me one way or the other since I had all 6 done on my account, and 3 done on all my other accounts. But as long as someone activated the site wide and did 3 badges by the original end date of 9/1 I think they earned it. If they were working on their last badge last night we all got credit for their first 2 badges 🙂

      And that’s the argument I would use if I had to fight for my badge!

      Suz

      • Did you get your tokens and badge yet? I did 3/6 and I still have not seen badge or tokens. I was done before Friday. I was just curious to. I have not see anyone wit it as of yet. thank you. 🙂

        • Pogo Llama stated that it could take 2 weeks to verify the information and award the badge & tokens. So I’m not even looking for it until next week.

          Suz

  85. My husband and I are after getting the Site Wide Challenge badge. For those that didn’t get it yet and had completed at least 3/6 towards it, hang on in there because it’s on it’s way. 🙂

  86. Nice surprise to see the SWC badge this AM after signing in. Quicker than expected. Thanks Pogo!

    Have a great day all!
