  1. From looking at the challenges it appears that all but 1 can be done on an easy level of your choice with the exception of part 9… the butterflies wont appear until level 17 I believe.
    Best of luck everyone.

  2. I’m doing bejewelled stars badge 5 it wants 30 level stars I’m doing levels & there’s no stars can u help as this is the last of 10 & I’m stuck

    Can u help

    • It appears that it’s not counting levels that you redo. I haven’t tried doing a new level yet.

      Suz

      • Oh, this is not good. I am So So Stuck on level 128. I’m not sure even what to do with it and didn’t see much about it in the forums. I do have some levels where I can work on extra stars but I don’t think enough for 30.

        As I’m stuck and may not even be able to finish I think I’ll multi activate as many as I can.

      • You can redo levels but you have to earn more stars than you already had. If you have 3, you can’t get any credit. Good luck everyone.

    • It would appear that only NEW stars collected count…so you must improve on a previous board or win a new one….as for the unfortunate people who have 3 stars on all levels I would guess the only way would be to do the daily challenges and get 30 stars in the next 14 days.

      • I haven’t noticed any stars on the daily challenges. This one will be the toughy of the bunch.

        Good luck everyone.

        • You are correct. We do not earn stars on the Daily Challenges.
          I’m guessing then that they will have to change #5 since many people have 3 stars on all levels now and wont be able to complete #5 unless a change is made 🙂
          Good for all of us 🙂

      • That won’t do for those of us who have 3 stars on all levels! Pogo has to change it because it’s not fair for those of us who play all the time! If they are going to have a challenge like that they should add new levels first!

      • That’s where I find myself. I have finished all the levels & it’s really hard to improve on my star count. Debating whether to dump the challenge & finish the others first, I have 5/30 & that took a while.

    • Hi Sally,

      You have to do levels with either one or two stars on them to get this badge, or carry on with new levels and this will count, gl.

      AJ

      • Have finished all but #5 & that will be virtually impossible for me as am having trouble getting past the level ‘m on now. EA loves to throw in an impossible one on most challenges, lol.

        • Joe –
          It’s documented from Pogo Llama (on the forum thread about the event being “live”) that they realize that people who already have 3 stars on all levels wouldn’t be able to do Lap #5 and so they are in the process of “fixing” it.
          Her latest post (that I can find) says it might be tomorrow,

    • Go to level 1 and finish it. Should take 3 moves. Do the Felis move with three blue gems. Next make a cross with the 5 white gems below that. Next connect the 5 red gems on the bottom row
      Use the cube to eliminate the white gems.. You should win and get the 3 stars for the level
      Just repeat level 1 10 times

      • Tried this method 3 times & got the stars but never got credit for them. Chatted with other members also about it & they too got the stars but no credit. Maybe an EA foul up so will keep trying it.

        • As of right now you have to win new stars for credit on badge #5. So you can either go forward, or wait until they change something. I’ll just play new levels and get it over with.

          Suz

          • Have finished all levels up to 50 except for #9 & can’t bust that one as is hard to get rid of squares even tho you bust them it seems like you need to bust them a lot more than once. #5 may be impossible to get even playing #1 as explained above does not work.

      • 30 games and 30 levels are the same thing. Originally it was to win 30 level stars, but it only counted if they were stars you hadn’t earned before. Pogo had to change it b/c there were members that had completed all 420 levels, with 3 stars on all of them.

        Suz

    • each level has “3 stars” you can earn upon completion, depending on your score, u may receive 1, 2 or 3.. Hope this helps

  4. It looks like for number 5 you can’t replay previous levels, it only counts new levels or levels where you get more stars than whatever you had previous. So for those who have finished all levels I dont know how this badge is even remotely fair. I hope this is an oversight and gets fixed.

          • Thank you so much! I did find them and have been successful in getting the badge. Whew! I might actually be able to do all of the badges in this marathon. I only have the butterflies left…

        • Hi Linda, when you have a game on the screen look for a question mark (?) on the bottom left. Click on the question mark and it will bring up a screen. If you click on “special elements” you will see what the crystal looks like as well as tips on how to get rid of crystals.

          Hope this helps!

  6. pogo is having issues with #5… Level stars are when you complete the level… I play level 1 over again and still no credit!

  7. For those doing Badge no 5 – earn 30 level stars – on each level you can earn up to 3 stars – a bit like cookie connect and jetset etc.Some levels are harder than others – each star represents a points target eg 1 star 100k 2 stars 140k 3 stars 180k
    The problem with this badge is,unlike previous badges similar in cookie connect and Jetset – stars from previous completed levels do NOT count at the moment.So you can’t say redo lv 2 over and over 10 times to get the 30 stars.
    I have posted on forums regarding this matter as I believe it is unfair – not to mention it makes it impossible for people that have completed all 420 levels with 3 stars to complete the badge. It is uncertain whether you can earn stars from the daily.
    Hopefully Pogo will fix it and make is possible for ALL players to earn the badge

  9. i received this message from Pogo Llama bout the Lap 5 problem
    Thank you for your message. I’ve alerted the team and will keep all posted with an update. I really appreciate the heads up!

    • I don’t understand about multi activating. When I try to activate more than one. it tells me I can’t do that.

      • You have to activate and replace 1 by 1 with each one and plan that you will do the last one you replace with. Then after you do that 1, you can then activate several at time doing it in the badge challenges tab. You still have to be fast and usually you have to do ones that are next to each other..

  12. This has to be the easiest marathon ever! And, it’s kind of fun too 🙂
    I activated all but #5 as I’m waiting to see what the outcome will be about replaying for credit or not.
    I played the easiest by itself (2,000,000 points), and then multi-activated in bunches as I could.
    I play daily to up my rank/coins/power-up collection, and this marathon is adding to all those totals nicely –
    I even earned 1 more Game Award badge and I’m not done. Nice!

  13. From the forum:

    Re: Fast like Felis Lap 5
    by Mod_Skratty » October 14th, 2020, 2:18 pm

    Pogo is aware of this issue and has alerted necessary personnel. We advise patience and playing for some of the other Marathon challenges or the Weekly challenges until the issue is resolved.

    • Thank you for this info. Fred – I felt like others that this was an error. I will wait patiently to get ready to do Level 2 10 times, which is the fastest and easiest to do.
      All the other challenges for this Marathon were VERY easy and finished so fast.
      Good Luck!
      Tommi

      • I am also going to wait too. I finished all the other ones which I was surprised they were easy to do. Will just wait to see what Pogo is going to do.

  14. I have been playing level 5 in Bejeweled Stars since 7 am on level 52 and cannot win a single star. I have 3 stars for 1-51 and I am unable to go back and get more stars. I sure hope pogo will allow us to go back and replay games over again. Otherwise I do not think I will get this marathon done. I am so glad pogo is aware of this problem.

    • Have you tried using the power ups that you can purchase with the coins you earn from playing? If you are low on coins just play a lower level to earn some more.

      Suz

      • Yes, I have used some power ups a couple of times and haven’t even gotten close and not sure which ones would be best. I haven’t tried it for awhile but will have to. I just don’t really know what to do with those spaces where you can move a gem into to ‘save’ them. I hate all the levels with stones, they’re hard enough but this one has gotten to me. I’ll just have to try harder to figure it out. I’ve been stumped completely by some levels in JA on occasion but I’ve always gotten them in the end.

        I’ve done 2 of the badges and have activated 3 more. I’ll just keep going and also go back to 128 to keep trying at it. I do have over 10,000 coins so I’m good there.

  15. Badge 5 for level stars I have completed all levels so I am unable to get any level stars until you add more levels. How can I get the badge?

    • Backup to earlier levels, by clicking on the arrow at the left. However #5 doesn’t seem to be working.

  16. I am stuck on level 132, can’t go further since I cannot get 1 star, I already used too many powerups and need to start over to get more coins. I don’t think this is fair for us to play new levels for badge #5, collect 30 stars, we should be able to play the earlier levels. Looks like I will pass on this last badge #5. Good luck to all that are finishing it.

    • I completed all but #5. It is not working. I did go all the way back to the beginning, It was easy.

  17. I have read a rumor earlier that Pogo was going to remedy the situation. But gave no hint as to how.

  18. I have completed all but one already. The level stars one doesn’t seem to be working. #5

  19. I completed all levels a couple weeks ago but not all with 3 stars and just yesterday I was working on earning 3 stars on “as many levels as fast as I could to get this game done with before new levels arrive” and suddenly I thought “what if Pogo ask us to earn stars for a badge and we have already earned all the stars available” and today we get “the” badge!!! I swear I must be a psychic!!! lol
    And knowing Pogo and how “tiny unimportant details” (for them) like this one not always cross their minds I stopped playing “just in case” thinking about saving for badges what few levels w/o 3 stars I had left.
    I’ll say it again, I must be a psychic !

    Although is a good thing Pogo is already looking into the matter and hopefully they will fix it before the marathon ends I’m glad I still have “unearned stars”

  20. Yes I found out that you can’t redo levels For the 30 stars sure wish I knew that ahead of time because I saved it the second to the last and I would’ve done it earlier. I had a really hard time with the butterflies I had to buy some power ups I’m not far enough in it that I can use coins but I managed to get all 10 done today along with the very long mah-jongg safari gift badge and my two personals now I get to start on the Jetset and I think that’ll take a really long time for me

  21. To move through these challenges, I use Level 2. I move the white stone over to clear out the bottom 3 vertical white stones in the center stack. This will always give you two hypercubes. Swap these and all the stones clear out. This usually ends the level in 2 moves!!!

  22. I completed the badge but used the hammer to clear last 3 , u can buy it for 50 coins gl

  23. Hi All,
    I just looked at the marathon page, Level 5 and it states “win 30 games in 2 weeks” so I guess they did change it! Instead of star levels
    GL

    • Yes, they changed the requirements for the badge. I just got the info from a friend of mine.

      Suz

      • Thanks to Pogo for fixing this badge requirements. I noticed that BadgeHungry posted that the badge had changed and I was able to get that darn #5 badge. Thanks also for BadgeHungry for letting us know!!

  24. here is the update for lap 4 and 5 from Pogo Llama
    Fast Like Felis Lap 4 Badge
    Prior requirements: Win 25 games with more than 5 moves left in 3 weeks!
    The new requirements are: Win 25 games with more than 4 moves left in 3 weeks!

    Fast Like Felis Lap 8 Badge
    Prior requirements: Win 15 games with more than 8 moves left in 3 weeks!
    The new requirements are: Win 15 games with more than 7 moves left in 3 weeks!

  25. I don’t understand why they changed Badge #8 too. There was no problem that I was aware of.

    The new requirement is win 15 games with more than 7 moves left in 3 weeks. Originally you had to have 8 moves left.

    Suz

  26. I want to thank the great people on this site for alerting Pogo on #5 problem. At least we can all complete the challenge now. WTG BH community!

    Cher 🙂

  27. I would just like to pass along a really good level for butterflies and crystals. Level 20 is easy and has both and the crystals are accessible I have never lost a game with that level. Good luck.

    Have fun, everyone!! 🙂

  28. Since they changed the requirement from 30 Stars to 30 games I was able to complete the marathon so thanks to all that helped to get this problem settled.

  29. Thanks to all the Badge Hungry folks who alerted Pogo to the issue with Level 5. Now that it has been corrected, it was easy to complete the challenge.

  30. Is anyone else having problems seeing all 10 badges in Classic Pogo? I went to Badges, Mix & Match and I can only see 1 badge when I know there are 10 total. I finished most of them but I would like to see what I haven’t finished using Classic. I can see what I finished using Access but I wonder why I can’t see those badges under Classic?? Has Pogo changed this feature?

    Thanks!

    • Once I had them all in my M&M Album I was able to see all of them using Find a Badge tab. I just used the drop down menus for Bejeweled Stars and M&M.

      Suz

      • I used to see them all in my M&M album by using find a badge tab. I used the drop down menu until I saw BS and M&M but I wasn’t able to see all the badges. Maybe it’s a glitch on my computer, I don’t know.

        Thanks!

    • DeeVermont, I activated each of them one at a time from the Marathon page overriding each as they came up. I then picked what looked like the easiest one and activated that one (again overriding). Now you will be able to see them all in the album and when selecting a certain game in Classic Pogo badge selection. At this point you can easily multi-activate.

  31. I also want to thank all the wonderful BadgeHungry people who told us about the problem with Level #5. I waited to do that level, and now I can finish it with no problem! Thank you, Lura, for always keeping on top of the issues with some of the badges and games, and thank you to Pogo for changing the requirements for Badge #5! Now we can all finish the marathon and get the completion badge!

  32. I didn’t think i would like this marathon but i have really enjoyed it. Thank you! I have two more to do and I’m done.

  33. FYI, Lap 5 still has a glitch. I’m getting credit for 3 for each time I play level 2.

    sirrono1957

    • I got that tooo.
      I wonder if it was because I started Lap #5 (to test/see if it was new levels we needed) the day before the change, so I had 9 stars when the change happened.

    • I went back and played level 36 and you just ignore the middle piece. By trying to put 4 gems or more together you create fire gems or cubes which automatically moves the jewel in the center down. Just play this level like you would like any other level that has stones. Good luck!
