Did you pick any of these badges up today? Share your thoughts in a comment below.
Dusty says
Not a bad selection. But as before many of same games, but only 1 repeat of the 15. Then again I went back and looked at all the games and only a few which they don;t use often, like pogo bowl(which i’m glad) etc. Plus a big plus for me NO Quinn’s or now NO Garden Blast (which I would not have bought). Probably won’t even try next weeks Garden Blast weekly. Good Luck everyone.
QuietDi says
Even for Diamond badges, the challenge requirements seem a bit high. Initial feeling is blah, and I was so looking forward to the release of the Diamond badges.
RyzandShyn says
QuietDi – I agree completely. This was the first thing I wanted to look at when I signed in today, and I’m disappointed. I’m not sure I want to play many of these over and over as the criteria requires.

My first thought was “They’ve got to be kidding with some of these requirements.” As much as I love Tri-Peaks I’m doing a badge right now for using “only” 10 wild cards, not 40. And true to form I started out with having a wild card, used it, got another one right away and then have been through all chests 3 times without getting another. Thinking I’m not trying for 40.
Also just completed Canasta 50 red threes. While not as bad as I had anticipated I really don’t like these “random requirement” type badges even in my favorite games. No skill needed, just luck, and Pogo seems to let you run out of that while doing these, *weak lol*.
Some aren’t too bad, WCS, WW and Safari, but I’ll have to think about some of the others.

I am also doing 10 wild cards in Tri-Peak and after so many games I just got my second one. There is no way I would even try for 40 even as much as I like that game I would be here until Christmas trying for that…….lol
RyzandShyn says
shelnick and Cindy – The memory of working on the 10 Wild Card badge is what caused me to point and laugh at the 40 Wild Card badge and leave it on the shelf…lol
shelnick9293 says
I only have seen two that I might get and that is only a maybe. The rest are just the same ones used over and over that are in every event and every marathon only now with higher requirements. I could care less about seeing another solitaire game of any kind. It’s like they are scraping the bottom of the barrel for these badges.
Cindy4764 says
BTW, there’s a badge on sale for Canasta for 180 red threes. Anyone interested? 😂
Cindy4764 says
Oops, this was supposed to be a response to RyzandShyn above but shelnick is also involved in this conversation of the phenomenon of too high requirements for some of these badges so it’s OK, lol.
shelnick9293 says
I like Canasta but 180 red threes? 😂😂😂😂
RyzandShyn says
Pointing and laughing again 🙂 Record a Nay vote from me.
Patti says
First Class Solitaire 60 foundations stacks gosh I’m lucky to win one. lol I like tri peaks but for 40 wilds no thanks. I can imagine seeing a lot of sales gone on this line up because of the requirements. This on was a disappointment.
MomsBassetHound says
But the group of us that buy it all don’t even look before we buy them. There are still a bunch of us, not as many as in olden days, but still a fairly large group.
