I'm sorry, this just struck me as funny so I had to point it out.

QuoteI don't think they will do that, it's not that hard to do.  Gonna play a few and lose first though so it looks natural.....

It's not that hard to do, but you're autoing it?  Hehe.  ;) It's hard as h$%l for me.  tried it a lot lately, all to no avail.  And I don't own ThunderPopper, and my trial is expired so I'm left to my own devices this time.

I doubt that pogo has the resources to audit EVERY account that gets this badge.  It's just too easy to get normally.  They could check accounts that got the badge in one attempt or in less than a minute.

Keep in mind that booting all auto players would result in a pretty substantial reduction in revenue to EA.  Remember, we all PAY to play on Pogo.  EA revenues have slipped a little as of late.  They're not going to eliminate a revenue source that frankly, does not pose a financial risk to them.  I imagine that they will continue to check on prize winners and egregious examples of auto use(hours and days at a time), and pretty much leave the rest of us alone.

Having said that I'm not going to tempt fate.  I'll just get this badge manually.

I wouldn't think it would matter how long it takes to get the zero balloon special edition badge , if it is
a ploy by pogo to catch auto users they will just audit every member who gets it so it wouldn't matter
if you got it first game or not or by not using an auto, any auto used on any past game can be detected/suspected,
they aren't going to just check how you won that badge. I only use the autos on non club pogo accounts
and not on my club membership but may use the auto just for this badge, once i get it i will go back to playing myself
so it will not be suspected.

Ahhhhhh greed!

Greed is HEALTHY!!! Without it the human race would have died out long ago. Greed is what allows us to change/control our environment to outperform all other species on the planet. There is not a single thing that a human can do that another animal on this planet can do better than we can. IE: Hawk can see for miles. Most animals are pound for pound stronger and faster than we are. Tool use? Look at a monkey at a termite mound with a twig. I'd like to see you try it. Otters use tools also. they use rocks to open clam shells. Dogs sense of smell. Touch? Snakes can detect the footsteps of a mouse. Hearing? We all know a lot of animals with better hearing. Taste? Snakes again TASTE air to locate prey. So GREED is what makes humans better than all others in the animal kingdom. Who else but man hoards more resources for no immediate benefit? Forget the squirrel hoarding nuts. He's not hoarding he lose most of what he hoards because the squirrel forgets where most of the nuts he hoarded are. :)

Just my little rant on humans. I apologize.  O0

i agree........  i will lose, then almost pop them all, then lose more, then start auto and monitor it, then when it is about to be done, finish game by myself.......  hee hee    ;)     

why get caught for one badge when we can cheat smart and have all the badges we want from autos.....  woo hoo.... 

love me them autos.....   :P

 O0   Same thought came to my mind.  I honestly think it's a ploy.  I'm going for it legitimately only.  I've only cleared the board a few times in many many games played....so I'd look like an idiot getting it right away.
