Mr. Bill:

I have all my autos in a separate folder on my desktop labeled "Pogo"....are you referring to the extra data file that shows up after I've used this auto?  I usually delete those as well.

I've been trying to find rooms with no one in it but it's getting difficult.  Went into a room this evening with only one other person and they seemed to be on auto as well.

Will just have to take my chances.  :))  Thanks.

Mrs B,
Yes, those are the files I'm talking about.  I don't know if deleting them actually makes the program run smoother, but that's what appears to be happening.  I'm up to level 33 now.  Figure I'll finish it by Christmas. LOL

I worried about it until the first badge, a little less after the second badge, now not at all.  The only thing I do now is make sure I've taken care of my weekly challenges, then I just turn it on and walk away.  That way, if I get a 72 hour suspension, I don't miss my new badges:)

I normally hit the 40 or 50s boards and look for rooms that are empty.  If none are, I jump into one that has one person.  Sometimes that person will leave, sometimes not.  If you see their name popping up alot, it usually means it is safe.  I will usually hit the new game button 4 or 5 times, just to keep me off 100 percent, then just go for it.  I have to tell you that above level 30 it is crawling very slowly so I don't have the time to be careful.  I can't imagine how slow the going will be above 40.

I don't know that the level matters, but I play on hard.  The other thing I do is delete the file that the auto generates every once in a while.  I'm not sure what it is for, but it seems to speed up the auto by doing that (or maybe it was just a cowinky dink)  ;D

Maybe I should play on easy instead of the hardest level....I get high scores every time and that's when my name shows up.  I see others who regularly show up at the bottom of the screen and I figure they're  using autos as well.  But with my luck I'd be the one getting caught.

I kept trying to go into a room alone this evening but someone always showed up.

I quit worring about my name showing up.  For some reason I never get really high scores in there.  Mine seem to be around 150 or so.  I have seen others with 400+.  I don't know how they are getting ones that high. 
So I figure if mine isn't that high, why should anyone pay any attention to me?
