I just tried this game and it isn't a game that going to be on my high priority list of games to finish.  It is going to take forever to gather those eggs and it's a real pain in the rear to clear the board and then have to wait for the timer to go off.  I did see somewhere that there is a bonus badge for this game, other than the game award badges.  Yeah, like I'll get that.  I think I will wait patiently for the auto.  Good luck to everyone on this game, I'm waiting to congratulate the ones who make it to rank 10 and get that first badge.   ;D
Title: Re: poppazoppa is here
Post by: homelessdog on June 08, 2005, 04:28:58 AM
I need to develop some strategy... I can't seem to even get a jackpot spin!  But I am at rank 3. 

And yeah, it does suck having to wait 30 or 40+ seconds while the timer finishes winding down every round.  But otherwise, I'm enjoying it.  Nice diversion from the other games I'm working on.

WOW THANK YOU POGO AND CAROLINE FOR GIVING ME THIS JOYFUL NEWS I AM GOING TO PLAY IT RIGHT NOW! I am the only person in the poppa zoppa room so I'll get jackpot spins for sure!

when i was playin this morning alone in a room, even though i was #1 i didn't get a jp spin unless i actually got 8500 points. so it's not like lottso where you get a spin even if you didn't reach 3000 points or whatever it is. has anybody else found this to be true?

Go to Pogo and then go to "my favorites" look for Poppazoppa on the list and add it to your favorites.  You can then access it from your Pogo home page.
Title: Re: poppazoppa is here
Post by: caroline196 on June 08, 2005, 07:10:43 AM
my 1st reaction to this game was what a load of rubbish,but now it seems ok,quite easy to work out,hard to get jackpot spin and even if u win u dont get a spin unless u get over 8500 points.u can also get a special badge if u get a chain of 36 together,now that will be tough O0

 Oh, just lovely,

    I just woke up and haven't made it yet to pogo. Glad to hear it's out. Sounds lame lol.
Title: Re: poppazoppa is here
Post by: heavenly on June 08, 2005, 09:21:00 AM
it seems kinda boring at first but if you like puzzles that make you think ahead it's good, cause you have to plan out your next move to make long chains.
i made a 30 chain but that 36 chain badge is going to be loooong off!
Title: Re: poppazoppa is here
Post by: Capt. Morgan on June 08, 2005, 09:27:08 AM
Lame Lame Lame
Does Pogo even read their own stats?
Once again a game I consider geared towards kids,.
Would you like my money now badgehelp??
Title: Re: poppazoppa is here
Post by: Motley on June 08, 2005, 09:45:33 AM
Well, I'm going to go play this game again, my 3-year old thinks it's Reptar from Rugrats so it's her new favorite game.  I knew I should of tried it out when they were sleeping.  At least it gives Harvest Mania and Squelchies a break.
Title: Re: poppazoppa is here
Post by: just-a-cheater on June 08, 2005, 10:01:36 AM
Auto me please..(lol)  will be dreading any challenges regarding this game, hard to stay awake to play.
Title: Re: poppazoppa is here
Post by: Motley on June 08, 2005, 10:12:30 AM
I am never and I mean never going to get that 36 chain badge unless there is some divine intervention (hint...hint...badgehelp).  At best, I got 20.  Oh well, I'll just play a little here and there until my miracle arrives.   >:D  Anyway, there is no pressure for an auto from me, I want quality and I'll wait and get it from the best.  Until then, this badge hog in training needs go snort up her 7th badge since Monday.

Best I can do is 31.  My friend already is showing off his 36 badge.  I hate him....lol. 

I do actually kinda like this game.  I had to take a break because it was taxing my brain.  It's not as mindless as Harvest, so I think I'll be able to play this one a bit.  There actually is some thinking and strategy.  But, I know that 36 badge is never gonna happen without help.  (echoing the hint, hint from Motley.  ;))
Title: Re: poppazoppa is here
Post by: Fluffy756 on June 08, 2005, 10:55:05 AM
I love this game!!!!  I found out use x2 or 3x first or the ones with the chains to power up wait until it power up goes to 5 then hit big section you get more points.... got close to 8500 points but no spin.
I think if we do it in team room we might work... room by yourself is good too... but the pro is no spin.

I smell auto coming out for this game.....

Title: Re: poppazoppa is here
Post by: SaintHiρρo on June 08, 2005, 11:38:17 AM
I'm typically a quiet reader but I must admit, I like this game. Longest chain so far is 34. Not too hard to play. JP spin every time now. Don't think I will be begging for an auto like I did when I first played. It is annoying to have to wait for everyone else to finish but over all, I don't hate it as much as I thought I would!
Title: Re: poppazoppa is here
Post by: burning_bright25 on June 08, 2005, 12:12:13 PM
Well...call me crazy but I love it.  Though, time in between could be shorter.  So far 26 is the highest for me...I'm goin to play til I see dinosaurs in my sleep. 
Good luck all.
On another note.........next weeks challenge might kill me.   EUCHRE??? UGH..still tryin for the '03 one.

Post by: homelessdog on June 08, 2005, 09:55:17 PM
I really like it so far.  I got the hang of it after a few hours when I realized that it's pretty pointless to rush through each stage... You only get 150 maybe 250 points for being the first one done, whereas if you take your time and plan out long chains with big multipliers at the end you can get mucho points and a guaranteed jackpot spin every single game.  I haven't decided yet though if it's better to play competitive, team or by myself. 
Title: Re: poppazoppa is here
Post by: smiles29 on June 08, 2005, 10:50:48 PM
i kinda like this game too.  i have only got a chain of 28 many many times but oh well practice makes perfect. 
w2g to all who have badges already in this game. 
the auto is already out so gl everyone.
and yes the game does require some strategy skills.  i get a jp spin just about everytime i play.  so its not too difficult.
happy badge hunting all.    O0

I STILL cannot get the game to load.  :'( I don't know what's wrong. It just sits there loading, and never does. I have done everything in the Pogo help section that it tells you to do. Anyone have any insight that could help me??

Christina...Have u tried my trick? i just click on the room link again..........if its sitting there and i do that it works, dont close it just click it again.  Or clear your browser cache and object files.
Title: Re: poppazoppa is here
Post by: Barbara on June 09, 2005, 11:45:42 AM
Go to Internet Explorer>tools>internet options>settings>view objects.

See if there is a Pogo folder for this game.  If so, right click and delete it out of there.  Try again to load the game fresh.  This method can also be used if any of your Pogo games are choppy.

Good luck.
Title: Re: poppazoppa is here
Post by: FlippantOne on June 09, 2005, 11:51:04 AM
It usually takes Pogo a couple of days before the new games will actually show up on the home page, and not in the "Preview stage" Shouldn't be too much longer for it to  come up there, however, editing your favorites is just as simple and works too.  :)

I got all 36 (yes all in a row 1 chain) and it didn't give me the badge.  There are days when I just HATE pogo.   >:( :'(
Title: Re: poppazoppa is here

I really really like it...til i get 36 lol then I won't play it.         3 more eggs til rank 10 badge..............and i would kill if i got it and i didn't give it to me. 
Title: Re: poppazoppa is here
Post by: Barbara on June 09, 2005, 02:48:17 PM
Look at your stats and see if it is recorded.  I believe that what you say is true.  If you have it recorded then maybe you can contact Pogo and get the badge added to your album.
Title: Re: poppazoppa is here
Post by: PrincessKate on June 09, 2005, 03:11:27 PM
It didn't record.  Siiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiigh.  Oh well.  I guess if I got it once, I'll get it again.  I will just perservere....lol.

Post by: quiltingbee on June 09, 2005, 03:57:10 PM
Hi all!  I'm new to the forum but just wanted to shout to the world that I got the 36 chain twice!  Too bad I can't get the badge twice!

I did see someone today that said that they got their 36 chain when they joined a game in progress and didn't get credit for it so maybe you have to play the entire game to get it? 
Title: Re: poppazoppa is here
Post by: Barbara on June 09, 2005, 04:11:10 PM
Congratulations!  Do you have any advice on how to achieve this milestone?
Title: Re: poppazoppa is here
Post by: burning_bright25 on June 09, 2005, 04:47:56 PM
I think we need an undo button!  That won't happen, so here's my advice....still no badge.  Save all your chains as long as you can, save the reactor w/ a bunch of buildings around it. Try to jump on ones around eachother, clear most of the board out on one side before jumping around...  And just hope for some good ol' luck!  Like I predicted, got the rank 10 badge before 36.
Title: Re: poppazoppa is here
Post by: quiltingbee on June 09, 2005, 05:04:27 PM
Along with this you should remember that you have 99 seconds, so take your time and think about your next move.  Always pay attention to what is in the next box, that will help you plan ahead.  Try not to get any buildings by themselves (without anything next to them).  Also, I didn't get mine until I noticed that you get the "any" building after you use a chained block.  Not sure if anyone else noticed that but as soon as I did and changed my strategy I had the badge within a few games.  Hope this all helps and good luck!!

Found the game today and I sure like it, (better than aces up) took me to level 5 before I figured out how to get a spin, does any one know what levels for the badges and is there any hidden badges ie chain reactions thanks O0
Title: Re: poppazoppa is here
Post by: Barbara on June 09, 2005, 06:00:40 PM
Badges at levels 10,20,30,40,50 and the chain reaction badge.  Good luck and have fun!

Post by: Fluffy756 on June 09, 2005, 06:01:17 PM
I was wondering do you really need the jackpot spin I know I know one day to my shock I will get it but never will happen. I do believe if people keeps playing not getting the spins they will get all the badges in time. I am at rank 7 so far....

every 10 ranks you will get a badge (https://www.pogocheats.net/proxy/?http://playweb09.pogo.com/images/badges/lg/373.jpg) is the rank 10  and this is the chain of 36 one (https://www.pogocheats.net/proxy/?http://playweb09.pogo.com/images/badges/lg/378.jpg)

Post by: Motley on June 09, 2005, 06:17:27 PM
Congrats on all who who've gotten that 36 badge.   ;D   I just got a 32 chain and that is my closest.  I am giving up for tonight, I'm not even close to rank 10...I've been so darn busy trying to get that chain badge that I've wasted time and lost a few eggs.  Maybe I'll just go for the ranks and once they are done, fiddle with getting the 36 one, unless of course my Knight in Shining Armor comes along and *poofs* it to me.

i get jackpot spins all the time, you just have to make sure to create large chains, once you get the hang of it you'll reach the 8500

i usually get over 8500 on 2 rounds,the game is simple once you know what yr doing.watching the now and next box helps and leaving the reactor till the last helps even more.if u dont know what yr doing watch the tutorial,will help you understand.my best score so far is 18000 O0.now just got to wait till poppazoppa is back up,whenever that may be  ::).12 hours and still down :'(

Poppa Zoppa booted me around 10:00 p.m. last night. Since that time the game is still saying no rooms available. I hope it comes back up soon

I am very happy that Pogo chose to close this game now and fix it, instead of allowing us to get set back in ranks because of a problem.  The game will be up again soon.

Was in Perfect Pair this morning and players claiming that poppazoppa shut down due to cheating.....players asking how you can cheat in there and one person said to go to www.badgehelp.com and they have all these cheating bots there and pogo caught on....just thought it was funny.   :)

From Pogos Help Page....

   Yesterday, we released a much-revered classic game called Poppa Zoppa, and the release did not go as smoothly as we had hoped. Unfortunately, to protect the stability of the entire Pogo.com site last night, the engineering team had to close the game with no warning, and some players may have lost badge or rank progress as a result.

We do apologize for this inconvenience; however, we are not able to provide rank or stats adjustments that resulted from this.

Also, we don't know when the game will be returned to service. However, if you would like to receive updates automatically via email as we update this article, please click the "Email me..." button below..........which i have done so i hope to get an email from them as soon as this is resolved. Will keep all updated

Oh Lordy, if Pogo were to shut down every game there was an auto for, we would have to resort to playing tic-tac-toe on the back of the envelope our electric bill came in.    They've shut down games before for maintenance.  After this coffee surges to my brain, I will think of an example.  You have to admit, the whole Badgehelp conspiracy is funny though.  Can't you just see a team of their geekiest programmers and artists walking out of the employee cafeteria, muttering, "shut it down, damn that BadgehelpJoe."

Lol, a whole bunch of engineering mathletes whipping a pen out of their pocket pencil protectors to fill their applications out with.  Their fingers fumble for their front pocket of their polyester Hagar slacks to retrieve their wallet, stowed there for safety from the people who rode the bus with them.  The crackle of Velcro can be heard as they snort and pull the laminated social security card out of their wallet they picked up at the Star Trek mini convention held at the Casa Kielbasa, near the comic book store. I can see it now BadgeHelp_Eggbert to the rescue.

roflorl.  thats a really good one barb.  i needed that little pick-me-up.
i hope they bring the game back up soon i was already addicted to it and wasn't ready to even think about an auto yet - well atleast not for a cople more ranks yet lol.  i was almost to rank 8 and had a 32 chain and was moving in fast on the 36 chain.  i had to go out of town yesturday for some family business and came home to find the game gone.  i guess i cannot leave no more,  no telling what game they will take away next - lorl.  oh well,  i guess its back to one of the other boring games i need to finish.

yes, tyvm i just noticed that also. I am happy to see that they updated the "system screen" to show poppa having difficulties as well as posting us a message. And i also see they are working very hard in the other site there is about 23 people in the game currently.

i got my 36 chain badge at almost rank 13.  i followed the advice that adric gave and in about 6 rounds i got it.  it takes alot of practice mixed in with a little luck.  good luck all.
Title: Re: poppazoppa is here
Post by: touitsjesse on June 14, 2005, 03:17:49 PM
ok, i been playing with differant ways to play and i have come to this one very sure and exact conclusion...i know everyone says long chains, long chains and than some does just that and they still get angry that they cant get 10,000 like everyone else. Well the key and only key to make a long chain profitable is that you use your reactor wisely. I say thins cause your reactor acts as a "super wild card." i said wild card..remember that ur reactor will always change to the color or the current piece that you need to stomp next, soooo....get as many other stomps as you can without stomping the reactor, than after a good long chain, im talking like 20 + than stomp on the reactor last. BUT there s a downfall....if you make a long chain early, your reactor is not activated, therefore it would only be worth the amount the points next in line of the long chain points....BUT if you reactor is activated and you make just a 26 chain than ur reactor, you can get as much as a minimum of 4000 points. Now out of allllll the recomendations, this is the only one way to get "BIG" points, i promise....gl e1 and happy stomping.

If you're getting 32 - 35 chains, then it's only a matter of time before you get the 36 Badge. 

If you're not getting large chains, then you need to reexamine your playing strategy.

that is very true.  i couldnt get anything higher than 28 for the longest.  once you stop trying to beat the clock pay attention to the now and next spots, and try and save the chain pieces for last if all possible, you will do it.  i did that and started getting 33-35 chains and withing 36 hours i had the 36.  its like 80% strategy and 20% luck. 

so good luck all and happy badge hunting.

Most of the people i have seen with the 36 badge tell me that they got it when they where at or near rank 13 so i'm only at like rank 6 LOL so i probably got a long way to go LOL The longest I got was 31 so maybe it's only a matter of time. I just have to figure out how to get rid of the stragglers  :D

Thank you Hocky. I have also been able to get to rank 30 and get that T shirt badge.
I posted to this thread even though it was older because it had the info on the game I wanted to play. I'm a newbie so I like going back and reading the information from the past rather then asking something that has been discussed. I have done a lot of reading and learn lots I need to know. And hopefully, this way, when I do ask about something, it won't be something that has been answered many times before.
