hi, im new to this site and just joined pogo in feb. i think lol. I am just in it for badges and tokens. I would love to build my tokens up especially now that minis are out. which autos should i run and how long at a time and what speed so that I dont' get caught? thanks for your help.
Hi K, welcome to the forum. Thanks for stopping by to chat with us. Just follow my advice and your Mini will be wearing DKNY in no time. Have fun!
All that and more, on Barbara's new show, "Pimp my Mini" Wednesdays on PogoTV.
My Mini is shy! I don't make fun of your mini.
Mine is shy too, and I wasn't making fun, lol.
My mini is wearing a hockey shirt on a beach, lol.
Stick with Barb's advice, and you'll be buying your mini a Gucci purse just to dump those tokens away!
My Mini can beat up your Mini.
And since you started it, Mister Avs Roy, my Mini never has yellow waxy build up on anything, including her kitchen floor, she is hardly ever picked last for the volleyball team, and she just saved a bundle on her car insurance.
Where's the "Buff" mini option?
I haven't seen it yet.
Mine looks like some sort of geek stuck out in the desert.
Wait a minute... I am a geek stuck out in the desert.. Dang it!
Oh yeah, well my mini's dad can beat up your mini's dad.
Mine just went downtown and bought me $300 in hockey stuff. And my mini actually takes showers.
Lol, my Dad is 6' 9". My Mini's Dad is 7". My Mini is the one who told that "tub of goo" Jarod to hoof it to Subway. She had a perfect score on her SATs and she got that last dentist to cave, and now everyone is chewing Trident gum.
lol. Oh yeah? My mini is the one who had the guts to go and punch the Verizon "Can you hear me now?" guy. He also can stand on one foot, juggle, and whistle Dixie while eating crackers.
kjackson, to actually answer your question, you caould run the turbo 21, poppit, or word whomp autos, those are the highest token getters. There is a great debate on how long to run them, but I would say no more than 30 minutes in the same room, and set them a bit higher than the middle speed. You could also use room rover, which will change rooms for you. All of these and more are on badgehelp.com.
Oh yeah, my Mini does the NY Times Sunday crossword puzzle, in ink, and has overcome a serious case of sinusitis that makes her awaken with her breathing sounding like Mariah Carey, caught in a bear trap, without the aid of antibiotics. She can make a trip from NY to Hawaii, sipping from one $4.00 bottle of Sutter Home Chardonnay and never once ask for a second bottle. My Mini is a lady. Respect her Avs, just show her some respect.
Respect? Mine does the NY crossword puzzle, in ink, without looking up the answers. Um, and he's blindfolded.
Mine invented Post-it-notes.
Mine invented zippers and vel-cro.
Mine never has to look at the back of the box of Jell-O for the recipe (add one cup hot, add one cup cold) Hers is the first bunt cake out the door at the bake sale and she never mumbles the lyrics to Queen's Bohemian Rhapsody because she knows they are saying:
But I'm just a poor boy and nobody loves me
He's just a poor boy from a poor family
Spare him his life from this monstrosity
Easy come easy go - will you let me go
Bismillah! No - we will not let you go - let him go
Bismillah! We will not let you go - let him go
Bismillah! We will not let you go - let me go
Will not let you go - let me go (never)
Never let you go - let me go
Never let me go - ooo
No, no, no, no, no, no, no -
Oh mama mia, mama mia, mama mia let me go
Beelzebub has a devil put aside for me
for me
for me

lol. Well, I don't think I can top that one.
Mine doesn't wait for the firemen to save the day, he always saves the poor woman's 9 cats from the fire.
My mini has seen Bohemian Rhapsody performed live.
With Freddy shooting off the stage like a bottle rocket..
So you think you can stone me and spit in my eye-
So you think you can love me and leave me to die-
Oh baby-can't do this to me baby-
Just gotta get out-just gotta get right outta here-
Mine can save a puck, flying into the stands and not spill her $6.50 cent beer and not drop her $14.00 goalie mask, full of nachos. Oh, and while you are saving those cats, I am having them spayed and neutred at the bottom of the ladder.
Mine is the one down there on the ice scoring the hat trick.
ur mini must be the only hockey player who didn't strike

I thought of you today when I was cleaning my CDs and putting them back into the racks. I sprayed the Rolling Stone's disc case with Windex and flipped it over to see "Give Me Shelter" and imagined the experience of hearing that in a concert venue. I would imagine that the opening bars of that song would electrify the crowd to a frenzy.

He is in the minors right now, temporarily. He will be back with the Avs to kick the Flyer's butts shortly.
go easy on the hawks ;D

Um Hello! You can spit, you can swear, you can forget to tip your waitress at the Comedy Cabaret, despite the reminder of the last comedian, but you cannot speak of the hockey strike. Now you have upset my Mini. :)
the word "Stri**" can never be said in here again. ;D
they're just resting they'll be back O0

Hockey is life. I would chew off my own wounded limb to avoid missing a second of a hockey game. My sweaty gladiators will be back in October, Mister Roy, and I am planning to win a whole lot of dead presidents off you. GO FLYERS!

Mine had a natural hat trick.
I saw the Stones play that in Memphis about 11 year ago.. I think I broke my seat from jumping up and down on it.
But Pink Floyd will be reuniting (with Roger Waters) on Saturday for Live 8.
I guess that MTV and VH1 will be the venues..
You should have be in Philly when Elton John was in concert. The opening bars of "Philadelphia Freedom" started and the stadium started vibrating so badly that I actually started eyeballing the exit routes.
Homer may have to break off another hijacked thread...
My favorite concert was seeing Tom Petty at the Orpheum on Beal Street in Memphis.
The stage was lava lights, candles and persian rugs. No stage lighting.
Tom played all his faves. It was a 3000 seat theatre.
The guy next to us pulled out his binoculars. I looked at at him and asked him "So are you checking if his fly is open?". My wife cracked up, and dude left..
CAUSE WHEN A PLAYER SCORES THREE GOALS IN A GAME THE FANS THROW HATS ON THE ICE OR IN DETROIT SQUID

Well we'll see about that. My mini scored the overtime game 7 goal to win the Stanley Cup...Again!
Sorry that it took me so long to get back to you Avs, I was counting for my Mini as she did one armed push ups. Dang that took an entire hour.
Max, the "hat trick" reference is related to a magician, pulling a rabbit out of their hat.
Golden Sombrero? :o Never mind....I don't think I want to know. LOL
Sorry.....my minds always in the gutter and damn it's fun down there! LOL :-[ :P

I knew I'd getcha...the "Hat Trick" has nothing to do with a magician at all...it has to do with a juggler catching 3 juggled balls in his hat after juggling them for awhile, hence the need for 3 goals to perform a "Hat Trick". Don't even ask what a "Golden Sombrero" is ;)
Trivia 'R Us...
You got squat Badge Hog!
As with many sports traditions, the true origins of the hat trick are a mystery. A likely explanation is that fans celebrating a three-goal performance were literally interpreting the phrase, "I take my hat off to him." But my favourite theory is that hockey borrowed the hat trick from cricket. Sometime in the 19th century, a bowler for an English team took three wickets with consecutive balls - a rare and remarkable "trick" - and was awarded a new hat by the team in honour of the accomplishment.
Ask Jeeves
And as for the "golden sombrero" my sister Nancy asks that you drop the whole subject.

My mini just ran a 3 minute mile, then came back and cooked me the best lunch I've ever had. BAM!

My Mini had to skip lunch because she was organizing a surprise party for your Mini. It's for the best because the other Minis need to learn that they should like your Mini, despite well, you know, "the thing"
Quote from: BadgeHelpBob on June 30, 2005, 03:58:00 PM
While your mini was cooking lunch, my mini ate 50% of the wood out of the support beams under your house.
Thanks for that, lol. Is your mini a termite?
"The thing"? help me out Bob.
Quote from: BadgeHelpBob on June 30, 2005, 08:23:48 PM
No! My mini is a powderpost beetle grub, silly!
I knew that!

I guess I am one of the unlucky ones, because I have never seen it yet. It has been posted that some people have seen it though. Maybe one day I will see it to......wishful thinking.......HAHAHA

Hope everything is going ok in Iraq. I just got back from there from 13 months. I'll tell you what I never want to go back. 4 times is enough.

I also hope you are doing ok in Iraq Roguecook. And I know what you mean rangerboy, my father has been in Baghdad 3 times and is still there now. My family is praying that he will return home safe and not have to go back there ever again. THANKS to all the men and women who have fought for our country and may the Lord be with them.
My hubby has been gone for four months so far. He is in Bagram, Afgan. This is his third time since the war started...We hope he will be back by Christmas....

Holly, I will add your hubby to my prayer list and pray for his safe return. Seems like my prayer list is getting longer and longer each day, but I will never stop until everyone is home safe and sound.
