I noticed that it is listed on the pogo test site page. scroll down until you see WW & you will see where it has NEW next to it. Hopefully it will be out real soon.
with pogo, you never know. it could be this week, next week, next month, etc. it would be nice if it was soon so we can get to hunting for those badges ;D.
pogobeta.com
For those who want to take a peek at the new Word Whomp, POGO has updated "The How to Play" section. It has a picture of the new board and ifo on the game. So who knows, maybe out tomorrow????? One can only hope.

shot of new ww
After the reboot of pogo, I scrolled down and WW is open and playable!!! :D
Yea!!.....been playing since it opened. Gosh...lots of new badges to get. Old auto doesn't work, but you can still use the FreeWhack and get all your words.
I don't know where they got freewhack...lol...the auto is wordzwizard and all you need to ever do to find an auto is click downloads then the badgehelp.com link there and it gives all the games anf you click the game you want auto for and there you go
I've had wordzwizard for a long time...you input the 6 letters and it tells you all the words for those 6 letters and you have to put them in the game so it isn't any worse then using the dictionary...lol
ok since everyone is playing, give me some tips....does it matter what skill level you play on in order to get ranks faster......thanks for the info in advance....

free whack is for word whomp wackdown, not word whomp
Mine's not up yet! :-\ I wonder why? do i have togoto a special site to be able to play it?
Ooopss......I Meant FreeWhomp.
It looks as if the ranks go by how many words you get, not by the level you play on. According to Badge Central you need 10,000 words for the first badge at level 10. I played on level 1 and level 3 and didn't seem to move up more for 3. I think the main difference is that you have the potential for more words on a level 3 game than a level 1 game, but that's if you are good enough at the game to think of all the words! ;)
If I am not mistaken, this game is the same as the old WW. The puzzles should all be the same, no matter what level you play. I THINK the only difference is how much time you are allotted.

when I switch to level 3, the percentage goes up a whole lot faster than it did on level 1 ::)
i played 2 games 1 on level 1 got all the words and went up 2%. Switched to level 3 got all the words again and again only went up 2%.
I have the same results NotQuite. I think it is words spelled and not the level you play on.
it goe sby how many words you get. i got all 17 on one puzzle and went up like 3 percent then solved then next puzzle which have fewer words and only got 2 persent so it doesn't matter what level you play one just how many words you can manage to get. I played on level 3 and was get puzzles with fewer words which is kinda annoying when you need 10,000 lol

LOL I gues you were a week off. j/k
I have got to rank 5 - arrowhead by doing just that - clicking new game till you get a board with loads of words. It's miles quicker than just doing the boards they give you.
Also hello to everyone, this is my 1st time post (but a long-time watcher) ;)

Hello and good job on rank 5
Yes, we are aware that there is a new Word Whomp game now.
Whomper is being updated to work with the new game.
There are several things you can do right now:
1. Wait a day or 2 for the update. Yes, it will be free for registered customers.
2. Use WordzWizard. It is not auto but it will help you solve the puzzles.
Get the non auto version here for now:

Thanks :)
Now am I having a blonde moment :o (very likely IMO) but where is the High Score table on the new Word Whomp? It keeps coming up with the green "Congrats *username* 1102 is one of today's high scores" like it does, but I haven't seen a High Score tab anywhere in the room. Like I say it's either a blonde moment or Pogo forgot to put it in. LOL
I haven't seen one.
No high score board. What I don't like is that it flashes your name constantly. So, I've been playing on level one and getting all but the last word. It keeps my name from flashing. Also, I like Whateva75's idea about hitting new game until you get a puzzle with a lot of words. Only, I enter one word and then hit new game. It keeps my stats from being 100%.
I noticed that it didnt clear your stats out, so i am only at 47% win rate from all the times since 2004 when i first played it. then i just won a whole bunch but didnt clear my stats, so i will never have 100%
and that word finder thingy is amazing lol
burning bright love your pic on here very nice O0
will our old WW work one the new one??? if not when will be the new one out,tks,,, O0
An auto has to be able to read the screen exactly as it is. The game screen has changed, causing the auto to have to be updated. Badgehelp will announce as soon as it is ready.
Until they get an auto out, there is always <a href="http://www.wordplays.com/fcgi-bin/jumble.pl">WordPlays</a> to help you out. REALLY helping me spell all those words and advance 3% at a time. Plus it's not against Pogo's TOS and there is more than enough time to enter those 6 letters and do a search. I'm burning through the ranks and maybe 1½ hours away from getting rank 10 and my badge!
tks for the infor,barb, :)

hmm...maybe they are slowly being cleared?? mine still says since march 2 2004.............anyone else's stats been cleared?
my stats got cleared
No, mine is 54% since 2001. I'm only concerned about the current session. Don't want any snitches to see a high percentage and go browsing through my badges. I'm still trying to hide the badges from the RDSS glitch.
OK>>>>>>>so it dosent matter what level your on....hard or easy...just the words you make?
seems so.

Ooopss......I Meant FreeWhomp.
I have both and stil cant get either of them to work for the New whomp..
which isnt surprising considering I had a Heck of a time getting the Whack to work... although I do have my Golden Carrot.
is there something in particular I am missing... to not be able to get it to work
When is the first theme?? There's no info about ranks or themes in the how to play section of the game...how annoying LOL
and dont you just hate when they give u a stat to reach for a badge...like 10000 words...but then it never even shows you how many words you have? It just annoys me a little, a lot of the pogo games are like that.
If anyone finds about the themes...post it please....thanks!

im at rank three and dont have a theme yet....
oops, maybe i'm wrong. rank 3 or 4. :-[
ooppss.....so sorry......it was a three , i just dint know I had it.....lol
The beach theme is funny. There is a gopher on a surfboard in the ocean. Don't know why but it really made me laugh!
OK? tokens....is anyone actually gettin all of them? i think i'm only gettin about 200 per game instead of the 400 or so it says i should get
ME TOO! I dint even notice until you posted it.......
I sent pogo a question about it.....let's see what they say. Will keep yall posted

I must be going blind. So sorry to all...it's w----wizard. You type in the letters, and it gives you a list of words.
Anyone know what is the rank for the theme after the beach one?
Well, about the tokens....it seems that if you type or click in the words too fast you wont get all the token....ahem..can we see a trend here? Poppit did the same thing after the revamp. If you go very slow...i'd say 3 or more minutes a game then you will get all the tokens.
But, if you type like a bat out of hell, you will zip thru ranks fast but only get about half the tokens.
Pogo has not replied to my question yet, but I am going to follow this through w/ them and see how far it goes, I am not using an auto, only using something to tell me the words to put in.
I'll put their replies here....wish me luck LOL
Thank you!!!

I noticed that on my game I don't get credit for the tokens until I type in the first word on the next game. I type extremely fast (55wpm) and I got all of my tokens, only not until I started the next game. So, speed doesn't appear to affect my game. Is this the same for you?
well i started writing it down, and only watching the tokens in the "whos here"window, if u go really slow you get them all, but then i started goin very fast..im about 50-60 wpm too, and now im gettin most of them..lol this is crazy
The first day of a new game always is! lol
What rank have you guys gotten to so far.....
half way to 1 ;D
Don't ask, lol.
im at 5
Ive been at it all day, and im only at four...i think im doing somthing wrong........lol
I'm at rank 4. This is a long dragged out game. I type 80wpm and I don't get all my tokens. At this point, i'd rather just get thru the ranks, which might take a century....
I'm playing on hard and I'm really good, usually get all the words and it still only advances around 2 percent.

Are you sure that your tokens aren't added when you enter the first word of the next game? That is what's happening with me.
WTg all of you am i about 81% to rank 3 and bored with the game............
pogo is just going to keep re-doing all their games until every game has rank badges and were all sick of playing them
i am thinking the auto will be in use when it comes out. I am finding 95% of the words and it is jsut taking forever to get thru ranks
I honestly can't take anymore games as soon as I think I am getting somewhere there comes another game I finally made rank 9 on battle Phlinx and that game is driving me crazy these games are slow in progression I made rank 8 last night but when I woke this morning I had the cripes message so i reconnected and put on battle phlinx and was back to rank 7 what a waste of a night I was kinda ticked and of course tonight or tomorrow morning they will be shutting down I will have to set the alarm for 5 am so i can reconnect can badgehelp make an auto that when I am not playing a pogo game an alarm will sound and wake me up so I can reconnect when pogo gets back up again lol just kidding :o
or just make an auto to reconnect us back to pogo............lmao
This name flashing business at the bottom is bothersome wish there were private rooms for this game lol
yep, i was thinking the same myself...kinda makes me leary of leaving it on all nite now..thats just begging for a snitch to report me ;D
here is what ive been doing in new word whomp..play on level one find words to u get to the carrot 10 spin..then hit new game it takes up in precentage..2% i think..lol

I do this too. If you find all the words except the last, your name won't flash. Plus, you don't have to wait for the gopher to munch that last turnip.
Many, many thanks for the quick release of this auto. Was wondering though, would it be possible to program it to leave 1 word on each game and click new game so you don't have to wait for the timer to expire ?
Your ranks are determined by how many words you get. I think you need 10,000 anagrams to get to rank 10 and 30,000 to get to rank 20. Don't remember after that but it's in the badge album. So, the percentages are going to be the same if you get 20 words on any skill level.
I have a Question.......I had the old version of whomper.......and of course the newer version came out in a timely manner which was great .....The old version would give me about 40,000 tokens in an hour.......But the newer vision is not working all that great.....On fast speed for the first hour I got 8,120 tokens.....on the medium speed I got 8,900 tokens.......and on the slow speed I got 9,150 tokens.....and now I am getting this message that says........Whomper.exe has encounted a problem and needs to close..We are sorry for the inconvenience.
What is the problem and can I fix it from this end or is it something that needs to be addressed from your end..
Thank you
are you using the beach background? cause i was using it and i have the same problem with whomper it would encounter a problem...so i changed it back to the farm theme and it didnt happen again....
The words I've found so far that aren't automatically put in are:conman, sop, ops, sac and rust. Anyone else have words that I can add to the list? I have no problem with not getting to the rutnip every time - I hate turnips in real life!
I don't know if it's a Pogo issue or something from the Whomper update but I did notice that before I was guetting all the words most of the time and now my auto mostly seats there and wait for that last word(s) about once every 3 game ... Is the any way we can just make it press "New Game" or eventually enter new words into the program as we find them ?
Still works good otherwise ... was just way faster before ;)
Another thing that was also cool with version 1 was that as you would see the words proposed in the right colomn you could pause the auto and enter them at your own pace ... but then again ... Why use an auto if you gotta do all the typing ! lol :P
NB : 'bout the tokies, I agree ... How in the world can you get 40/60,000 per hour ? I do believe that those stats were true ONLY before Pogo blocked the tokies ... Now it's far from that ... Getting bout 12,000 per hour with version 1 and now (as all words don't seem to be found anymore and the timer elapse to 0:00) I'm down to 8/9,000.
Don't think it was meant to be :-\
But it's true that some of those words are not even hard to get :) ... Still harder than to press "New Game" though lol
Thanks for the answer Mr. Bill :D
I have a whomp question & hope I'm putting it in the right place. I got to rank 9 yesterday & I noticed since then I'm only going up only 1% on each game, no matter what level I play. If its a small puzzle, I go up 0%. Before 9, I was going up 2 or 3% each game. So is everyone's this way thats gotton this high? I expected the increase to drop down but not this early in the game. Sure makes it extra hard with a sore arm. I've emptied temp files, etc but it still does it. I can't use whomper on my pc so thats out, dang it. lol. Thanks for any input. :)
the higher you go the more words you need for ranks, so to answer you yes it is normal, pretty much like whackdown i been working on whackdown for a year off and on and i just made grade 6 zuchinni last night........but i will finish it one day lol
Thanks very much for your response, I just didn't think the % would drop down like that this soon in the game. Yes guess this will be a long, drawn out game getting badges like www, I just made rank z13 last night & been playing it off & on ever since it started. ::) Good luck getting your www badge!
I lost my rank's!!! was rank 6 now im back to nothing!!!! But it's o.k. pogo said they were sorry and good luck!
