hi i was wondering whats the best way to go up in rank in pinochle?
have a friend help you aredouble browse it
i meant so i dont have to play
oh sry let the auto do it dont know anytips on it just let the auto run with it
the auto will not help you,, because u will never find a partner willing to help you that way, and no other player in pogo will hook up with you cuase the auto sux for ratings, the only way to do it is double browse with someone,i have moved up in rating from 1354 to 1727, with help , but i want more time, but my partner is not on as much? i was trying to get a people network from people here to try an do this , but no one seems willing to, takes to much time i guess ,lol , but this is the fastest way to do it. if ya have that much time to get , ( i think) the hardest badges to get,, (besides bingo) this is the only way, then once someone got there master rating , just play a game with someone trying to get there's an help em out , but i guess thats to much to do or ask for to , :-\ :-\ :-\ , if your looking for some help to do this an help me , i would be glad to dump off my rating points to you,,, u ready to play ,,,, yahoo ID is tjr635 lets get er done,,, oh an double browsers only please , an i keep up with the pogo links for free passes , just make a new ID to have a 1500 point rating , i'll get u that if you relpy,,, HAGD all
I haven't started on my pinocle yet. I'll be glad to double browse with someone so we can both get it done. PM me and we can set up a time. I'll be away after Friday 1/13/06 till Wednesday.
im not wanting rating im after the ranks in there and the auto does do a good job just long games
I like pinochle so it wasn't hard for me to sit for endless hours to get the ranks and the badges. As for the rating, a friend and I did the double browser thing and she got the 3rd rating, I got the 2nd. We decided to take a break for a while. I'm ready to continue on though so if anyone wants to join up with me, let me know.
thats one game i can never get the auto to work right on it just sits there and does nothing, same thing with word whomp
I'm using smart explorer and I'm finding the game a little tough...I've read the how to play and looked at the tutorial and just when I think I understand the game the accounts I'm using as my opposition still got the intermediate badges before I did :D lol
I use the auto to get the badges I need for Pinochle. It works fine for me and it does go up in rank also. I have played the game by hand and I have read all the rules about the game also, but it seems if I play it by hand or use the auto I get the badges in the same amount of time. Good Luck to everyone on getting these badges.

Since I've been playing this game for over 30 years and love playing it, if you need help in learning the game, PM me and we'll get together sometime and I'll help you with the basics.
It took me a little while to learn pinochle, but once you get the hang of it...it's actually quite fun. This is one of the few card games I don't mind playing.
The Pinocle helper works real good on getting the badges. I don"t think I will be getting the other ones
(rated). My aunt tried to teach me this game back somethime ago. I suck then and I stiill suck. I don't too well in hearts either lol. I like spades.
Helen, just out of curiousity, is the game in real life very similar to Pogo's version. I never played it before it came out on Pogo and learned the Pogo version quickly, but that's the only place I've ever played it.
I'm also wondering the same thing about Canasta. I guess the Red 3s are Pogo's way of having something to advance your ranks.
I taught myself how to play pinochle "online" I started playing with the bots and after a few games I knew what to do LOL If I had to play in real life I don't think I could ::)
lol me either cause i cant be 3 other people in real life :o :D

Sorry that I am not on as much when you are anymore. I keep weird hours, but am always willing to help you if we can get together again. You went a long way....Glad I could help but wish I could help more. When I got my M I gave up on it a bit. :-\

There are a couple of variations in Pinochle, depending on how long ago you learned the game and who you are playing with, just as in other games. The variation here is the one I've played for years. As for Canasta, the red 3's are worth extra points, just as on here.
Thanks Helen. I was wondering that.

Hi All! I'm on vacation. Just got on to see what was going on. I got the IM. We'll set up a time as soon as I get back to play. I'm having withdrawels bad right now. Only have dial up here and disconnects everytime a call comes in. No way to play Pogo :'( ... so yall play an extra game or 2 for me ;)
bad thing about playing with bots and then real people.... when your bot makes a stupid bid your cussing at the computer... when with real people you might let those cuss words slip and get punched in the mouth LOL

what is a vacation lol i know how dail up was for 6 yrs but now have wireless would never go back no matter what the cost is
Once upon a time I had dial up. My puter kept crashing and I kept curseing. The pages loaded slow and I grew impaitent. Then one day hubby said I'm getting dsl and theres nothing you can do about it. He called the phone company, a nice man came out, my dog licked him senseless and we got dsl. Now the pages load fast, pogo runs smoother and no more curseing and crashing. I will never go back to dial up again. The end. ::)
I have cable. DSL isn't available where I live. :-[ No story about it. I wanted it, and I got it. Can you say spoiled brat? ;)

We originally had cable, because we didn't have DSL in our area then....Now i prefer my DSL to the cable service.......cable service was always going out during storms and stuff.....but still, anything better than dial-up
well where i live at they dont have cable for me in the area so 1 day was driving down the hwy and bam there was a sign saying wireless co i call they came out and i have never look back lol 8)
I would look for a picture of a lady pulling her hair out but by the time I could get it to load my vacation would be over ... so everyone will have to use their imaginations ... LOL
I've had dsl for a while and had forgotten how annoying dial up was ... think I figured out what I'm getting my parents for their birthdays, christmas, anniversary, etc. ;)
I remember when the the new hubby only wanted dail-up and I was only used to cable.. So I went ahead called the cable company and had it hooked up to my computer and left him stay on dail-up...lol needless to say he was never at his machine and converted to cable and has never looked back either.
After having DSL for so long I could never go back to AOHell dial-up >:( ;D
I will never go back don't have enough hrs. in my day for the waiting.....lol

I have DSL through bellsouth, and it runs great (compared to AOL). I still log into AOL, but after an hour or 2 i get booted. Don't even get me started on AOL dial up. That was the worst experience of online drama I ever experienced. Two words...never again.
I always have alot of problems on aol also Madonna exspecially with the games not loading and pages not comming up Grrrrr. And the more they update aol seems the more problems come up.
What is the worst...you're in the middle of something, and they need to update their spyware protection. This happens quite often, at least once per week (but here lately, every other day :o). Then, AOL freezes where you can't close it, except by the ctrl=alt=del method. Persoonally I'm sick of it. And it seems to always happen when I'm on pogo.
OMG don't even get me started on aol freezing up and the ctrl alt + del button... LOL now I get aol install everyday while I am on and if I am on a few hrs it comes up at least 2 times
i downloaded that aol OMG what a frigging nightmare took for ever to get it off i would call they give me more minutes after 30 call i had to scare them with the call i said no more i hated it finally went with another system i had it just for 2 month but i started the calls after having it 2 weeks got the other server on the 4th week i mean it took 2 months for them to get it out and not to bill me i didnt even use the minutes i just stop useing it
Only reason I still have it, is my kids have friends on there. and seems thats what they like right now.....lol
I've been on AOL since 1996, no complaints. I used dial-up from 96-99, then an EDU T1 connection from 99-2004. I've had Comcast HSI for about a year, also great. I've stayed logged into AOL for up to 6 days before, no drops. Am I the only AOL supporter? lol
Blu, I think you are the only supporter...lmao. It seems like the rest of us have had the worst luck with them. The only reason I'm still on is my husband insists I stay. Anything to inconvenience me. :-\

I'm with you on this one I have SBC DSL and still have my AOL account. I have never had any problems out of there service. When it updates I never know anything about it and I'm sure it does. Must be something in my settings that allow for auto updates. You might want to check your settings out.
We AOL supporters have to stand together. ;) Both of us! LMAO 8)
I'm back from my trip... :o
I'm double browsing .... ready all the latest here... checking email
