Ummmm I think that's the same or even a little cheaper for new members than pogo is unless your getting the AOL discount
For exsiting members it's 29.99 a year not sure the monthly price. For new members, because of a rate increase on Feb 7, it's now 34.99 a year or 5.99 a month
i pay 19.99 a year for my pogo ;D
slingdot sounds like a bad disease

30 bucks a year for sling dog? OUCH thats a little steep for a sucky site....

ditto on that i tried it and no way
I checked it out too. Got stuck in WAR. Jeez, gotta a word for the creator's of this site - putz! :D
I think I will just stick with Pogo :D
slingdot seems to be back by THQ... Im shocked that THQ didnt put more money into the site to make it look better.... Sadly every game is a pogo clone
even their new games are pogo clones.... tri peaks just got cloned
Im tempted to join and i will probally join at the end of this week for a month for 4.99
next game is checkers
before they said 4-5 new games per month but now its 2 games per month....
I probally join for 1 month and see how it goes before popping down 30
THQ eh? Makers of wrestling video games. Anyone see a trend here?
just alil trend lol
I was at Wal-Mart today and they had Slingdot games for sale!!! some pretty sucky games if you ask me.....couldn't they be a little bit less like pogo, get your own ideas sheesh!!!
Well - I have to write a "formal" apology about slingdot.com now. I just won $10. Never won crap in Pogo and 3 days in a sling and actually won something!!! Great game to play when Pogo is down! LOL O0
funny thing everyone is complaining about the challenges being too hard... so they are going to start to tone them down to make them a lot eaiser :))

as if pogo is all about originality?
Original Game ------------------------------------- Pogo Version
Mine Sweeper Stellar Sweeper
Memory Wonderland Memories
Bubble Trouble Phlinx
Bubble Trouble Multiplayer battle phlinx
Yahtzee Dice Derby
Scrabble QWERTY
See the trend here? They do have a few original ones..they actually came up with but mostly just ripoffs too...just well done rips.
pogo all the way from my point of games
I posted a little while back that I won $10 from slingdot.com - well today I got the check. Woohoo! May frame it considering I never win anything! LOL spg.gif

WTG. I won wallpaper from Pogo... printed it out, blew it up, had to transfered to real wallpaper and now the north east side of my office is all Pogo'd up! (joking but what if I wasn't..... scary!)
speaking of our pogo clone I won $10 bucks off em today. How long did it take to get your check? ;D I'm so happy when I get it I'm going to use it to buy an auto of pogo cheats.
from what i have heard slingdot gets your prizes out within a week, on the other hand pogo takes at least 2 months to send you a 5 dollar check, go figure
okay cool I guess in about a week I'll be buying myself a new auto :)
i joined slingdot. i like being in on the ground floor of a new site. i won 25.00 on the 3rd day there. i get my pogo badges done then do their stamps. keeps me from being bored.

It took in all about a week - not too bad at all. Gonna use mine towards a membership to slingdot.
WTG to both of ya!
ty pogohatesme, I think it is good to have slingdot as a back up for my pogo addiction - when I get burned out on the pogo games I head over to slingdot and vise versa. A little competition never hurt anyone. ;)
wtg to the winners O0
thanks mama! :D sp.gf
yqw south spg.gif
wtg on winning your 10 bucks and most of all....recieving it...lol
Thank you Tara! I still sing to my husband that "I won $10" - I think he may be ready to choke me now. But he always told me that it would be impossible to win anything! LOL
I think slingdot is a lot like pogo but slingdot does have less games. does slingdot come out with new games as fast as pogo does?
Guess they won't be a complete clone until they have offline games... Oh wait, they do! I couldn't believe it when I saw "SlingDot Unplugged" games on the rack. There was "Pop Pop Pop!" (a Bubble Bobble/Phlinx clone) and "Slippery Words" (a word/puzzle combo game). And yes, you too can earn dots while playing 'em lol.
I wonder how long til they start offering avatars and premium stamp albums :))
I have been there i play pop pop pop and i heard that slingdot just came out in december if that is true it still very young how old is pogo i think it will get better with time lol

The point is .......I don't even think they have an original game....all are pogo rip-offs with different names

lmao homer. :))

I know I'll look more stupid than normal for asking....but what's an S&H Green Stamp?
S&H Green Stamps were a form of trading stamps popular in the United States between the 1930s and 1970s. They were a rewards program operated by The Sperry and Hutchinson Company (S and H). During the 1960s, the rewards catalog printed by the company was the largest publication in the United States and the company issued three times as many stamps as the Post Office.
what about blue chip stamps homer saved those for years had alot of great stuff you could get with them :)
Thanks for the info Homer! Learn more every day!
