Will you be one of the " lucky " few who will be receiving the Special Edition badge for racking up 1000 weekly badges???
I hope so! :)
I would bet most everyone here will get it asa long as they do not check for auto use

On both of my accounts.
no bad mood.gif
I will reach that goal also.... cheerleading.gif
Nope. No way I can get 244 badges between now and then, and if I could I wouldn't spend the time and money. The badge is coming out soon but will it be a special one-time only 'oops too bad you missed it' badge or can you get it later when you finally hit 1000?
Been playing since before it was Club Pogo. Have completed every weekly challenge since Club Pogo started. i have as of this week completed 997 weekly challenges. I read somewhere that not many players will get this badge. 2 more weeks and I got it
You betcha! I'm with Harley - the badge will be mine. Good luck to all.
white flag.gif Not understanding ....
When I go to Badges, My Collection .. it tells me that I have 997 Weekly Badges earned. But no matter how many weekly challenges I re-activate and complete, that number doesn't change. Is that because they've already been done at another time .. am I looking in the wrong place, is there something else I'm supposed to be doing ... or what??? Duh!

You only get credit once for doing a badge...you can do the badge again, but it only counts one time. If you have 997 then you will have time to receive the 1000 badge.... you have until Feb. 19 to get 3 more.... tumbsup.gif
I only have 967 but thats total badges not weekly there is noway I will get it.Congrats everyone and good luck WTG all.
I have every weekly badge since 2003 and my total for that is 997 too....I don't think anyone has more than 997...
I agree but we'll all have met the requirement by Feb.
Is it true that other people are going to be eligible for the same badge even if they don't have 1000 if they play the 1000 badge being offered in the weekly challenge of Thousand Island Solitaire? I may have read that part wrong...
I think when you get it the first time-say you hit 1000 badges by feb, you'll get the special edition badge. If you haven't and get it say in June, you'll get it with say a gold border or something. I could be wrong.
If Pogo would actually think about the revenue that can be made on this limited badge they would change their tune. Make it available for a longer limited time and then charge something for a week of unlimited personal challenges. Or 20 personals for a week and let people pay for several weeks of those personals. There are lots of ways to make revenue off of this because people want that badge. I remember actually changing my plans for the weekend they had that 3 day challenge in Poppit to pop all balloons just once! I came home early just for that badge (first part of addiction is admitting). And when I understood that there are going to be a lot of people who are not going to get the 1000 weekly badge, it opened my eyes to the revenue opportunity. They are just idiots.
I'm a bit surprised that Pogo hasn't whetted our appetites by giving us more personal challenges (marathons). That might spur on those who are really lacking in numbers to buy more PC challenges above what they offer for the week. Just sayin'....
cheesy.gif dancing16.gif Wow, thanks everyone ... I thought it was just me with 997 weekly challenges and couldn't get more ... whew.
You just can't beat this site!!!!! cheerleading.gif Thanks again everybody!!
In the UK, we never got to do any of the scrabble weekly badges. So those of us that have done every weekly since 2003 are on 990. ... 7 behind the rest of you
We dont reach 1000 badges until the 20th Feb.... 1 day after the deadline girls18.gif
What do you think the chances are of Pogo extending it for us sad.gif
nope, pogo won't extend the deadline. IF they do, I'll crap myself

What a rip! I think we should start an email campaign that will extend it one lousy week. That's just not right. Are you sure the numbers are right? Is there a UK version of the 1000 Badges that comes later? If this all plays out the way you say, I'd be ticked off.

Yes it totally sucks! crying10.gif
Ive completed EVERY weekly album and completed 6/6 for 2013
My total weekly is 990
I need 10 more to reach 1000. So thats 5 more Wednesdays which takes it to 20th Feb.
I dont think they are doing a sep one for the UK . It doesnt say only available to US peeps. AND if it does then they really should state it because I know of a lot of friends who are spending like crazy to try and get it. magnifier.gif
I am sure it is just down to the Scabble badges as we cant do them here, the game doesnt show up in our lists.
Can anybody check how many scrabble weeklys there has been and see if it is 7?
Ive just had a look threw "leeter to Editior" on pogo and a few people have mentioned this.
Pogo's response is:
---
There's a lot of confusion around this, and my original answer was a little off.
If you are from the UK – you have to have earned EVERY SINGLE WEEKLY BADGE AVAILABLE TO YOU by February 19th.
If you are in the US – you have to earn 1,000 WEEKLY BADGES by February 19th. You'll actually have a few "extra" badges to earn to get to that number.
The difference is that players in the UK are not eligible to play SCRABBLE badges (due to licensing issues), so they need to earn a few more badges to become eligible. This means US players have a few extra weeks to get to 1,000. Hope that clears up the confusion! turk.gif
----------
Maybe my calculations are not worked out the same way as Pogos. Now im really confused help.gif
There have been six SCRABBLE weekly challenges and one SCRABBLE Sprint weekly challenge for a total of 7. Maybe they are planning a similiar celebration in UK later because the UK version of Pogo is much younger than US Pogo. <--- Just thinkin' out loud. I can't believe that Pogo would omit the UK for no reason, especially when there's money to be made (buying extra weekly challenges). We Yanks stand beside you Brits! It sounds like you're going to get the badge, though, if Pogo says UK folks just have to get every badge available to them and you've done that. Hope there is a happy ending here. Good luck!

has anyone gotten the badge yet?

No one will get the badge until after the 26th of Feb. as they extended the deadline.....and Pogo says it may take some time before anyone actually receives it because they have to verify the amount of the player to make sure they have the 1000 weeklies. impatience.gif
thanks for the info...hopefully by then the UK folks will get it..
Still waiting on this badge.
From pogo news :
In honor of this amazing milestone, those who have completed 1,000 Weekly Challenges by February 26th, 2013 will be rewarded with a very special badge at a later date after confirmation.
I wouldn't expect to see the badge for a while ...
I presume that when the badge finally arrives, it will be in the Special Edition album. Do I presume correctly or incorrectly?

I think they should give a badge for 1000 badges period!!!!!
That's just me.

Unfortunately, it's probably too late for the 1000 Badge. It's good information for the future, though. cheerleading.gif
