Hi,
I have gone through my whole system and it's running fine and passed all tested, Windows XP is all updated. All of my auto's work great ! But the old and the new dotbot don't work. I turn it on and occassionally it will move a tile . but nothing serious. I timed it, and in 30 minutes it played 4 games "WITH MY ASSISTANCE" and won 1 game, but it say it only played 3 games and won 1 ! so it fibs too ! lol ! I've moved around dotbot thinking maybe in a wrong place or something, but no matter what I do, it barely works. I've rebooted several times, there is nothing on my startup, nothing is running in my background unnecessarly, only my anti virus and hardware fire wall that doe not hender me in any way in doing anything. It does not interfer with any of my auto's , playing games, surfing, nothing is taking up unnecessary resources. I'm at a loss on what to do, anyone know the problem or have any suggestions ? My settings are correct as well............ ????????????????????????????????????? anyone ?????????? HELP !!!! lol! thank you

) Operating system  XP SP1
2) Browser Internet Explorer 6x
3) Color setting high 32 bit
4) Screen resolution 1024x768
5) Smooth edges of screen ~~ is what ever badgehelp told me to put it on
6) What Java  Microsoft VM Jit Compiler for virtual machine enable (requires restart)
7) Is anything at all happening when you start the program?? ~~Nothing takes forever to move a tile, when and if it decides it wants to ! More info above
thank you.

My spec are similar to yours only I am running SP2. It works fine for me in IE.

The only java I have enabled is Microsoft VM. Only thing should be checked is JIT compiler.

Hope this helps. ;)

Also, make sure you have latest version 1.3 :)

If you don't care about tokens do the 2 browser trick.

I got the badge in about an hour.  When I was using Dotbot it was only winning 60% and it takes longer to finish a game.

With 2 browsers you set the forfit timer and make the other name lose.  Each game takes about 1:30 to win, spin, start again.

http://www.pogocheats.net/clubcenter.php
QuoteThe double browser trick requires two different browsers (no surprise there ;) ) and two different Java's; Sun and MS JVM. If you don't already have a browser in addition to Internet Explorer, there are many to choose from. Firefox is one the many that will work.

If you don't already have two different Java's, you can get Sun at www.java.com, and you can download JVM here.

» How do I know which Java I have?

If you see a coffee cup icon appear when you play Pogo games, that means you have Sun Java. You can tell if you have MS JVM by going into Tools -> Internet Options -> Advanced in Internet Explorer and looking for something that says "Microsoft VM". If you see it then it means that you have MS JVM. If not, then you do not and will need to install it as explained above.


Once you have two browsers and two Java's you now need two Pogo™ accounts. Just register an account like you normally would. Now just use one browser with one account and use the other browser with the other account and start a game. (A private password protected room is probably best.) Now just let one account win to your hearts content and that badge will be yours in no time!
