I have noticed that an awful lot of the prize winners this week are coming from Sweet Tooth. *HINT*
Probably because of more people playing for the badge. It's nice to see where some of the smaller stuff is being won. :)
I'm sick of pogo listing winners in chat it throws me off when I'm chatting to someone >:(
yeah I find it very annoying have been playing on pogo for 5+ years and never won anything but enough wallpaper to paper my house... now knowing someone wins every minute annoys me I liked thinking very few win if any..... :(
I find it very annoying too...just cuz it catches my attention for a sec every time it pops up
Have any1 won
I think it is a little annoying myself and I have not won anything but wallpaper also. I am glad ppl are winning but I do not think they should put the winners up in every room. O0 O0 O0
Theres been a buttload of winners & not just in sweet tooth, I have seen, Pop Fu, Canasta, Sweet Tooth, Tri Peaks & Squelchies, just in the last hour.... I wonder why the sudden winning streak
OMG! JUST AS I was typing this someone won in PAYDAY Freecell...
And now in World Class Solitaire.. :( I dont get it
Now a winner in Bingo... I wonder if this is fake...
NOW One in SweetTooth, Something is fishy, Look at my times.. I post as I see it pop up in my chat lol.
Now one in pinochle. Anyone else think this is quite fishy? I know many people on Pogo & NONE of them have won & None of thier friends have won lol. Now I am getting obsessed with this. Or havent ya noticed? lmao
Now someone won the football fridays promo week 5 drawing >:(
Another prize in Sweet Tooth >:(
I think all the winnings are HALLOWEEN TREATS I HAVENT WON ANY THING EITHER :-\
One of my customers has emailed me and told me they won $10 in slots....so it can happen to you.
I think I won a mug at one point. Don't know when or where, but on the recent winners a while back, someone with my first name and last initial one it. If it was me, it was by using an auto, so I never asked Pogo about it. Heh
I won 5 bucks last year..only took a few months to come ..although they did send letters telling me it would arrive soon...lol
I also won a nice cordless phone on that Treasure Trivia game they used to have....you could use what ya won on that game to bid on prizes sorta like an auction.
The only prob with the phone was they didnt tell me it was $50 shipping and handling,so imagine my surprise when i had to fork that out to get my package.The phone was worth it though,i looked it up and it was worth around $200.
Just so nobody feels too bad that they are not winning when "everyone else" is. I noticed about 5 winners per hour when there were about 250,000 people playing on Pogo.
If one does the math, one sees Pogo is giving out one prize for about every 50,000 hours of play.
If you happen to be one of my most die-hard customers and play Pogo 19 hours a day every day, you will play 50,000 hours of Pogo every 7 and a half years. If you are one of my more moderate die-hards who plays only 16 hours a day every day, it will take closer to 9 years.
Of course, if you only play at work for 40 hours a week, it will take 25 years to complete 50,000 hours of play.
I suggest to everyone just play. Get your badges. Keep in contact with your friends. And most importantly, have fun! If you win a prize, that's an extra rosette on the icing on the cake.

Duhhhh... :P
*slap myself*
Oh! *clears throat*
I don't think that plethora of hours theory is effective. No offense.
I suggest playing games that you can easily get jackpot spins like Word Whomp and Turbo 21 with the autos, of course.

Remember that almost all of these announcements are for the small prizes not the jackpots. They give out more smaller prizes than jackpots. :)

Right, But I have never see as much as I have seen this past week lol
Dream Faerie,
Pogo changed the announcements. It used to only announce the jackpot winners in the same game. Now it announces all winners in all games.

Ohhhh OK, NOW it makes more sense, Thank you for the information Bob. As usual, YOU ROCK!!!!!!!! O0
As an Aussie Pogo player I cannot win prizes but I would like to be able to win and donate my winnings to a charity..Do other overseas players agree?
Okay, with any of the auto players the only one that really has shown me a 100% winning rating at any time was the BB. So I was wondering with the Matchmaker program if I left it on and won a big prize would it know I was using that? Since it doesn't win every game you aren't showing high numbers of winning games. I was just wondering what it is that they track to find out that we are using these programs? Because since using BB I figure it would throw me out of the running if (I know big laugh) I ever did win.
