We have the very awesome Help With Badges/Challenges (http://www.pogocheats.net/forum/index.php/topic,22341.0.html) thread where people can go to ask for help getting their badges, but it's pretty long and disorganized. In fact, trying to find game specific information about the best way to get ranked out or earn challenge badges in that thread is nearly impossible. With this in mind, I asked Mayhem what he thought about having a thread where people can share with everyone else the settings, levels, and strategies they use for getting their badges, and he agreed that it was a good idea.
So what we'll do is, as people share their tips, the first post will be updated and listed (by game) to include that information so it'll always be easy to find.
Here we go!
Anagrams
For challenges requiring you spell x number of 6-letter words, Inky recommends the following:
Challenge Mode> Boarding Challenge> Level 39 which contains 7 6-letter words
Bejeweled Stars
For most challenges, focus on creating special gems, but don't use them right away. Eventually, during regular game play, the special gems will be detonated and will then clear away many more gems using fewer moves. Also, be sure to experiment matching hypercubes with with each other or other special gems, and matching 2 special gems of different or the same kinds for extra impact. Level 2 is a fantastic level to practice on. See The s1lentOne's link below for more information.
Mayhem provided the following information:
Flame Gem: Match 4 Gems in a line or a square.
Flame gems explode when matched, destroying themselves along with all eight surrounding gems.
Star Gem: Match 5 Gems in a T or L shape.
When matched, Star gems destroy all gems along vertical and horizontal lines from their own position.
Hypercube: Match 5 Gems in a row.
You can match Hypercubes to any adjacent gem regardless of color to destroy all gems of that color on the board. This is a great way to detonate other Special Gems or collect SkyGems that are not near any sets of their own color.
Dark Sphere: Match 6 or more Gems in a row.
When you swap a Dark Hypercube, it changes all of the Gems of the swapped color to Hypercubes.
Butterflies: For challenges requiring the dispatching of butterflies.
Inky shared that Level 18 is pretty good for butterfly challenges in Bejeweled Stars: 20 butterflies per game which go fairly quickly.
LittleFawn made these suggestions for Butterflies:
level 19 (you get 14)
level 24 (30)
level 27 (35)
level 61 (55)
level 129 (50)
The s1lentOne provided us with some fantastic information for ranking out and LittleFawn points out that it's a great way of earning coins quickly. Click on this link to be taken to his post. https://www.pogocheats.net/forum/index.php/topic,50762.msg674855.html#msg674855
Cookie Connect
Make X number of stars: In a game room they were saying that stars are made when you end a cookie streak diagonally.
Cookie Connect Stars and Arrows or Serve X number of customers Badges Glitch
Step 1:
Play on level 9 but don't win the level - lose on purpose.
Step 2:
When it asks you if you want to buy more moves, click 'no'.
Step 3:
Wait until the next screen pops up and shows your total (x/150) - make a note of what it says and click on "Continue Game".
Step 4:
When it asks you if you want to try again, click the X in the upper right corner.
It will now show you your total screen again and this time will be double. Thanks, Mayhem and CM!
First Class Solitaire Pogo has update FCS so the following may or may not work:
Win x number of games in a row: According to CrazyMan and Disneyland Lady, once you win the first game, if you see the next game (or 2) isn't going to win, just close the window and go back into the same room and play again. You won't lose credit for the games you've won.
Jet Set Solitaire
Seatbelt Cards : First Trip, go to the 12th location (Kilimanjaro). The airport level has 9 seatbelt cards available.
Peggle Blast
This is a great "in general" tip: If you have the time (about 5-10 minutes/day) play the daily. Get two spins to win Power-Ups. It will make these challenges. The fireball is very effective. Additionally, you will get chances to use other "Players"...Buddy is very useful.
Thank you, S1lent!!
Clear x number of pegs: Level 8 is great because it usually only take one shot to clear the board, making it a quick way to clear pegs.
For challenge objectives such as detonating x number of bombs:
Orange Pegs - Level 4 - 32 orange pegs
Bombs – Level 64 – 6 bombs
Gems – Level 84 – 20 gems
Pinatas – Level 91 – 8 pinatas
Warp Holes – Level 136 – 4 portals
Eggs – Level 171 – 24 eggs
Gnomes – Level 182 – 12 gnomes
Pop Frogs – Level 194 – 14 frogs
Purple pegs show up in several levels different levels but there are never a lot of them. Try level 8 as s1lent suggested because it's a quick level to complete so your best chance for faster progress.
To complete multiple objectives try the following levels
Bombs and Gnomes – Level 64 – 5 each
Gems and Pinatas – Level 28 – 5 gems and 2 pinatas
Eggs and Pinatas – Level 81 – 7 each
Spiders and Gems - Level 113 – 2 spiders, 8 gems
Gems and Gnomes - Level 122 - 7 gems, 5 gnomes
Spiders and Warp Holes - Level 129 - 2 spiders, 2 portals
Spiders and Pinatas - Level 130 - 1 spider, 5 pinatas
Frogs and Gnomes - Level 140 - 9 frogs, 3 gnomes
Gnomes and Frogs - Level 151 - 5 gnomes, 3 frogs
Thanks to Squiddly and the The s1lentOne!
Poppit
For challenges requiring you collect/use x number of power-ups: Keep clicking "new game" until you see a board with 1 or 2 stars. Those are the power-up prizes.
Poppit Party
All challenges and rank advancement: See the bottom of this post for helpful information regarding "wash" times and Power-ups. A HUGE thank you to Squiddly for putting this all together!!!
Sweet Tooth Town
Most challenges: This is another "match 3" game. In this game, like in Bejeweled Stars, you can mix and match the power-up candies, and can even match only 2 of them. For example, you can mix and match by matching a mouth power-up with a striped candy power-up, or stripes with any color cordial candy, etc. This can be a huge help on challenges that require x number of moves to complete.
Chocolate Level 2 is great for the Jelly Bomb Challenge
Cupcake, level 120 is good for candy swirls
Chocolate, level 4 is good for reds
Chocolate, level 2 is good for when going for high scoring games (points)
Cupcake, first few levels for when going for 3 stars quickly and consistently.

MAHJONG ESCAPE
I did the badge where the objective is to get a bunch of timed levels and China 5 did the trick, winning almost every game. Hope this helps!
Anyone else as dumb as me and been playing the No-Limit tournaments trying to get jackpot spins for this week's badge? If so, you can play the Limit games and you only need to win 4 hands to get a JPS, not win the tournament. low blow.gif
I must admit... I started in the No-Limit rooms and soon discovered my error. I switched over and had the badge fairly quickly. I'm not sure why the No Limit rooms didn't give credit; I won lots of hands. Live and Learn.

You only get credit in the no limit rooms if you win the whole tournament. Otherwise, no JPS.

I know someone who played for 9 hours and didn't get a single one. I got one in 5 minutes. It's all luck of the roll (when you get them).

Choose 1 line instead of all lines. It limits your chances of winning and thus less animations.

What's the best level to use to get the multi-colored hair dos on Makeup Madness?
According to another site, the best way to rank in Monopoly Slots is to play just 1 line because you're significantly cutting down on the winning animations, getting more spins per minute, therefore more dice as well - and dice don't have to be on winning lines to count. I tried it and it works.
They admit you'll not win as many tokens, but if fast ranking is what you're looking for, this is the way to go.
Just a reminder that Squid reported China 5 did the best job of completing X number of timed levels, which is one of this week's challenges. Let us know how that goes for you!

Good reminder, Stinky. It worked well for me.
Also, in Monkey Gems: if you're using BW's auto, it only plays the first level. If you play a couple of levels by hand, you get to the all fruit level and I think those fruit count towards the goal. My numbers jumped after that round.
** correction ** On a second go-round, the fruit level didn't seem to help with the numbers.
I'm helping get badges for 3 other people and they have not kept up with Escape................so I found that using Japan level 5 works. It was available to them. tumbsup.gif
BW recommends playing Rio de Janeiro level 5 and check the repeat option in their auto......it just keeps on going and going and going....
Thanks, Yoming! China is moving slow, so I'll try Rio.
Easiest way to get the Monkey Gems Fruits is to get your snake down to two gems of same color and just sit and wait for the fruits to pop up and then hit them and make sure to clear those gems right at the end of the vine. Then just end game and start the round over.

I did that exact thing, which is much faster than the auto.
huh.gif As usual, the best site on the net for info!!!!!
I don't think Britain level 4 has locks anymore. Any tips on easy lock levels? The daily challenge today has us getting 10 locks, I've only gotten one so far.
edited to say: I got it done. Byzantine level 3 did the trick for me.

Level 3. I got it done with 2 game screens.
For the Space Hunt Challenge in the new Mother's Day PBA 'Finish a game with 10000 points or more 30 times in 2 weeks!' you need to get at least 10,000 points but less then 20,000 points then you can click the X in upper right to submit your score. If you get more than 19,999 points it will not count.

Why won't it count? Does 19,000 not count as "or more"?

It wasn't for anyone in the room including me (using auto or hand play) so I told the room I wasn't getting credit and someone told me what to do and I did it and got credit and the badge. Seems it is a Pogo glitch.

Also by clicking the X you don't have to play out the game so it is faster as well. Most of my games still had at least 1 minute or more left on the timer when I got past 10,000 points and clicked the X to end the game.

Thanks! I was going to add it to the list of "how to" because it's a current badge, but since it's a glitch I'm not sure how I should word it. I'll look at it again when I get home.
Match and Merge Level 27 seems to have lots of yellow for this weeks challenge of getting 500 yellow tiles. You do not need to win the round but when you do those extra moves bring up the yellow tile count too.
Thanks, DLL!
Level 6 in Bloons will give you 10 darts per game. The levels where you start with one dart but that one dart will unlock many other darts, will still only count as one dart. Start in a level, like 6, with the most original darts.
I don't know what autos people use or if they use them at all... maybe you can keep replaying level 6.

Mthornton - it's nice of you to ask but most players in need of help will reach out to those who have been here a while and who have more than one post to their ranking. Stick around and get to know the group a bit ... all in good time.
Also, there is a thread dedicated to helping with badges and challenges.
I thought it might be nice to revitalize this thread, which can be very useful.
People recently posted on Solitaire Garden levels that might help you get the Flower Power "bonus" in the game (upper left card count).
Levels include:
English Garden, Part 1, Level 55
English Garden, Part 1, Level 10
If you're trying to get the Maxing Out Badge, you'll have to win the game along with getting that high card count. Good luck.

Ranking out tip for Bejeweled 3 (and others probably):
If you have more than one computer, you can put yourself into the game multiple times and each computer will contribute to your rank progress.
Updated with the last 2 posts. Let me know if I've missed any.
I read on Pogo Forum for Bejeweled 3 that starting a game on any other tab but CHALLENGES is the way to go. If you click on the CHALLENGES tab to activate any badges, click off that tab and onto either CHAT ROOMS or FORUM or HOW TO PLAY. The reason for this is that some people are having memory issues when playing the game and somehow the highlighted tab is involved. I don't know if this is true or even possible but it's worth clicking to another tab to stay on the safe side.

Adding some new tips for Solitaire Gardens from Joe!
English Garden Map Three, Puzzle 20 has TEN shovel cards. I do not have a winning percentage handy, but it looks good enough.
English Garden Map Three, Puzzle 27 has NINE watering can cards. It wins about 25% of the time (you must win game to get credit) but it is quickest way I have found to win that badge.
Japanese Garden Map Two, Puzzle 35 is great for badges requiring 5+ Card Wins and Getting Max Flower Power on the top left meter. It is also good for tokens. It wins about 40% of the time.

It looks perfect, mon cherie. I hope it's helpful. I found the chart for power ups especially helpful. In time, I will add CLUE episodes to the flashlight/fogcutter/NightVision lists by modifying the post and will let you know when I do. There are lots of challenges that require you to finish episodes with one or the other and I'm tired of hunting for them! LOL
THanks for all your help heart1.gif

I've used the charts, too, frequently. When you're OCD like

Solitaire Gardens:
For me, English Garden 1, level 6, works best for multiplier card challenges. That level is such an easy win.
BIG CITY ADVENTURE. I was away (in and back) for most of the week but did activate Gateway to Fun week 2 Surprise badge before I left. Now that I'm back and we're into week 3, I don't see week 2 Gateway to Fun Badge. After re-clicking Activate, it takes me into Big City's list of games but I'm not able to find it now. Do they delete them when the time has passed?

The page doesn't say anything about it expiring. Did you go to your most recent MnM badge book and look for Big City Adventure Badges? It's probably in there.

Yes, it's there and activated. But when it takes me to Big City it's not listed there and prompts me to choose/buy. I wasn't home most of last week, strange... what am I doing wrong? I was here to do this weeks Tri Peaks .. no big deal with that one. I activated it and it took me straight to Trip Peaks and it's done. Not sure how to find it in Big City - maybe I activated the wrong one, is Gateway to Fun the wrong listing maybe?
Ok, to get the Big City Adventure surprise badge, you just have to play ANY 21 levels in the game, then you will win the badge. It isn't an episode, it's a challenge in which you can choose the episode. Each of the 21 levels must be won with 1000 points accumulated.

Poppit! Party - changes have taken place in the game so the charts need updating, but for the most part they're accurate.
For those doing the M. Escape weekly challenge with locks/keys, China 28 has 6 of them and was easy to complete. Britain 4 (3 Locks/keys), as Stinkerbell has listed, is also good but I didn't win easily, so I switched to China28.

China 14----6 lock/keys
Try China 14.....it has 6 lock/keys and pretty easy to do without the auto...........my tip----I don't do all the locks at one time.....I get as many matches as I can and undo 2 or 3 of the locks then continue with the matches.
Some of the people I help have not reached level 28 in China,,,but 14 is a good one. tumbsup.gif

Updated to add:
Cookie Connect Stars and Arrows or Serve X number of customers Badges Glitch
Step 1:
Play on level 9 but don't win the level - lose on purpose.
Step 2:
When it asks you if you want to buy more moves, click 'no'.
Step 3:
Wait until the next screen pops up and shows your total (x/150) - make a note of what it says and click on "Continue Game".
Step 4:
When it asks you if you want to try again, click the X in the upper right corner.
It will now show you your total screen again and this time will be double.
I updated this thread with the following:
Seeds for Happiness Meter: Picnic Garden #1, level 15 earns 225 seeds per game, and has many wins.
I saw this posted in the Pogo Forum and tried it. It works great!
Hey, Stinky!
I have some updates:
1. Byzantine 20 is a great level for both timed puzzles and for Lock/key (4) in Mahjong Escape. You are almost assured of a quick win each time.
2. You can delete the tiny pics above - they don't really apply anymore as there have been changes and updates. I can transfer the pics to another image doohickey if you like.
Here's a glitch I found when activating 2 M&M's for same game. If they are close enough to each other as in below image, quickly click Activate on both of them and you see the spinner until they are activated. It has worked twice for me so far.

Inky, what happened to the Poppit Party image you had given us? It's not on the main post anymore.
I'm not sure, Stinker, but I'm sure I have the images somewhere on one of my puters. I don't remember but think they may need updating - things have changed. I'll look around.

Yes, I found the pictures. I want to convert them to another format, first of all. Also, I think there is some incorrect info - I'm not sure. I'll repost the pics when I'm done.
ETA: ok, even better - I found the original documents. I want the pics to be clearer than they were. I have to do this stuff on my other puter, too.

Update to add Peggle Blast: Orange Pegs – Level 4 – 32 orange pegs
This morning I was playing around with the daily challenge for Sweet Tooth Town and discovered that you can mix and match the special power-up candies even if the colors don't match, and even if it doesn't create a line-up of 3. So I'd match a red mouth with a purple candy with stripes and both power-ups activated. I had no idea. I had never tried it before. I'm thinking this will come in handy for some of those in-game special challenges where you have to win x number of levels in a row.
i think I stumbled upon this in the past but it happened so quickly, I wasn't sure what I matched up.

Those challenges usually goes so quickly, except that special challenge that they do every once in a while. This will come in handy. But with this, like with bejeweled stars, I always forget that I can make a flame by matching for to make a square. I need to work on that.

I'd like to enlist everyone's help in creating a list of games that give you credit towards completing a challenge even if you don't win the game. For example:
Stack'em gave credit for 20 pink pigs even though I lost the game. (I lost on purpose to see if it would, and it did.)
Quinn's Aquarium requires a win to count towards progress in a challenge.

Stack'em gave credit for 20 pink pigs even though I lost the game. (I lost on purpose to see if it would, and it did.)
That's so funny, I did the same thing in Stack'Em this morning.
Off the top of my head:
TriPeaks Solitaire: Don't need to win to get peak credit.
Mahjong Safari: a recent challenge of getting STAR tiles didn't require me to win when I hit an impasse in the game.
Canasta: win is not necessary but getting to the end of the hand usually is.
Peggle Blast: If you don't win the level, you'll still get credit for orange pegs/purple pegs.
Can someone explain to me when or why, when playing Snowbird Solitaire, would I use the fan power up to extend the streak?
That's a good question! I never used one.
I don't use P/U's in that game
I don't use PUs either. I was just curious.
I used one, and where it would come in handy is when we have an event.
Not to extend a streak, but when you're low on cards and you are trying to get the last gold card.

Greetings,
Here is a tip for Snowbird Solitaire. When you have a Challenge that requires you to win multiple games, instead of just playing the next level...return to "BACK TO MAP" and select another part of the resort. Just keeping levels you are able to handle...of course you will have needed to complete at least one part.
Hope this helps,
S1lent
This is a big "gem-sucking" game...I'll bet the programmers are all laughing diablo.gif diablo.gif diablo.gif
Thanks for the tip!
Updated with this Peggle Blast tip from S1lent!
If you have the time (about 5-10 minutes/day) play the daily. Get two spins to win Power-Ups. It will make these challenges. The fireball is very effective. Additionally, you will get chances to use other "Players"...Buddy is very useful.
S1lent
Does anyone know if this glitch still works? I tried it with today's daily and I THINK it did but I am not sure. I THINK I had 3 arrows but got credit for 6, though I was concentrating so hard on following these instructions that I may have miscounted.
