I've never won, I haven't even won a prize. but I have made it to a high score in a few of the games. have you even won a prize like a mug, etc...? if so how do you do that?on the jackpot spin a few times I've gotten one away.

were you a paying member at the time? I keep hearing that you have to be a paying member to win money, i hope that's not true because that's pretty stupid.

Yes, I'm a paying member. It happened earlier this year. It looked like they were on a spending spree at the time because I keep seeing a lot of people's names popping as winners for cash. It was always low amounts, up to $20, but it seemed generous compared to other times when you just see a winner here and there.

I have two friends on pogo that the spinner stopped on jackpot for. However, neither of them actually ever got paid. They got wallpaper instead. Ya, the pogo wallpaper! I have been a member on pogo since almost the beginning. Since 1998ish and have won wallpaper a few times, but never any significant prize. I have given up on the idea of ever winning one. I enjoy the site and the games and the people, so I keep going back, but winning a jackpot, I am convinced, is only done by pogo employees that pose as players. Anyone else think the same?

well that's crummy, yeah I was kinda wondering about that because when i'm in a room/game a green announcement would pop up in the room saying that someone has won, then i'd search for the member and it be there, a week or so later i'd search again and that member wouldn't exist, i thought that they just say that people would win and really not, and they just reset the jackpot like someone won, but people have told me that they've won wallpapers or a mug or something but never the cash. I think that's a bunch of crap, it is fun to see how much tokens that i could win in one game though.

I've never won anything on Pogo. The most I've won is 1,000 tokens on jackpot spins. Sometimes I wonder just how shifty the jackpots are. I'd love to win a jackpot. I really would, it would be nice. Then again I'd also just like to win a prize because it would definitely keep me motivated and interested in staying a member. I've never even won a wallpaper or screen saver yet. So it's kind of annoying.

I think the jackpot is fake. I would find winning useless crap as an insult. I can buy a mug a lot cheaper.
