Here I am at half past midnight, with an hour and a half to go before my time is up for the week. I'm trying to get my personal badge and it's just not working!!!! I'm doing Dice Derby, win 10 games with 600 tokens or more. I win a lot, but I always get like 300 tokens. Or, they'll tease me every now and then and I'll get 500. I've been playing all night and I've only gotten 1 tonight. I'm up to 9 of 10, I did have 2 to get tonight. I do NOT want to go to bed without finishing this badge - that means I'll have to start it all over again a different week!!! Why do I torture myself so????

I really do hope you got that personal badge last night. That would be horrible to be that close and not get it. I have confidence in you though, I know you got it. As for the torture??? You are like me and you are hooked is all I can guess. haha

I did get it - around 1am! I am so tired tonight, I should be in bed already. But of course I'm playing CANASTA!!!

Well, if my sister hadn't joined me, we'd both have the Canasta by now! We were both really close and now we're slugging along. Of course we're on hold in the middle of a game because she had to go pick up my neice from work... But one more hand will get it for us both I think. I HOPE because I want to go to bed!

Way to go, I knew you could do it. At least this weeks badges are easy to get. I had both of mine and my personal badge in less than three hours. Now I am back to working on getting to rank 50 in turbo 21 and just got to rank 38 earlier. This is taking forever. I do stop and play something else ever so often to get a break. Good luck with your badges this week.

reiny why do we torture ourselves with such a thing when we have to work the next day. I have done that also. I hope you have caught up on your sleep by now.

Glad you got it! I've been trying to get the score of 200 for Pogo Bowl and I'm lucky if I make the spin. Twice I've tried and ended up changing my personal challenge to something easy when I was down to the last couple of days. Yes these games are addicting!!

I did finally get it, and I was so glad because it had taken me almost all week! I was afraid I was going to have to change it at the last minute too and waste all that time. pogo.com is very addicting!!!!

Not only do I hope you got the badge, but some sleep as well! I know exactly which challenge you're talking about it. It's hard to get and drives you insane! No pun intended. LOL Please tell us you got and won't have to try for it again!

Yup, 1am and I was DONE!! I do have 3 more Dice Derby badges to get, but I think they'll be SO much easier. I'm glad that one's done with!

You sound like me. I hate to give in when something like this happens. I always set my self these stupid goals and I always have to finish them. Even on Mylot I have to do at least 50 replies a day or I will not go to bed until I have done it. Good luck in the dice game. I hope you will get to bed soon. There is no point in telling you to give up and go to bed as I know what it is like and you just will not.

I'm so confused after reading your post haha. But if you're tired go to bed and you'll have better luck with your games tomorrow :) Are you on the east coast of the US? Because it's 12:30 where I am too

Yes, I'm on the east coast also. The pogo.com site resets it's games at 2am so I only have until then to get this challenge done. If I go to bed, I can't finish it tomorrow because it will reset.
