There must be a lot of people working on the Casino Island badge tonight. I haven't been able to get into a room in the last forty minutes. It just keeps saying it's loading but never finishes. I've been working on my personal challenge instead (Greenback Bayou).

again, i'm trying to get the badge for three accounts, and i'll tell you now, i'm getting really sick of casino island and if i draw out to 21 only to watch the dealer 5 card charlie me one more time, i will go Cappy on that damn game..... 300 wins is ridiculous, especially watching the dealer catch so many low percentage cards to win.... the badge, to be somewhat hard but not crazy like it is now, should have been, say, win 150 games OR play 350 hands..... or make the volcano explode 40 times......sheesh...... so anywho, i got all 27 tri-peak 10 card streaks, and have 679 of the 900 casino island wins..... and i can honestly say i will never play that game again until it comes up for another badge, and even then the odds of me playing are as about as good as me catching a 10 while doubling down with a 7 - 4 and the dealer showing a 3 .......yep, you guessed it, i caught a 5 to make 16 and his down card was a 4 and he caught a king to hold and win at 17 .... :evil:

Ditto, Qbone. I didn't care for Casino Island Blackjack before and I really loathe it now. 300 games to win is ridiculous. I still don't have the badge yet but I'm close, I think I'm around 245.
I absolutely hate it when you get 21 and then the dealer gets a 5 card Charlie. :evil: :evil: :evil: :evil:

I'm only at 68..I'm not sure the badge is cool enough to be worth me even trying. Maybe if I get really, really bored.

i didn't even start the Black jack one! LOL.
Q-bie want my password? You can do mine too. :razz: :wink:

I can't believe y'all are having such a hard time with the Blackjack Badge!
Does everyone know that you win more often if you play only against the puter and not other players? I have only gone for the badges for about the past month, but I find that in multi-player games, I had it very easy if I picked a private table and played the puter. BTW, I set up a password, so that if anyone ever wants to join me they can. The pw is always BUD! So if you want to have a visit, y'all can come on in!

Her Grace, for me Blackjack isn't so much hard but very time-consuming. I'm getting tired of playing the game. :evil:

pika- 07-24-2005
Duh, I can't count any higher than 20. After that, I run out of fingers and toes.

I got my tri-peaks badge pretty quickly. Been working on my blackjack badge for quite a while now. As of right now, I have 230 / 300. I'm going to finish it up tonight if it kills me. I started at rank 4 at the beginning of this badge and am already to rank 9. Ugh!!! Now, I just need to find an easy personal challenge to get done in an hour or less.

I always play against the computer if I'm able. I've mentioned before that I hate playing with random people because it makes it go so much slower.
I've got about 240/300 and am taking so long because I hate hate hate the game and hope to never have to play it again! It's based purely on luck, no skill, no fun, hate it!!!!!
Oh, and I use a private room and my password is "rtvp" if anyone wants to join me!

How's everyone doing with their challenges this week?
I got the poker one finally, what a bore!!!! Except for the chat time. And I've finally figured out the other game, whatever it's called, and will finish up my badge today and then figure out what I want to do for my personal challenge this week.
How about you guys?

I finished the Ali Baba and Poppa Zappa challenges last night and started working on a personal challenge for Poppit.
Her Grace- 07-28-2005
I finished Ali Baba and my personal challenge (Tumble Bees) yesterday and have yet to start on Poppa Zoppa yet, will start it shortly. Thirty eggs seems like an awful lot. I practised the game a tad and it seemed to take a while to get the eggs, to me anyway!

Is there any secret to that damn slots game? I went around 100 times and did not get three carpets ONCE. AHHHH.
