TY, silly me - I activated QA first.

[Mayhem]

I'm leaving that one for last!

[Squid]

I got it done, it wasn't too bad.  BEWARE activating MERGE.  You may get the transactions done that are now listed but the replacements are excruciatingly long and hard.  Getting that one, for me, will take DAYS.

[Mayhem]

Thanks for the heads up!

I did Solitaire Home Story first. Thank goodness you don't have to win the game to move on. But yes that is a lot of orders in a short time for Merge Academy

[Mayhem]

Yeah, I found out today that the Merge challenge is not a lot of fun.

Yeah, I found out today that the Merge challenge is not a lot of fun.

In one account it went super easy.  In the other, many of the items are late generation things that come from the "Wand" tree.  You only get about a dozen generated items from the tree before it goes dormant and then you have to wait an hour and a half before you get more.  It makes progress super slow.

I am doing the Merge Academy now, last one. See how it goes

[Mayhem]

Hopefully it won't be too bad, as family has arrived from out of town today - so time is limited!

[Squid]

good luck, all!  I finally got mine this morning and I did not waste time.  Those items were a killer!
Now I only have two days to get two more challenges.  Eeek.

[Mayhem]

It looks like I'll be able to finish it!

[Squid]

I got it done.  I was stuck on Merge for at least 4 of the 7 days, maybe 5

[smokyrain]

Not sure if I will get it done. I only have 4 of the 25. I have orders that take a lot of time to finish. Then like Squid said you have to wait for the generators again. 
I guess we will see if I can get those few orders out of the way, then it might go quick

Here's a bit of good news.  As you fill an order, it seems that it's being replaced with a somewhat easier order to fulfill.  Maybe Pogo has been getting complaints and sees the end is nearing so they're helping with easier tasks.  Let me know if I can help out, Smoky.  I'll be gone most of tomorrow.

I got the hardest ones done, so hopefully tomorrow will get it done. Thanks for the tip and offering help.
