Greetings,
Looks like we can hold The Bingo Jam Event until the start of the next constellation.  
Thanks for posting,

Thank you. I had noticed this morning and started it. I like that you don't have to do in any order, and can activate more than one

Thanks for posting.  There are two that will be bad for me, Solitaire Home Story and Lucky Cat Bingo.  The rest go pretty quickly, so far.

[Mayhem]

I noticed the challenges are not too demanding. I may actually make decent progress in this.

Does anyone know how to get those 4-card bingos in Cat Bingo?  

[minimarshs]

You need to buy them.  If you haven't played a lot (neither have I) then it will end up costing.  There are two different ways to purchase, either the purple things with the crowns in them (no idea what they are called) or the tokens (gray with a T in the middle). The cheap 4-card games cost 500 of whichever you want to spend. It is my understanding that you can gain both from playing the free 2-card game, or buy them from the store.  It will either cost time or gems.

What irritates me most - 2-card games, every 2 out of 3 rounds, I get at least 1 bingo; 4-card games, every 2 out of 3 rounds, I get at least 1 bingo.  However I look at it, I will need to play a lot of this one particular game. 

And I totally understand why the Buddy isn't released yet, if ever.  Too many moving pieces.

I got the Lucky Cat Bingo last night. It went not too bad for me. I find it depends how many people are playing. Sometimes I get one bingo and sometimes get 3 or 4

Too start out I played a lot of free games to build up the tokens. But as time went on and getting free Power ups helps as well.

[minimarshs]

WTG!  That's fantastic!  I need to play A LOT.

Thank you MM and congrats to you, Smokester!  I don't know if I can play enough to gather up the purple crowns or the T coins.  This is so discouraging!  I don't want to spend my hard earned gems on them either.  I would love an auto for this game.

[smokyrain]

I agree an Auto would be great for this game

[Mayhem]

I haven't started on it yet, but I'm hoping it goes smoothly.

[minimarshs]

I have a question about Lucky Cat Bingo - what is the Daily Event in that game?  The reward is points, but how to get them?  I played three 4-card games and did not badly this morning, but no points, I am in 60th place.  We need a good instruction rubric for this game.

[smokyrain]

So you can click on the Event when it first opens and click on Prizes, It will show you what you get for what Place you are

Or you can click on the Crown beside your rank and view Leaderboard, then check Rewards. Each day is different, but the Event shows the total Earned.

[smokyrain]

I agree though there should be better instruction on things work

[minimarshs]

Soooooo... I finished my first board.  Woot!

The second board has the challenges in different spots.  The very horrible Solitaire Home Story is no longer in B5, but in G2,for instance.

Some of the challenges are different also.  The first board had the Quinn's requirement as 10 games won, this time 20.  And no badges for all this extra playing, except a completion badge, which I won't get because I won't do Home Story a second time, even though they only want 150 club cards instead of the 300 this time.

Anyway, just some FYI.

[smokyrain]

WTG MM.. I am still working on Home story. Halfway there. I was thankful for 10 minutes of Jokers today. I don't love that game

There is now an auto for Lucky Cat Bingo. I am going to try it out later

[minimarshs]

Thanks for the headsup on the Kitty Buddy.  I hadn't noticed.  I will try that in the morning.
Good luck to you and everyone else with this bunch of challenges.

I saw one of the new changes were :

Diverse Bingo Boards - Enjoy unique sets of Challenges with the first three Bingo boards. After completing the third, you can replay it up to seven more times.

Thanks!  I'm hoping the auto will win tokens for me that will let me buy the 4-card games for the challenge.  I'm about 1/2 done.
