Cuz' getting the big roller badge does not count towards the actual "ranking" of a game. I consider a game ranked out when there are no higher ranks (according to pogo at the time) to get.   The special "in game" award badges are usually obtained during the course of ranking up and out of a game.  I hate it when pogo leaves it to chance on whether or not you get a badge. 
I have always considered RANKING OUT to be different than FINISHING. Besides, what always annoys me most is when Pogo puts a badge in your album THAT YOU CANNOT WIN today. Word Search Daily, Trivial Pursuit, Crossword Cove, Mini Golf Madness. swear2.gif

I have a question about considering a game finished. I did not consider Monopoly finished until I got the {Big Roller} badge requiring the three double-sixes.

I am closing in on finishing Mini Golf Madness. There are multiple "course" badges that have not been offered yet but will be in the future. I am not going to consider Mini Golf Madness "finished" until I get all the course badges. I am treating it like Word Search Daily, Crossword Cove and Trivial Pursuit. giggle2.gif

I still need that triple 6 badge....at least I can work on ranking that game out in my pursuit!  I left that badge on the end of my list until I rank out all other games first.

Unless it winds up being like some of the other games in which game playing between rank extensions has no bearing on you advancing rank.
That was exactly my point, Squid. I was none too happy when I did not get credit for all the games of Tri-Peaks I had played after ranking out the first time. tumbsup.gif

However, since Monopoly is a newer game, and ranks are based on something that actually shows up in your stats, we can hope. If not, time to dust off the cheat client and double-browse away to victory!

I read on another site that {Monopoly - Here and Now} will be extending to rank 100, with 5 more badges at ranks 60, 70, 80, 90 and 100.

Rank 100 supposedly requires Passing Go 7613 times. Since both screen names have passed Go 10,000 times in pursuit of the Triple 6 badge, I should in theory be able to play ONE game and re-rank out instantly.

Let's see how Pogo plays this. hysterical.gif

Lazy I had a free account and won badges. I gave the free account to my sis and got her membership on it. All the badges that were won were carried over and showed in her books with the exact dates they were won. You should be good to go tumbsup.gif

Have a question for you Joe....

I have one account that was just a five day pass.

If I play any games and make "un-official" rank ....

do I get my badges if I become a paying member with that account?

Do they give you all the badges with that day on them or the date you were playing

and would have won them had you been a member?
