thanks for the heads up O0
Well, I just refreshed my pogo home page and Battlephlinx is now on the coming soon list. That can only be a good sign :)

I hope its a very good sign.
Has anyone noticed the main page saying Battle Phlinx coming soon? So maybe finally in the next week or so :). I know it wasn't on there earlier today, or if it was i never noticed it lol
Theres another post about it.
sorry i didn't see it, or wouldn't have posted it again :)
Its cool. I think the other one is under "general pogo information". Thanks for the O0 anyway.

But wasn't Lottso listed as coming soon for like 7 years? Coming soon in pogo language means sometime between now and whenever ;D
Exactly right.
Well we know it comming.. Now the waiting can start.. or more the is it time yet...is it time YET!! ;)
Of course, pogo had to wait to almost release the game until just before I leave on a 10 day trip. Oh well. I guess I can play when I get back. Wait...will pogo even release the game in 10 days? Who knows, the words "coming soon" could mean 2 days or 6 months.
10 days- 6

well it could mean anythime.. when it ready then you know- I think the best way is to check your favorite- if u see it there. it rdy.. And then the MAN RUSH can begin O0
I hope you could wait a little longer. A scorce close to pogo told me that it will come out eather 27th of july onr the 3rd of Augest.
I need to find me a pogo source... 8)
ya, me2..how yu guys find all this good source stuff people?!?! :'(
I'm not sure if I can post images yet (waiting to hear), but I'll tell you that if you go into some other game and change the URL so that it says battlephlinx instead of the game you're really in, you'll be able to load the game screen, and once you have that loaded, you can go into your java's cache files and see all the graphics and ranks and everything for the game.
how do you change the url?
I don't know how but I actually got into the BattlePhlinx game :D
Walking in on the beta testers is one SURE way to kiss the big Pogo boot.
Nah, it's not against the rules, and doesn't actually take you into a playable game, it only loads the interface.
Besides, the beta testers aren't on pogo, they have their own site.
how do you download the Java Applets??
http://www.pogo.com/rooms/roomtabs.jsp?game=battlephlinx&sls=3&site=pogop&lkey=QtOUPw2qroHUYBXeCmb3ogAAKDw.
this link might only work for my name but this shows you the lobby for the game
Nope, it says 'Sorry, no rooms are available right now. Click a different tab or try back later.'.
You mean you can actually go into the game?? :o
Please, do not attempt to go into the pogo games that are being beta tested. You will get kicked to the curb. Someone in the forum posted the Texas Hold 'em link and a bunch of us went in and played the game. We were asked to leave and we did, yet one person stayed and was defiant. They later came to chat and said that they got banned by Pogo, duh! It is listed on the home page that you "do not attempt to play the games......" It is not worth losing your account over.
i only got to the lobby...i guess ill just have to wait
there are 50 ranks in battle phlinx and badges at ranks 5,10,20,35,and 50 :)
Thanks for the info.
i heard while i was in pogo that battle phlinx will have badges for the ratings and the ranks
Well, this is an idea on how ranks will be gained. I haven't heard anything about rated games though. I hope there won't be. That would make the rooms as vicious as bingo and pinochle rated tables. I can just see people trying to play battlephlinx on a double browser. :D
Rank Points can be a little confusing (it's a lot of math), so here are the basics:
* You earn more Rank Points for making more stones drop
* You earn a lot more Rank Points for coming in first place than coming in last place
* You earn more Rank Points for playing with human players than computer players
* You earn a few more Rank Points for playing a competitive game than a friendly game
I took a screenshot of the table select screen... There is an option for rated games.
Anyways it's supposed to be out tomorrow if all goes as planned.
WOW ARE YOU SERIOUS?????
I heard its coming out this week too. I thought it was gonna be today though.

Sorry couldnt get the pic to post , but here is the link to download the complete walkthru tutorial for Battle Phlinx
Guys, when pasting links .. make sure you remove anything after the "lkey=" at the end of the url.
Otherwise poeple can log on pogo as you. I have already fixed the link above.
Thanks! O0

When Is Battlephlinx Set To Be Released?...
Discussion Thread
Response (Pogo George) 07/19/2005 06:07 PM
Hi there,
Thank you for your interest in Battle Phlinx! Battle Phlinx will be a cool Multiplayer version of our popular Phlinx game. Battle Phlinx will also be available only to Club Pogo members.
We don't have the release date finalized yet, but you will be able to find out more about Battle Phlinx from its "Preview" link, in the top left corner of the Pogo Home Page.
If I can help with anything else, please update this question and let me know.

That's pogo's answer to everything. "We don't know". It's not true. They have a date planned, but won't reveal it because should something go wrong on that date, it will be delayed. Also, the games are always released quietly before they are announced officially. Meaning that you can usually find them on your Favorites list a few days before they show up on the main page.
I keep hearing it's coming out tomorrow, so hopefully that's still the case, though I'm not holding my breath or anything. : )
:oSorry, i didn't know that.Thank you Mayhem O0

If it is coming out tomorrow, would you have a time, Sorry just curious?? :P
No, it looks like they were wrong. Pogo never went down for maintenance, so I'll be very surprised if it shows up today.
My sourse was wrong. NO Battlephlinx today.
well it dont look like its going to be this week also
Next Tuesday. :)
I hope, I am very excited........
Maybe it's just me being late to the party but am I the only one to notice that Pogo typcially releases new games on one of these days: 1st of the Month, Pogo Badge Wednesday, or Tuesdays (rare but does happen). That being said, I'm assuming the game will come out next week on either Mon, Tues, or Wed. But you know what happens when you assume...
Pogo released Perfect Pair on a Friday.
that is very true barbara
the following link are the rules of battlephlinx

anyone noticed they took the jackpot part off the battlephlinx page? within the last 30 mins.....i was just checkin it out its not there now...on the left........maybe we are gettin closer? http://www.pogo.com/rooms/roomtabs.jsp?game=battlephlinx&site=pogop&
Thanks for that info. I just noticed that.
As for the release date I am not guessing anymore. All my sources are wrong. :(
A lot of sources were wrong Carly, not just yours. There are only two sources that I will listen to anyway, the "check gauges" light on my car near the "E" on the fuel tank gauge and the "hot donuts" sign on the Kryspy Kreme shop. Anything else is speculation. Battle Phlinx will be out when Pogo is ready to put it out and not one second sooner.
Right Barbara. When its out, its out. We just have to be patient.
I still need extra time to finish my Squelchie game first. I am so far behind.

You will get it I have faith in the Badge Fairy!!! O0 O0
Thanks! This Squelchie game is The Neverending Story. At the end of every day I send my stats to Max and he figures out how much longer it will take to finish the game and oddly enough, the amount of time seems to be going up and not down. Hey Ranger, what's up with the Signature?
Remember something, my little rasher of bacon, you will be gone next week and I will have access to your Mini and I will dress it funny (ier) By the way, you sure do like that 80,000 number. My jeweler is also going to like it when I finish the badge album, if you know what I mean.

I'm beginning to believe Battle Phlinx won't ever come out. I'm SO bored with everything else that badge-hoggin' isn't enough of a drive for me to even watch an auto play them, let alone play them myself. *Siiiiiiiiiiiiiigh*

i have a very reliable source saying that battlephlinx Will be released tues 2nd august O0
so much for your reliable source, huh! :'( ;D >:(
OKies, instead of guessing when they are going to actually let people play this game, why don't we bet how long it will take badgehelp to get us an auto for it...LOL :D O0
If it's slow moving in ranks for the badges, I am hoping in a day or two!! >:D
Here Here... I like it last for a couple of days or maybe a week.. A auto that finish it in couple of hours would mean I get the badges without enjoying playing the game - and then maybe I might get caught bye the POGO Police-
