Level 18 is pretty good for butterfly challenges in Bejeweled Stars:  20 butterflies per game which go fairly quickly.

Which level is best to play for the Butterflies????

Found it on my own.  I highly recommend Level 18.

Updated to include:

Anagrams

For challenges requiring you spell x number of 6-letter words, Inky recommends the following:
Challenge Mode> Boarding Challenge> Level 39 which contains 7 6-letter words

I'd like to enlist everyone's help in creating a list of games that give you credit towards completing a challenge even if you don't win the game. For example:

Stack'em gave credit for 20 pink pigs even though I lost the game. (I lost on purpose to see if it would, and it did.)
Quinn's Aquarium requires a win to count towards progress in a challenge.

Stack'em gave credit for 20 pink pigs even though I lost the game. (I lost on purpose to see if it would, and it did.)

That's so funny, I did the same thing in Stack'Em this morning.

Off the top of my head:
TriPeaks Solitaire:  Don't need to win to get peak credit.
Mahjong Safari:  a recent challenge of getting STAR tiles didn't require me to win when I hit an impasse in the game.
Canasta:  win is not necessary but getting to the end of the hand usually is.
Peggle Blast:  If you don't win the level, you'll still get credit for orange pegs/purple pegs.

Can someone explain to me when or why, when playing Snowbird Solitaire, would I use the fan power up to extend the streak?

[Mayhem]

That's a good question! I never used one.

I don't use P/U's in that game
