So if you pop a balloon, they don't "respawn?" Or do they "respawn" with bandages over them, because I popped one and my board is still full. Thanks! I really want the avatar ♥

[mewtwo]

i cant pop any balloons its ridicuous

[MariahB]

Yeah it suck when it bounces off and makes that annoying sound effect.

How do you get this avatar?

[pancakeface]

@tinfoot it's awarded randomly when you win kiko pop in hard mode.

Ah okay, just because I got it and I didn't know how/when I did. Don't recall seeing one of those "Something has happened, you are now eligble to use XXX avatar"

[pancakeface]

Congrats! As for the lack of a pop-up, don't worry about it. That's been buggy too, especially for game avatars I believe

[FelisNoctua]

So. It seems this one has been solved, random by popping on Hard. Could this be stated in the OP so people don't have to scroll through the whole thread? (Efficiency! Yar!) Thanks for figuring it out, btw!

Can't even pop the balloons on normal mode. 

 

Thanks for the tips though.

Kiko pop never fails to piss me off, how I can never pop the middle balloon puzzles me 

[Dewgong]

My method when I play is right when the game loads, put your cursor over the middle balloon and fire it since the wheel isn't at its max speed in the first second.

 

I got the avatar on medium if it means anything.

I hate this game so much. Even on easy it makes me miss most of the time

I always did what @Dewgong said and worked most of the time. Just keep clicking on the mouse the moment you choose the difficulty and it'll hit most of the time. 

[Bones]

still not got the avi even tho I hit the middle balloon 7 out of 10 times

[Dewgong]

I don't think you can get the avatar on Easy mode so best to try Medium since its random to hit the question mark anyways.

So I guess I've been playing this game all wrong.  Is there some sort of strategy to popping the balloons on hard mode?  I haven't popped any at all in a month lol.

[Quaffleshake]

Stupid random timesink! I did normal mode ever day and always aimed for the middle balloon if it had a bandaid on it. If it didn't I picked the next ring out with one. 

Got it yesterday - popped the middle balloon on normal mode. 

 

Good luck!

You can get the avatar on Normal mode. Try to aim for the balloon in the center. It seems to be what works for the majority of winners.

[Bones]

still no avi and getting annoyed

[iKate]

still no avi and getting annoyed

Me too, trying (almost) every day since the daily was released

[Bones]

yeah me2 kate.  Tried on both normal and hard hitting the middle balloon most days still nothing.

[Quaffleshake]

Stick with normal mode and aim for the middle! It's frustrating but that seems to be the best strategy to get it. 

[Eggroll]

I play on normal and my darts always manage to bounce off. ._.

[Quaffleshake]

It's another random one - I popped another today. 

Normal mode - balloon with the bandaid. Right in the middle. Most of the time it bounces off. This is only my 2nd pop. 

1st pop granted me the avatar. 

 

I've only been back playing about three weeks or so. So in three weeks of playing daily - 2 pops. Both of them middle balloons with a bandaid.

[Quaffleshake]

Two days in a row, two pops. Balloons with bandaids. Normal mode. 

Both center balloons had no bandaid for me the last two days. I opted to aim for the next ring our with a bandaid. 

Prizes are blah. Perhaps they tinkered with pop rate?

Anyone else getting increased pops?
