You have to finish the game.  Forfeit won't work.  Then forfeit the game.  Look for people that have 5 as the lowest score and you know what they did.

  2. Thanks for stopping by and if you're able please leave comments on anything that I am missing. At the moment, I'm filling in as I go.

    Looks like it's a tournament achievement. I've made it to only Silver Level so far.

  3. Anyone know how to get the precision fail achievement?? Nearly impossible to get only 5 points

    1. i got it first try this time around!..i have tried in the past...its hard!!!...i was lucky enough to be able to put all 0z in all boxes (thats hard!)
      BUT luck really was on my side because on last turn i only had the chance box to fill...i rolled 4 ones...then on 2nd turn i rolled the 5th one!! i then of course didnt do my 3rd turn...i was shocked how lucky i was..i
      did it yesterday on the daily game! really should be awarded something more than a frigging free roll!

  4. Yes. This is how you get the "Precision Fail"

    Since you have 13 turns for each game, go for a yahtzee of all ones and put it in the chance box, if you don't get it, put a zero in each of the other boxes. Repeat for the whole game. Do this until you get the yahztee but make sure to put it in the chance box for a total of 5 points. Tell your opponent what you are doing also so they don't think you are weird. I did it last weekend in a couple of hours. An added benefit for your opponent is that they might get the "beat an opponent by 275" achievement.

    Hope that helped

  5. How do you get the Upper Hand (score 150 points in the upper section excluding the bonus)?

    ReplyDelete
  6. You have to get a yahtzee and score it in the upper section. Usually that will mean the second yahtzee, and if you get 5 5's then that will add 75 points right there, or 6 's yahtzee will be 80. When you have a really good game you'll get the achievement. The best yahtzee is a yahtzee of 6's (80 points!) after the first yahtzee which is 50, if you can place it on 6's, 3 of a kind, 4 of a kind, or chance

    1. Thank you...now time to do it lol!

    2. Good Luck! A lot of these happen by just playing. It's when you are close to completing them that I usually make a conscious effort to do them.

  7. How does the achievement work where you get a particular roll (Small Straight, Large Straight or Full House) using a bonus roll? I've gotten a Small Straight where I almost had it in three rolls, and finished it with the Bonus Roll - it didn't show up in the Achievements. I've also gotten a Small Straight by rolling all five dice in the bonus roll - still didn't show up. I am at a loss for how to do this, if neither of those methods counted.

    ReplyDelete
  8. Sometimes they don't show up immediately. I've looked at some of the support questions and see that on occasion you don't get the achievement but overall it works. It happened to me with 4 of a kind on all upper section. Some of the Lower Section Achievements take a long time to complete.

  9. What is level II three of a kind achievement?

    ReplyDelete
  10. After you finish the level 1 three of a kind achievement, it will change to a level 2 and you need to get more of it. For instance, getting 29 on three of a kind is level 1. Get that and it says you need to do it 4 more times for a total of 5 to complete the level II three of a kind on that one.

    ReplyDelete
  11. There is an achievement called Equal Opportunist VI where you need to beat 250 different opponents. I am stuck at 200. Do you know if there is a bug or if I might be ding something wrong?

    1. When stuff like that happens, I remove the app from my device and reload. I login and stuff starts to work again. I don't know why but it works.

    2. Thanks for the advice. Just gave it a shot, but no go. My other achievements are ramping up, but not this one. Same thing happens on my PC as well as my ipad.

  12. Looks like this will have to be a support email to scopely. Make sure you include your username. It takes them about 48 hours or so to get back to you.

  13. I have also been stuck at 200 for some time now and have contacted them through the help menu and received a reply stating "that this an issue that we have been actively investigating and endeavouring to get fixed"

    1. Mine is stuck at 200 but it shows the accomplished badge next to it. They probably won't fix it, just give you the badge.

    1. Level doesnt matter. Only wins in duels count. 100 wins = emerald 6 tier.

  16. 2 questions : I got a chance to do a gold scratch off card but after I read the rules about it I couldn't find it again to scratch it
    And
    What is beast mode

    ReplyDelete
    Replies
    1. The scratchers are up at the top on an iPhone. Tape the dice icon as if you're going to purchase. At the top, you'll see what appears to be a lightning bolt to the right. Tap on that.

      Second, Beast Mode is geting a yahtzee of 6 and placing it on 6's. The description is above under the "UPPER SECTION ACHIEVEMENTS"

      Delete
  17. What is the best way to get precise score 290? I get the 5 of a kind and then I get real close on the top but end up going over because of the 35 point bonus. Any tips? I Want those dice and I'm stuck on this one!!

    ReplyDelete
    Replies
    1. I have found that most common is just keeping track of which precision score you need. If you have a lot of games of yahtzee going on, you tend to forget. I did mine focusing what I needed to score for the last roll (0, 20, etc..) Same tactic with the tie game scenerio.

      Delete
  18. There is an achievement called loaded up. You have to get 4 of a kind in every upper box. Is there a way to get that or you just have to be lucky?

    ReplyDelete
    Replies
    1. Hello Denise,

      It is both. You have to attempt to get them using bonus rolls. I did it by focusing on getting it - it takes FIVE times to get the dice. This challenge is one of the more difficult items to complete.

      Delete
  19. Why when I win a game I am seeing the dice I've won and a little box with a question mark in it? What is that and where do I find it?

    ReplyDelete
  20. Where did the score only 5 points in a game achievement go

    ReplyDelete
  21. I have a question.. I have a few different frames but in a few there are blank spots is there a place I can go to find out how to fill the blanks...like I have a bronze beginner frame with 4 spots filled..don't know how I got them lol but would like to know how to fill the rest

    ReplyDelete
  22. The frames are filled in when you advance in your XP. Some frames are filled in by beating the towers each time but others are earned from accomplish a task. My next post is on the XP frames. :)

  23. Although it says win up to 200 bonus rolls on scratcher, has anyone ever got more than 3, because I've scratch off hundreds and never got more than 3.

  24. How are all these people getting perfect scores time after time, several times a day, every single day?!? 880 in every tournament. I understand they are using different devices and re-installing to get the rolls they want. But still it seems nearly impossible without the help on some type of cheat software!! I don't want the software. I don't want to cheat. I just wonder how they're doing it cuz it has to be some type of hacking software.

  28. What is the gold tier and how do i beat it? I really want the saddle blanket dice!! I also really want the gold dice, I'm currently in first place for the weekly challenge and if you click on that and hit the question mark it shows the gold dice wrapped in a red bow and it says custom dice. Will I get those if I win the weekly challenge??
