Unlock Mint Custom Dice in Yahtzee with Buddies

A lot of people write in and ask, "What are diamonds used for in Yahtzee with Buddies?  I win them and collect them but what can you do with them?"  This is the first set of custom dice, if I am not mistaken that you can purchase without cash directly but with diamonds?  Are you going to fork over the 200 diamonds that it costs to buy?

They appeared today (2/18/2016) on the custom dice tab after you tap award (star on android)

So, you can get the Mint Custom Dice with Diamonds.  I'd like to see something that offered them with bonus rolls also.

Parade of Presidents in Yahtzee with Buddies

The Parade of Presidents has just opened in Yahtzee with Buddies.  The showdown will last 21 days and have to beat nine dice masters in order to get your custom dice!  

You can use bonus rolls to skip the wait as usual.   The first wait can be skipped by spending 2 bonus rolls and progressively gets more expensive.  
I don't see anything about a vanity frame on this one so it might just be the dice and a lot of chances to get XP, since there are only 9 dice masters.  How to beat John F. Kennedice?  You'll need two yathzees! I also listed how many bonus rolls to avoid the wait.


The dice masters that you'll need to beat are:

BRONZE LEVEL: (5 Bonus Rolls for Completing)
George Onesington: 50 XP, 165 Avg.
Fourmas Jefferson: 100XP, 195 Avg. (2 BR Skip)
John Quintsy Adams: 200 XP, 215 Avg. (3 BR Skip)

SILVER LEVEL (10 Bonus Rolls for Completing)
Honest Eight Lincoln: 500 XP, 230 Avg. (4 BR Skip)
Teddy Rollsevelt: 1,000 XP, 255 Avg. (6 BR Skip)
Wouldroll Wilson: 1,500 XP, 270 Avg. (8 BR Skip)

GOLD LEVEL (15 Bonus Rolls for Completing + Custom Dice)
Harry S. Twoman: 2,000 XP, 280 Avg. (10 BR Skip)
Dwight Eisenroller: 3,000 XP, 300 Avg. (12 BR Skip)
John F. Kennedice: 5,000 XP, 321 Avg. (15 BR Skip)

Once you beat them all, you receive this message at the end. There is no mention of getting anything new, such as a vanity frame but here is what I paid to get this in one day:

60 Bonus Rolls Used
30 Bonus Rolls Won

13,350 XP gained in one day.

My Current Custom Dice in Yahtzee with Buddies

I have been asked to post what my current custom dice collection looks like.  I don't have all of them and I'm missing quite a few.  Here are my current dice as of 2016.02.13.

From the items that are locked, I am missing the Black Diamond Dice, Platinum Dice and the Candy Custom Dice that is part of the community event.

Many of these were obtained from completing the goals of the achievements listed on the awards screen. The rest were given by participating in the community events like the clue community event 

Every now and then, Scopely gives dice simply for entering a tournament or for get 1 through 10 in the premium.

Good Luck Custom Dice Collectors!

Hot Shooter IV in Yahtzee with Buddies

The Hot Shooter is an achievement in the winner category.

The Hot Shooter IV Achievement in Yahtzee with Buddies is the final achievement level worth 2,500 XP when you complete it.  What makes this so difficult is that one must defeat fifty (50) opponents without losing - in a row!  Do you think that it is impossible?  Nope.  It was actually pretty easy.  Here is the proof.  Note that I actually made it to 63 before I lost (I forgot and made a move).

In order to win 50 games in a row, you'll have to play over 100 concurrent games at once.  The reason is that you probably win half the games that you play.

As you play a game, you can tell which games you are going to win, keep playing those.  

Games where you determine you will lose, stall.  You can only stall a game for seven days before you lose.  You have seven (7) days to win 50 games, or about 7 or 8 games per day.

When I lost that game, I was into day three so I could have gone to about 120 or so games in a row before I would have started to forfeit/lose automatically.

Good luck and let me know if this helped...
