Best Of

Sorry @QueenB but I actually would have no idea what that message meant.

And I too feel that the widgets are a nuisance, I seem to either click on the wrong one to check progress, or click on one accidentally. The Events tab is so much better and neater, and way more user-friendly.

If the Studio really want to clutter up the board, they could just add a scroll down button.

I was doing some mad clicking today to try and speed things up and then for the remainder of the episode all the widgets just disappeared… that was great! I guess it's not really related to your method, but being without the widgets sped things up a lot for me. I guess King will change everything before All Stars anyway, so it's probably too soon to try to find the best tricks to out-trick these pointless animations.

My advice is to use 10 gold bars to get past levels like this one @Deal_One

Don't waste time replaying levels that would take hundreds of attempts to pass. Use your lives from friends to replay the "hard" and "super hard" levels in mid episode instead as some of those can be won after a few attempts. Those "boss levels" at the end of each episode can't be beaten. Don't waste boosters on them. Just wait until you can pass them with 10 gold: Once the game offers you +25 moves and a UFO it's the time to pay the gold and go for it.
