Trying to get through anniversary badges

when you have a "progressive" badge event going on, and it includes games that have limits to how many "lives" you have at a time, eg  Merge game and Solitaire home story, it is very difficult to get these achievements in order to continue playing for that even.  In the current anniversary even--you are requiring 2000 coins on Solitaire home story.  This is so difficult to achieve since you cannot just stay playing to gain coins.  It takes a lot of time and effort to get a 25 coin win, and then, you're out of lives!!   So, for this challenge you need at least around 80-90 "wins".  I don not have a problem sitting and working for a badge, but to constantly have to wait for a recharge is annoying--and keeps us from moving on to the other challenges.

This is very disheartening, and gets me quite upset.  It is not even guaranteed if I were to purchase additional coins that I would be able to earn this particular badge in order to move on to the rest.  I believe the expectations on this challenge are extremely high!!!

I am tempted to quit my membership--which I have had for many years.  When I first started with POGO you offered prizes.  Those were eliminated.  Then you got rid of the points.  The current pogo system is okay--not the best-it gives some incentives-which is VERY important.

Please respond to this!!

    I don't disagree that playing life-limited games for badges can be frustrating. I will also admit that I use the free version of Pogo only, so I do not have this badge. However, I do play Solitaire Home Story and would ask if you are progressing the story/unlocking various items? You do this on the main screen by clicking the button in the bottom left corner; it looks like a menu. Completing different areas gives you prizes, including unlimited plays for x number of minutes sometimes. Additionally, you can get these gift boxes by doing the daily chores, which also show up under this menu. Gaining these perks and spinning the wheel daily should prevent you from running out of energy faster.
