Big Game Hunter question

You have to have completed the questline to the same point and I believe also have tapped a certain number of animals to activate Big Claw ... are your pelt counts the same across all 3 towns? Are you at the same point in the questline?

I'm at the same point in the quest line in all 3 towns. Other than the payout from the triple tap I have the exact same amount of pelts. My #1 game is 10 pelts down (the amount I would get for doing Big Game Hunter a second time if it would kick in). The first time it hit I had 19 pelts in all 3 games, but it didn't come up in game 1 for at least an hour after the other 2.

Well, I'm out of ideas then :p

Well I finally got Big Claw for a second time in game 1, then immediately hit BC a third time in game 3 - but not game 2.
So now I have the same number of pelts in games 1 and 2, but 10 more in game 3.

One of my 5 games has dragged behind the others in acquiring pelts, but I'll finish the quest in that game today anyway just a few hours behind the others.
