Instead of making full new posts to cover certain issues this week, I’ve been stashing updates in the comments of various pre-existing posts. I don’t do this very often, so I figured I’d give you a round-up of sorts that will cover the important points. I call it, “It Came From the Comments!” (Kind of fun for a spooky October, right?)
So here are a few tidbits of information you may want to know about, but may have missed this week:
- There is no Lucky Leprechaun or Midget Grasshopper in Riddle O’Day…but boy, that would sure be fun!
- Unlike other games on Big Sea, SnowGlobe Slots doesn’t have a traditional Jackpot Spin, but you can still earn a ton of tokens if you get the right combo on the reels.
- SnowGlobe Slots starts defaulted with the sound muted. To turn it on, use the speaker icon in the upper right-hand corner. (That’s where you can find a button for the pay tables, too.)
- Big Fish Slots got an update this week that fixed a bunch of problems.
- And last, but not least, I just want to say that the Owl Country Club course in Fairway Solitaire is really, really tough and apparently it’s got a mean streak, too. (Sorry, Charlie! I just had to mention it.)
Stay tuned for an upgraded hints and tips guide to Big Fish Slots (the old one is a little outdated now that Big Sea has tweaked the gameplay with the re-release) and as usual, more news, rumors, and information about Big Sea Games. :)

No problem Lure – don’t mind you mentioning it. Haven’t calmed down enough to go back to that course yet though – been playing in other games instead.
I gave Owl Country Club another try today. It was looking good until about hole 12, then it was all downhill from there. Sigh. So, so difficult!
Not sure if this is the right place or not, but noticed in the comments on BS in the Riddle forum, Firestorm mentioned in a post today something about new creatures added already in Riddle. Not sure what they are, and was not sure if you had mentioned it yet here or not.
Hi Shyanne! We have a list of all of the critters here:
http://www.bigseafans.com/2009/08/27/riddle-oday-creatures-list/
Firestorm was, I believe, referring to the new creatures added with the beta launch in August, as opposed to any “newer” creatures, and also as opposed to the “old” creatures from the Riddle in the Big Fish Game Community — we’ve got a list of those way deep in the archives too. I’m pretty sure if there were something truly new, we would have heard about it pretty quickly on this site, probably as fast as the “Lucky Leprechaun” was reported.
lure since the last update to bigsea I can play all the games now no trouble at all found that out when I went to play snow globe so been on bigsea playing all my favorites waiting on looking glass to come back
saw that you have 138 awards nice going lure
Thanks dee! I’m glad you’re able to play without trouble now. Welcome back! :)
Thanks Lure, figured that out last night, thought she may have been referring to the new version. Since I am new to BS I had totally forgot there was an older version. I have won all the awards except the FQ, played for almost 2 months and never saw her ………. then yesterday I found her twice! In the morning within 5 mins. I got the FQ, RF, FK and a big JP spin, plus 60,000+ in the TC! Then went back to play that evening and found the FQ again! LOL, was my lucky day!
Shyanne: you are VERY lucky! I’ve got about 30 boggarts to find yet, and that FQ only made her trip to the forest once while I was playing! I just keep getting distracted by the lower-hanging fruit of other easily obtained awards in other games! :)
Hey mf, did you see the forum posting on what I thought was a glitch in round 1 for BF Slots & Draddog’s response that it’s not a glitch, but a design feature? Looks like there is a change to the strategy now when Bruce (those of us that know him well, refer to him by his nickname, vice his given name ;)…lol) makes a visit during round 1 since he just replaces the bubbles and DOESN’T reset the board anymore…might be an important change when you are updating your BF Slots tips section.
Nice change to the site…congrats on the new server…thanks for all the great info!!!
lure, please pick a snowglobe room and stay with it. It is a royal pain in the *&^%^$ to go through the rooms one by one, attempting to find you and then… not find you
Um, creepy! J/k! :) I have a ton of friends on BSG so I tend to play in a lot of different rooms to be with them all. Don’t worry if you can’t find me now Jake, you’ll be able to “stalk” me all you want when they finally fix friend locations in the friends list. Hehe! :)
b3achy: I’ll be sure to add that for the round 1 info. It’s something I noticed too, but didn’t feel like reporting it as a ‘bug’ because I was pleasantly surprised at how it worked. :)
Lure – good luck with finding the FQ in riddle – once you have the award it seems that she appears more frequently. It took me daily visits since the new site was launched until 2 days ago to find her for the 3rd time and also found her in each of the two following days. A friend has had a similar experience of waiting ages for the third and then finding others very quickly – so play in riddle a bit more and you could find the same thing.
They still need to fix the jackpot spin in Team Bingo. I had badda twice today and never did get a jackpot spin. Also the game is much slower than the old version.
LOL I just saw another rumor flying around, that there’s a “Midget Grasshopper” worth 100,000 points. It’s hard not to crack up at these things, but let me make it clear for everyone:
There is no Midget Grasshopper in Riddle O’Day.
There was a recent update to Riddle O’Day that included the following “We have added more places for creatures to appear.” This does not mean they have added new creatures, it just means the existing creatures can show up in different places on your game screen.
The end… until the next rumor pops up. :)
