I have won Level 21 several times but it does not progress???????????????

I've been playing Majjong  Candy and made the leaderboard twice this morning, but my score won't show there. I'm logged in. This has never happened before, but it's just another downgrade to the games page on this site, combined with the annoying banner and slow load times.

Has anyone else questioned how points are awarded in this little crossword?  I finish it, correctly, no typos, in 9 to 10 seconds. Sometimes 7 seconds.  I still end up with 20,000 to 30,000 points less than the high for the day.  It's not a big deal.  I'm not a math genius by any means.  Just curious if anyone else has noticed.  

I just wanted to post it here because it's the only way I'll ever prove that I finally made it to the very top of the leaderboard.  I got screenshots, too, not that this community board will let me insert them.  No, I'm not bitter. NOT AT ALL.  This happened to me before a year or so ago, and my complaints eventually got a result of "We will temporarily allow high scores of over 100K." By which time other people had beat my record.  I'm beginning to see why the best players eventually abandon this game for something else...

Get ready to launch, flip, and score! Hoop Havoc is here, and it's bringing a whole new kind of arcade energy to AARP Games. It’s pinball meets basketball and you’ve got one mission: keep that clock alive.  Tap or click to power the flipper and send balls flying toward the hoop. Sink a basket to reset the timer, adjust your tap strength for finesse shots, and don’t forget: shots that fall back through the hoop still count! It’s easy to jump in and chase a new high score, so don’t delay – warm up and play!    Have more questions?  Check out our FAQ and Game Tip!   Did you find this post helpful?

It started with that thoroughly obnoxious rug ad that looked like a La Brea tar pit. Now we have models stalking back and forth or shaking their fists or doing whatever it is they're doing to the right of the game that I'm attempting to play. It's impossible to concentrate on the game when the screen to the right is in constant motion. I often just stop in the middle of the game and go elsewhere. Ads before you get a score are bad enough. Ads that purposely distract you while you're attempting to play are to me a bridge too far. I am so sorry that AARP is a party to this. I realize that sites need advertising, but at least members should be free from these terrible ads.

It is really annoying to not earn rewards for solving puzzles quickly.I used to try to see how quickly I could solve Codeword.  I eventually realized I needed to just wait to put in the last letter until at least 2:30 minutes had past.There is the same problem with Scramble Words.  I just solved it quickly, including a whole bunch of extra words that weren't even targets, and scored my highest ever, over 32,000, and yet, did not reveice any rewards.You are penalized for solving quickly.  This is not at all fair.

Joined AARP 6 weeks ago and started earning points from rewards program easily.  On day one I attempted to redeem points for rewards offers.  Got the dreaded Cannot process your Request  Contacted AARP same day.  Given the usual runaround including the 10 day period for AARP to investigate.  On day 11 still with no progress I chatted with them again expressing my desire to redeem my points that I was now accruing of course daily.  Told me hey were still investigating and to give it 3 more days  On now the 14th day I was told the 3 day did not count and I had to wait another 10 days but the last 3 days were part of it.  Of course this escalation is going nowhere and I was actually told they had no timeline as to when I would be able to redeem my points.  I asked them why I should continue to be a PAID member if I cannot enjoy ALL the benefits of the program.  They said there are "many" benefits I could access.  I explained how the r

Anybody else having a problem with the balls not rolling correctly?

Good evening, I have been noticing the  Win $26,000 Sweepstakes and I decided to give this a try.  However, after several attempts, the error message comes up as "Bad Request"  I see the rules for entering the sweepstakes but there is no way to actually  ENTER.  Please advise the solution for this occurrence.    I, for one, would like to participate in these contests that AARP offers.  Thank you, Karen D Jennings

In Hoop Havoc, using the flipper well is the name of the game, and prevents you from time-wasting, all-over-the-place shots. Keep in mind when playing that short taps give you low, controlled shots, perfect for quick baskets when the clock is tight. Also, try angling for bounce-backs! Shots that fall back through the hoop count, giving you surprise timer resets.    Did you find this post helpful? Give it a kudo to let us know - it helps others discover valuable content too!

Yes, you can finesse your shots by tapping or clicking with more or less intensity.   Is there sound control? Yes. You can toggle volume on or off from the main menu screen.   Where can I see my best score? Your best score and most recent score are displayed on the main menu.   Is the game timed? Yes. You start with limited time, and each basket resets the clock.   Can I play on mobile devices? Yes, Hoo

To make sure you get points on Codeword, wait until all the confetti has fallen, then wait another moment, and then submit your score.

Why does the game keep freezing and then suddenly end?

once again these messages are grayed out for replying.  Lucky for those who get to reply.

What is Crosswordle? Crosswordle is a daily word puzzle game where you fill in a grid using logic and vocabulary skills. Each row must be a valid word, and each column must also form a valid word. The challenge lies in making all the words fit together correctly.   How do I play? You’ll start with a grid and a few clues. Use the clues to guess valid words for each row. As you fill in the grid, make sure the columns also form valid words. You’ll receive feedback on each guess to help guide your next move.   Do I need to solve the puzzle in a specific order? No – you can start with any row or column. However, it’s often helpful to begin with the rows that have the most clues or confirmed letters. These will give you a better chance of solving the rest of the grid.   Can I play more than the daily puzzle? Yes! Crosswordle offers access to an unlimited practice mode.   Is there a time limit? No – you can take as long as you need to solve each puzzle. Crosswordle is desi

 I really don't enjoy looking at the daily scores but I can't help it as they are emblazoned in big type face. I play to relax and I'm not competitive but seeing some of these scores I begin to question my cognitive skills. I know I'm not stupid but I wish they could have a setting to hide those. 

Since reward redemption came back I was only able to redeem a sweepstakes request the first day.  Since then I get the following error message "Unable to process your redemption request".  Are others having the same problem?
