The formatting on my last post was just awful (I didn't expect it to be so bad), so here's the short version on how to get the badge: Go into Pre-Set mode and skip every wave ASAP. Repeat the level (while skipping every wave) until you get to 100 pirate kills.

The badge finally works! If you haven't gotten it yet, here's an easy and quick way to get it:
First, enter the Pre-Set mode
When you get in there, close all of the tutorials and click the Next button as fast as you can (It's near the bottom right corner of the screen)
You will always have enough defenses in Pre-Set mode to survive every wave, even if they all come at once
Repeat the level (and the above steps) until you kill 100 total pirates

Got the BOTD, got the Kongpanion, listening to the Pirate Song, all is right with the Universe! Now all I need are some stickers ... arrgh, shiver me timbers ;-)

I wish they'd made the call to rollback the block update when it was already shown to be broken yesterday, and taken it back for fixes. I have no interest in the chat stickers, I just wanna catch 'em all.. And when I go to the /kongpanions page I see that I already have a checkmark on this badge from when I got it long ago, so it's not even like they lost my badge progress here. It just doesn't show up on the actual game page during the day that it's the BotD.

Ohh-Nooo!!2 days 2 different Games (that didn't play right) - Already had the acquired badges for both! But I still haven"t gotten the Kongpanian - ROSE!! This week is messing-up my 'Shinys'!!! Only 5 days left....

"What can you do with blocks"? Apparently, mess up BOTD, that's what you can do with them. It's a solid 4\5 game btw. Sad that the reaction this (and yesterdays) game is mostly frowning upon Kongregate ability on rolling out this new content.

I managed to complete the "I Won! I Won! At Pirate Defense Badge" requirement, 'Completed The 101' game mode, and the game neither ended nor awarded me the achievement. I completed all 101 waves, taking about an hour and a half.
I noticed sprites popping around the screen when I got near round 70. The game started to chug and go slow, and I noticed enemies walking straight through barriers and turrets, as well as getting stuck immobile on the tiles you could put on the floor (lures, triggers, and a 'hot coal' tile). The turrets did not seem to attack these 'frozen' enemies, and they seemed to be fixed when I removed the tile from under them. For that, I can't really rate this high. What is the point of a badge that doesn't work?

Haven't been on in weeks, came in to play the BotD, seems like I just need to leave Kong. Flash is dying and Kartridge is a money sucking joke. I will miss the fun times on this site!

The trick is to just layer empty spaces in the map with lures. They can go all the way on the bottom and the top, so just layer them. Also, have two paths at least, so that when someone is near the finish, you can plop a box down and be forced to crawl back around to the other side.

KONG,
Fix your shit. I have a shiny streak going back to Christmas.
If you don't fix it, I will go full Liam Neeson. (Yes, two ees!?, I looked it up.)
If you are looking for blocks participation, I can tell you I don't care. But what I do have is a very particular set of daily visits, daily visits I have acquired over a very long career. Daily visits that make me a cash cow for people like you. If you let my badges register now, that'll be the end of it. I will visit you, I will play you. But if you don't, I will shun you, I will shake my fist at you, and I will ghost you.

Kong's response: We are experiencing a site wide lag issue right now where we are unable to award badges of the day. We are also aware that users cannot report missing achievements, and we hope to have these features fixed soon. We will award you the badge as soon as we are able to use our tools again. We thank you for your understanding!

Everything was going great. With every passing stage, the achievement progress crept up ever so slightly. Until I hit 97 kills. At that point, progression towards 100 halted to a stop, which is why I shall never earn the badge of this day.

I'm sad ... since last week the "badge of the day" don't work ... I lost my kongpanion from last week, I had them all. And this week ... it looks like it will be the same. :w:

In my case I got a human response. Unfortunately they cant help right now, since they cant access their admin tools. But they promise to award all missing badges as soon the problem are resolved. In the meantime I got an ad for how I can use blocks to boost my games, by adding badgebountys. Priorities I guess.

Eh, I got my e-mail delivered without issues. Still null result, but at least bot responded me with usual corporate nonsene, so there's that, I guess...

I am very disappointed that this Kongregate screw up with the BotD has cast a shadow over what should be great comments about this fun little game! I mean, the win song alone deserves 5 stars!! Love it!! "I won, I won, at Pirate Defense!!!"

This got to be the first week ever to not get a Kongpanion on the first day, i already emailed support and no answer or solution, this is terrible.

The same, achievement done yesterday, today I repeated the game in case it was necessary to do it again for the new reward and ... it does not mark my achievement today, but I have done it yesterday :_(
