Is there a minimum number of players needed in your division in order to get the daily mini? I finally won a Sunday, which was my last day to get, but nothing. I feel like I must be missing something obvious, like getting my dates mixed.

Looking at the list of winners, it seems you won on Saturday, not Sunday, agony, so maybe you have muddled up the days? It's easily done with time differences.

Yes, that's exactly what happened.


Sigh, I'm never gonna get that Sunday.... I've won other days multiple times, but the sports questions always kill me.

Think of all those lovely upgrades you're getting, though!

I feel your pain - I'm in the same boat. Sports is my second-worst category (video games is the worst).

Persevere. I had the first six done rather quickly but I was in my fourth year when I snagged the Sunday badge.

I actually got them all pretty quickly (in my terms) - a run of luck, as I don't usually do all that well. It's a matter of luck how long it takes you to get a set you can really work with. And the best players give it a miss. wink

I was stuck on 4 days won for years but recently picked up the two I thought I’d never get, Thursday and Friday! Now just Monday to go, never thought Monday would cause me an issue and surely it’s only a matter of time. Been second place on Monday many times!
