UPDATE4 Nov 2018 (revised server closure date): Servers are due for closure on 28 February 2019. Thanks to Curtieson for adding the details below regarding unlocking this on both platforms...
Curtieson said:Since they have added to the server closure timeline, please add to your solution at the top that under the current version if you unlock this on Win8/10 PC that it will unlock as soon as you open the app on your phone. Just play a couple hands on each when you are in your high 90s to make sure both versions are all up to date. UPDATE: Since the 13/01/15 update, the glitch detailed below no longer works. But thanks to comments from the awesome TA community, seems the achievement might pop if you have played the game previously. Comments state it has popped when gamers are as low as level 51, and also never having played the WP version. Be sure to boot up the game before this glitch is also patched.
If you are just starting out, also refer to Musquito's walkthrough & NevrSurrender's solution as well for hints, tips & general info regarding this achievement.
***ORIGINAL GUIDE***
For hints, tips & general info regarding this achievement, please check out Musquito's walkthrough & NevrSurrender's solution above. The only thing I would add to their solutions is add everyone you play against as a friend. The reason for this is everyone can send 5 random gifts every day. The more friends you have, the more likely you are to receive gifts. By the time I got to level 100, I had 400 unclaimed gifts & 97 unused tokens.
You need a minimum 101,837 XP to reach level 100 (Thanks CrippleThreat8)
GLITCH WHICH NO LONGER WORKS
*** Spoiler - click to reveal ***Please be aware, this is a glitch that will allow you to use all boosts in every game you play. It will NOT ensure you win every game, but gives you a massive advantage. I went from having a 30% win rate to over 90%, finishing with 375 wins from 450 games.
Start up the app and as soon as the Play button appears, click it. The "start-up lag" makes all the boosts cost 0 coins. Buy every bonus then start the game. You will now have the advantage of every boost. Once the game is over, go back to the main menu then quit (Alt-F4 or red x top right corner). If you quit out of the app too quickly, your coins & tokens (if you win) may not appear. Restart, rinse & repeat.
This glitch works in both Windows 8 (thanks NBA Kirkland) & Windows 8.1.
Notes/tips for using your boosts:
- Because I was quitting out after every game, I repeatedly got the challenge "Challenge a missed Uno" so just be aware of that while going for the 50 challenge achievement if you want more variation
- Every time I swapped my hand at the beginning of the game, the reshuffle gave me at least one Wild card
- Some games will take longer than usual because of the amount of cards you force opponents to draw (mirror & overdraw boosts)
- Once an opponent is holding 8+ cards, you cannot see the numbers, only the colour. Once they are holding 15+, you will struggle to see any of the cards, incl Wilds
- If another player had the boosts activated, I backed out & started another game because in my experience, those games took too long to play
No amount of negative votes will see me delete this. Boys gonna hate!
For those who use this, hopefully helped you out. Thanks & enjoy.
