    Based on my check-ins (and the fact that I don't have the badge yet) it seems like previous visits to a "Bowling Alley" don't count for this badge. Either that, or it needs to be 3 separate Bowling Alleys
  • BeerknurdBeerknurd August 2011
    I believe it is 3 bowling alley's over a 3 day period. I think they need to be consecutive days.
  • TymoraTymora August 2011
    I got it using the same bowling alley but it does have to be over a 3 day period. I don't remember if they were consecutive or not. This is a core badge which means there isn't really a "previous checkin" factor. The checkins usually have to be at the very least within the same 60 days.

    Hi @JR1 many tanks for the update of the possible to upgrade the badge. I have question on upgrading the level, does it takes check in counted or we have to follow 3 consequtive separate days to level up for this 7-11 split badge for example? tanks

    Unlock instructions updated to reflect new "level up" ability
  • iamciamc March 2012
    I'm unable to level up past 3 on this one. Following the instructions, getting points. Anyone else had a problem?
  • BeerknurdBeerknurd March 2012

    Make sure that all of the venues are categorized as Bowling Alley's.
  • JerkrattJerkratt March 2012
    Thought it had to be 5 different venues per lvl.
  • iamciamc March 2012
    Thanks @Beerknurd. Every venue was a Bowling Alley and I got points. I got stuck at level 3 a few months ago. Tried again last night since it was kinda quiet for badges right now, and still no luck.
    I'll level up my remaining expertise then come back to this one last I guess.
  • RainWave23RainWave23 March 2012
    Were they unique bowling alleys? It has to be ones you haven't checked into before.
  • iamciamc March 2012
    Yes, def unique. I made sure each one had no check-ins by me previously. I've even been in diff cities. Weird, huh?
  • BeerknurdBeerknurd March 2012
    @iamc I have hit levels 6 and 7 today. About to get 8. How are you searching for the venues? There are alot of places with bowling alley in the name, but are not actually categorized as a bowling alley. I use a computer when doing these. I go to the foursquare site, and search for bowling. I just go down the list. Once I pull up a venue, I just change the web address from https://foursquare.com/v/ten-pin-heaven/4e5c33beaeb7a6ca53de6c5d to https://m.foursquare.com/v/ten-pin-heaven/4e5c33beaeb7a6ca53de6c5d

    Add a m. right before the foursquare.com

    I have never had a problem leveling badges
  • iamciamc March 2012
    EXACTLY that way. Haven't had problems with other expertise badges, just this one. It makes no sense!
  • RainWave23RainWave23 March 2012
    Clearly foursquare is playing games with you lol
  • iamciamc March 2012
    Me thinks so too lol
