Spread them out through the week. - Create a simple plan for which challenges you’ll finish first to avoid rushing at the end. - Pair Merit challenges with weekly, personal, or Mix‑n‑Match badges in the same game. - Premium challenges can help you finish faster if you’re short on time. - Remember that Pogo events are meant to be fun – complete them at your own pace. --- Source: [Goldsmithing Merit Badge Event](https://pogofans.com/goldsmithing-merit-badge-event/)
