Level 21 Expert : To Diner Dash Pro's ....

Level 21 ( no podium or drinks/snacks) seems impossible to beat. In order to get expert I need at least 9000 points. The best I can do is get at 7000.

I've been chaining all the time and keeping everyone happy, but it's just that I'm not able to do enough of color matching for bonus points because there's not enough customers.

I have read this post ----> http://www.playfirst.com/forum s/thread/10616 (I've looked all over the internet and can't find any help)

It hasn''t been any help for me. I've done everything and still can only get 7000 points. This is the hardest level in the game for me while I can easily get expert in many other levels. With level 21, there is just not enough color matching to do so I can gain more points. So many of the customers are different in colors. For example I would get about just 3 couples in level 21 with two,2 of those seat tables for couples, and they are all totally different in color. One couple would be either blue/red, the next green/yellow and the last yellow/red.

I'm not sue what post you've already seen so I'll copy this for you anyways. I have 2 methods as I made some changes to the first walkthrough I posted, here's both of them. One other thing, when giving checks and clearing dishes, do not click the table twice to do both actions in one shot. Give out all the checks, and then clear all the dishes.

Level 21. Ok this is going to be one of those levels where you'll have to stop and re-start a few times. You'll have 3 rounds with 5 tables and the last round with 2 tables. you have to seat the slower people first or it won't work, just seat them in the order I list them. You have no podium or drinks so just take all the orders, pass out all the food, give checks, and clear dishes. Try to mop spills in between so you don't break your chains. For the first round start seating when the 2 bookworms arrive, seat them, 2 groups of 2 tourists, a family, and 2 girls. For the second round seat 5 tables, 4 bookworms, 2 groups of 2 lovebirds, and 2 families. For the third round seat 5 tables, 2 groups of 2 bookworms, 2 tourists, 2 girls, and a family. For the last round you have 2 tables, 2 lovebirds and a family. They are going to be upset so you'll have to clear they're tables first and get them seated as quick as you can. It took me a few tries to get this one but the more i did it, the easier it got because i got to know who was comming and where they are in line. It's usually the spills that will mess things up for you, just keep at it and you'll get it. Good luck!

Don't forget to seat and serve the slower people first, it helps everyone keep the same pace and makes chaining easier, just use the order i list them in. When the game starts you get 2 groups of 2 tourists and a family, just seat each group as they come in and do 3 tables for the first round. Do the usual routine, take orders, pass out food, give checks, and collect dirty dishes. Try to mop in between so you don't break chains, but it doesn't always work that way. For the second round do 5 tables, 2 bookworms, 4 bookworms, 2 lovebirds, 2 girls (seat the girls in a table for 2), and a family. Do the usual routine and after you pass out food you'll see you have a family and 2 lovebirds in line waiting for round 3 that are upset and need to be seated quickly. So when the family and 2 girls in round 2 finish eating, quickly give them the checks and clear their dishes. Now seat the family and 2 lovebirds for round 3, give the checks to the last 3 tables of round 2 and clear the dirty dishes, then you can seat the rest of round 3 which is 2 bookworms, 2 girls, and another family. You have to get them seated quickly and the family and 2 lovebirds will now be ready to order before everyone else, pick up their orders right away to give their heart meters a boost, but then make them wait while you take the rest of the orders. Then pass out all the food and continue on as usual. For the fourth and last round you have 4 tables, 2 bookworms, 2 lovebirds, 2 tourists, and a family. This should make things a bit easier and breaking the chains in round 2 won't affect the score any, you should still get expert. I want to make sure that you know that you don't have to wait for Flo to finish a task before you click for her to do another. Most times I click all the tables for Flo to clear dishes and as I seat the first group of the next round shes just clearing the dishes from the last tables I clicked. I think clicking things ahead of her like that makes her move a little faster. Anyhow, let me know how it goes or if you need more help. Good luck!

Thanks alot for your help, Jen. But I have taken this advice many times and it doesn't work for me. I'll keep trying however. Are there any other tips you have seen regarding this level?

Do you have any other advices for me, Jen? No matter how many long chains I make I still cannot get expert.

Do I need to keep everyone fully happy? All hearts to maximum?

I can usually keep them all 4/5 happy but not 5/5

Dashing,
Im not sure sure if I asked you already, but when you give the checks and clear dishes are you clicking the table twice to do both actions in one shot? Its quicker but its not chaining and will cost you a lot of points.

Jen

Hi there Jen, thanks for taking the time to help me out with this aggravating level. Yes I'm clicking 2 times, actually three times.

For the first level I'm doing five tables (3 tables are at top, 2 at bottom)

Starting with the top row, I seat the bookworms first (at the far left side table)

Next I seat the green/yellow tourists way at the far right table (after they are done I seat the green/green couple)

Next I seat the red/blue tourists in the middle between the bookworms and the green/yellow tourists

For the bottom, I seat the family (blue/yellow/red) way at the bottom (last table)

Then I seat the red/blue girls right above the family on the bottom

I chain 2 tables together at a time for orders/serves/cleanups, the 5th table I just do separately.

Now that everyone at the first round is done, I'm on to round 2 to start seating another 5 ....

For the first row, the 4 bookworms (red-green/blue-yellow take the seats of the previous two bookworms.

The red/yellow couple takes the seats of the red/blue tourists

Then the green/green couple takes the seat far right of the previous green/yellow couple

For the bottom ...
A family takes the seats of the red/blue girls (the family is blue/red/green

Another family sits below them in the last table. They're blue/green/yellow

Once again I chain 2 tables together at a time for orders/serves/cleanups, the 5th table I just do separately.

On to the 3rd round I take the next 5

For the very top row from the far left, I seat the red/green tourists in place of the previous 4 bookworms who were red/green/yellow/blue

The blue/blue bookworms seat in place of the previous red/yellow couple

The green/red books worms sit next to them at the far right which were previous seats of the green/green couple

At the bottom the red/blue girls takes seat of the previous family who were blue/red/green

Below them at the last table I seat a family who is blue/green/yellow, previously there was a family of blue/green/yellow as well

Once again I chain 2 tables together at a time for orders/serves/cleanups, the 5th table I just do separately.

On to the final round I take the last two .. a family and couple

I seat the red/red/blue family in place of the previous blue/green/yellow family

Then I seat the red/blue couple in seat of the previous blue/blue bookworms

This level has done nothing but embarrassed me, I think I would probably just give it up if I don't get expert by the time the next diner dash arrives.

Dashing,
I'm on a different computer and I don't have the game on this one. I need to check the game because there are some things that don't make sense, that I will get back to you about. For now there are some other things we can try. Why are you serving one table separate from the rest? You really don't want to do that, if you have 5 tables you want to seat them all, then take orders from all 5 tables, give food to all 5 tables, give checks to all 5 tables, and collect dishes from all 5 tables. If you take orders and give food to the slower people first, it will help them keep pace with the others so they're all ready at the same time. First seat any bookworms, then lovebirds, tourists, girls and then families. Now make sure the first orders you take are from the bookworms and lovebirds, then tourists, girls and families. Make sure you use the same order when you pass out food. Even if the family and girls put down their menus, wait for the bookworms and lovebirds to get their order first, as long as you sat them first, they won't take long. The other thing is that you cannot click the table twice to give the check and clear dishes in one shot, it is not chaining and will cost you a lot of points. You must give all tables just their checks, then clear dishes from all tables. These things alone should help you, but let me know if your still having problems, good luck!

Jen
