How to unlock the There Goes a Supernova achievement in Bejeweled Blitz LIVE - Definitive Guide

Very simple to do, must be done in twist mode with a specific screen layout. I will try to describe by showing pattern on screen where you have 3 colours labeled R, G and B and then any other colour besides these three, labeled O. Set up the following layout with the bottom line being at the bottom of the screen

O O R R O O
O O G G O O
O O B B O O
R R B G R R


Now twist the 4 in the middle clockwise, see below:

G G---------> B G
B B ---------> B G

and the two vertical 3s will dissappear causing the 2 'R's to cascade down and make a 6.

Since you can move gems wherever you like, it is rather straightforward, just watch out for unwanted cascades!

I had been thinking of how to do this for days, and then it hit me when I was going to bed, woke up the next day, and got it my first game :-)

I know there is a solution already but thought I would add this one up as an alternative 6 gem match construction. Basically I followed this pattern for the gem setup...

A
A - B
BB
A
A - C
CC
A
A

So you have 2 or 3 different gem colours allocated to A, B and C with any other gem filling in the gaps as long as they don't cause a stray match, B and C can be the same.

The idea is to then make a match so that the raised B and C drop into place matching them and causing the 6 A's to drop into place.

The achievement will unlock once the gem is used.

Thanks a million. I couldn't for the life of me figure out how to do this. It took about 10 times and then my time was up before I could use my gem and I was SO mad, but thankfully everything explodes at the end after "time up" and it poped. :D

Never thought of doing it vertically, always did it horizontally.

Just got to level 50 yesterday, and can honestly say this had never occurred to me

All these solutions are great but after about 100+ games of only getting 30,000 - 100,000 points I decided to check out the leaderboards replays. So this is what I found the best way to level up with 0 skill at all. First create 2 lightning gems and stack them on top of each other on the bottom of the screen. They must be created like this...
X - Extra gems
C - Same Color gems
L - Lightning gems

xxxxCxxx
xCCxCCx
xxxCxxx
xxxCxxx

Highlight the bold gems and flip to the right (A) this will connect all the gems together creating 2 lightning gems. You should also get an achievement for connecting 7 gems at once. Once you have the 2 lightning gems move them to the bottom and stack them up like this...

xxxxxxx
xxxLxxx
xxxLxxx

Now create 1 more lightning gem by using the same color as the lightning gems you just made.

x xxxx
xCCxC
xxxCx
xxxCx

Again highlight the bold gems and turn to the right to connect the 2 gems to the left and the 2 gems on the bottom. This will make 1 more Lightning gem so move it right over the 2 other ones but make sure there is 1 extra gem in between or you will set it off and ruin everything. It should look something like this....

G - The gem in between the 3 lightning gems.

xxLxx
xxGxx
xxLxx
xxLxx

Now use whatever color is in between the gems is (G) and match it up with 2 more of the same colors. This will drop the lightning gem on top and connect the 2 on the bottom. It will look something like this...

xxLxx
xxGGxG
xxLxx
xxLxx

Once you connect the G on the right with the 2 in the middle immediately start mashing the A button as fast as you can while also moving your cursor to the bottom right of the screen. You will get a huge combo anywhere from 300,000 - 2,500,000 every game. I got this achievement in just a few hours doing this method. Watch the video below for a better idea on what I'm talking about.


Also I know this guide may be a bit confusing to read if you're new to the game or it might just be too confusing to read for everybody but I tried to explain it the best I could. If you want to help out by leaving a comment on how I can make this better please do so. Good luck

FYI, the two lightning gems do not count for this achievement. Has to be 6 in a row.
