Would TC be interested in a round of bingo?
yes, I will do just about anything to avoid my household chores. :)
Absolutely! Me! Pick Meeee!!!!!Now we really have a thread that's a game and not just one that sounds like we're playing a game but is really just about dead celebrities.
Jesus, Barb. Get in! You'll figure it out as we go along, I'm sure.
1. I list 50 words based on a category. A category could be for example "dead celebrities." Yes, let's use dead celebrities because I think that's what I'm gonna go with. Thanks, Gretchen!2. From that list of 50 names, you pick 15 and post your 15. The reason why everyone posts their 15 is so just in case someone calls bingo, I can go and check and make sure it's not a false alarm.
3. Each day, I'm gonna post 5 random names. Think of it as the bingo caller shouting out the numbers.
4. The first person to have all of their names "called" is the winner. Then that winner is going to PM me their address, and I will send them a prize.
Or we can do it with everyone sending a winner the prize, I've played it that way too.
I hope that clears things up.
Is your hair light brown or dark brown, Barb?
I'm in, but I may be out of touch for a day or two while we are traveling....I'll do my best to keep up and if I can't I'll jump in on the next round :)
i want to play, but i'm not sure you're willing to send a prize halfway across the globe. i'm just in for the fun.
Alright, last call. So we've got:Mona
Barb
Gretchen
Janine
Alecia
ms. petra
Sally
If anyone else is playing, speak up before 8pm EST 'cause that's when I'm posting the list of 50 Dead Celebrities.
i just remembered i won't be back here until monday or tuesday, so i'm out again.
Mod
I've got a fork and a bingo dauber ready to go.
Haha, Sally. I'm about to run out, but when I get back...I think I'm gonna go ahead and post the names. Once everyone has chosen and posted their names, then we can start.
What are you going to do with the fork? Can I sniff your dauber?

Mod
Alright, here is a list of 50 dead celebrities, authors, musicians, actors, actresses, etc. May they all rest in peace. Now, pick your 15 and post them here. Once everyone has their list, I will use a random number generator to "call" 5 names a day. The first one with all 15 names "called" is the winner!1.

I'm sorry, Gretchen. That wasn't my intention. :(Sally, usually when I play, I keep a Word file that I use to check off my list.
Oh I was TOTALLY 100% joking around. You didn't make me feel like a dumbass. I AM a dumbass. It takes a lot more than that to get my panties in a bunch. (I'm amused by my dumbassedness.)
Oh I find everyone's dumb ass funny. ;)

Dom DeLuise is turning over in his grave at being called Don.
I just put the names on some note paper and posted it near my monitor so I can check them off as we go.

I've done this on other forums, and it's worked out pretty well. Based on a category, I'll list 50 names/words, and a player chooses 15 and lists those 15 in the thread. Each day, I'll choose 5 of those words (I'll probably number the words for my reference and use an online random number generator) and list them. The first one to have all 15 chosen is the winner!
And there is a prize! It's not a fabulous prize, but it's a prize!
Is anyone interested?
