Okay, I've been trying to figure out how this game is played. I see the lists of words submitted, then eventually words sent back out. Could you explain the rules and how the game works? I'd love to play! :up:

Also, for suggestions:

How about past winners of: Emmy's, Golden Globes, Oscars, Music Awards, etc? Actor/Actress Celebrities of the 20's, 30's, 40's?

What about Calendar Dates (there are 365 and you only need 120??)? Like Jan 21, June 12th -- although that might be kinda boring.
:wink:

Every month we pick a topic and play Bingo.

1. List is posted previous month , you pick 25 words from the list and send it
to the person running the game for the next month. Deadline is 11:59PM
of the last day of the month BEFORE the game begins. You will receive a
confirmation that your list is received, if not contact caller to make sure
they have received it BEFORE the game starts.

2. Each day a list of 5 random picked words or grouping of words is posted.

3. Mark off any words from your list that have been posted.

4. Once you have ALL 25 WORDS, you type "BINGO"!!! The first one to post
is the winner.

5. One person, who volunteers, will send the winner a prize. Price range
(to include shipping) to be between $5.00-$10.00.

6. YOU ARE TO HAVE TONS OF LAUGHS AND FUN!!!!!!! NO GRUMPS
