At BingoMania, we like it when you do all the work. We get to read the paper, eat chocolate, throw paper planes and generally loll around. Which is how it should be. So, here’s your chance to get your brains wiggling and come up with a new idea for Friday night.

See, we have a bit of a confession. We’ve deliberately not set up this week’s voting for the Friday night party. Just to see your reaction.

Silence is golden, they say. Well, we think silence is a sort of off-yellow, swirly brown carpet teamed with mauve curtains. Yep, nobody misses those once-rockin’ Friday nights. Our Party has lost its mojo.

So, put those thinking caps back on and send us your ideas. You’ll be rewarded with a warm smile and a thank you bonus. But only if they’re any good : )

   How about holding tournies similar to the Valentine 1. I dont get on to play bingo as often as I would like to anymore but I really enjoyed the valentine tourney and am sure others did to.

   Just an idea.

   Good luck to all xx

   yes a partners tourney would be good but you pick the partners as peeps come in and that means no ooc can play, that will get everyone together and we get to meet peeps we havent met befor Barbara xx

   Hi, yes re: Friday parties. Silly games I think would be a good idea. With no neighbour games as that gets too confusing for the GM when room is busy. I’m sure your team can come up with some silly games as they all have a good imagination. Or just a variation of games we already play e.g. choose a number and two others that be divided by it e.g. 3, 9, 27 or 4, 12 16 but some really silly games would be best if anyone can think of some.

    Somehting different with a party theme? Bingo cards where the ‘bingo’ is called on a party hat design card, or a cracker card, or poppe, Champagne flute- or any simmilar design -hope you get my drift.

    Re Mothers Day - Revenge is sweet what about covering those errant dads in the stickiest substance you can find - only proviso is it has to be washable and they have to do the laundry - it will let them know how much they had better remember it by another year - they wont want to be stuck in syrup or chocolate spread again! Mind and get the kids to doit if you dont want a row on your hands or worse still a divorce!

    No matter whats decided Happy bingoing to all

    Bring back the monthly tourneys - with the special pattern - least then the pound room pjp might go - cos the only time that went was when hank won it on the prize pattern. coverall in 46 or under is almost impossable

    All around, great suggestions! Thank you everyone.

    “pansy123, omgnone” I thought our Valentine’s Day team bingo would be a popular suggestion. We’re looking into this … thx!

    “annajack” - 1tg games sound like a fun alternative to jazz-up a bingo session. Going to run this by tech team and the GMs.

    “Margaret2550″ - very creative idea and I think that would add tons of excitement. I’ll need to run this by the techies. Thx.

    “EASTER BUNNY” - sounds like a good chat game idea : ) … I’ll leave that one for the GMs to think about.

    “beyondhelp” - we’re also considering the Monthly contests too … thx.

    Since a promise is a promise: here’s a warm smile : )))))) and by end of day, please find a little thank you bonus in your account for your feedback. Many thanks guys!

    I would like to see the month long tourney pattern come back. I enjoyed playing those patters and thought it was great how each win came up straight away on the home page/ comp page so you could see an updated list of what position you were in.

    i’d also like one part games to come back to the pound room

    how about dropping the percentage taken on very early games these games are not played anyway as you have to pay to much for such a small win this would keep us early birds very happy
