I love calling the Christmas Bingo game!!!
It gives me the opportunity to give our members a chance to get themselves a nice Christmas Gift, and also support one of our TSC Hobbyists or Artisans (see below).
What do I mean?
This Game's winner will receive a $25 gift certificate to the TSC Hobbyist or TSC Artisan of their choice. But wait..... it could get better.
We need more players! If we can get the sign-up list past 10 players (easy, right?), then the Gift certificate will be for $50! But wait, it could get even better!!
If we can get 5 new players (1st or 2nd time players), and push the sign up list past 15 players, then you will be playing for a GC for $100!!!
And if we can get past 20 players in this game...... well, I don't know, but something very special will be on the way to the winner!
So Read the rules, sign up below, then tag everyone you know!
Rules for Game 67
1. Sign-ups are open today. You may still sign up after the game starts (if you want to play catch up). The first call will take place on Monday, 9 December 2024. Cards will be sent out by the 8th of December via PM.
2. You must be a TSC member in good standing, with at least 1 meaningful post.
3. Spirited banter is highly encouraged, but please be a gentleman/lady in all interactions.
4. Calls will NOT be The Standard American Bingo Hall calls. The calls will be words or phrases, related to Winter and the Holiday Season. The Call-List will not be published. (The seasoned player should be able to easily derive the call list once their card is received and work with the other players to ensure everyone has what they need.)
5. There will be 5 calls per day (based on the Central Time Zone) unless otherwise noted (Weekends included). The calls will be found in one of Spider's posts/activities for the given day, anywhere within the TSC Forum.
6. The calls can occur in a variety of ways:
- Plain Text calls, typed directly or hidden within a post.
- Photo, Video, numeric, code, alternate Languages, or graphic representation of calls may be employed.
- Calls may be encoded or hidden in puzzles, requiring the player to decode or solve to determine the actual call. (If at any point you are stumped, please talk with the other players (Start a Consortium). If, after that you are still stumped, you may contact the caller to resolve any questions.)
- Additional tips/tricks/hints can be found in the following thread: (BINGO SECRETS REVEALED)
8. To win, you will need to see a Snowflake (No, not that kind of snowflake, like an actual ice crystal formation that falls from the sky.... See below for winning pattern). Once you believe you have a bingo you must type "TSC BINGO" in this thread. The first person to call TSC BINGO wins the game (There are no ties). Then you must submit a photo of your card in this thread, for verification by the caller, before it is official. If it is not a good Bingo, play will resume. There will be a winner on (or before) 23 December, so that it is complete before Christmas.
9. The winner of this game will receive the following:
- The highly coveted Bingo Wizard Badge and bragging rights!
- The honor of being the caller of the next Bingo game (to be started within 4 weeks of winning--no bogarting the badge!).
- An additional prize may be offered at the discretion of the caller (callers are not required to offer a prize)
- The winner will receive a $25 gift certificate (at a minimum, see above) to a TSC Hobbyist or Vendor of their Choice.
- Brands to Markets
- CBL Premium Shave Soap
- ETHOS Grooming Essentials
- Mystic Water Soap
- Paladin Shaving
- Stirling Soap Company
- Shawn's Forging Shed
- Straight Faced Honing and Restoration
- Super Curve Hollow Bevel Honing
- Sorrentino Brushworks
- UACowboy's Razor Restorations & 3D Printing
11. These rules must be posted by the caller before each game, edited for the specifics of their game.
12. If you have any questions, or if any rule needs clarification, let the caller know. The caller has the final say in any questions, disputes, or clarifications regarding calls/rules.
13. Have Fun! Or, Go Crazy! But..... Why Not Both??
