Jan Bingo Game

Wow, hard to believe 2007 is almost here, why not start it off with a January Bingo Game. I have chose the theme "Philodendron/Monstera". The next post will have 35 philo names to choose from and each of you will choose 15 for your card.

1. Dmail your card with 15 picks to nan(Thanks for being my cardholder) by December 31st - be sure to double check your cards that you have 15 different calls, as it is not the cardholder responsiblility to do this.
2. Game will begin on January 2nd with calls weekdays only.
3. Number of calls will vary daily. It willd depend entirely on how I feel that particular day. It will keep you checking in.

1st Prize - $40 Gift Certificate (Thanks to Cedarnest and myself)
2nd Prize - $20 Gift Certficiate (Thanks to Violet_treasure and Makshi)
3rd Prize - Houseplant (Thanks to plantladylin)
4th Prize - $15 Gift Certificate (Thanks to Nan and Zwz7nc)

Prizes are subject to change as with donors pledges and such. Most Gift Certs will be winners choice.


The next post will contain the 35 names in the game....Remember to pick only 15 different names and dmail your 15 picks along with your DG name,Real Name and address to Nan. Hopefully this link will work.You can use it to dmail your card picks

Thank you for the great fun New Years Bingo Game !!

Just wanted to let everyone know - I'll respond to your d-mail to let you know that I received your 'card'.
And also wanted to say that I don't get online at night or on weekends, so don't panic if you don't hear from me right away!
Good luck everyone!
I'm excited! This is gonna be fun!

(I can't wait 'til next time when I can play!) (Ü)

I know that there were a few people who weren't sure 'how to play', so I copied/pasted these instructions from the other thread - Hope they're clear - if not just send Sharon (snboyken) or me a d-mail and we'll be happy to explain.

Sharon has posted a LARGE list of NAMES of houseplants (Philodendrons, specifically!)

You choose 15 of those Philodendron names from this list.

You compile this list of names you've chosen into a d-mail, numbered 1 through 15 and send it to me....THAT becomes your BINGO CARD.

Your best bet is to then go back to that d-mail and print a copy of your list to have in front of you.

When Sharon begins calling from her large list of names, you check off, on your list, those that she calls that you have chosen.

When you have all 15 you have to post on this BINGO thread that you have BINGO. I'll verify it with the card you d-mailed to me, and if it matches, you win!

The big trick is to check the BINGO thread as often as possible...that's where I've usually lost out! I'm just not online enough!

Sometimes, several people need one and the same name to win, so this is where the fast fingers win!


Good luck, everyone!
