I'm trying my best to describe this in the most simple to understand way... and with Pattycakes help, I think I finally got it figured out how to explain to you what we are going to do! ((Thanks Sis!! ))

I had hoped to have more time to write this up, but time slipped away, and Game 6 took longer than I had anticipated.

If this is too complicated and no one wants to play, I will cut back and make it more simple.

At the very least...the Cover Up game WILL be played at 1p.m. my time.

-----------------------------------------------------

For Halloween Bingo Marathon Games

Only one game at a time will be called ....

However...

(1) I need you to go ahead and make your cards for all the games in advance... because there won't be time in between the games tomorrow for you to make them.

Therefore.... you will use the same cards over and over for all games..

And... to keep the board from getting too complicated looking....

(2) You will only have one game card discussion thread that will be used for all the games.

In other words, you will start one, new game card discussion thread just like you do for our regular games....

The only difference is that for Halloween Day you will use these same cards for every game.

This is how it will be done:

If we have time before the day is over, there will be 7 different games played.

We may not be able to play all of them.

If you only want to play 2 or 3.. games on Halloween, or even just one... that is ok.

Title your game card thread like this...

Halloween Game Cards for __________

and put your name in the blank space.

On your game card thread.... you will need to post however many cards you want to play.

Below samples show how to win a Letter game. The called numbers have to be in the shape of the Letter that is being played.

If the numbers I call for a game, match the numbers that make the shape of the letter we are playing... you win that game.

You will only mark your cards for one Letter shape game at a time that we play.

The easiest way, is to either print out, or hand write you cards... and mark them on paper at home with a pen or highlighter pen.

Then... if you win, come post your winning card on the Numbers Called thread... just like in a regular game...and shout Bingo.

I will have a separate Numbers Called Thread for each game..... one for each game, as I call the numbers.

I hope this is clear enough to get you going. If not, I will try my best to make it easy for you.

Pattycake already has her game thread made... you can look at if for an idea of what to do.

I hope to start the first game by 10 am tomorrow.

It is now almost 9pm here now, so check your clock to see the time differences between you and myself.

I've re-written this man times, trying my best to describe this in the most simple to understand way... and with Pattycake's help, I hope I have got it figured out for you. ((Thanks Sis!! ))
