Word Bingo

[Penster]

This is how it works. I will provide you with a list of 50 art-related words. You pick 25 and email your list to me. I will post 3/words/day. As your words come up, you check them off. When all 25 of the words you chose are picked, you be the first one to post BINGO. If you are first to get all 25 of your words picked, you will be declared the weiner.....errrr...I mean, winner. I will send you a prize package consisting of art supplies/ephemera and you will host the next game and provide the prize to the winner.

I would like to have at least 10 people to play, but welcome all those interested. I will keep the poll open for 3 days and then take it from there.


Thanks!
Penny

Just to be clear, we make our own Bingo cards with the words we choose, right?

(sometimes things must be explained very carefully to me.) :blink:

[Penster]

Just to be clear, we make our own Bingo cards with the words we choose, right?

Yup. Just pick 25 words from the list I provided. Email those 25 words to me. Those are the words you hope I choose first. You don't necessarily have to make a bingo card. Just keep your list handy so you can check off your words as they are posted.

If this is still a bit unclear, let me know!!

Thanks for playing :D
Penny

[cindi1023]

I'm in and e-mailing my list in just a minute...

I'm carrying around a printed out list of the words so I can cross them off as I post them. The list is in my purse so I can post from home or work. I wonder if someone found the list with the words crossed off with dates written next to them if they would think I was checking off moods I went through in one day....
