No you don't have to wait for 5 numbers to be called out. If you get lucky and get a line with just the first 4 numbers you can announce it immediately.

So, are we saying there are no tasks associated with the numbers?

It's about whether the numbers are available in our cards or not?

Jinja?

It's first round and not everyone knows what bingo is so yes.

Yep I went through it all and responded where you missed something.

@b: phir aapun taarif aur bonus points dono mangta hai

Yeah I kinda realised I might be missing something, which is why I tagged you in some of my responses. Wanted to be sure I didn't get anything wrong.

Shreya, I have a doubt. Bingo is all about time element, right ? Like who gets there first. So if we are playing live, do we have to declare Bingo if we cross off a row/diagonal/column ? How do people who are doing it via PMs gonna declare ?

I mean aren't you checking the time here ?

Is it because everyone have recieved a totally different set of cards, you aren't focussing on the time element ?

Typically it's based on time element, but here everyone who gets bingo will get points so it's more based on luck element here.

Do we say bingo in public or via pm

Only

Either works. Your choice.

Free slot ka matlab woh point free hai khaas aapke khatir.

Isse dekhlijiye.

No, seriously. I'll pick one diagonal here. Say if the host calls out 3,7,57,74, then you can cross them off and declare Bingo for that diagonal. Kyunki beech mein free hai. It means it's already called ( in bingo terms )

You can also do this for the 4,29,51,71 or the 15,23,58,69. You need only 4 numbers from the host to declare Bingo. This is basically done to make the game a little easier for the participants. (Ik it's unbelievable since it's Shreya's game but afaik this is how it is in Bingo).

If there's no free, then here, for example, take 4,16,38,54,65 -- you need all the 5 numbers to be called out before you can declare Bingo. Agar ek bhi nahi hai toh you can't claim the row/diagonal/column.

I hope this makes it a bit clear.

This was very helpful Vera..Thank you soo much

I think the first example you posted 3,7,57,74 got me confused because I thought we could only go Rows, Column or Diagonal or not in any direction like Sprands but I think that was typo

Vera answered most of your questions. I'm just covering a few others.

Everyone has different bingo cards. Each person got 2. You will get points in this round for every line you get and if you get a full house then more points there.

Each round will be different. I've given everyone 2 bingo cards here so everyone has a fair chance at bingo and some points. Obviously it'll be luck based on what 30 numbers I call, but they should hopefully give everyone some points.

So this is mostly luck game like deal or no deal..how do you even come up with such ideas
