@cvcalhoun Just curious. Will the winner be the first person to post Bingo on this forum? (In the event that two people are going to get the same thing on the same day and get a Bingo). Just asking as a person who doesn’t do early rides.
The bad news: Yes, it’s the first person to post Bingo on this forum. The good news: No one else is looking for the same item you are in order to make Bingo. (There is one item right now that three different people need, so that will be a free-for-all if it’s called.)

@cvcalhoun, can I have a new card for the next round please? Let me know what I need to do. Thanks!
You’ve got two options here:
- On a computer, you can go to https://bingobaker.com/#657aacf7eb03d5af, click on “Generate card,” and let me know the URL of the card you get. I recommend this approach if at all possible, because you can keep generating cards until you get one you like. E.g., if you’re trying to avoid Xmas decorations in March, or if cats are scarce in your neighborhood, you can keep going until you find a card that doesn’t have the items you’re trying to avoid.
- However, there have been issues with doing this on a phone. If you don’t have a computer available, let me know and I’ll generate a new card for you. If you’d like, you can check the List of Items tab on the spreadsheet to see what items you’d like to avoid and let me know, and I’ll generate a card that doesn’t have those items, assuming it’s a reasonable number. (I’m not going to keep going until I find a list that lacks 25 of the 75, for example!)

I need an incentive to ride…

February 19, 2024 at 1:50 pm #1132251LhasaCMParticipantAssuming something gets called today, will it count if I took the picture on a ride today but before the call was announced? (just wondering if I need to plan to go back out if one of the things I need for Bingo gets called or if I’m set…)
February 19, 2024 at 2:10 pm #1132252cvcalhounParticipantYikes, my apologies everyone, I thought I had posted today’s!
February 19 – Train. Any train that actually runs (Amtrak, Metro, children’s miniature train). No train cars being used as restaurants, train artwork, stationary trains being used as museum exhibits.

If you happened to have gotten a train today, you can use it in recognition of the fact that I was extremely dilatory. However, you can’t use whatever you found today for any item called tomorrow or any later day.
February 19, 2024 at 4:21 pm #1132279LhasaCMParticipant2/19/2024 – Train (Metro, to be precise, taken from the MBT) – this was not one of the “if I get this I get Bingo” items I pre-emptively took a picture of “just in case” so I can just trash those and try again if they get called 🙂

February 19, 2024 at 7:04 pm #1132289AlanAParticipant@cvcalhoun – Since some of us don’t happen to take pictures of everything on our card, will I be able to get ‘train’ for tomorrow as well as what’s called for tomorrow? I did have train on my card.
