Play GoldenBalls each day from 1pm in the Gold Room!

How to Play: The first winning (Full House) bingo number after 1pm is our GoldenBall. That first winner will be crowned King or Queen for the day by the CM, and awarded a prize of 5BB's for the honour!

And it's not all about the royalty - there'll be prizes for the subjects too: anyone else who wins the Full House on the GoldenBall number for the rest of the day will also be awarded 5BB's!

Ever wanted to be in the Famous Five? Well come join Paddy's GoldenGang instead!

How to Play: This is a multi-winner game. Each player chooses a number from 0 to 9 before the start of the bingo game. When the full house is claimed the winning number dictates the GoldenGang number, which is the second digit in the winning call number: e.g. if the winning bingo game number was 63, then everyone who picked 3 calls "GoldenGang 3" to win your GoldenBonus of 2bbs.

Who said tortoises are slow?! They could win you 50BBs in this tourney!

How To Play: Each player picks a number between 1 and 15. At the beginning of each game the CM will announce how many numbers you need to get your tortoise in, ie. if you pick 1 and the CM says three at the beginning of the game you would need any of the 3 numbers to come out 1, 16, 31, 46, 61, 76. The first player in gets 1BB and 3 tortys, 2nd gets 2 tortys and 3rd gets 1 torty.

The winning tortoise will waddle away with a BB and a point for their player, and the top three players with the most tortoise points at the end of the tourney will win 50, 30 and 15BBs!

There is a chance for everyone to score in this exciting game!

How to play...

• Each player picks two numbers from the grid (from 1-90) to give to the CM, saying e.g. "DEAL 18, 57" before the game starts.
• When the player's two numbers have been called they shout DEAL in the chat room.
• The first player who shouts DEAL in the chat room will then qualify to play the second part of the game, with a chance to win up to 15 Bingo Bonuses at once!
• Bingo Bonus denominations from 0 to 15 are hidden behind the squares in the bingo grid. The qualifying player will get two chances (see below) to find one of these squares, choosing "To Deal" - to stick with their first square or "Not to deal" - to try one final square.
• If the qualifying player chooses to deal on the Beat The Manager square, all players in the room will be awarded 1 Bingo bonus!

Rules for To Deal Or Not To Deal...

• Players must clearly state their "DEAL" numbers before the game has started by shouting the DEAL + CHOSEN_NUMBER before the game begins, so there is no misunderstanding E.g. "DEAL 7, 66"
• The first part of this game is a called game, and so it is the first person to yell "DEAL" in the chat room only who gets the chance to go for the second part of the game.
• Once a players shout has been verified they go through to the second part of the game.
• This qualifying player then needs to choose any other number from the bingo game grid. Note that this number is independent of the number the player has already selected.
• The CM will have a number of different 'maps' showing the location of BB prizes on the bingo number grid, and will choose one at random before the game begins. The CM will tell the player the number of BB's hidden under their chosen square, as defined on this map.
• Upon hearing the number of BB's hidden under their square, the player is given the opportunity "To Deal Or Not To Deal": to try a different square or stick with their first choice. They get one chance to change only.
• If the player chooses "to deal" on the "Beat the Manager" square all participating players in the chat room will receive 1BB.
• The BB amounts are divided randomly among the bingo game grid as follows: 1 x 15BB's
  2 x 10BB's
  5 x 8BB's
  5 x 6BB's
  10 x 4BB's
  15 x 2BB's
  20 x 1BB
  31 x 0 BB's
  1 x "Beat The Manager Square"

How to play...

• Each player picks two numbers that either add to 21: e.g. (20 + 1), (15 + 6), (10 + 11) etc, or can be subratcted to get 21: e.g. (87 - 66), (39 - 18) and tells these to the CM in the room.
• The CM also chooses two numbers to equal 21, then acts as the “Dealer” for the game
• When your two numbers are called in the bingo game, shout BLACKJACK and your numbers.
• The first eligible player to Beat the Dealer to 21 win’s a BB

Rules for Beat the Dealer....

• Players must clearly state their Beat the Dealer numbers before the game has started by shouting the BLACKJACK’s + CHOSEN_NUMBERS before the game begins, so there is no misunderstanding E.g. “BLACKJACK 17, 4”
• The CM will choose one set of numbers for a Beat The Dealer game and may change their numbers on the next game if they wish to do so.
• Players may choose the same set of numbers as each other.
• This is a called game, and so it is the first person to yell "BLACKJACK" before the “Dealer” who gets the BB, not necessarily the first person whose numbers have been called out.

How to play...

• Each player selects a horse from the bingo grid from numbers 1-15. (i.e. numbers that along the top of the number grid.) These numbers are the "horses" on the "starting line".
• A player's horse completes the race when all other numbers in the vertical line beginning with the selected number (the horse) have been are called by the Bingo caller .e.g. if a player chooses horse number 1, that horse will finish when the numbers 1, 16, 31, 46, 61 and 76 have been called. The numbers can be called in any order.
• When your horse is in, call "Horse" and your number. The first player to do so will win 2BBs.

Rules for Horse Races

• Players must clearly state their Horse-Race numbers before the race has started by shouting the HORSE RACES + CHOSEN_NUMBER before the game begins, so there is no misunderstanding E.g. "HORSE RACES 7".

There can be a number of winners in this great game!

How to play ...

• Each player picks 2 numbers from 1-90
• If those 2 numbers are not called within the first 20 calls, then any (i.e. all) players who shout "DODGEBALL" by the 25th call receives 2BB.

Dodge Ball Rules...

• Each player must clearly state their chosen 2 numbers before the Dodgeball game has started. by shouting the DODGEBALL + CHOSEN_NUMBER before the game begins, so there is no misunderstanding E.g. "DODGEBALL 61, 25"
• Any DODGEBALLS called after the 25th call will not count; the CM has the final word as to who has called before the 25th call.
• You accept that claims that an otherwise eligable player's chat window has frozen before the 25th call cannot result in this player being awarded a Bingo Bonus if they have not made the Dodgeball shout by the 25th. We recognize that this unlikely scenario is unfortunate for the player but the CM's decision will be final.

How to play...

• Each player must give the CM his or her birthday date, (or a made up one) in the DD/MM/YY format.
• When all 3 numbers come out during the bingo game, the player must yell "BIRTHDAYS" followed by the date. E.g.: "BIRTHDAYS 03-10-05"
• The first eligible player to do so wins 1BB.

Rules for Birthdays...

• Each player must clearly state his or her Birthday numbers before the Birthdays game has started.
• This is a called game, and so it is the first eligible person to yell "BIRTHDAYS" who gets the BB.
