General Rules for all Chat Games
- In order to participate in the chat game, and be eligible to win bingo bonuses, players must be active - have purchased at least on ticket - in the bingo game for the bingo room they occupy while playing the chat game.
- 'Shouting' or 'yelling' in the chat room is indicated by TYPING IN CAPS!
- In a called game, the first eligible person to call the relevant word and their number will be the winner (or where there are multiple stages to the game, will progress onto the next stage of the game). This will not necessarily be the first person who's chosen numbers are called therefore.
- Unless otherwise specified, there will be no more than one winner in any individual game.
- In pattern games, where the relevant pattern has not been completed by a participating player by the final (Full House) claim in the concurrent bingo game, there will be no chat-game winner, unless otherwise specified by the CM.
- The CM will decide the winner(s) and their decision is final.
- We request that any complaints are submitted by email, and not through the chat room, so as not to disturb play in the chat room, or other players.
- While the numbers chosen by each player for any one game may overlap with other players' numbers, we recommend that you try to choose numbers that have not been already selected.
Birthdays
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.
Paddy Airways

When both your numbers are out, call IM ON ME WAY and your numbers! 3 claims in game first to call gets 1BB, then the last number called will determine your air miles, so if last number clled is 67 the 3 winners of that game get 67 airmiles. The top three players with the most AIRMILES at the end of the game will win:

2nd 6BB's and Gold Room 12BB's
3rd 4BB's and Gold Room 8BB's
Dustybin Tournament

Postage Stamp
How to play
- Each player must give the CM one number from 1-90
- The players need to get 3 numbers that surround the number they have chosen to make a 2 by 2 square. (I.e. the shape of a stamp.)
- Once the numbers have been called the player needs to yell "POSTAGE STAMP & number"
- The first eligible player to do so wins 2BB.
Rules for Postage Stamp
- Players must clearly state their Postage Stamp numbers before the game has started by shouting the POSTAGE STAMP + CHOSEN_NUMBER before the game begins, so there is no misunderstanding E.g. “POSTAGE STAMP 58”
- This is a called game, and so it is the first eligible person to yell "POSTAGE STAMP" who gets the BBs, not necessarily the first person whose numbers have been called out.
Bongo
How to play
- Each player must pick either 2 or 3 numbers (to be decided by the
CM) between 1 and 90
- If his/her chosen numbers are called out during the bingo game, the player must yell "BONGO"
- The first
eligible player to do so wins 2BB.
Rules for Bongo
- Bongo can be
played with either 2 or 3 numbers, but the CM will state the amount for the game before it begins and before numbers are chosen.
- Each player must
clearly state their chosen 2 or 3 numbers before the Bongo game has started by shouting the BONGO + CHOSEN_NUMBERS before the game begins, so there is no
misunderstanding E.g. "BONGO 7, 58, 90".
- This is a called game, and so it is the first eligible person to yell "BONGO" who gets
the BB.
Dodge Ball
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.
Golden Balls
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!

Mirrors
How to play

each other. For example 56 and 65, (40,04), (27,72) etc.
- When the bingo room caller calls a players two chosen numbers, the player shouts
"MIRRORS" in the chat room
- The first eligible player to do this wins 2BB.
Rules for Mirrors
- Players must clearly state their Mirrors numbers before the game has started by shouting the MIRRORS +
CHOSEN_NUMBERS before the game begins, so there is no misunderstanding E.g. "MIRRORS 64, 46".
- This is a called game, and so it is the first
eligible person to yell "MIRROR" who gets the BBs, not necessarily the first person whose numbers have been called out.
