Moose Bingo!

That’s right…I have written a new Bingo program for the moose that covers exactly what you need to make Bingo at you lodge easy to run!

Features:

• An easy to use Caller screen that manages each game through your entire session
• A second, simpler Player screen for use with a second monitor
• Many built in games, including diagrams so that players know which game they’re playing
• A custom option which allows you to create your own games and enable/disable columns at will
• Paint Stick bingo option as well
• New games added every day, and purchase includes updates for a year for free, and this can be extended for $5 per year !

Here’s how it works – first load the software on any laptop or computer, then:

1. Start the program – if you have one monitor then you see the Caller View, but if you have 2 (or a monitor and a hookup to your big screen), then you see both the Caller and Player view! (You may need to drag the screens to the right monitor.)
2. Click Select Game
3. Click on your selected game from the visual list of games – the board will show, and any unneeded columns will be greyed out.
4. Click Start Game – the game starts and picks the first number (In Red).  Timers start to show you the game time and elapsed time since your last number.
5. Click Next Number – the old number turns green and a new number is pulled (in red).  Repeat until…
6. Click Bingo called and select yes.  The screen will change to let everyone know, and we wait until…
7. Click Validate Bingo…Say Yes for a good Bingo (Or no to go back to the game)
8. And we’re now ready to go to Step 2 and start the next game!

Special Note about the “Other” game – if you want to play a game that has not been created yet…

• After selecting “Other” you have the option of clicking the column letter to disable/enable columns until the game starts – once the game starts, then you cannot change the board.
