At the heart of our community, we try to entertain you and amuse you with fresh and innovative prizes and themes each and every month. There's always something happening to keep you coming back for more. So grab your favorite drink, settle into your seat, and join one of our great Chat Leaders for great fun and chat!

The Vault: Whenever a game winner is counted out during tournament & event play (only by being the game winner, not a nabor), we will add 1000 points to "The Vault".  Each Saturday night, we will schedule a time to play one game, and the winner of that game will receive all the points in the "Vault" for the prior week. We will start the vault off on Sunday night at midnight each week.

 

BingoNet Blow Out Draw: Every player that wins a game during a chat event, is a Nabor, or wins in a tournament will be entered into the BingoNet Blow Out Draw.  Players that also participate in the Newsletter games also qualify. The draw will be held on the first day of the following month.  Each month, we will start over again with a new set of qualifiers.  Grab up your daubers, and get your cards, you don't want to miss out qualifying for the Blow Out Draw.

Bulls Eye: Two players per week will be awarded the "Bulls Eye".  The Bulls Eye Player will choose a number between 1 and 75, and every time their number appears during any tournament or chat game, they must yell "BULL'S-EYE B-2" (or whatever the number is that they choose) for 100 BingoNet Rewards Points.  One player will be chosen by the draw process.  The second player will be the person who wins the first game of the Nite Owl tournament on Sunday morning.  In the case of multiple winners, it will be the first player that appears in the chat room.

Themed Bingo Tournament Format : Unless otherwise noted on the Tournament Calendar, all Bingo Tournaments use the formats of either the top 3 winners in a two hour period or "Share the Wealth".


Winner Takes All : And we have a winner! In the Winner Takes All tournament, it's twelve games of play; with the high scorer taking home one terrific prize!


Grabbag : Win a game; win a prize, that's how the Grabbag works. Whether it's one winner or more, everyone who bingo's during a Grabbag Tournament wins a prize, usually a Gift Certificate, sometimes merchandise.


Gold Rush Bingo : Share the Wealth format, the pot is split between all the winners in the Gold Rush Tournament. Gold Rush is always held in the One Line Gold Bingo Room.

Bullet : Share the Wealth format, the pot is split between all the winners in the Bullet Tournament. Bullet is always held in the Bullet Room.


Speed Bingo : Speed Bingo Tournaments are always held in the Speed rooms. The top 5 places win additional points for their prize.


Moonlight Madness : Every winner that wins a game during Moonlight Madness will win additional points. How many? That depends on how many points the game you win was worth. For instance, if you win a game alone during the tournament, and it is worth 206 points, we will subtract that 206 points from 5000, which would leave 4794 points and that will be what you won. In the case of more than one person winning in the game, for example 2 players win a game valued at 206 points. You would split 4794 points between you for 2397 points each. Three winners, win one game valued at 206 points, each would receive 1598 points.


Lights Out Bingo : Share the Wealth format, the pot is split between all the winners in the Lights Out Tournament. Lights Out is always held in the Speed Black Out Room.

 

Cash Bonanza : As per scheduled, one lucky winner walks away with the Cash!

Splatter the Wealth: Put on an old shirt, and join us in a paint ball tournament! Share the Wealth format!

Alphabet Soup : Each letter in the Alphabet will have a Special Bonus, it could be points, it could be a gift card, or it could be an Instant Store Redemption. Our Bingo Winners will choose a letter from the Alphabet and receive that amount in a Bonus. And your Nabors  (one up and one down) will also receive that same amount as a bonus!  The winner of this game MUST respond or the Nabors will not receive a bonus.

 

Team Bingo: This is an event for team members only. It will be played in a special room – Team Time. The room will open approximately 1 5 minutes before the games and close immediately after the event. If you play in the room and are not a team member, any points you won for a game will be deducted from your account. Each team will have five members. Twice a week, from 2PM to 4PM on Thursdays and Saturdays, we'll play Team Bingo for two hours. The scoring is simple. Each time a Team member bingos, the Team scores 2 points. If there are multiple winners of a game, then each team with a winner will score 1 point unless there is only one Team represented among the winners, in which case 2 points will be awarded. Each time your team wins a game, each team member will receive  5 00 points. Points will not be posted to the teams until Sundays.  You must play at least one of those days to receive the  5 00 point credit that a member of your team has earned for the team.  Twice a month, we will play for double bonus points. So, grab 4 of your buds, and create your team. The top  10 team s for each month  and year end will receive an additional  bonus as described on the Team Bingo Page listed under the News Tab.  Send an email to sandra@v3networks.com with your team-mates and yoursViolet listed.

Poker w/Buddies: The winner(s) of each game and their first up and first down nabor will play poker based on the first 5 balls out in the next game.  Winners and nabors must be in the room and answer CL when called on to be eligible for the game.  If not there, the next nabor will be called on.  Prizes will be as follows:

2 pair -  4000 points
3 of a kind - 5000 points

Bingoship: Don't sink my ship! Drag out your old battleship games, and bone up on how this is played. Each time a player Bingos, they select two (2) numbers from 1-75. Object is to sink one of our CLs ships. Their ships can be anywhere on the called number board: across, down or even diagonally. You must keep track of hits and misses, our CLs will not tell you if a number has been chosen. If you come in late, ask your bingo buds in the chat for help. If you “Hit” one of the ships you will receive a 500 points, miss and get a 250 points consolation prize. If the number has already been called, there will be no consolation prize. Sink her and you will receive:

 

Rubber Dinghy: 750 points

Caller: 1000 points

CLmeanmama: 2000 points

CLPurpleMoon: 3000 points

CMBelle: 4000 points

Vera: 5000 points

SSBingoNet: 10000 points

 

All winners who chose a number in the ship that was sunk will receive equal points for the sinking.

 

Slip Slide: Take the first number called in the game, look at the row the number was called in and SLIDE over to the Corresponding "O", add 2 zeros to that number, and that is your bonus PLUS nabors 1 UP and 1 DOWN too! For example, if first number out is G53 you slide over to O-68, add a 2 zeros to make it 6800, and that's the Bonus!! Winners and neighbors will be required to be playing in the game and answer to CL when your name is called in order to receive the bonus points.  If nabors do not respond the next person up or down will be the neighbor.

 

Add It Up : Take the first 5 numbers out, add them all together, then for an added bonus, add a 0 to the end, and that will be your bonus points if you win in Add It Up. Winners and neighbors will be required to be playing in the game and answer to CL when your name is called in order to receive the bonus points.  If nabors do not respond the next person up or down will be the neighbor.

Trivial Matters There will be 5 categories of questions, B-I-N-G-O, like B is Music, I is Movies, etc. Whatever you bingo on will be the category the question comes from. Three people can answer the trivia, provided one of them is right, all 3 get the bonus points….that would be the winner, the up nabor and the down nabor. All three get one chance each to answer the question (all three can type in their guess at the same time). An incorrect answer will receive 250 points for winner and nabors, a correct answer will receive 1,000 points for all. If answer is incorrect, then the question will be open to the room. First player to answer receives 1,000 points (no nabors). As always, winner and nabors must be in the room and respond when their name is called to be eligible to play.

Deal or No Deal : Just like the TV Game Show with a few twists, we start the game with 26 Cases. The first winner of the first game will choose a case that all the winners will hold until the end of the event. Each subsequent winner will eliminate each of the remaining cases, with some interception from the ‘Banker’. Will you take what the Banker has to offer, or will you hold out!!! Every winner in the event will receive the same prize, whether it’s the Banker’s offer, or the remaining case. Now for the extreme twist, not only are you vying for what is in the case, but the top 5 winners will each receive a $5 Gift Card! We play until we eliminate all the cases, or someone accepts the Banker’s offer. You don’t want to miss this one!

Potpourri: Win a game and see what's under that number on the CL's potpourri list.   Maybe it will be a points or a prize.  Once the number is used, it is retired for the rest of that event.  You must be in the room and answer the CL when called on.

B-I-N-G-O Buddies : In B-I-N-G-O Buddies, the nabors change. Dependant on what Letter the Bingo is won on, we count the nabors as follows:

B- go up 3, down 3
I- go up 2, down 2
N- go up 1, down 1
G- go up 2, down 2
O- go up 3, down 3

If a nabor doesn't answer up, we go to the person directly above or below them. Winners and their nabors will receive 2,500 points each.



Player's Choice: The first winner in the event will be allowed to choose whatever Event they wish to play from our list of valid selections.  Game choices include- BingoShip; Poker w/Buddies; Share the Wealth w/Nabors; Slip Slide; Add It Up; B-I-N-G-O Buddies.  This is your chance to choose YOUR favorite chat game!

Tell us a Tale: In Tell us a Tale, we're looking for a story (made up of course) that just gets bigger and bigger as we go along. The CL will start off the scenario at the beginning of the event (examples- "It was a dark and stormy night at the bingo hall"; "Once upon a time there was a caller named Prince".) Each time a player bingo's, they have to add to the story by picking one or both of their nabors and adding a line to the tale. Winners that "Tell us a Tale" by adding on to the story and their nabors (for being good sports) will receive 2500 points each.


Shy Violets: In Shy Violets we use a grid with 150 Violets, and behind each Violet is a bonus amount of reward points or a gift card. The grid will be used until February 29th, and you have to keep track of what Violets that have been chosen, as it can only be picked once. Each week a new grid will be uploaded showing which Violets are gone, and what the bonus was behind it. If a player chooses a Violet that is already eliminated, we will direct you to the grid, and have you pick a new Violet, we will not repeat what is available in the chat room. There will be no whammies. 

Top Gun: In Top Gun, the player that wins the most points in 2 hours, and their Nabors receives a $5 Gift Card. One player can have several Nabors during the 2 hour period, and they all qualify for the gift card. If you are not the "Top Gun", you and your Nabors will receive 1000 points.  

The BingoNet Ladder: Entry into one of four tournaments depends on your "point level".  Four tournaments running simultaneously once per month (first Sunday of each month).
