Think Bingo Weekly Forum Competition
31 July 2007
Think bingo run a weekly forum competition where you can win same fabulous tps.
Each week they post a forum newsletter giving you information on what’s been happening on the forum and a find the Password Competition.
In this competition Duncan the manager posts a Password on Think Bingos forum which you need to find. Then you need to email the password to Duncan@thinkbingo.com with your username and the password. You can win tps ranging from 10000 to 100,000 each week. 10000 tps is the equivalent of £10.00 of bingo play and 100,000 tps is the equivalent to £100.00 of bingo play, wow. You can redeem these tps in your profile on the front page to play Bingo. You cannot cash out these tps but if you are luckily enough to win while playing with them you can then cash out your winnings. Last weeks password was (emotion) and 10 lucky thinkers won 10,000 tps each WTG, next week 5 thinkers will win 20,000 tps each, so get looking for that password. Please note: Think Bingo have a minimum withdrawal of £30.00.
If you do not like trawling though the forum each week looking for the password, I have a quick and easy tip for you to find it easily. You will need to find a post that Duncan the manager has made, then if you double click on his name it will bring up another page under Duncan’s name it will say (find all posts by Duncan manager), if you click on this it will bring up all the posts Duncan has made, all you need to do then is scroll down and you will find the password. However if you like the more traditional way of finding the password you will need to look through the entire forum to find the post Duncan has made with the password in it. Happy hunting bingo buddies, go find that password.
Think Bingo offer a free £5.00 sign up bonus. www.thinkbingo.com
This is a great free to enter competition by Think Bingo. All you need to do is be a member of the think bingo forum to be able to enter. Forums are a great place to check out what is hot and happening on your Bingo Site, so don’t forget to go take a look.

Why the increase in ads on TV for Bingo
27 July 2007
Online Bingo gaming has become a huge industry on the internet and there are many clubs fighting for your commitment.
This is one of the fastest growing industries on the internet hence the fierce competition.
The recent increase in advertising has come about because the of the recent increase in on-line clubs they are advertising to entice new players to there clubs as well as informing land based players the facility is now available on-line.
In September 2007 there will be certain restrictions placed on clubs with regards to the advertising allowed, as determined by the gambling commission. Due to these restrictions and regulations some clubs have decided to ensure their adverts are in the public domain and are compiling with the regulations now.
This is to be sure they have it right by the time these regulations are entrenched, the regulations to be put in place are with regards to advertising gambling sites and to ensure that it is done in a socially responsible way therefore protecting the general public and any vulnerable groups and the young.
The code of practice regarding advertising was put in place from March 2007 but does not come into force until September.
Advertising has long been established as an excellent way to obtain customers and to inform people of the services available to them.
On-line bingo clubs have just followed suit and joined in the fight for players.

Online Bingo for Beginners
26 July 2007
To play bingo online, bingo players would select relevant amount of required cards with numbers on them in a 5 x 5 grid corresponding to the five letters in the word B-I-N-G-O.
Try Free Bingo Games at BingoPort it’s the best way to learn and it’s free!
BingoPort.co.uk Free Bingo Game - CLICK HERE!
Numbers such as B-2 or 0-68 are then drawn at random by a random number generator until one player completes the corresponding Bingo game pattern, such as a 1 line, 2 lines, full house game pattern (five numbers in a vertical, horizontal or diagonal row) on one of their cards and wins the prize.
There are many possible bingo game patterns played. Most bingo online halls allow a maximum of 24 to 50 bingo cards, whilst some allow the purchase of up to a maximum of 100 cards depending on the club. Some bingo online halls automatically set a limit so all players have same number of cards to eliminate the advantage of maxing (purchasing all cards).
The numbers are announced quickly by the Caller, so you must pay careful attention to the numbers that are called and mark them quickly and accurately on your card(s) if not on auto play.
UK Online bingo halls have automatic daubing features for those who would rather not search for the number, or play too many cards, or would rather play chat games or one of the other games offered during bingo games.
The caller keeps calling numbers until one or more players claim BINGO then the game stops and the numbers are verified.
This is an automatic feature in on-line clubs and claims for the player automatically. If there is a winner, the prize is awarded and a new bingo game begins with new cards. If there is more than one winner, the prize is split among all the winners.

How to Play Bingo the Game
25 July 2007
With the recent release of Bingo Ports Free Bingo Game we thought we should provide a little information about some of the basics of UK bingo online.
A player purchases the relevant number of cards or tickets required, these tickets have numbers on them in 5×5 grid corresponding to the word bingo – i.e.: B5 O70 etc there are various variations on the game such as 75’s (USA Bingo) and 90’s (UK Bingo) as well as various game Pattern’s such as one line, two lines, full house pattern.
The game play pattern is determined before the start of the game by the caller or the club. The object of the game is to be the first to complete the relevant pattern on your cards by marking off all numbers on your ticket.
The host (Bingo Caller) will call numbers randomly generated by a random number generator and if you have the number you mark it off as it corresponds with the numbers on your selected cards, once you have a completed ticket and nobody else has claimed.
You call BINGO and game play stops if you are the first the caller will verify your ticket along with any other claimants and prizes will be awarded accordingly.
Never call Bingo unless you have marked off all your corresponding numbers as this stops play.
Most online bingo sites in the UK have an option for Auto Bingo and Auto Marking or Auto Daubing so you will never miss a BINGO!
