What is the deal with fortune bingo today?

[kessler]

After nearly every game it boots the players, everyone I've played with today. Been lucky a few times and have gotten to play up to 6 games in a row, but eventually I'm getting booted. Pogo must have worried about there new junk today and ignored server issues yet again. Havent' had this problem in any other game though. And as far as i know, all the bingos that I had happen to win today counted.

Pogo has listed a bingo issue going on in their help section. Check it out. Its one under hottopics.

Pogo just took fortune bingo down for maintenance.  That really makes me unhappy, lol.  With everyone avoiding bingo today I have a whopping 143 bingo wins for the day.

[Barbara]

Bingo is back up, the problems remain and somehow, I am up to 155 bingo wins, lol.

Pogo went down and I had to stop a grand total of 178 bingo games won for the day, sigh.

Babara....how do you get so many wins?  I only manage a couple a day, you are a powerhouse!

Bingo was not working well today, causing many to avoid the game.  I decided to go ahead and throw caution to the wind, fueled by a 4 pack of Red Bull and 2 jelly donuts.  I used my super high speed internet access powers to bop into a game, evaluate it, change cards if necessary, and move on as quickly as possible.  I also took the chance on the "hidden ball"  This is the one ball that is always in the chamber after someone has called a bingo win.  If you are set up with a possible bingo in several different ways, or even one way, take the chance and mark them and gong along.  You'd be surprised by how many times you can win this way.  If the ball is not the lucky next number called then the worst that can happen is you will be deducted a few tokens.

Great...Thanks for the tip!

Have fun, snag some badges!  Also, Wednesday is the perfect day to sneak in and snarf bingo wins.  Everyone is focused on the Badge Day festivities.  You have all week to get the weekly challenges and a bingo "free for all" is so rare.  The same applies to the day when a new game in introduced.  When there is a bingo weekly challenge you should go in on the Tuesday night before when they are setting up all those extra rooms and just go crazy.

Nutz, it is not possible to like any of these games, lol.  The upside to bingo is that really ugly badge at 1,900 wins.  I would rather have a root canal than to display that badge.

[Barbara]

I know that feeling ~oink~

Oh that's a good tip.  Thanks!
