2) Browser Internet Explorer
3) Color setting  32 bit
4) Screen resolution  1024x768
5) Smooth edges of screen fonts  unchecked
6) MSJava

My Partner in 'crime' and I played Bingo by hand every morning for a year and got ALL the Bingo Badges for her Screen-Name.  Now I want them too, tried Dotties Dauber, and it really goes awry :(  (Read #7 above) Can anyone help?   Also if we get it working properly, what is a good time setting to run with Room Rover?
Thanks  :)

Thanks Barb--- :)

Mine will also sometimes go in and check all the spots.
I have noticed it mostly does it in 3 card rooms.
I have had no problems running with scissors with the auto in 1 card rooms.

[Jinx55]

Thanks but mine does it in the one card rooms   :(  --also tried it using Sun Java --no change  :'(

[greenflash]

Mine only works well in one card rooms. It goes nuts when I try to use it in 3 card rooms. I thought maybe it was only supposed to work with one card rooms.
I have tried it with Java and MSVM. Changed several settings, browsers, etc. and it made no difference.

I only play (or try to play) in one card rooms, I would like to run overnight with Room Rover but as long as it keeps hitting bingo at the wrong time I am in 'Bingo Badgeless Doom' Woe is me  :( :( :(

i so hate this game im only on rank 1

As I doggedly determine to get Dotties Dauber to daub delicately and directly without 'dinging' the gong improperly, I have now come to wonder where on the game the auto dauber is supposed to sit.....at first it diligently sat at the bottom of Dotties game...later it moved itself right over where the numbers are displayed after they are dispatched from the ball dispenser.
Any help here?  (sorry about the alliteration)  8)

Sometimes when I pop into a room (I think it is mostly blackout rooms) this will happen to me.  It is normally on the first time I pop into the room and all I do is pause the auto at the end then unpause it.  It then goes back and fixes the incorrect numbers and is good to go after that.  I have missed stopping it and had it try to hit the bong and received a warning but I just do the same thing.  I pause it, then unpause it and it readies itself.  It doesn't happen that often, and when it does, it doesn't continue into the second game.

It appears to be working OK as I have run it with Room Rover the past couple of hours....if the problems start occurring again I will send a report. I guess it just needed to warm up...I am still on trial with it, but will probably purchase soon...Thanks for everyone's input  :)

Hi Barb
Ask Bob if this could be a problem.
Since the auto has to talk to his server, is  it possible that we are doing so much room hopping it might hiccup now and then?
Mine would do it, but I go to another room or reload and she was back up and gonging.

[Jinx55]

Well I bought the program....it did it's Bong before bingo...I sent a report ...oh well try try again  ???

[Jinx55]

Thanks....umm by the way it also failed to hit the gong when I had a bingo, is this a new one or just a quirk? :o

[Jinx55]

Sorry to be such a bother............you are really a Sweetie  :)  ;)  8)

[Capt. Morgan]

Thanks Bob for the great auto.
Like barbara said I used the auto running full tilt.
After the smoke and sawdust had settled from the chainsaw, I had collected 743 BINGOS in 1 week.

Wow! And that's not even the alpha version I have that has BAM! I really have to get off my behind and get that one finished.

I am really happy my auto worked so well for you. I am on dial-up so I could never hope to get that many bingos even when Pogo foolishly leaves dozens of empty bingo rooms lying around.

I hope lots of customers did as you did Captain and made hay while the sun was shining.

I did :)  I didn't make as much hay as Motley or the Capt or others but I got from just over 200 to over 600.  I had planned to be at 1000 but for some reason, there is the developer that got together with Homer and came out with an awesome auto and I got side tracked while I knocked out the Stellar game :)  Good job Bob O0

Mr. Bill, you did an excellent job.  I need 144 more bingos until rank 13.  I should be doing it now but I hate Bingo.  I just tried to room hop and found I didn't want to do it.  Just being in the rooms is making me ill.  My husband just called and said, "you know what we haven't done in awhile?  Go to Bingo..maybe we should have someone watch the kids Saturday night and go."  I said, "you can go if you want, but I'm not going to lose money and get no badge out of it."  He told me to take a break from Pogo for awhile.  Maybe I will try and finish the last 4 ranks in Stellar first.

OMG Motley, you are doing awesome and your story is too funny.  I actually ran bingo all day when I was at work using room rover, and the auto and gained around 20 bingos and I'LL TAKE 'EM.  I keep telling myself that I need to get the next to the last badge (only around 350 to go) and I got the same feeling you describe above.  Of course, I'm just a touch under the weather and am such a big baby when I'm sick (all grumpy and irritable, and "oh woe is me") that I've about decided to mark it off as a good run and take a few weeks off of it.  I don't mind running the auto but you really need to add room jumping to make real progress and for that you just gotta want to get it.  I think I've lost that bingo feeling (at least for a little while) :)  Thanks for your story and great job O0
