Want to play? Reply and I'll give you your card. When the thing happens, fill in the square. If you get 5 in a row, horizontally, vertically, or diagonally, you get a prize from me. You have until this time next year to win! Cards are randomized.

Heh. My top line seems tough with "story sucks" and "story rocks" :p I do believe I have at least two paths to victory though. :)

Well, presumably Cody is the judge, so at least you know which of those two WILL be filled in.

No way I'm letting a %23codywasright slip through when he really wasn't. :p

I don't even know what "Titan" by itself means, but I'm just going to wait until something vaguely involving Titans happens and then claim it. :)

Sorry, the Moon of Saturn Titan :-)

Oh, right.

I still might try to claim that other stuff.

Note that this thread sets up "codywasright" as he called the thing via bingo cards. haha.

One caveat through. No "Golem" Square as I've seen on the others. Golem is not a Bungie game. Golem is Highwire Games! BUNGIE 2017!

As luck would have it…

Shouldn't this game be called Bungo? Anyway, I'm in.

I'm out of cards.

When you win, just post your card in a new thread with the title BINGO! You have a whole year! First three get a prize.

I thought I had until 2017 started to sign up. You provided no stipulation on sign up time limit or a number of cards limitation. You didn't even make it 24 hours...16 cards, what a poor showing

You being such a "rules guy", you posted little to no rules regarding this game

How is that possible? A 5x5 grid has 25 possible permutations, and you've only posted 16. I didn't have much interest in playing, but math that doesn't add up makes me curious. ;)
Edit:

If you remove the 5 vertically similar options, and one horizontally-symmetric (these cards would all have the same row possiblities), that drops to 19 cards. Are there three other similar arrangements I'm missing?

Are you counting the free space? (I have made no attempts to do the math)

These 5x5 cards can be seen as a sequence of 24 squares where ordering matters (the 25th being the center free space), these 24 squares are chosen from a pool of at least 24 things, I think Cody has more than 24 things to chose from though. At a minimum, that's WAY more than 25 possible cards. (24*23*22*21*20*19*18*17*16*15*14*13*12*11*10*9*8*7*6*5*4*3*2*1 = 6.2x10^23)

For example to make a row you pick 5 things, 1 at a time, from a pool of 24, you could come up with over 5 million unique rows. Heck there's 24 different ways to chose the first tile and 552 = 24 * 23 different ways to chose the first two.

Maybe Cody was using a demo of some software and ran out of demo cards.

I can make an exception for you. Give me a little while and I'll make one for you.

(¬_¬) not sure if I even wanted a card for sure to begin with or if you were serious about whipping one up

Either way 2016 is almost over!

I like to Bingo.
