Sizzling Summer Contest 90 Ball Corner! Special Games Chat Master Throw Down Jolly July Contest July 3-in-1 Contest

Playing everyday, from Midday to Midnight until midnight on 31st July, we are celebrating summer by the shore. Each time you Bingo on the WAVE Pattern in 75 Ball or Full House round on the :48 past the hour game in our 90 Ball Hall on the designated game, you've ridden the wave and earn 1 point in our contest!! But uh oh, there's a catch...you MUST be in chat at the start of the game and be present when your name is announced as our full house/game winner. Our CM will then add your name to their list of winners for their shift and we will start adding up the number of waves you have ridden. Now you know we just have to spice this up just a bit more. To make things just a little more interesting there will be a MAX buy-in of 12 cards per player - 25 cent cards in 75 Ball and 60c cards in 90 ball, with a Buy Two Get One Free offer, and a Minimum $15 game prize that is sure to grow as tickets fly out the door for this one - FAIR and SQUARE!! Click here to check out the prizes up for grabs!

Each Monday we will update a leaderboard for you so you can see where you are in the contest. Good luck all and RIDE THAT WAVE!

We're headed to Beijing! The Summer Olympic Games begin on 8th August and closing ceremonies are on 24th August in Beijing, China. We will be having our own Special Olympic DAILY Team event.
Here's how it will work:
On August 8th, a nonpartisan rep will draw from a hat the following countries: USA, Canada, Australia, Russia, Italy, France, Great Britain, Germany, China, Netherlands, Japan & Korea. As each country is drawn out of the hat it will be assigned to Team #1, Team #2 etc. down the line. At the end of each night when the Medal count is announced for that day's events you will be awarded the following BPs for each Medal your country won that day:

• GOLD - £3BBs
• SILVER - £2BBs
• BRONZE - £1BBs

All you have to do is send an email to carol@rubybingo.com if you want to be assigned to a team. Requests received AFTER midnight will be eligible for NEXT day's games. All players will be assigned to teams in the order their emails are received. Initially teams will be numbered from 1 to 12. You must have deposited in the last 7 days, and played a minimum of 36 games to be eligible for BBs each day. OODLES of BBs up for grabs so make sure you're IN chat rooting for your teams, and your pre-buys are always up-to-date!!!
