To participate in a game, players need to be logged into the bingo client, enter a room, and purchase tickets before the game starts. Players need to make sure that they buy tickets for the next game by the time the countdown reaches 0, otherwise they will be able to buy tickets for the next game after that.
When the game starts, the Caller will call out the numbers in which the players need to daub on their tickets, to match the pattern required. By default, the game automatically daubs (auto-daub) all matching numbers on the bought tickets, but Players can change this option to manually daub the cards on their own. Either way, any win will be automatically granted.
The winner(s) is/are the first player(s) to match all the numbers called by the caller, with the pattern in play on the purchased ticket(s). (BINGO!)
The “x to go” is a term used in bingo to reflect how many daubs the player is lacking in order to match the pattern on their purchased tickets. (e.g. “1 to go” on a ticket means that player needs one more valid daub in order to bingo on that pattern). Each ticket in play will have an “x to go” value, to help players faster understand the likeliness of winning across multiple tickets.
