Bingo Cards Wanted for Potluck Bingo

This November and December, our challenge will feature bingo boards created by ... you! Potluck Bingo brings the concept of the holiday potluck—a chance to come together and share in a bounty collaboratively created—to our monthly challenge.

The challenge will open on November 15, but we are currently seeking bingo cards. If you would like to make your own cards, the sky is the limit! You can make as many cards as you would like. Templates are available to make it as simple as possible to create a board:

There is no deadline for cards that you create, aside from the challenge deadline of January 15.

If you don’t have time to make a board, we also have a form open from November 1 - 8 to submit prompts that someone else can turn into a board. Form submissions are limited to 1 per person. The window to submit prompts through the form isn’t very long, but that’s to give the boardmakers sufficient time to work their magic.

If you'd like to collaborate directly with another person to make the boards for you, then you can also do so, with unlimited boards that can be submitted anytime during the challenge.

If you are interested in making boards from prompts, let the mods know.

Boardmakers, we ask that you do the following:

  • If you choose to make a board from scratch rather than use the templates, please keep the dimensions roughly 575 x 865 pixels, with a portrait orientation.
  • Submit a plain text list of the prompts along with your board—we provide a text-only version for every board for accessibility. (There is a text-only prompt list template also. Note that links, hexadecimal color codes, etc can be given as part of the text!)
  • If submitting a NSFW board, let the mods know so we can mark it appropriately.
  • Finished boards should be submitted to moderator@silmarillionwritersguild.org
