*~ Winner!! ~* Rocko Bingo Game 1 - betojdesigns ~*

[Rockoonz]

It was fun, and it looks like the probability of a bingo in 14 calls on a regular card could have been about in line with the ROCKS card.
Would be interesting to see this graphed if you were a numbers geek like me, but this is a decent article,

Thank you again everyone who played. I didn't dob your cards as the contest was progressing but just out of curiosity I went through them now just to see how we were did as a whole. Overall I'm happy with how it went even after my error in (proper bingo) numbering added a significant mathematical difficulty level as discovered by oregon .

Random statistics (all of these include the starting and the surprise free squares):

There were 6 players sitting on 4 in a row at the time of the final draw.

MsAli had the most overall squares at 8

Five people had 6 squares - agatewhisperer , NDK , brybry , darrad , and quartzilla

We all watched stonemon go the longest without a hitting a draw but it was rockbrain , allbetzoff , and catskillrocks who ended up with 2 each inc. the original free one.

This is the final breakdown of 22 total players including an unofficial shadow player we had following.
3 players had 2 squares
1 player had 3 squares
6 players had 4 squares
5 players had 5 squares
5 players had 6 squares
1 player had 7 squares
1 player had 8 squares

To me, that looks like a pretty decent distribution, and the game didn't go the weeks that was anticipated at the outset.  I wouldn't change anything, but that's me.

Edited to add: One player was sitting on 4 in a row with only 2 natural draw hits.
Edited to add: All of the players sitting on 4 in a row used both free squares except one who used only the surprise freebie.

5 players had 5 squares
5 players had 6 squares
1 player had 7 squares (winner)
1 player had 8 squares

So I kinda DID win.
