		<description>It is not one specific event or series of games, as in the free games, that I would call same winner tragedy, but an overall look at  a week or 2 of games that is quite compelling in the fact that the same people seem to have continuing luck in the free game. &lt;br&gt;With over 100 people usually getting the free cards, I note that the same pay to play winners( who win in paygames) ALWAYS win at least one game without a couple days passing.&lt;br&gt; If someone did no play inthe pay to play games a long time ofcourse, they would  not recognize the same names as familiar.&lt;br&gt;I can sure recognize  a name that is UNfamiliar in the free room, and they are far and few in between.&lt;br&gt;Same winner seems to be all over the online bingo arena. The ony thing I can conclude is that those lucky people are spending big bucks to  increaseodds and that is the PRIMARY way to be a same winner. Have to be content being a fringe player that might win a gamenow and then, or go whole hog and join those that deposit hundreds or thousands monthly. OR..just stop playing online bingo in the face of an epidemic same winner syndrome.&lt;br&gt;I think Bingovega does an excellent job of adressing that issue and is one of a few sites thatwill evenrecognize it as a real concern instead of &quot;disruntled player attitude&quot; and ignoring it.</description>

		<description>Same winners to  me means whenever I log in to play there is a group of players that take hold of the ensuing games and dominate the wins. Next time I log in, it may be a diffrent group, but all familiar names that are the steady winners. I heard a player &quot;complaining&quot; they deposited  over 1200.00 in a month and were tired of other players being resentful over their wins. NO ONE forces anyone to deposit, and the large depositors( just as the small ones) need to be reminded with the same impunity that it is&quot; gambling&quot;. Depositing large sums and maxing out may increase your chances, true,but if you feel you are entitled to wins because of your choices, you are altering the concept of gambling to suit your agenda.&lt;br&gt;As far as the free room...With over 100 people playing, it is next to a miracle that Pay to Play famliar names win on almost every session of free games. Some winning twice in one session.  I think it is all in the card distribution coupled with the fact (I beleive) that  the  software KNOWS the winning card before the game begins. The rng may be functioning properly and correctly, but what operation of random distribution &quot;gives&quot; the winner  the selected winning card? &lt;br&gt; have been seeing some people win almost assuredly in the free room almost every time they play and have seen players win in a pay room at the same time they win in the free room. Coincidence? Perhaps, but it should be a million to one possibity of it occuring very often.&lt;br&gt;The realityof winning on one or two cards is a possibility, but chances are slim that will happen when competing with max out players, so be prepared to enjoy the chat, consider  the entertainment value your prime objectve. and get your &quot;WTG AGAIN&quot; stamp ready!</description>

		<description>Thanks for your comments, and maybe if you could post the winners of the fair and square room from this week, as I wasn&#039;t here, but I had a few friends who were concerned about the winners again.  I&#039;ve still been trying the free games, as I&#039;m limited until the first week in July and still no luck.  Still seems a persons odds should be a bit better.  What system did you say you use for cards?  By the way, your price for the $5000 game is so reasonable compared to the card prices for the $250 games.  Thanks again.</description>

		<description>Hi Marilyn, thanks for caring enough to provide us your valuable feedback. First, we&#039;ve started the community blog to give our members a voice at the community ... good or bad, we think all of our bingovegans should be able to voice their praises when we do the right things and critique us when you feel we&#039;re not living up to our promise to you. Just wanted to clarify that. &lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;Regards the guaranteed $1,000 and $2,500 prizes. In June, we revamped the Friday and Saturday special event by giving you more cash prizes to win. Previously, when we hosted the $1,000 games, the prize pool for Fridays was around $3,500 in total prizes and Saturdays around $5,000. Now, the new and improved Special Events are bigger then before as we award over $6,000 on Fridays and over $7,000 guaranteed cash on Saturdays.  &lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;As you&#039;ve probably noticed, each month we revamp the Friday and Saturday special events to make these fun nights as exciting as possible for you and your fellow bingovegans. I would argue that although we&#039;re not hosting $1,000 guaranteed games in June, we&#039;re giving away more cash prizes and spreading the odds for all members by hosting more $250 and $325 guaranteed games. We&#039;ve also added a few exciting $25,000 coveralls with a minimum $500 pot. And as you&#039;ve pointed out, more free bingo games then ever before. &lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;On top of the specials, you&#039;ll have a chance at $5,000 guaranteed coverall game in 75 calls at the end of the month. &lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;When July rolls in, you can expect another revamped Friday and Saturday special event. And we&#039;ll certainly look at ways to offer more of the $1,000 guaranteed games you&#039;ve come to love along with the guaranteed $250 bingo pots.&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;Regards same winner&#039;s winning, I&#039;ve heard this from several players on this post and I&#039;ve followed each concern by investigating the games in question. For example, the Fair N&#039; Square which played last Wednesday, i&#039;ve published the winners list for each game and I haven&#039;t seen any signs of same winner&#039;s winning. &lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;Thanks again for your feedback and we&#039;ll work harder next month to bring you more of the guaranteed $1,000 pots you love.</description>

		<description>Hi,&lt;br&gt;You might not print this, but I had a few friends join because I was bragging up the big guaranteed jackpots on Saturdays.  It seems like you got a bunch of new members and now have upped the game prices, to where some of us on limited incomes cannot afford to buy tickets, and you&#039;ve lowered the guaranteed pots.  Every now and then before, it was worth it to spend a dollar a card for a chance to win $1000, or $2500 and a person could buy a few. Looks like my friends and I will not be spending as much as we were on here, as our chances are nil.  Also, noticed the same winners time and time again on the games.  I do love that you have free games and thank you for that, but you would think a person&#039;s odds were a little better there, but I play the free games all the time and haven&#039;t hit a free game for ages.  Just thinking it was better with your bigger guaranteed pots and some of us could compete with some of these people that deposit thousands of dollars.  When you&#039;re on a limited income, you can&#039;t, and you can&#039;t win with one card hardly ever.  The fair n square is good too, but seem to have the same winners again on that eve.  Anyway, just liked it the way it was before you upped the game prices and made it hard for some of us to compete at all.  Thanks for listening.</description>
