Upcoming Contest: Bingo Player of the Month

Fri, Feb 13, 2009 at 2:26 pm Posted in Announcements 39 Comments Posted by Joel, Community Manager

[update March 2, 2009]: The Bingo Vega member of the month page is now available from the promotion page or directly via this link.

Hey All!

We would appreciate your feedback on making a good promotion GREAT!

Bingo Vega Member of the Month

It will be a month long special… Member of the Month will win a GREAT prize!

The prizes have not yet been finalized, but we are thinking of some cools prizes such as…

  1. A Laptop
  2. Digital Camera
  3. $500 shopping spree gift certificate to Amazon.com
  4. $500 shopping spree at Walmart
  5. All Member of the Month winners would be entered into the end of the year prize as well.

Rules: (suggestions) … here are some ideas:

  • Every week 10 players are entered into the contest based on number of games played, time spent at Vega,  friends referred, active on the community blog and in chat, and amount deposited.
  • Every week a CM nominates two players from chat that have shown the commoradity that’s important to Vega (active in chat games, helpful to other members, all around good character)
  • Then on our end, we’ll randomly select several players based on games played, amount of deposit
  • We will announce that week’s nominees on our bingo blog and vega bingo player of the month page
  • At the end of the month we’ll do a random “live draw”

Any feedback you can give is always welcome and very helpful!

Thank you!

Beth

    Ohhh I think that will be alot of fun. Sounds great !!!!

  12. 12VegasHoCat on Feb 17, 2009 at 4:47 pm:

    One of the gifts could be, like we have Mother of the year for Mother's day? How about Bonus Bucks once a month for a year…amount to be determined, lol.

  13. 13Christina McKee on Feb 18, 2009 at 9:45 am:

    I love this site!!!! You have the best payouts and bbs and now this. I dont think you could make it any better. Your ideas for the prizes are great but what about letting the winner choose one of several options. Everyone had different needs, I would take the 500 walmart card, but know several people that would choose the camera. Just a thought. Regardless, I will continue to be a loyal member of vega. Keep up the great work!

  14. 14mckeemom on Feb 18, 2009 at 9:49 am:

    Try this again lol….I LOVE THIS SITE!!! you have the best payouts and bbs and now this..The prizes you are offering are great but what about letting the winner choose one of several prizes since everyone has different needs. Regardless, I will continue to be a loyal vega player. Keep up the good work!!

  15. 15CM Bridget on Feb 19, 2009 at 9:41 am:

    Hugsss,
    CM Bridget : )

  16. 16screamb on Feb 19, 2009 at 10:15 am:

    Beth,
    I think its a great idea! I've met so many wonderful players glad I don't have to pick!. Great prizes I like laptop, and 500 gift certificates, lots of people have cameras but lets see theres blu-ray players,wii,flatscreens etc. very exciting Lmao if theres a prize for being in corner the longest I may qualify! Really amazing vega is great games Great Cms Great Players

  17. 17turkeygoose on Feb 20, 2009 at 2:49 pm:

    honk honk e1 i think member of the month is a great ideal to win prizes im not a negative turkey always positive love the site cms roomies its the best but the key word you said was amount of deposit!!! in this day and age of whats going on with husbands loosing jobs from layoffs doors closing having to go on unemployment money is tight for everybody but i still come up with whats in my budget to play and i think alot of roomies will agree with me are chances are very slim being picked so to me is it really all about money ??? or who we really are that has made bingo vega the site it is i have not really won big here but i still play here please look at the deposit amount in a different way please honk honk turkeygoose

  18. 18Vegablogger on Feb 23, 2009 at 2:44 pm:

    hi turkeygoose, this is Joel … we totally understand and couldn't agree more with you. That's why the criteria for the promotion is not just based on deposits, in fact the deposit criteria will only require that a member has funded at least once or more in the past 30 days so we ensure the player of the month nominees are active vega members. Beth will have complete announcement soon about all the details … super excited to launch this special in March.

  19. 19WILDFIREXOX on Feb 23, 2009 at 5:42 pm:

    I THINK THIS IS A GOOD IDEA, HOWEVER, THOSE OF US TO CHOSE TO PLAY OUT OF CHT SEEMED TO BE PENALIZED.. I HAVE GONE INTO CHAT ON SEVERAL OCCASSIONS AND THE ROOMIES ARE NOT FRIENDLY AT ALL.. I DONT KNOW WHAT CAN BE DONE ABOUT THAT, BUT THIS IS THE REASON I PLAY OUT OF CHAT!

  20. 20turkeygoose on Feb 25, 2009 at 9:21 pm:

    Hmmmmmmm what I love about this site is everything !!!!!!! Honk Honk Turkeygoose

  21. 21Vegablogger on Feb 26, 2009 at 3:41 pm:

    @wildfirexox thanks for your comment. At Vega we pride ourselves for having great CMs and a wonderful roomies who are friendly. At times, regular roomies in chat get hot under the color about games and different topics, this is normal and we think it adds a certain spice to the chat experience. I'd welcome your suggestions about any ideas you may have to make Vega's chat experience even more exciting…feel free to email me your suggestions hallmanager@bingovega.com

    Now regards the member of the month – although being a roomie helps your chances at qualifying for the draw, it's not a must. We'd love all of our members to participate in chat but understand some players like to play bingo without chat and that's fine too. So don't worry, there are many ways to qualify. Good luck!

    You guys are the best! As if it wasn't great playing here before! I am so excited for the new contest. Thank you Vega for being the best place to feed my addiction!

  23. 23Iansmomm on Feb 28, 2009 at 1:45 pm:

    I really like that you guys are taking into account all the different factors of being a vega player for this player of the month promo! i definately agree on the amount of games played and time spent at Vega ( maybe if its even just in chat? Some people may be out of $$, but want to come in and chat with their roomies and CM'S!), amount of $$ deposited, active in blog and chat, etc…..There's only one thing I'm on the fence on. I like the nominee suggestion, but I really think it should be a decision between the CM's, Joel, Beth, and anyone else involved. If it's going to be a monthly thing, possibly there could be a rule that you can only win the POM every so many months (like 6 months??) I'm just not quite feeling the random draw…but you guys know best!!!! We love you guys and Vega, it's definately part of our daily lives….some of us would'nt have a life without it!!! LOL

    Hello Guys!
    Love the idea of a player of the month, and I think it's great that you are basing it on so many different factors!! I like the idea of being nominated, but I'm on the fence on the random draw at the end of the month. I think personnally this should be decided (voted upon, whatever)by the CM'S that spend so much time with us, and maybe they give their personal nomination, then Beth and Joel make the final decision? Maybe there should be a rule in place that you can only win POM every so often? (3 months?) I'm also not feeling the amount of referrals…I'm sure many many of us have referred people, but the just don't join. Or, maybe they don't know anyone to refer! I love this site and the CM'S so much, and for almost all of us it's a part of our daily routine, even our lives! Keep up the great work, and I know we all appreciate the fact that you are including us in the site and helping to make decisions to make it even better!!!

  25. 25Iansmomm on Feb 28, 2009 at 2:16 pm:

    The only other thing I can think of would if you DID go with the 10 nominees…..is to maybe give the other 9 something along the line of a $20 gift card for Amazon, etc….or let them choose it in BB'S instead??

  26. 26bingobunz on Mar 1, 2009 at 5:01 pm:

    Sounds like a lot of fun….and being that its being based on so many different aspects…it gives everyone a good chance at being selected…..and they prizes are great….very nice promo !!

  30. 30dawn410 on Mar 2, 2009 at 1:47 am:

    I love the idea of a player of the month. Which give everybody a fair chance at win. I also love the idea that we get to help pick the winner.

  31. 3114mary48 on Mar 26, 2009 at 12:02 pm:

    I was so excited to be added to the list of people in the player of the month contest. Good luck to everyone !

  32. 32laniew on Mar 29, 2009 at 6:51 pm:

    I think this is the neatest contest….all the nominees are great roomies!

  33. 33pebblesluvsred on May 3, 2009 at 12:11 am:

    hi i hope there are different nominees for april than march since ive been here for four years and wasnt nominated last month lol

  34. 34vette63 on May 9, 2009 at 7:24 pm:

    I like the new look of bingovega, but I wish bingovega would go back to the 200% on the bingo bucks, it is much better for the players, I have played bingo at other online bingo parlors and don't go back because of the small amount of bingo bucks u can earn, plz bingo vega don't start being like them, we liked the way it was before.

    Thank you

  35. 35vette63 on May 9, 2009 at 7:38 pm:

    I love the idea of player of the month but u need to nominate different ppl and not the same ones all the time, there are other players here at bingo vega that would love to be nominated and meet and the requirements but never seem to get nominated.

  36. 36Joel on May 9, 2009 at 7:45 pm:

    Our goal is to nominate those who deserve recognition. Unfortunately, we can only nominate 100 in a month, which are picked randomly based on our criteria. We hope to continually improve our selection process. As you might know, we had only 40 nominees for March's draw, and this month we will have 100 hopefuls.

    I have to tell you that Bingo Vega is the best bingo site online. I have played at other sites, but the CM's that you have here are so helpful and always cheery and asking how everyone is doing. I have nominated Ladonna over and over on CM of the month, she's great I love playing in her rooms. Anyways keep up the great work and I'm ready to see what you have in store for us next month. Joel was in the room the other day and said he has a few surprises, can't wait. Love you guys, crosschecker
