    Danztoy24 voted for wickedwench’s pumpkin..
    Is the most original and the only one having to do with bingo and since this is a bingo site I believe the thought and originality takes precedence over who likes whoever better…this aint a popularity contest its a pumpkin contest..

    good luck wench and forget all the negative comments u hear in chat.. some people are just rude and inconsiderate.

    Thanks Wicked…..I did contact them again and they found it. It was overlooked and marketing said they weren’t sure if it could be added or not but it was forwarded to the guy who does the page. Happy Halloween to you also and gl everyone in the tourney tomorrow night.

    I think everyone did a great job. The contest wasn’t stated to have to deal with bingo. In my opinion it was about creativity and doing something different with a pumpkin and that’s something we all did. I think all of us deserve to win and everyone did a fantastic job. Don’t let anyone say anything less! =)

    I think the pumpkins look great! I’m surprised that more people did not submit an picture.
    My husband enjoys carving pumpkins and every year strives to improve. Thanks, to Bingomania for giving us the opportunity to share our pictures. I’m new to this site and think it is great.
    I hope everyone enjoys our carved pumpkin.

    I am not sure about the multiple votes. But there are 3 differnet players living here, each have their own computers and do play bingo here. They voted and are all under the same IP address because they are all linked to the same network. So I am curious about that also because if it goes by IP address then I would lose 3 votes.

CALLED ME A POOR SPORT..BUT AT 5PM..I WAS IN 3RD PLACE! LET’S SEE WHAT MANIA DOES..AS FAR AS THE MULTIPLE ACTS? STEVE AND I PLAY HERE AS WELL..BUT WE HAVE DIFFERENT SERVERS..DONT KNOW HOW THAT WORKS..BUT I AM TICKED OFF ABOUT THE VOTING BEING ALLOWED TO CONTINUE…HOPE THE TECHS KNOW WHAT THEY R DOING WHEN TALLYING UP THE VOTES!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

    I do not know why votes kept coming afterward. Perhaps at that time they took a tally of the votes that came in and did not count the ones that came after? Maybe there is a lag from the time we see the votes post to the time they are actually cast? I am not sure, but I agree that it would be unfair to count any after 5 pm since that was the stated end of the voting period.

    But someone must win and I am a “cat person” I was naturally attracted to the cat sillouette. Again, thanks all who participated. You guys are the BOMB!!

    The poll didn’t close at 5pm EST because our server time is on UK time zone … yikes! The poll actually closed at 10pm ET, instead of 4pm.

    But have no fear, fortunately the extended five (5) hours didn’t skew the overall results.

    Wicked Wench, our records do indicate you had 3rd place at 5pm.

    I’ll have the final results posted in a bit.

    Thanks again!
