Hi everyone,
Now that we’ve upgraded (phew) and Mojo has made his debut, we’re hosting a party to celebrate! Don’t worry, it’s not one of those corny holiday parties where everyone wears party hats and cheesy sweaters - although you’re welcome to if you like =) This is a BINGO party - free cards, fun chat, and cash prizes!
When? Friday, January 18th from 5pm to 9pm EST
Where? The Party Room
Agenda? 4 whole hours of $10 FREE GAMES and consolation prizes - woo hoo!
Directions? Log into www.bingomania.com on Jan 18th at 5pm
Who’s all invited? All maniacs who have funded within the past three months
If you’re not eligible for the invite but would still like to attend, you can certainly make a deposit and contact our support staff, and we’ll extend the invite. Now we know some of you have been blue because easy funding is temporarily unavailable, so if you positively can’t make an eWallet deposit or are waiting for your eWallet account to be verified (long process sometimes, we sympathize), do give us a call or e-mail support and we’ll work something out - we don’t want anybody missing out!
We sent out e-mail invites to everyone on the guest list, so check your mailboxes please…
Hope to see you all there!
Friendly notes:
“I didn’t get an e-mail invite but I wanna come!!” <— If this is you, please don’t post a comment on the blog - it is likely to get lost among all the others! Please e-mail support@bingomania.com or call us toll free at 1-877-77-BINGO
“I still can’t access www.bingomania.com!” <— If this is you, please don’t post a comment on the blog for the same reason! Please e-mail helpme@bingomania.com if you are having this problem.

And a major thanky-poos to all of you for keeping the faith while we gave Little Rusty the send-off he deserves. He’s now tucked up cosily in the flower beds, next to the nasturtiums and good old Pebbles. (The hamster.) Just kidding, his off to enjoy his retirement plans.
Little Rusty’s final act was to hold strong for his successor, Mojo. (*Sobs*) It was one of the gutsiest things I ever saw.
Anyway, Mojo is here for good now. And it’s the start of a bright and bouncy and probably slightly lunatic new era. Mojo is rugged, powerful and handsome with a washboard tummy that comes fully loaded with a spanking new version of BingoMania.com. He’s the Antonio Banderas of bingo servers : =)
What’s New:
So what does this mean for our loyal customers (that’s you, BTW)?
- Greater stability
- New and better bingo version (check out what’s new here)
- New room logos and bingo room skins
- New game lobby with easier navigation
- Improved website navigation
Say hello to Mojo and try out the new, improved, washes-even-whiter BingoMania.com community.
To see a list of all the latest goodies, visit our “what’s new” page.
please note - if you’re still having trouble accessing the new bingomania.com home page, please see some of the tips included in the comment box below or call us toll-free: 1-877-77-BINGO (24646) for more help.

Hi Everyone!
First and foremost, I would like to thank all of you for being so fantastic for the past few weeks. We here at BingoMania really appreciate everyone’s help and support while Little Rusty is taking his final bow before he retires. Thank you to those who helped us beta test Mojo - our new shiny BingoMania server. I’m proud to announce that Mojo will officially become Rusty’s successor on Monday, January 14th!
What does this mean to you?
- Bingomania.com will be offline starting at 7am EST on Monday, January 14th until 9pm EST the same day. We will keep you posted on the blog on the progress of our big move and give you updated time estimates
- Bingomania will have a completely new design – (see screenshots below)
- Nickelbingo and Bonkers4Bingo will redirect existing players to www.bingomania.com as we’re combining all our partner sites into one
- The following rooms will be available on the new system: High Roller, Super High Roller, Nicknacks, Money Pot, Loony Bin, Lucky Lane, Nuthouse, Fair & Square, and Second Chance. The Party Room will be open for special free rolls and tourneys. All rooms will have wacky new designs!
- New features including: Bingo Bets, mini-slots, consolation prizes, e-cards, ability to upload pics to our gallery, loads of new games, more jackpots, and Keno will be back!
- We will start rolling out the welcome wagon with 150% deposit bonus day for all deposits and 150% + $10 for all deposits over $50 as soon as we move.
We’re taking this weekend to say farewell to our poor old friend Little Rusty, and look forward to welcoming our new server Mojo on Monday! Mojo is still closed for some final touches and testing, so all those peeps who snuck in to play there have been graciously escorted out 
We know it will be a big change for everyone, and we have been working really hard to ensure that it will be a change for the better. We’re all here behind the scenes, super excited about our big move, we’ve been fussing over all the details like nervous hosts preparing for a big party. And what a party it will be!
Look forward to seeing you all there!
Warm Wishes,
Stuart
Update: The new server will now be going live at 9 p.m. We are working really hard to have the site ready for you, but do not want to put it up until it is perfect. Sorry for the inconvenience.

It’s quieter than a sleeping baby (in swaddling clothes) around here at the BingoMania HQ, as majority from our maniac team are on holidays. Yes, I do occasionally let our Maniacs take a break : = D
Before I turned the key on their handcuffs, however, I did make sure your fun would bubble over into the New Year here at BingoMania.com. Yep, we’ve decided to host several fun-filled specials for you.

Hi Everyone!
First off we would like to thank everyone who helped us test our new server yesterday - you guys are fantastic! For those of you who weren’t there, Mojo was smooth as a cucumber and everything went really well. We will be touching up the new server over the holidays and have set the launch date for January 9th, 2008. Until then, we are doing our best to keep Little Rusty problem-free, which is why we are having maintenance downtime. We should have our games up and running before the end of the day, and will keep you updated here on ManiaStu.
UPDATE: We are pleased to announce that our games are BACK ONLINE… again 
We apologize again for our recent downtime, but hope that you enjoyed the free games. All your Bingo winnings will be credited into your accounts by Monday.
Again, thank you everyone, you’ve been absolutely amazing! We really appreciate your understanding and thank you for your support. As a thank you, we have extended our 150% deposit bonus every day up to and including Wednesday.
Warm holiday wishes,
The BingoMania Team

I’ll keep the community updated on his recovery.
GET WELL SOON BILL!

Hi all!
We have been experiencing a bit of difficulties with Lil Ol Rusty lately and had to do some maintenance on Sunday night. It’s running a little late, but not to worry! We should be up and running by 4PM EST today. In more good news, we are preparing Mojo our new server for his big debut. We will keep you posted on when to expect his appearance.
Meanwhile, please bare with us and we promise to have you shouting Bingo in no time! Thank you all so much for your patience and understanding, we’re all here behind the scenes working really hard to make sure BingoMania is ready for you as soon as possible.
Sincerely,
The BingoMania family
Update: we are still working on resolving the issue and will have the site ready for everyone as soon as possible. Again, thank you for your patience =)

The Christmas Holidays are my favorite time of the year – a time for friends, family and of course some well deserved time off from work : D
But one part of the Holidays that I dread, is the creative thought process that goes into finding the right gift to show my appreciation to a loved one. And let’s not forget the overcrowded shopping centers.
 |
Over the years, I’ve used online shopping to alleviate the stress of retail shopping during the holidays. But each year, like many folks, I’ve struggled with the gift ideas part. So for this year, I did some poking around the World Wide Web and found several great ideas!
If you want to show your appreciation with a little creativity, then you’ll find these sources helpful.

Quick update on the “Little Rusty” and his successor “Mojo” – today -(Wednesday, December 5th)-a sample of our players have been randomly* selected to help test the new server.
If the test goes well Today, then in the next week or so we hope to wave goodbye to Little Rusty and welcome Mojo as the new Bingomania.com server . At which time we will kick off the celebration with possibly some free games for all of our loyal members.
Thanks again for all your patience and I’ll keep you updated on Mojo’s progress.
*As we only needed a small group of members to test try Mojo, we felt it would be fair to run a script to determine our test group instead of selecting members based on any specific criteria. If your name wasn’t randomly selected, our apologies.
