A few days ago, a good friend of mine, sent me a video and after watching it, I was in awe. A great story! One that might just leave you in awe too. It has to be one of the greatest stories I’ve come across — inspiring, moving and breathtaking.

I think you’ll enjoy it as well.

Fine Print in BingoPersonally, I’m not a fan of small print and hard to read policies when I shop or join a site online. So here at BingoMania.com we felt it never would be appropriate to have small print or funny rules on our site either.

There have been numerous debates here at our Bingo HQ between myself and the team about whether we should make it mandatory for our members who win a classic bingo mania prize to submit their picture and testimonial.

At the present, we give all of our winners the choice to send in their picture.

We would love to always give you a choice but it seems not many of our members take the extra step to send in a picture and quote after a big win.

Naturally this creates anxiety and suspicion amongst our members when a member wins a big bingo jackpot and we have no picture or testimonial to share with them.

WHAT DO YOU THINK? Should we make it mandatory for you to send in a picture and quote on wins over $1,000?

What would you do with ... ?I have a confession to make – at BingoMania we love giving away big jackpots : ) … that’s no news is it? On a SERIOUS note - our Money Pot progressive jackpot has climbed up to $29,512.86.

I would love to hear some of your ideas, as to what would you do, if you won the $29,000+ bingo jackpot.

And lastly, do you know who won the last $25,000+ bingo jackpot at Mania?

From time to time, you’ll find funny videos uploaded on our blog that have nothing to do with bingo but will certainly add a smile to your face.

And here’s one of those times – put your volume up, sit back and enjoy this 15 sec small video.

Thank you!I’m too loving our blog and glad to see many of our loyal bingo maniacs sharing their thoughts and suggestions with us. It means a lot … and all the comments are the life line for the success of the blog and our community.

If you’ve got something on your mind, we’re listening, please let us know.

Over the last couple of days, we’ve received tons of great suggestions. I want to summarize all the wonderful suggestions on today’s post, and see realistically what’s possible.

Suggestion: 150% Bonus Every Day
By: gallopingranny
My thought:

We’ve never been a site that offered the highest bonuses, because by giving out more bonuses we wouldn’t be able to continue to offer the prizes that we do. Over the years, we’ve managed to cut back on unnecessary expenses so we can afford to offer our member’s competitive bonus specials like our 2x per week 150% bonus, minimum 50% reload bonus and loyalty bonuses. We are also always investing in projects that we think make Bingomania different from the other bingo sites out there.

That all being said, I think its fair to say that we‘ve proven that you can count on us, we will always find new ways to help you stretch your money at BingoMania. And best of all, when you win big, we pay you:)

Suggestion: Change patterns more often
By: dewdropinn81 & Darlene
My thought:

I agree with your suggestion. Shame on us. I’ll speak with GM Bill and Jordan, and we will start changing our patterns more often.

Suggestion: Quickie games
By: abbingo winner & alwaysone
My thought:

I like this idea, we had plans for launching a quickie special room, not sure why we never went forward with it. I’ll speak with GM Bill and see what options we have. Thanks!

Suggestion: Show loyalty points to players
By: Rachy Rays
My thought:

You’ll be glad to know on the upcoming redesign of bingomania.com, this feature will be available.

Suggestion: Nakid Bingo Hour
By: NyBill
My thought:

Wow, you got my attention with this suggestion … how do you see this session playing out?

Suggestion: Slots & Bingo Tourney
By: Mooners44
My thought:

Currently, we have our weekly Bingo tourney on Friday Nights. In the very near future, we might add one big monthly tournament to the mix … this way, you’ll have our $12,000 Friday Bingo Tourney and once a month a bigger bingo tourney. I’m thinking we can start this late October, early November. We will keep you posted.We use to have a weekend Slots and Video Poker Tourney … unfortunately, not many of our members participated, so we stopped the tourney. It seemed that every other bingo site out there runs a similar event. At Mania, we try to offer you a different entertainment experience from what is currently offered at any one of our competitors. That’s not always easy…lol. With that said, we’ve got some ideas brewing here at the BingoMania HQ and hope it will be enjoyed by our Video Poker and Slots players. Stay tuned.

From: ABingoWinner:

Today let us take a few moments to remember the innocent who lost their lives in the most horrendous attack in this nation’s history…911.

Let’s extend our thoughts and prayers to the families and friends of those who were lost.

Let’s honor the selfless men and women of our Armed Forces who keep this country safe and work to prevent future attacks.

We did it – we finally have a blog! What … what’s a blog? And what is ManiaStu?

welcomeA blog is an online journal and ManiaStu is a transparent journal for the BingoMania.com community members. My hope is that the ManiaStu blog will give you a chance to look inside the BingoMania HQ and get to know us better. We will discuss everything and anything ranging from the Bingo Maniac culture to Celebrity Gossip.

This is our first shiny post – but before I dive into this thing called blogging and start writing my heart out, I’d like to hear from you: Please send any ideas and suggestions as to what you’d like me to talk about on our bingo blog.

So let me ask you this: what would you like to see discussed on the ManiaStu Blog?

Oh, the first 10 members who leave a good suggestion will be thanked with a small thank you BB : ).
