Slingo

[Chick]

Could someone explain to me how to play slingo. I can't find a 'how to play' button and I have no idea what is going on.

/me thinks it's a bad idea to join a tournament without knowing how to play the game.

hiya chick.... check the ''how to play'' thread.... it is mentioned in there... but briefly its just a slot game and pot luck :D

[Chick]

thanks Cez, only - I cant find the how to play thread, and neither can search... tee hee.

Its luck more than anythng..

Bit like bingo, your numbers come up on the bottom when you click the big round buton.

If any numbers come up underneath and you have them on your main card, click on them. (it has to be in that row though)

**When you complete lines, you make money.

**When you complete your whole card you get a bonus. (as well as the money per line)

**When you get a coin in your bottom row, you get money.

**When you get a 'joker - guy with the green bib thing - chose any number you want, not necesarily in that row

** The devil is bad! Get him and you lose money, unless a little cupid bloke pops up and saves you.

** you get (I think) 16 free number draws, from then on you pay 500, 1000, 1500 etc up to the 20th draw.

** if you get a free spin, you can use it in the last couple of draws instead of paying...

MY ADVICE ON FREE DRAWS - use them on your most expensive paying ones (ie: 19th and 20th draws) so you save money ;)

hope this makes sense.. practice before you tackle the tournament as slingo is timed and if you don't click your numbers on your card quick enough, you might miss that chance.

Makes brilliant sense thanks so much. Apart from the first bit as highlighted. ie: Which row. I am sure to figure it out.

Naturally I did score big time in the practice game, which I tried after the tournament game - lol.

in that row = basically the line directly above the number you drew.

(although they wouldn't be anywhere else really)

Just you cross off all the numbers you get :D

Ahhh, now that you wrote it slowly I understand, thanks so much Peas. Although being in a tournament with Yarrumsg seems frutile.
