Bingo Format and Scoring
This section specifies what game and scoring format your Bingo Game will use. Some settings are set by default when you initially create a Bingo Game.
Points Mode
In this mode, your players earn points for marking a called square on their Bingo Card and for every Bingo line they obtain. Your players are then ranked in real-time on the Rankings Leaderboard based on how many points they earn. The player with the most points at the end wins. In this section, you can set different scoring options for your Bingo Game.
Points Mode Options
These options are for further configuring how participants earn points in your Bingo Game.
Decreasing Points Per Bingo
By default, Decreasing Points Per Bingo is enabled. When enabled, this awards your players more points to players who win bingos earlier and fewer points as more squares are called throughout the game. Disabling this setting will award the same amount of points for each player's bingo, which is set in the Points Per Bingo option. Use this mode for your Bingo Game if you want to keep your audience on their toes; they'll need to search and mark their card quickly in this fast-paced mode.
Award Points Per Square
When this setting is enabled, players earn points for every square they mark on their cards. The points are defined by the Points Per Square setting as discussed below. If you disable this setting, players will not earn any points for each bingo square they mark.
Points Per Bingo & Points Per Square
Editing these settings lets you set a point value that your participants will be awarded for each Bingo they obtain and/or each square they mark on their card.
To edit the Points Per Bingo or Points Per Square values, click the green Edit (Pencil) button. Type how many points you want in the box, or you can use the up and down arrows on your keyboard.
Make sure to click the green Save (Checkmark) button afterward to save your changes. The blue Cancel (X) will cancel the changes.
Multi-Game Rankings
Multi-Game Rankings allow you to link additional Bingo and/or Trivia Games to the current Bingo Game in order to display an additional overall cumulative Multi-Game Rankings Leaderboard during your Bingo Game. At any time during your Bingo Game, you can display the Rankings Leaderboard for this Bingo Game only and the Multi-Game Rankings Leaderboard for this Bingo Game including all the Bingo and Trivia Games added in the below panel. This is a great way to show an event-wide winner or a "day winner" when running multiple types of games. For more details, check out Multi-Game Rankings & Rounds Explained.
Use this setting to specify which Bingo and/or Trivia Games you want to include in your Multi-Game Rankings.
Multi-Game Rankings list
To link any your other Bingo or Trivia Games, simply click the checkbox next to its name on this list. A checkmark will appear in the box and the label on the right will change from red to green with a new label that indicates Included.
Upon adding one or more Bingo or Trivia Games to your Multi-Game Rankings, a new button will light up under the Viewer Controls section of the Experience Dashboard called Show Multi-Game Rankings (M).
Toggling the Show Multi-Game Rankings (M) switch on
To display your Multi-Game Rankings Leaderboard, use the Show Multi-Game Rankings (M) button. You can also set this view to display automatically for a Fully Automatic Mode Bingo Experience by enabling the appropriate Automatic Viewer Setting under the Bingo Game Playback & Timing section.
