How to play Boma Bingo

Find your five.

1. Take your card. Enter the Discord display name your Coven knows, including spaces and emoji, and confirm it before taking your card. Your 25 moments stay put when you refresh.
2. Mark the chaos. Tap a moment when it happens. Tap again to undo. Five across, down, or diagonally makes BINGO. There’s no free square.
3. Make it known. Tap Claim BINGO!, check your saved display name, confirm the moments happened, then tap Send my BINGO.

A glowing line makes Claim BINGO! available. You can still undo a mark. Once your claim goes through, your card locks and your receipt appears.

The Keeper of Cards checks the moments and makes the final call.

Fresh cards. Familiar chaos.

9:30 PM Eastern

New game-night cards

9:45 PM Eastern

Claims open

These times follow Eastern daylight saving time. Midnight does not start a new game night. If the app is closed at reset, it catches up when you return.

Your last 14 bingos stay in Saved wins on this browser. New entries appear after you submit a claim.

Carry your proof of chaos.

The notice beneath your card shows the Keeper’s latest decision. It updates automatically while open; use the refresh icon beside it to check again.

After sending your BINGO, choose Copy validation link or Save receipt image. View receipt opens your full receipt, including Share validation link. Post from the Discord account with the same display name shown on your receipt. The image, linked card and Discord sender should match.

You have one claim per browser per active round. Another device or cleared site data cannot recover your old card by name alone. Display names are not verified Discord identities. A pending receipt is awaiting the Keeper’s call; the shared validation link opens the locked desk, where the Keeper checks the current round and decision.

A fresh circle.

If the Keeper starts a fresh round, everyone starts together. Confirm your display name again, receive a new card and make a new claim. Earlier links expire, including links from earlier tonight. The regular 9:30 PM Eastern reset also expires the previous round’s links.

Your pocket bingo.

Installing is optional. If you install, do it before you start playing and use that same app for the whole night.

Open the app online and wait for Ready for offline play. An installed app may have its own card and save, so check before switching. Don’t use private browsing or clear site data during a game you want to keep.

If the connection wanders.

An already-loaded card can still be marked and saved offline. A new night’s card, a claim submission, and the Keeper’s latest decision need a connection.

If sending is interrupted, reconnect and try again with the same card. The server returns its original claim if it already arrived. Claim order follows the time the server receives it, not the time on your device; offline wins are not backdated.

When an app update appears, tap Refresh app when you’re ready. Saved marks stay with this browser. If the game says saving is unavailable, keep it open until saving works again.

Your name in the circle.

Your claim page shows your display name, submitted board, arrival time, decision, and any message from the Keeper of Cards. Anyone with your personal receipt URL can read that receipt. The link you copy for Discord opens the protected Keeper desk. Use your Coven name, not private contact details.
