Rules

  • A new game begins every 3 to 5 minutes.

  • A new ball is called every 7 to 10 seconds. The speed with which Paramount Bingo draws the balls is constant; however you may experience intermittent delays due to your internet connection.

  • You select the number of cards to play using the 'Buy Cards' button.

  • The system will automatically register a valid bingo for you. If your connection to the game is interrupted, the system will continue to monitor your cards and register a valid bingo win should you get it.

  • Each game has its own pattern for the bingo. Only the pattern shown in the top area of the playing window for each game will be a valid bingo.

  • It is possible to have multiple cards with a bingo. In the case of multiple winners, each card with bingo is awarded a share of the prize.

  • Only ONE account allowed per person. Creating multiple accounts could result in all accounts being disabled.


Modes Of Play

The cards are ordered vertically in sets of threes. Arrows allow you to scroll up and down to look at or change the cards.

When the game begins, Paramount Bingo automatically follows the balls for you and marks the drawn numbers in the cells of your cards; you cannot mark or clear numbers on the cards. The program automatically organizes your cards after every next ball is called. The card that is closest to winning bingo is placed on the first position of the first row. The second-closest card is on the second position, and so on. Use the numbers of the cards and the 'Cards' area to the right to track the changes.

Paramount Bingo also tells you when you have bingo. The border of the winning card becomes red. The system will automatically register your bingo for you.

The number of cards with which you play is set using the 'Buy Card' button. To change the default value of the number of cards to play, change the amount of cards within the Auto Play feature corresponding to the card value desired.

The Paramount Bingo playing window is divided into several areas. Each area displays certain information about the game or provides access to other features.


Bingo Pattern

Bingo Pattern

The area in the top right section of the playing window displays the pattern for the current game. The bingo pattern displays the winning combination of boxes that you need to mark on one or more of your cards in order to have a bingo and win the prize. Patterns change from game to game - two successive games may or may not have the same pattern. The pattern shown during a game is valid only for that game. Paramount Bingo uses two types of patterns: static and moving.

STATIC. In the static pattern, the configuration of filled boxes does not change within a game. You must mark a winning card with exactly this pattern. There is only one combination that works.

MOVING. A moving pattern is one whose configuration changes more than once within a single game. Marking any of the appearing configurations qualifies a winning card. For example, if the moving pattern is a horizontal line, you can claim bingo when you have any of the rows, in any of the cards.


Balls in Play

Balls in Play

The area to the left of the bingo pattern shows all bingo balls that are in play in the game on the number board; that is, all the numbers drawn so far. When a number is called, it will blink on the number board and continue to blink until the next number is called. Every ball, when called, appears first in the Current Ball area and in the list of the 'Last Balls Called'.

The 75 Ball Bingo number board area has five rows, and each row is headed by a letter from the word BINGO. The numbers show up in the rows as follows:

B - 1 to 15
I - 16 to 30
N - 31 to 45
G - 46 to 60
O - 61 to 75


Current Game Prize

The game screen displays the value for both the prize and the jackpot for the current game. The prize for each game is either set or has a minimum value. For games with a minimum prize, for any amount it should go over the minimum, the prize is calculated based on the number of cards registered for the game; the more people playing, the larger the prize tends to be. The jackpot usually increases gradually with every game until someone wins it; then the jackpot is restarted at a minimum value. The prize and the jackpot shown here are valid only for the current game


Game Info

Game InfoGame Info

The upper right area, the 'Balls in Play', and the 'Last Balls' area show statistical information about the current game. The Game Info area has the following elements.

  • 'Total Cards' shows the number of cards registered for the game..
  • 'Card Price' displays the price of one card.
  • 'Total Price' is the total value that you paid for the cards you are playing in the current game. This amount is equal to the card price multiplied by the number of cards registered for the game.
  • 'Players' displays the number of all players signed up for the current game.
  • 'Jackpot' displays the current jackpot offered on that game.
  • 'Balls to JP' shows the number of balls remaining to winning the jackpot. The number gets smaller as every next ball is called. No one can win the jackpot in the current game when the number becomes zero.
  • 'Prize' displays the current prize for the game in play.
  • 'Balls' displays the number of balls that have been called. The number gets larger with every ball called.

Credits

The game screen displays your credits in the currency you selected upon registration. The Credits are one and the same for both Paramount Bingo and Paramount Bingo Slot. With the beginning of every new game, your credits are reduced by the price of the game. When you win a bingo, your credits are increased by the amount you have won. If the number of your credits is smaller than the price of an upcoming game, for instance, you have $2.50, and the game price is $3.00, you will not be allowed to play.  To add more credits, go to the credits page, by clicking the 'Cashier' button, and follow the onscreen instructions.


Last Balls

Last Balls The board appears in the center of the playing window and to the left of that, the last five drawn numbers are shown in the order in which they were called.

Every ball shows two things:

1. The number that is drawn and
2. The column to which that number belongs.

The 5 most recent balls drawn are shown to the left of the board. When the game begins and the first ball is drawn it appears.. A second ball is drawn and takes the place of the number drawn before that, which is moved 1 space over to the right. This applies to the first five balls. Every newly drawn ball takes the position of the ball preceding it. When all five positions are taken, as a new ball is drawn, the first position is taken by the ball on the second position, and the first ball disappears. In the example here, five balls were drawn in the order: 69 - 58 - 46 - 52 - 7. The Last Balls area is empty between two games.


Your Cards

Your CardsWhen you log in during a game, the 'Cards' area displays the message 'Game in Progress'. It means that you have to wait until that game is over before you can start playing.

Your cards for the game appear on the game screen. The cards are shown before the game begins so that you can change them if you like and register them for the game. All cards are generated randomly by the server. Each player receives a number of new cards every time they log on any client in Paramount Bingo. The cards stay the same for all games that follow unless the player decides to change them. Cards can be changed all at once or individually. To replace individual cards select the card(s) and click 'Replace Cards'.

The number of cards for the game is defined by the player and varies from 3 to 100. It is preset on the Paramount Bingo 'Options' dialog box and remains the same from game to game. You can change the number of cards before every game.

When playing with more cards than can be displayed on a single line, navigation arrows appear in the right end of the area. Use these arrows to scroll up and down to see all your cards. Our bingo card has three distinctive features: card number, numbered cells, and border. The card number identifies the bingo card uniquely. The card numbers help you distinguish among the cards in play and track the progress of every individual card.

Card numbers are especially useful when you play multiple cards in which the cards constantly change their positions.

In 75 Ball Bingo each card has five columns of five numbers each. The columns are headed by the letters from the word BINGO. Every column may contain only numbers from a limited set.

The 'B' column, from 1 to 15;
the 'I' column, from 16 to 30;
the 'N' column, from 31 to 45;
the 'G' column, from 46 to 60;
and the 'O' column, from 61 to 75.

The center most cell of the card is labeled 'Free'; that is, it is given to you and can be used to claim bingo.

The border of the card is an indicator of how close you are to claiming bingo for that card. The color of the border displays the number of balls remaining to bingo. The possible colors are four:

  • Purple. You can win bingo in three balls'
  • Green. You can win bingo in two balls.
  • Yellow. You are very close, just one more ball.
  • Red. You have bingo.

The border becomes red when you have bingo and all you have to do is click the 'Bingo' button. Remember, you must press the 'Bingo' button to claim your prize. Clicking this button without a valid bingo can invalidate your play.
