The numbers playing bingos have drastically reduced to the level where it is hard to find a bingo game. Those that do take place have few players. Perhaps bringing back Robot Master of the Month Bingo Comps would get the numbers back up again, for those of us who enjoy bingos? I understand the latest version hasn't been programmed for them yet, so perhaps the plan is to let them die a slow death, so it becomes not worth the bother of programming them for the latest version?

I don't think our plan is to kill it off, it's just quite a bit of work to add it to the HTML5 version, and it hasn't reached the top of the priority list yet.

I agee with Dave. I play this for fun and love races with all the known players over the years we love to challenge each other. I have spent a lot of dollars playing this over the years since it started and feel very sad and let down that you think its not important "not high up on your list "
Others are also sending me messages as they also feel let down. We need higher numbers back as players leave when they are new as only a couple in that normally win and will go to the free one. I am playing far less as numbers are too small.
The comps were fantastic and I am sure profitable for BBO as a lot of players played in them. Also I don't know who's doing the programming but it really had dropped :(

Thank you for your reply, but I'm not sure how re-assured I am by it.
You also never addressed my suggestion of bringing back monthly Robot Master Bingo comps, that would hopefully improve the numbers playing and help to demonstrate a commitment to them?

Hi Dave,

We can't run a competition based on a game that is not supported on the majority of the BBO clients (mobile apps and html version). It would basically force people to go back to flash in order to participate.

There are no plans to completely discontinue bridge bingo, it's just not very simple to convert it to html -- it will be done in the next upgrades.
