Heard and seen around the town

We have two columns on this page: BubbleGum Bingo and Tea Time In IR.

BubbleGum Matches Economy!

Well folks, I went back to view another game of Bubblegum Bingo and much to my surprise, it looked like an old timers gathering. Many old citizens attended this event with a few new ones salted in! ROFL!

Important to note Qwestor was up to his or hers never can get it right, silliness!

At least each game had multiple winners and it is a good thing that during this event we had many generous donations, the largest being 10 million for a single game! So let me and Games thank you generous donors for your gifts to this fast-becoming the number one bingo space in CT!

The first game was worth 5 mil and there were, I think, eleven winners, correct me if wrong Qwestor, but I was so tied up in this game I forgot to keep notes, so I have to rely on this old brain to remember as much as I can ! There were a total of six to seven games played and all the players were holding thier breaths! Not even the Yote had time to chew on his favorite old shoe!

All the games were fast paced with a couple of magic bubbles thrown in! I believe the price of bubblegum went up to keep up with this event!

Donations kept pouring in and Qwestor spent a lot of time thanking them. Well done!! This game folks, in my estimate, is the most rewarding as well as fun filled, that I have covered in a long time!

On the final game of the night, worth 10 mil, there were once again multiple winners but not as many as earlier, so the take was even more satisfying for those winners!

I did not go away empty handed either, I might add. I brought home over a half million to add to my my meager bankroll, which I hide under....well hide.! Nope it did not even come close to putting me on the rich list!

DannyKing showed up towards the end of the last game and poo-pooed the 10 million cc prize saying it was nothing to what he had in his coffers! Now DK admit you almost had a heart attack seeing those figure! CVN knows you are a tease!
Tea Time In IR !

Editor's note: CVN columnist extraordinaire is one of our newest non-title for dusty. We are most appreciative of his many contributions to our news team!-jdb
Okay folks, are ya ready for this one? LOL, I must say it was a smile bringer. LSS was the star of her own Improv at Inner Realms. This was an udderly corn fed and grown event! It was a really fast mooooving event and udderly funny!

While there was no cash flow to our coffers, the results were nevertheless a great event! What can I say. Ya have to have been raised on the farm to enjoy this one! And if not, then you were put out to pasture! LSS and dixi were the hosts or farmhands, as I should say, with Playingby pitching in a fork or two of hay. Hmmm hay!

Well the quizes were great and some of the people guessing some of the corny puns, included Hawke12 and BRob! WTG you two. My strange remarks did nothing to restrain LSS from going on, because she was on a mission! All in all I would say it was a great and fun event, sure to bring tears of laughter to somber faces not to mention end the drought in the meadowlands! My rating? Cause they really milked this out and dare I say it?: creamed the competition! On just raw talent and the laughter scale, not to mention on the a fast paced fun event schedule. I give it a 5 star rating. Count 'em! WTG to go IR team and contestants.
