Introducing...BOMBCAST BINGO

What about Brad emails?

What about enjoyably painful Gamespot memories? Do I get to check both boxes, or do I have to throw out the card and finish my drink?

I really do enjoy the way you phrased some of these quite a lot.

@thephantomnaut: That's a guarantee in each episode, and I was trying to stick to stuff that doesn't always happen. Maybe I could have used a spot for when "Brad" shows up to say e-mails in his amazing cockney accent.

@kickahaota: You can have both boxes. I won't tell anyone.

Good choices.

I like this. Nice work.

@bigdaddytool: If you're trying to stick with stuff that doesn't always happen you should remove DOTA 2 now.
Brad is in too deep to not have that be mentioned all the time.

"Hot Garbage"

ha ha nice.

Shots fired

Brad is tired

Lang zone

@bigdaddytool: May I humbly submit "Brad sluggish due to sickness/allergies/medication/having a big lunch"?

@zeforgotten: I know it's mentioned a lot now, but I have a feeling it'll become one of those unspoken things soon enough (like Starcraft II). If nothing else I imagine Brad will have to stop playing so much once he starts getting games to review again.

Lang Zone almost went in, but I feel like that's more of a thing with the video content rather than the Bombcast. Your other two suggestions are pretty good as well.

Other potential boxes:

• Brad talks science.
• Spiders.
• the bombcrew makes fun of/is snarky towards the gaming public
• awful/fantastic use of punmanship

I hope you're right.
So for now, nobody can win with a full plate!

We're gonna have to pay $5 for that DLC later, I assume :P

'ostensibly'

Right now we're just focused on the full game, but we do intend to share our DLC plans with you in the near future.

The "Vinny learns a skill" box had me laughing for a good two minutes straight.

This is pretty good! Nice work.

What about Jeff's whacky roommate stories.

That should be the free square.

Old-school Hip Hop references should be an instant-win, as they are GOLD.

This. People need to start making a record in podcasts/quicklooks of Time To Ostensibly.

Oh shit, this is great! I might actually have to print this out and use it.

Any Bombcast conversation about hip-hop has basically been my favorite part of said Bombcast.

Someone didn't play games last weekend.

Any mention of the word '3D'

Game press name drop.

50% or more of emails relating to video games.

"The console version looks like shit!"

Someone makes a fart noise.

Discussion of serious issues in gaming.

Brad dispenses knowledge.

Fact checking groans.

Jeff talks about old media.

Patrick wrongly uses the word ostensibly.

Ryan talks about how much he hates a certain fastfood.

Microtransactions done the right/wrong way.

Impersonation of whiny fans of a certain series.

Bee-tah / Bay-tah.

Brad is called out when checking something out / looking up something on his phone.

Discussion about spoilers (ie. Is this a spoiler? can we get away with spoiling this at this point in time?)

Patrick says "the narrative".

"since I've played Monster Hunter.."

"Animation Priority.."

Using "sure" as an acknowledgement of anything.

I'm now biting my lip and realizing I don't really want to listen to the bombcast right now.

You should put any mention of the Wii U as a tile

That's a free square if I've ever heard one.

(Is it weird that I've started looking forward to "ostensibly" now? It used to bug me, but now I appreciate it in the same way as the other guys' verbal quirks)

Same. I never really thought about it but he brings some random new thing to the 'cast pretty frequently.

Any time someone mentions kickstarter.

Someone utters the phrase "to some extent."

Every time Patrick panders to a demographic that he is clearly not part of.

Any time Brad can't make a decision.

If this was a drinking game we'd all be dead.

Patrick's new favorite word is "conflate"...."conflate"

Read this comment while listening to this week's episode, and Patrick said it not even a minute later.

It's not really a game if everyone is using the exact same Bingo card. :P

@hailinel: Give me a sec. I'm working on fixing that.

Here is a Javascript page to auto-create a Bingo card with randomized squares, including a number of suggestions from this very thread.

If there are any problems or you have any more square suggestions, post them here.

Credit to I Wanna Be The Floe for the source code and huge credit to BigDaddyTool for starting this idea.

The 2nd line seems OP.

Brad pronounces the "h" in while.

Should have a drinking game where you drink everytime they talk about video games

@pistolpackinpoet said:

I thought the point of drinking games was to, you know, drink?

Brad wants to hate something because of the Internet / vocal fans.

Vinny moves into another house.

Portillo's is mentioned.

Noticed that a bunch on this week's Bombcast.
