Can someone help me with a bingo card problem? To anyone who has Houston's bingo card and you are missing games, can you do the following and then tell me what happens?

Can you totally uninstall Houston's bingo cards
redownload it at http://www.houstonsprograms.uk/programs ... bingo.html
and then reinstall? Then check to see if you have GIN and Blackout??

It is very important that you uninstall or delete all of the card's files. You might have to reinstall other games of his if they share a resource.

When I do this, I get all the games listed on the Big Bingo Card. I am not sure why others are not getting all of the games listed. Some of the missing games are GIN and Blackout. I would love to hear if anyone is able to fix their card with this method. Otherwise, I will have to quit hosting bingo until LowRider's card is available because it is too hard to pick a game everyone has.

Thank you!

Sly, please do not give up. Sorry for the delay on the Bingo Card. I am very close to having it finished. I have been busy doing other projects plus real world stuff too such as dental appointments etc. I will get back to working on the Bingo Card this weekend. :)

Aww Low, I am not trying to rush you! I know you are busy with RL. I am very much looking forward to the card though!

Last weeks game was a mess because several people didn't have games I was picking. Then I would pick another and several other people would not have THAT game. It was a mess. It was frustrating.

I can't figure out why some people who downloaded Houston's bingo cards have all the games and others do not. It's making me batty! :mrgreen:

Take your time and thank you for all you do!

I uninstalled and re-downloaded Houston's and it now has all the games again.. Another thing is with Houston's they can ADD whatever game they are missing themselves in his card! If have it under *USER* they can fill in whatever spots they need for BO or GIN or anything then right click it and add to the game list. This is why I wasn't understanding why everyone had such problems when you (and previously me) was choosing the games that were to be played.. It is very frustrating and yes I also know from experience that Houston's card did have some games disappear from my list on my card that were there before. But it really isn't that difficult to *fix* the problem themselves by doing either one of those two options :)

Thanks for letting me know. I will see how tomorrow goes. I don't know why no one was willing to set up the game using the *user* option and I always thought Blackout was the most used game, so it should be on all cards. I will ask people to uninstall and reinstall Houston's card if it is still an issue.

I just want people to have a good time and it has been a mess!
