LUMOS

For this month's posting challenge, we have a fun and challenging game of Bingo! The stakes are quite high! The first person who gets Lumos -- because it's more fun to get Lumos than Bingo, right? gets TEN SICKLES in their vault! The second place winner gets FIVE SICKLES, and the third place winner gets THREE SICKLES! Fourth place will get TWO SICKLES, and fifth place will get ONE SICKLE. If you black out the whole board like a mega-overachiever, you get ONE GALLEON! As you all know, you can turn in money for some great prizes around the site, and ten sickles is a heck of a lot, so hopefully that is enough to get your competitiveness going?

Anyone who completes a row after the first five winners will get TEN KNUTS and anyone who completes their second, third, or fourth row will also get TEN KNUTS!

Here's how you play! It's really quite simple. Just sign up below, and I will randomize a customized Lumos board for you! There are 25 spots, with one free space. The 24 prompts are the same on every board, but they're all in different spots because that, my friends, is how Bingo works. Right? Man, I haven't played Bingo in a long time, so who knows? The point is, you need your own customized board to play!

Things you might need to know: you can't combine prompts! So while it could be very creative to figure out how to compare different prompts into one thread, it has to be different! Same with the bonus squares. It means taking one prompt and turning it into three threads, in whatever way you can but you cannot claim other prompts in your bonus square!

So all you have to do is post below with the following code, and I will edit in your customized Lumos board! Then you can let the games begin! You have all month to get Lumos!

Get playing!

Gimme my board!

Once you have your board, you can start playing. It's up to you how you want to keep me updated on your board! You can either post here anytime you fill in any square with links to proof, and I will update your board and cross it off for you. Or you can wait until you have Lumos, and post all five squares with link to proof! Totally up to your preference. I think the first is more fun, because it will be interesting to see everybody's boards getting updated, but it is totally up to you!

Gimme my board!

Post in a board that has something about legends or myths or haunting ghosts in the description - @marlena posted in The Guardian's Lake! insurrectionhprp.proboards.com/thread/11878/indestructible-cass

Bonus square if you turn any of the writing prompts into a series of three threads or more - @marlena hung out with a friend at The Guardian's Lake (legend/myths prompt) to try to get her mind off things, then decided to try something new and hung out at the Scottish National Pitch alone (wondering why her hanging out with friends in cool places plan didn't work like usual), and finally feeling really lost on this whole Feeling Down sitch decided to stop by the Museum of Quidditch to just try and face her problems head on (idk if this is a long shot, let me know!!!)

Post with your character carving jack o lanterns - @liampotter carved some pumpkins with Addie! insurrectionhprp.proboards.com/thread/11888/walk-on-water-addie

Post with your character at a pumpkin patch - @camilla passed through one today! insurrectionhprp.proboards.com/thread/11954/hall-fame-brother

Bonus square if you turn any of the writing prompts into a series of three threads or more - Did it with @camilla and the pumpkin patch prompt! She strolled through one with Kings, then talked about it while catching up with her sisters, and it was on her mind a fair bit while she was at home with Avery. Can I get it in the top right corner to get LUMOS again?
