Oh, that is kind of a fun-looking card.

And that's not a version of fannish bingo I've seen before, I don't think. I may be tempted...

It's very laid back! It has no deadlines as such, and the prompts are all gen, but you can create shippy or gen things from them as you please. And they have this opt in or opt-out system that is very handy for getting a card. I'd eyed it up for a while, but I'd kind of assumed there were clashing deadlines with other things. :-)

(not that I'm tempting you or anything)

(not AT ALL. one little bit.)

I've just been and looked at the prompts and it is a fun list! I really, really don't need to be thinking about writing anything else until I've finished my Yuletide story -- which is in not in very good shape, and which I have increasingly little time to work on (gulp!) -- but if it's got no deadline, it might be something I can amuse myself with when that's all over.

Yes, I am (happily) done with my assignment, but I want to write two treats I eyed up when the letters went out, plus there's fandom_stocking - but this one will still be valid when that's all over. And I think the min requirements are pretty small, so filling a square might even count as warming up activities!

*pets you for approach of Yuletide bears* Good luck!

That is an amazing bingo card! Space! Cowboys! Prehistoric beasties! I don't generally like AUs, but I think I could probably make an exception for those. :) I wish you much fun with it.

My total knowledge of cowboys is taken from The Gunfighters, Carry on Cowboy & Gunmen of the Apocalypse from Red Dwarf, so it will be, ah, interesting if I take it! ;-)

I'm not sure what I'll do with the dinosaurs, but it's definitely a fun square.

My Western-loving brain wishes to begin deluging you with recs, but I think you'd probably find the almost complete lack of women a bit of an irritation! Actually, I have an idea that you'd love Victoria Cannon from "The High Chaparral". She's magnificent, but also sadly prone to the curse of the variable writing team. Sometimes awesome, all too often left in the background with nothing to do. Oh, ye olde TV, how you do at times frustrate! And it's not out on DVD, so I can't introduce you to her anyway. Bother.

Heh, yeah, I don't think it's my genre! If there are any where the women get to do as much fun stuff as in Carry on Cowboy, that might be okay, but otherwise yeah. Not so much! Just like you'll never watch any of my historical dramas, no matter how much I tell you they actually have prison breaks and duels and plane crashes and things! ;-)

Aw man, I am so easily tempted by bingos. Noooo, I don't need a bingo card in my life right now! (But who doesn't want a bingo where "Northern/Southern Lights" is a possible square?)

It has no deadlines, so you can just snaffle it now and play with it later? :-)
