I joined my library's summer reading challenge and there was a bingo sheet on the website and I was just trying to find out directions on how to fill it out and I accidentally said I completed it when I totally didn't read one of each genre in any one row.

Oops.

It does say we have to pick up our ticket to enter the raffle first, so I think as long as I don't do that until I actually can say I did the challenge I won't dwell too much. I hate that it says I have the bingo award on the website now though.


edit: omg there's a Get Outside bingo card with activities like "take nature photos," "read outside," and "watch the sunrise" that I ALMOST got all of them in one row EXCEPT go to an ice cream stand and I don't think that will be the row I complete... fk.

Does it specify what you have to do at the ice cream stand? Would, say, walking three times around the ice cream stand qualify?

It does say "have ice cream at a local stand." I guess it doesn't say "eat ice cream at a local stand," so I guess I could go with someone and just hold their cone or bowl for a second and it'd count.


Or I could take a little bit of actual cream and freeze it in a medicine cup or something and bring it and that would be ice made of cream

I did the same thing once except I filled it all out and got a bunch of prizes and the librarian told me she was impressed by the books I read. I felt kinda bad for cheating.

Here's how I'd rationalize it if I'd done that...
  1. Software quality testing -- I'd document the inputs and the outputs and provide it to the administrator. The prize is my fee for that effort.
  2. The Multiverse has given me so much sheet. The prize offsets about 10% of that.
In essence, you deserve a good surprise once in a while, @MuddyBoots!
