Yesterday afternoon, which bear in mind was April Fool’s day, I was happily checking my emails when I noticed that I had an email from Wink Bingo, so as I always do I opened the email to see what they were offering us know as their emails normally contain some sort of exciting bingo promotion or another.
The email started off by saying “Lucky You” and then went on for a little bit telling me that if lady luck was not on my side this week whilst I was playing at their bingo site I would get 10% of my loses back, so I thought to myself, cool this sounds good.
The next part of the email then said that they had “Some Exciting News” and then went on to say the following, which is exactly as Wink Bingo told it, have a read:
“Wink Bingo is proud to introduce a new web based technology developed by M powered Systems. Players on Wink Bingo can now view other roomies in the game without the need of web cams. The technology as explained by Steven Chard, from Wink Bingo is active X-enabled and built into the game client residing in the bingo cards themselves.
Players must now be careful playing in their pyjamas, continues Chard. We are proud to be the 1st to launch this revolutionary technology and believe it will only enhance the strong community features our members already enjoy. The CCTV bingo cards are currently not supported on Apple Macs. For more details and free demos please visit www.winkbingo.com”.
So I sat there thinking to myself, is this for real? Was this a good thing or a bad thing, I mean I wouldn’t particularly want other players to be able to see me sitting at my pc in my PJ’s, would you? Would I be able to turn the web cam thingy off or not? I was thinking about all sorts of things, until after about 5 minutes and yes I did say 5 minutes, lol it finally dawned on me that this must be some kind of Joke and sure enough as I scrolled further down the email this is what Wink Bingo Said:
Oh by the way...
Happy April Fools'!
Well to say I felt pretty stupid for falling for it was an understatement, lol, but then if you can’t laugh at yourself, then who can you laugh at, lol!
Naughty Wink Bingo, lol, but was good to see an online bingo site with a sense of humour too! Play at Wink Bingo here
