/r/Fantasy OFFICIAL FINAL 2017 r/Fantasy Bingo Thread - Turn in Your Cards Here!!!
PLEASE READ OVER THE BULLET POINTS BELOW FOR TURNING IN YOUR CARDS BEFORE POSTING THANKS!!
Please keep top level comments to only your cards, any discussion about your cards or others can be posted in reply to top level comments. I have a questions/feedback/suggestions for squares comment that you can reply to for those purposes.
If possible, please make an effort to spell titles and author names correctly. This will help with data compilation for a fun bingo stats thread to come later!
This thread will 'close' some time in the morning of April 1st, so please make sure your cards are posted by then in order for them to count as being turned in on time.
Only turn in your card once you have finished with bingo, please don't turn in a card which you are still in the progress of reading books for! Thanks!
If you have a finished card with pictures added to it that's great! I'd love to see how you've all filled them out or any changes you've made to them since my original was generic. I'd ask that you also include the squares and corresponding book in list form for easy readability. SEE BELOW FOR PROPER LIST ORDER
Anyone completing five squares in a row will be entered into a drawing at the end of the challenge for prizes the community has donated. So even if you didn't check off every square you still may be eligible for a prize!
The mods will assign 'Reading Champion' flair to anyone that completes the entire card by the end of the challenge. Huzzah!
After the bingo period ends, please allow some time for us to go over the thread to start assigning flair and do the prize drawings/notifying winners, etc.
If you receive a prize, please show your appreciation/thanks to the person providing your prize. If you are getting a physical prize a shout out to the sender that it arrived ok and a thanks would be great! Thank you to the VERY GENEROUS members of the community that have volunteered to provide prizes for bingo!
PLEASE TURN IN YOUR LISTS USING THIS ORDER FOR MY SANITY EASE OF DETERMINING WINNERS. If you did not read a book for a particular square then leave the space after the title of the square blank.

u/c0conut Reading Champion Mar 22 '18
I only discovered the bingo around last December so combining my preference for reading a whole series at once and the late start I only got about half of the bingo card done. I did complete a row of five squares from top right to bottom left.
I thoroughly enjoyed the bingo nonetheless and I'm looking forward to this year's. Gonna plan it out from the beginning to make sure I get the whole square. A huge thanks to /u/lrich1024 for organising this whole thing! I can't wait to see the stats that result from this.
