Featured CMs - International

Q1: Tell us a little bit about you.

Hi everyone I am from the state of Pennsylvania born and raised here. I am married and have 1 son and 4 grandchildren who are my heart. I live on the family farm that my parents have owned for over 55 yrs. I have 2 dogs, still have the farm in my heart, but cannot farm anymore.

Q2: How long have you been a Chat Host?

I have been a CM at Playtime Bingo & RV Bingo 3 years this July.

Q3: How did you become a Chat Host?

I was a player there and had my driving job downsized due to the company moving. One night I asked the CM working if they were looking for a CM. I sent my resume in and interviewed the next day. CM Vicki knew how chatty I was in chat and loved to have lots of fun in there so she hired me and I started that night. I was scared to death but the roomies made me feel right at home. The rest is history.

Q4: What do you like most about the job?

I love meeting all the players and greeting and meeting new and returning players. I love to find out about them as they are from all over the world. We have shared in the joys and sorrows of each other and I love going to the chat every day to see what is new with them. They even adopted my grandson Braden as their own Bingo boy. We are all like one big family. They are the BEST.

Q5: What is the worst part of the job?

Not being able to play at Playtime Bingo & RV Bingo anymore. I so miss it but I love cheering for the players when they win and I am as excited as they are when we have a jackpot winner. I would love to be able to play for the Colossal $10,000 Jackpot game and the Guaranteed Jackpot games we have, but I do love cheering on the players for these games.

Q6: Which are your favorite chat room games?

I love the chat games that the players are involved in like Bingo Feud, Run Ticker Run , Poke Jack’s Eyes Out and the many others. We are always coming up with fun chat games that the roomies can win lots of bonus bucks on.

Q7: What is the funniest thing that has ever happened whilst you have been in a chat room?

I am known for my many typos in chat and the roomies pick up on them all. I once typed a player’s name so very wrong and the roomies wouldn’t let me forget it! They still mention it and it has been over a year! We still get a good laugh over that.

Q8: What makes a good Chat Host?

A good chat host greets every player entering the chat room and pays attention to what they are chatting about. The CM gets involved in the chat, answers all questions that are asked and helps players with any problems they may be having. A good chat host will listen, whether it be something that has happened to a player’s family or if a player just needs someone to chat with. We are all like one big family in the chat room and we all care about each other. Players are what makes the CM and without them there would be no Chat hosts.

Q9: How would you like to see online bingo (as a whole) develop?

I would love to see the funding come back the way it used to be so more players could fund and have a blast in the chat games with us. We do have Free Hall at certain times so those who cannot fund can play and win Bonus Bucks that they then can use any way they want to. The random Free games in the Main hall gives many the opportunity to win and to play also.

Q10: Any other comments that you'd like to add about being a Chat Host?

I want to thank the players who vote for our site every month and the continued support they give to the CM Team at Playtime Bingo & RV Bingo. I would also like to thank CM Vicki for giving me the opportunity to become a CM and all the support and help she gives to all of us. A big thank you goes to Rumi and Andrey for all the great games they give the players and to the staff for the great job they do too! And to our Cm Team, we are the BEST! Thank you!

All the team here at CMOTY would like to say a big 'TY' to Cede.
