Featured CMs - International

Q1: Tell us a little bit about you.

I was born and raised in a small town in PA. I spent a few years travelling as a military wife and then returned back to the same small town to raise our family. I have three children, three grandchildren, and two grand dogs. I love to play online games, especially bingo and pinochle, travelling, swimming, watching old tv shows on the TVLAND channel but most of all I love spending time with my family.

Q2: How long have you been a Chat Host?

Just about 5 months now

Q3: How did you become a Chat Host?

It was something I wanted so bad that I just had to have the patience until something finally turned up for me. The best part is, this was my first choice of anywhere I could be!

Q4: What do you like most about the job?

I love everything about it. I have never had a job that I could say I loved going to until now. From management, to the roomies to the CH team, everyone is just terrific. We have the best roomies and staff to be found anywhere!

Q5: What is the worst part of the job?

The worst thing, I must confess issssssss, I spend entirely too much time in my jammies! But WoW, can’t beat going to work in your jammies ;)!

Q6: Which are your favorite chat room games?

I would have to say my favorite is our bball game with our 4pk pattern. It is so fast and so much fun. My other favorite would have to be my “Gabby Lost Her Marbles” of course and I love the Match Games we play.

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

What is the funniest thing that has ever happened whilst you have been in a chat room? I have to be careful how I word this or I’ll sound like I was being a meanie, but I wasn’t at all. The player I did this to I knew had the sense of humor to take it as a joke. We play a game called Be A Pal. The winner can keep all the bbs or share with their pals. Of course most share, as we have the best roomies around! So it seems every game when they win, the CH has to say Keep or Share? The player usually says share. Then of course the CH has to say with who? Lol Well one day I played this game and got the Share answer and I said OK, so I’m supposed to be The Amazing Kreskin now and know with who? Welllllllllll, the whole room broke out in a roar and I’m sure they had to go through a whole pack of depends! lol

Q8: What makes a good Chat Host?

You really have to care about the people that are playing in your room. You have got to be willing to help with anything they need and to listen when they need to talk. Keeping the chat moving and the games fresh is very important also. I like to change some of the games around a little from time to time so they don’t become stale.

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

I’d like to see it continue to grow so that everyone out there that likes to play can find a place they can call home.

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

I would like to thank Lynn for having the faith in me to give me my shot and CM Summer for encouraging me and helping me develop the self-confidence needed to handle where I am. I love you guys!

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