General Rules
• The general rules apply which can be found here.

BINGO Rules
• Every team receives a unique BINGO card, which will be put up in the team thread.
• The goal is to read any five rows, columns, or diagonal blocks to cancel out the five letters in the word BINGO.
• A total of 25 books are supposed to be ready to complete the challenge, but each team receives two 'get-away' keys by reading a book from the 'get-away' pool (which will be posted shortly).
• This 'get-away key' can be used to directly complete any row, column, or diagonal without having to read all the five books in the row/column/diagonal.
• Teams that are willing to read 25 books can opt to not use their get-away keys.
• Each block has a theme or genre to be followed. The theme can either match the plot of the book, or match the book cover.

Points System:
100-150 pages - 25 points
151-200 pages - 50 points
201-300 pages - 75 points
301-400 pages - 100 points
401-500 pages - 150 points
501-600 pages - 175 points
601-700 pages - 200 points
701-800 pages - 250 points
801-900 pages - 300 points
900+ pages - 350 points

Every row/column/diagonal completed: +50 points in addition to above points
At the completion of the whole BINGO challenge: +100 points to total
