Thanks & Regards, Prashant S Akerkar https://ourpastimes.com/play-housie-5114139.html Thanks & Regards, Prashant S Akerkar Examples : 1 Even, Odd, Perfect Square, Prime numbers etc to complete the Housie. 2 Any other Geometrical shape than Rectangle can be evaluated for constructing Housie tickets?

Same idea, numbers are called between 1 and 75 (I think), and you win by either getting the full card, corners, a line or diagonal line, or a square around the numbers. In more technical BINGO variations, they look for the following patterns once you yell BINGO:

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_types_of_numbers Housie will be completed depending upon the Number types. Example : 1,4,9,16,25,36,49,64,81,100,121,144,169,196,225,256 etc are perfect squares. Those who completes Top row, Middle row, Bottom row & Full Housie who gets only Perfect Squares numbers are the winners. Thanks & Regards, Prashant S Akerkar Thanks. Can this be a variation? The Housie ticket is a 3 * 9 matrix. Three rows & Nine columns. Can Housie tickets be constructed 4 * 10, 3 * 7, 5 * 9 etc dimensions ? Thanks & Regards, Prashant S Akerkar Title: Re: Housie game. Post by: bio_man on Jul 3, 2019 Can Housie tickets be constructed 4 * 10, 3 * 7, 5 * 9 etc dimensions ? Absolutely, there's nothing stopping the makers of this game from diversifying by changing the dimension. Although I must ask, how will people of Indian perceive the change? Are they happy with the way it currently is? Title: Re: Housie game.

Post by: bio_man on Jul 6, 2019 Yes, would be more costly. What's the benefit?
Title: Re: Housie game. Post by: prashantakerkar on Jul 6, 2019 Thanks. Design. Look & Feel. Any other Geometrical shape for the Housie ticket or Bingo card other than Rectangle shape? https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Geometric_shape Ex : Square, Hexagon, Pyramid etc. Thanks & Regards, Prashant S Akerkar Title: Re: Housie game. Post by: bio_man on Jul 6, 2019 Almost all gaming cards sold in the North America are rectangular, for example:

Also, form always needs to fit function. A circular, triangular, or >4 sided card wouldn't accomplish that. |
