Let's make you a bingo card!
Input a comma-separated list of at least 24 values.
If one of your values needs a comma, use the HTML code , in place of the comma within the value.
Here's a default card to show you what it'll look like. (Scroll down for the HTML.)
| 21 | 16 | 44 | 62 | 26 |
| 3 | 58 | 71 | 52 | 66 |
| 36 | 46 | FREE SPACE | 30 | 18 |
| 59 | 4 | 51 | 22 | 61 |
| 60 | 5 | 47 | 43 | 1 |
And here is the code:
Got lists? Additions? Bugs?
If you have some good general-use lists that you want to see added, leave me a note (or the full comma-separated list) at my DreamWidth post! (Note that, at the moment, there's a bug where any commas ??? even the HTML-entity escaped ones (and even ones which escape the ampersand on that entity!) are loading as commas, so commas within values of pre-made lists don't work. I've been replacing them with slashes, dashes, and ellipses until I can get the bugs worked out.)
I may not take all lists, but I'll do my best to add ones that it seems like many people will find a use for.
If you have suggestions for additions to existing lists, or there are features you'd like to see, feel free to comment on that post as well! Again, I can't guarantee that all suggestions will be implemented, but I'll do my best to make this a usable resource.
Bug reports, unsurprisingly, should also go there.
Known bugs:
- Commas inside values of pre-made lists always appear as delimiters when loaded, no matter how well-escaped they are.
- Custom text colors do not apply to linked text, such as the TV Tropes squares.
