Default Automated Bingo Halls, What Do You Think?

If you caught this story about the first ever completely electronic Bingo hall, The Fountain Park Mecca Bingo club in Edinburgh, I was wondering what your thoughts were.

Does this sound like the dawning of a brand new Bingo age, or would you rather keep your normal Bingo cards and pens?

Personally, I like marking off the tickets, it feels a lot more like you're playing than the online version. However, if you're used to the online version, it could not be that big a deal...

It's taking off more and more isn't it? I was watching the money programme on Bingo a few weeks back and they featured an all electronic hall. It was amazing the difference between the audience there and the standard audience. It was a lot younger and hipper.

This just might be the way to draw in the younger crowd but I know that I enjoy the cards and marking them off by hand. I know that we have them here where they are going to the computers but you can also still play the cards.

Probably will have to be a bit of a mix for awhile.
So many electronic games competing for the same money.

Is that not already evident in the evolution of music, actual instruments are dying and soon all our music will be PC made
