Bingo
What is Bingo?
Bingo is a plugin inspired by lorgon111. This plugin allows you to simulate the game of Bingo in Minecraft! Bingo items may be customized and will be randomly picked from your list of items. Once you pick up an item that is on your Bingo Board, that item is cleared and you can move on to other items that you have not been cleared. If you can get 5 in a row either in a row, column, or diagonal, you win! This plugin is suppose to be used as a speed-run type of Fun Plugin, please enjoy your time and don't gamble!
What is the status currently?
Because that I am still in school, I do not plan to devote 100% of my time to this plugin, as I do have other personal plugins that I have to maintain. The plugin is in the Release/Beta stage, so nothing is set in stone yet. If you would like to suggest changes, please feel free to leave them in the comments below and I will get to them soon.
I am teamed up with another coder to provide this plugin through Plugin Request Website, if you have an idea, I encourage you to send it our way!
Installation
It should be pretty simple, download, drag, and drop into the plugins folder of your bukkit server. If something goes wrong, your console should show you a stacktrace (a long scary [SEVERE] error) or just a friendly reminder. I have not implemented all the error handling yet, so brace yourselves for some errors.
Basic Functions
This plugin is meant to a fun plugin, and serve as an event on a busy server.
When an administrator starts the game, all players are notified so they can choose if they want to join the game and gamble their wealth for victory! It's advised player do not have anything to start out with, so everyone have a fair chance.
This plugin supports color, just use your basic color symbol (&) and the code followed by it!
Permissions
bingo.admin - Permission node for server administrator to do /bingo start
Commands
/bingo - Help menu
/bingo join - Join a Bingo Game
/bingo leave - Leave a Bingo Game
/bingo start - Start a Bingo Game
Configuration
A sample Configuration can be found HERE
English Tutorial
Portuguese Tutorial
Unusable/Reserved IDs
In my plugin, it checks for illegal Item IDs and tell you in the configuration that they are un-obtainable without creative mode or cheats. Please stay away from those IDs. In addition, Nether Star and Paper are not allowed because Nether Star serves as the item for completion and Paper serves as the item for Bingo Card. Sorry for this inconvenience.
To-Do List
1. Same items, but randomized item order on each player's card (Configurable)
2. Improvements and Efficiency
3. Hardcore mode (Get all items on the board)
4. Your opinions?!

Can you add signs so its like [Bingo] [World] [Join]
I started using this plug in in 1.8 Tons of fun and love it. Not sure if anyone else is still using this or trying it out. But only issue I am having is I have to do a server restart in order to allow players to play a new game after one has finished. Not the END of the world but did not know if anyone had figured out a fix this issue.
Or maybe the Author might wish to re tackle this one?
Either way a lot of fun.
Good!
an config for de translation on your todo???
@PluginRequest
No worries man. Thanks a lot for looking into it. If you can't figure out what the issue is then pm me. Maybe I can help. Don't give up on it if you get frustrated. I love your plugin. Thanks a bunch for taking the time to make it.
@LindseyMH
Sorry for the late reply, I will look into what I did wrong and fix it within the next couple of days.
@mobilephone2003
Thank you for the confirmation, I will look into it.
@samulehk2003
Yeah, I had some doubts with the upgrading, I will sort it out. Sorry for the inconvenience :( If the older version makes you happier, I recommend the older versions due to the current problem.
Yup, config resets itself when the game finishes.
@ samulehk2003 I also had this same problem when i first ran it in game. I went back to the config file and it had rewritten itself. This plugin does work fine EXCEPT that every time the server restarts or you finish a game the config rewrites itself. So I have to remove the old copy and replace it with a backup version each time.
@ pluginrequest I did notice the version number was wrong in the config. Maybe this is the issue? I did edit the number to match but, it still rewrote itself. Either way is there something we can do to make sure the config does not rewrite itself? P.S. I really like your plugin. Thank you for writing it. It is fun and turns into a type of treasure hunt for us. We enjoy it.
My server already test v1.1, there will be some error if type /bingo start and players type /bingo join. Hope you can fix it in few days. Recommend can add /bingo restart + /bingo reload + /bingo stop, it will be easier to control and no need to restart server.
Looking forward to use your new Version.
@PluginRequest
One little bug that I found, do not use "/bingo start" again when a game is already on-going. This will be fixed in the next update.

@OutCraft
An error log will be helpful :)
nullpointerexceptions? Fix them.
Awesome plugin! Is there any way to give a "reward" automaticly for the player that finishes the Bingo?
