The same 5x5 bingo generator as before - now with more death:
All bingo options have now been merged into one sheet, this means that the sheet can be used to select any number of actors and mix and match options between them, there are a variety of other options relating to the host and era of the show, with some options pre-selected for a more streamlined process.
This update introduces a few new bingo squares, many of which relate to death. A general 'murder' square has been added, as well as specific squares for the most (and least) offending actors.
The sheet will generate a 5x5 Bingo square, with squares colour coded based on likelihood. The spreadsheet can tell you which actors appear in each episode, but if you'd rather dive straight in without specifying an episode you are free to do so.
Please Download 'MMNBingoBuilder' and open it in EXCEL
This will not work in google sheets or LibraOffice you can try out other options but im doubtful, I will probably get round to that at some point

Q & A
Q. How do I play?
A. Its bingo, you know how to play bingo, but weve been treating it as a drinking game so do whatever
Q. How do I use the spreadsheet?
A. Follow the instructions in 'using the spreadsheet' in the 'instructions' sheet of the excel book, you may have to press the little arrow in the bottom left hand corner to see it. The basic gist is enter things into white boxes and you cant go too far wrong
Q. Can I play as multiple actors?
A. Sure! Just select which actors you want to play as (this can be all of them) and select whichever squares you like - if you specify an episode the sheet will tell you which actors appear in the episode, but it is not a necessary step
Q. How much do I need to know about mischief to play?
A. Nothing! It certainly helps to be able to recognise your actor/actors but the sheets contain pictures to help you with this and if you play as the host (Emmy/Oscar) you can tell from context anyway, prosaprognosia be damned
Q. How drunk could I get?
A. Look the simple answer is idk, I tried to give an idea with the 'difficulty' and 'fairness' ratings, but honestly theyre largely meaningless and based entirely off my very unreliable 'best guess'. Best I can say is that we got absolutely smashed when we kept a bingo card between games so... maybe dont do that.
Q. I've found a mistake/Where did you get the info
A. The first 3 seasons of episode info were provided by @personinthepalace, in this post, the rest was found just by skipping to the bows in each episode. If you find a mistake with listed cast for an episode you can message me @you-know-your-name or @ [email protected], if you find a mistake with an episode title, I dont really care sorry lol, you can message me anyway but its not really a priority
Q. How do I play without Excel?
A. Get a time machine? Idk I dont have that set up yet sorry, but as far as I know it should work on the free online version of excel just fine, though you might have issues with older builds of excel
Q. I Broke it! What do I do?
A. Usually a little control Z action should rescue things, but if its gone really badly you can redownload the sheet fresh from the link above. If you think you've found a bug you can message me @you-know-your-name or @ [email protected]
Q. I dont like how my bingo squares are organised, can I change them?
A. Yep, Its a little fiddly I'm afraid but you can change them around in 'seed'
Q. Can I still use the old bingo versions?
A. Yep, they're in the legacy folder, but I will not be updating them any further with new bingo squares or episodes
Q. Can I add my own bingo squares?
A. It'll require you to go into the back end a bit but feel free, theres very vague instructions on how to do it in 'Programming info' but you may have to use some ingenuity because I couldnt be arsed to go into to much detail. Please let me know what you added! I'd love to get community suggestions for the bingo squares
Q. How can I suggest a Bingo square?
A. you can message me @you-know-your-name or @ [email protected] , I might run a form at some point to get the submissions all in one place, but no promises
Q. Theres an episode not listed/I want to add an episode
A. The easiest thing to do is just enter the relevant actors and Oscar/Emmy, since entering an episode isn't required, but you could always go digging for secrets, or follow the vague instructions in the hidden sheet 'programminginstructions'
Q. When will X be fixed/updated
A. idk, im very busy but this frequently takes over as lead hyperfocus so it depends, fixes and things will probably happen in batches though
Q. This is somehow still not enough info for me
A. More info can be found under 'Random Info' in the 'instructions' section of each bingobook, have fun nerd
And the ever increasing credits:
Thankyou to:
@vinecovered-mech for providing the original inspiration for mmn bingo
@personinthepalace, for this post, which gave me enough info to start this project in the first place
@cornleykillercanary & @trashpidgeon48 for inspiring and providing useful information for the death update
& @this-usher for inadvertently reminding me to publish this update
I feel like some of the clones of the Mastermind having green eyes and others having blue eyes is a really interesting thing to think about. Since they're all genetic clones of the Mastermind, they should theoretically have the same eye colour, but they don't. Could it be an effect of the genetic tampering, so some of their eye colours got changed? Maybe he just had heterochromia, so some got green and others got blue? Who knows?
Okay, so I didn't wanna say this until I knew it for certain, but Zoe actually has heterochromia! Her right eye is bluer than her left, and now I'm going to be completely normal about this.
gender envy usually gets used as a positive to neutral expression but there sure is an evil form of gender envy if you've been in the depths of dysphoria. i have a friend whos talked about hearing news stories of kim petras in highschool and being so jealous it made her angry. i've struggled talking to online friends who got on HRT faster due to their countries better healthcare because obviously i'm happy for them but like. man. ya know its not healthy but if you've been there? you get it. ohhhh you get it.
I know this is a bit of a long shot, but do you by any chance have any of the links to any Starship Improvise links? Thanks sm xx
Hi! So we used to have several Starship Improvise audios, but sadly almost all of the links are broken now (along with lots of other Mischief at the Ed Fringe 2022 audios). I have reached out to several people to see if anyone still some audios saved somewhere, and in the meantime, I will send you the link to the one audio link that still works haha :)

Yup! I'm certain theres an interview or a mischief makers type thing where Dave mentions it specifically tho I couldn't tell you which
But yes for the briefest of periods - between I think the first fringe show (August 10th 2008) and at least March 2nd 2009 but to June 26th (2009) at the latest - different mischief (scatpack) members wore specific colours
Unfortunately, the pics from let's see what happens are all black and white, but here's an assortment of colour coded mischief from the rest of the 8+ months:
Hen & Harry - Red
Dave - Green
Josh & Charlie - Purple
In my head Jon was also in red, but he seems to be in pure black in everything I have so I must b thinking of the improvised ad break
I'm unclear whether Mike every really followed the uniform policy, but he seemed to be in grey
And for the deeply nerdy, Richard Hutton was Red and Coral Tarran was also in all Black
Someone said "Are you really so stupid to think that Africa has the same technological advances as us? If they did they would probably have clean water and not live in houses made of sticks and mud. Get over yourself and stop being so ignorant."..... Below is a tiny collection of images of the Africa they refuse to show you..
ches
I’m sorry you’ve been made to believe that the whole of Africa is poor, I really am..
To @kushandwizdom this is a rather unfair portrayal of Africa as a whole since half of these are literally just South Africa. So Instead to add to this post and better dispel the myth of Africa as the vast wasteland of poverty most people think, I found a much more mixed collection of pics from various countries.
Luanda, Angola
Agadir, Morocco
Lagos, Nigeria
Cairo, Egypt
Port Louis, Mauritius
Abidjan, Cote d’Ivoire
Algiers, Algeria
Tripoli, Libya
Dar es Salaam, Tanzania
Tunis, Tunisia
So, there, a much better case demonstrating the various major cities around Africa showing it isn’t some technologically backwards continent, but actually pretty up-and-coming in the world of commerce.
I once was talking to my Ethiopian manager about ignorant people asking her dumb shit about her life before she moved to the states…
the worst story she told me about was when she told a fellow student (at a fairly prestigious university) about a concert she went to back home. The other student responded with “omg you have music there!?” 🤦🏾♀️
A redneck neighbor once asked my mom (in the 80s) if they had cars in Peru. Sigh.
This is the product of poor world history in school & little current affairs coverage outside Western Europe, except for catastrophes, so all we see are the war torn, poverty stricken, disaster-affected parts on the news. And racism, of course.
I bet most Americans who think that African countries are just completely poverty stricken have no idea what the US looks like in its poorest areas, not everywhere in the US is nice suburbs or unrealistically large apartments on tv
All of this is true, and also- those stick and mud houses are actually amazing examples of indigenous African knowledge. They are being studied for their thermal properties and sustainability.
Of course traditional African homes look different from homes in the US or Europe- they’ve started from different climates and resources. It’s such racist hubris to assume different means lesser-than.
also also, the racism of saying “oh they build with sticks and mud” like we don’t do the same thing. Stick-built is a fucking category of Victorian house! Stucco is just mud! Plaster is just mud! Adobe is just mud! Clay is just mud! EVERYONE builds with sticks and mud! It’s very telling that people only use words like “sticks” and “mud” when they’re being insulting. Buddy I live in a house made of sticks and mud too.
If you make a post about evil women, they’ll name a man. If you make a post about evil men, they’ll name women. If you make a post appreciating a specific evil woman, they’ll call you evil
