October Hits: Cooperative County Challenge

This will be far different that last time, as there will be no prizes, no winners, no losers, no entry fee, all may participate.

Simply, we will collectively try to fill in as much of the map as we can...just post up your county hits.

In order to eliminate any form of competition whatsoever, there will be no standings page, you can keep track of your own if you want to. The map will be colored in as counties are hit...a different color for whatever month the county was hit in - the color will not indicate WHO got the hit.

This way there is just cooperation, no competition....nothing to create possible bad feelings.

My original intent with this, last year...was simply to bring more people to the forums more frequently and try to build a little community. The competition aspects made this effort backfire, and I regret that.

Hopefully, this way, there will be no bad feelings, cooperation over competition...and we can try to build something together.

All who wish to participate may do so...those who do not wish to participate....that is your choice, you are welcome to participate. Please post links to the hits.

As before, we will have a map and a spreadsheet, so that one may see which counties have already been hit....but nothing on the map or spreadsheet will indicate WHO got the hit...thus competition is totally eliminated...and, along with it....any reason for bad feelings.

Please specify any hits for September or previous months, thanks.

Spreadsheet Link...................Link to Full Size Map
Spreadsheet current thru Kootenai County, Idaho thru September Thread.
Map is colored in up thru Kootenai, ID (9/30). Next Map update will be around 10/15/12.
Currently, we still need a hit in Vermont, and all territories/military areas except PR, DC and AE.
We have achieved over 24% county coverage so far!! We are two counties away from a full West Coast Bingo.

Opps - Tony beat you to this just above.

I didn't see that when I posted it.

Oh, well, no standings so it doesn't really matter. The point is, we got it.

Huron County, Michigan

I love the town name.

West Baton Rouge parish, LAhttp://www.trackdollar.com/report.htm?url=BH72E2413FD4C8B52C1D66E01C43534A0525FFE219

James City County, VA or the County of James City, if you prefer or get confused

Lee County, VA
(about as far from Fairfax as you can get and stay in VA)

Not confusing to me. I knew about this County.

AA - Illinois

Since St. Clair County is taken...and this bill VERY SPECIFICALLY was hit at an Air Force Base...I'd say an AA hit is warranted here.
