Hello, everyone! I run the social media for Inductive and one of the funny ideas we had for a potential social media post was an Ignition Bingo Card. We have a few ideas of what we could put on the card like “Contributed to the Ignition Exchange” or “Achieved 100% in Inductive University”, but I was hoping to get some really unique or funny ideas from all of you. All suggestions welcome!

Serious ones:

- Solved a Problem on the Forums
- Achieved Core/Gold Certs
- Attended ICC
- Used MQTT Modules

Fun ones:

- Posted code/errors without using preformatted text
- Used tag mapping with the Modbus driver and told it was wrong
- Tried using the forums as official support

Edit: Couple more fun ones:

- Own a pair of Ignition socks
- Collected pins at ICC

- Replaced Wonderware/FTView/etc with Ignition
- Set up Redundancy
- Used Ignition Cloud (or Ignition Standard in the Cloud)
- Locked yourself out of a gateway and had to do a password reset
- Bought a limited client license to quickly upgrade to unlimited clients because everyone wants access (and to realize the advice of your integrator to buy unlimited up front was the right call)
- Used the built-in OPC-UA server for external connectivity (or to replace Kepware)
- Built an unconventional project (game, no devices/DB access only, etc) - Bonus if you were paid to build it
