Shuffled WWDC keynote bingo cards

Do the shuffle!

By popular demand, and to assuage my fears that there are no wins on the original card, here are twenty new cards. The squares are the same, but the order has been randomized thanks to a clever AppleScript created by Simone Manganelli. Grayscale and color version exist for each card.

We’ll call the original card number zero (also linked below) and go up from there. The honorable thing to do would be to pick one card and stick with it, rather than downloading them all and then picking the card that looks the most likely to have a win on it. If anyone does download all twenty-one cards, I expect that person to play all of them at once, hardcore Grandma style.

Truthfully, I haven’t even looked at the shuffled cards. They may actually be less likely to have a win than card zero. You pays your money and you takes your chances, as they say. (Only this time, you don’t “pays” anything, I guess.)

Oh, and there’s one more thing…

If the operating system code-named Leopard is officially named something other than Leopard, you may mark any single square that you need to win. Consider it a “bonus square,” or perhaps a “John meant to put that on the card, but forgot, and now it’s too much work to go back and change 42 PDFs” square.
