Personally, I wouldn't really have called bingo "gambling" as such? Yes,
you pay a fee & there is a chance of winning a prize, but gambling seems a
little strong?

Didn't realise till reading this now that adult_gaming = gambling!

I had previously used the tag for https://zerolatencyvr.com/

gambling of any sort takes place?

Thanks
