b2memOne of the major drawbacks to this year's B2MeM challenge was that it was not accessible to participants who access the Internet with a screen reader. Since we're very much dedicated to keeping B2MeM open to anyone and everyone in the Tolkien fandom who wants to participate, this was a problem that we needed to address. To do so, we've created text-only copies of the BINGO cards, which can be viewed with a screen reader.
Access text-only BINGO cards
Participants who use screen readers can claim their cards from this page or email us with a list of the cards they want. We will also create text-only player pages for any participants who request them; simply email us at moderator@silmarillionwritersguild.org.
I want to credit and thank my comods for making the text-only cards possible. Because I post most of the announcements, I get to be the face of this challenge, but I think the text-only cards highlight that B2MeM is thanks to the efforts of many volunteers and would in no way be possible for one person to do alone. Many, many thanks to Rhapsody, Angelica, Russandol, and Pearl Took for their incredible efforts in getting over 70 cards transcribed, numbered, and formatted in an incredible two days. This task was both boring and herculean but makes it possible for members to participate who would not be able to if only image-based cards were available. Three cheers for our B2MeM volunteers! :)
