# Baryon Bingo

A game of subatomic bingo where the winner is the first to get all the quarks to make

their [baryon](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Baryon)!

## Making The Cards

First you need to make your cards. Here are the baryon cards you need to make:

![Baryon cards](baryon_cards.png "Baryon Cards")

and these are the quark cards you need to make (each stack contains about six cards

that are the same as each other):

![Quark cards](quark_cards.png "Quark Cards")

## Rules

A person is appointed the 'caller', and they give a baryon card to each player. Then

the caller jumbles up the quark cards and picks one at random and calls out which it

is, eg. "red strange". If a player needs a Strange quark of that colour then she shouts

out, "Bary!" and puts the quark card on its position. It may be that more than one

person needs that card, in which case the first person to shout, "Bary!" gets it. When

a player has all three quarks their baryon is complete and they shout out,

"Baryon Bingo!" to show they've won. The final rule is that all the quarks on a baryon

card have to be of different colours.

So for example, say we have a player called Florence, and she has this Baryon Card:

![Lambda empty](lambda_empty.png "Lambda empty")

Then if the caller says, "red strange", Florence shouts out "Bary!" and puts the quark

card on its position so it looks like:

![Lambda red strange](lambda_red_strange.png "Lambda Red Strange")

If the caller then says, "red down", then Florence shouldn't shout "Bary!" because then

there would be two reds, and all the quark in a baryon must be of different colours. If

she does shout out "Bary!" and she can't use the quark card, then as a penalty she has

to give back one of her quark cards to the caller. Once Florence has collected all three

quark cards of different colours the card will look like:

![Lambda complete](lambda_complete.png "Lambda Complete")

and Florence shouts out, "Baryon Bingo!" and wins the game!
