A method for conducting bingo games includes using a server () to collect game play requests () from a plurality of electronic player stations (). The server () determines if a group of the collected game play requests meets one or more predefined conditions for establishing a quorum (), and if so conducts a game with the group of game play requests (). Even after the game is started, the server continues to collect game play requests in preparation for conducting additional games (). When enough game play requests are collected (), the server starts the next game, even if previous games are still in progress (). Each game play request is associated with a bingo card representation and each such card representation is associated with a respective pay table. Prizes or outcomes of the game are assigned for each bingo card representation according to the respective pay table with which the card representation is associated.
