My sister’s volleyball team has this thing where there is a 3x3 grid, and every time they complete a task (win a set, get an ace (which is when the other team doesn’t touch your serve), etc.) She calls this the team’s tic tac toe board. I call it a mini bingo board. Chess.com’s community is well known for being near all knowing, so I ask: who is right?

Oops. To finish the first sentence, every time they complete a task they x out a square

Because you have to get 3 in a row, there’s no free space, and bingo games don’t have 3x3 boards. They’re perfectly describing a tic tac toe board.

But you x out a square when you complete a task. They may be using a tic tac toe sized board, but they are playing volleyball bingo (and that’s what I meant)
It's definitely tic tac toe. Why would it be bingo? Bingo boards are much bigger, right?

if the squares are for certain things then it is bingo. if you can pick any square it is tic tac toe.
Either one, i like them both
Man I should really read,😞
#11 also, there's no alternating X's and O's. So, bingo. 3x3 bingo exists, and is a lot more popular than 5x5 tic tac toe. Usually though, 3x3 bingo entails 2 straight lines for at least 5 squares.

It’s tic tac toe if they get to choose which square they x out and bingo if it’s already set, like if you get an ace you have to x out a specific square
