Prompting Reindeer Games! 🦌 - Call List

(Print) Use this randomly generated list as your call list when playing the game. There is no need to say the BINGO column name. Place some kind of mark (like an X, a checkmark, a dot, tally mark, etc) on each cell as you announce it, to keep track. You can also cut out each item, place them in a bag and pull words from the bag.

  1. Got Copilot to generate a C# Pattern implementation (interface and class).
  2. Copilot Chat completely misunderstood your intention and gave a non-code, non-sensical answer.
  3. Successfully generated a responsive React component using SCSS or a UI library (e.g., Tailwind, Bootstrap).
  4. Used Copilot Chat to ensure there is 100% test coverage (UI + Backend)
  5. Prompted Copilot to generate a creative festive code comment
  6. Generated a function or script in a non-required language (e.g., YAML, PowerShell) for a build/deploy step.
  7. Prompted an authentication scaffolding (e.g., sign-in form, basic token logic).
  8. Prompted a DbUp migration script that correctly uses UPSERT pattern
  9. Used Copilot to refactor/simplify a complex C# method by changing the pattern it uses.
  10. Prompted a database schema that correctly sets up a many-to-many relationship.
  11. Prompted a T-SQL Stored Procedure that accepts parameters.
  12. Used Copilot to set up the basic state management (e.g., Context or Redux) for your React application.
  13. Successfully used Copilot Chat to explain a core concept (e.g., CORS or Thunks) without writing code.
  14. Used a single prompt that was more than 120 words long to generate a significant block of code.
  15. Prompted a DbUp script that performs a data seed or initial configuration (i.e., INSERT data).
  16. Generated a fully functional Integration Test that calls your C# API endpoint.
  17. Used Copilot to set up error handling (try/catch) for an API endpoint in C#.
  18. Prompted Copilot to implement logging or telemetry (e.g., Serilog or similar) in the C# backend.
  19. Generated a custom React Hook that uses useState and useEffect.
  20. Used a prompt to implement input validation on a React form field.
  21. Used a prompt to generate a T-SQL View based on two or more tables.
  22. Copilot suggested a function/package that is structurally plausible but non-existent.
  23. Complete 3 PR’s that didn’t need any code review or additional prompting
  24. Copilot generated code that was structurally correct but fundamentally solved the wrong problem (Confidently Wrong Code).
