Project description:
"I have a legacy Windows title called “Stateside Bingo” by Lee’s Bingo that tops out at 30,000 pre-generated cards. The developer is no longer around, yet the hall I support now needs far more unique serials—ideally 500,000 and, if technically feasible, up to 999,999—without losing any of the existing flashboard display or winner-verification logic.

Here’s what I already know and can supply:
• the original EXE (no source code)
• confirmation that all card data appears to be embedded directly inside that executable rather than in an external database or text file
• the current workflow for printing, calling, and validating cards, which must remain unchanged for operators

Your task is to reverse-engineer or otherwise patch the program so it recognises and generates the higher serial range, then test to be sure a card printed at, say, #450,123 still verifies correctly when entered on the flashboard.

Deliverables
1. Modified EXE (or clean patch/injector) that raises the card ceiling
2. Quick walk-through or notes on what was changed so I can repeat the process if a future update is needed
3. Proof it works: a short screen-recording or screenshots showing cards beyond 30,000 being created, printed, and verified

Acceptance criteria
• The application loads normally on the same Windows machine it runs on today
• Card generation, printing, and verification all succeed for any serial in the new range
• No new external dependencies are introduced

If you’ve handled binary patches, disassembly, or legacy Delphi/Visual Basic executables before, this should feel familiar. Let me know any additional information you need and roughly how you’d approach testing so we can move ahead quickly." (client-provided description)
