The Valentine's Day Bingo Fest will run from February 1-28. The theme is Valentine's Day and it spans both love and loss. To diversify options, I've done several things...
1) Prompts are divided into several groups. Romantic prompts feature positive relationships based on sweet affection, but don't have to involve sex. Erotic prompts are the carnal and kinky ones. Heartbroken prompts are about lost relationships and other things going wrong. Platonic prompts are for asexual spectrum, family, or otherwise non-sex/romance inspiration. Solo prompts celebrate self-love in all its forms.
Also on the Bingo Card Generator:
Love Songs
Romantic Vocabulary "You are ..."
The Language of Flowers
Other relevant lists:
Asexuality & Demisexuality
Kinks
Sex & Romance
From previous Valentines fests:
Romance Book Titles in 2021

Nonsexual Intimacies
Note that Arospec Awareness will be running February 19-25, after Valentines Day. If you're participating in that, you can make an arospec bingo card and play it as part of your awareness week activities. Feel free to refer other folks here for that purpose -- they can play even if they aren't regular members of this community.
2) A 3x3 card is offered in each current category, in hopes of making it easier to blackout. A 5x5 card mixes everything together for variety.
Feel free to mix and match the prompts, though, if you want a more diverse card. You can make a standard 5x5 or whatever you want. Creative interpretation is encouraged, and you don't have to stick to a category just because you're using its prompts. Sometimes it's fun to make ordinary things sexy or erotic things platonic.
3) Challenges! These are prompts that make the bingo card more exciting. You can add them to any category, or skip them, as you choose. They do let you claim multiple fills from one work.
=Multiple Orgasms= combine scenes about 2+ adjacent prompts,
=All-Nighter= double the fill size of adjacent prompt,
=Cheater= write cheater and cheated from prompts on opposite sides of this square,
=Aces High= turn adjacent romantic or sexual prompt platonic,
=Mirror= write adjacent prompt as positive and negative in different characters
4) In addition to the standard bingo patterns of line, blackout, etc. there are others especially suited to this holiday: Arrow, Arrowhead, Bow Tie (two versions), Diamond (three versions), and this set of Valentine shapes.
