>> and I was wondering in order to call a bingo do we have to fill 5 prompts in a row (diagonal, horizontal, vertical) or will the more fun patterns of making be accepted? <<
All the basic patterns are accepted: row, column, diagonal, etc.
All the others are accepted too, although if you're doing an unusual pattern then it's helpful to name the pattern. There are links to patterns in the main post above.
Some of the external fests limit which bingos they offer or how they call them. Doesn't matter here; you can call bingo on any of those patterns here.
Some of our fests have thematic bingos attached to them. Frex, if you look at recent posts, you can see that I just called bingo with the S-shape from the Science Bingo Fest from November.
