For this round we're having a classic bingo! There are both interpretative and technical prompts on this board. As always with a bingo, the goal is to use prompts that are consecutive (vertically, horizontally or diagonally), and make one icon for each prompt. There are some example icons below to give inspiration, but there's no right or wrong way to use the interpretative prompts. If you have questions about the technical themes, please ask!

The board is 10x10, but you don't need to fulfill an entire row/column if you're making a smaller set - as always, the minimum amount is 5. When using a part that is smaller than the length of the row/column/diagonal, you may freely choose to use the start, end, or any part in the middle.
If you want to use overlapping prompt batches (e.g. a row and a column which intersect in the middle), you don't need to icon the intersection prompt again (but if you want to icon it twice in order get a neater amount of icons, like 20 instead of 19, it's allowed).

There are two modes for this challenge:

NORMAL MODE: Choose prompts in batches of five or more all around the board. For this mode, the entire row/column doesn't need to be filled - after completing a consecutive batch of five, you can move onto another batch of five or more anywhere on the board. Please keep in mind that the minimum batch is of consecutives is five, so for example, if you want to make 8 icons for this challenge, they need to be all consecutive, as they can't be divided into two sets of five or more prompts.
HARD MODE: The same row/column/diagonal must be filled entirely before moving onto a new start at a different location. Sets smaller than 10 are still allowed, and these icons should all be on the same row/column/diagonal. (Note that for sets smaller than 9 there is no difference between these modes, as using several batches of five or more icons for a set that small is mathematically impossible).

Remember to label in your post which prompts were used and which icon is for which prompt! If clearly labeled, you don't need to post your icons in a similar order or positioning as they are on the board.

What does Character Crush mean? Is it "a character you have a crush on"?

Oooh, great challenge idea! And thanks for using one of my icons. <3

If I want to make 20 icons in hard mode: I can do the first column (Reflection to partnership) and then choose 10 prompts in another column like the 4th one (Female character to neutral) ?

Thanks for using my icon!:D

When it says to choose prompts in batches of five, do you mean we can select a single a prompt and make 5 icons?

Yes, exactly that :)

Yes, combining any two full columns or any two full rows would be a great way to do Hard Mode. It's also possible to pick a column and a row, which results in 19 icons, and 20 if you choose to icon the intersection twice (this is optional).

The idea is to make one icon per prompt, so choosing prompts in batches of five just means that you'd pick any five prompts that are consecutive vertically, horizontally or diagonally, and if you still want to make more icons after those 5, you could either continue on the same row/column/diagonal (Hard Mode) or start the next batch of five prompts from another location (Normal Mode). Hope this helps! :)
