I have a table containing tasks completed in a game I'm playing.  The game
includes an extra BINGO Challenge where each cell of standard BINGO card
contains a particular task to be completed.  The goal is score a BINGO
(row, column, diagonal) by completing five (or more) tasks from the BINGO
cards.  My task table contains more tasks completed than the one included
in the BINGO challenge.

SELECT task, CASE WHEN task='Task27' THEN 'R1C1' WHEN task='Task32' THEN
'R1C2' ... WHEN task='Task94' THEN 'R5C5' END AS bingo FROM tasks WHERE
bingo IS NOT NULL;

This query will retrieve all tasks related to the BINGO that I have
completed and present them in a simple list.  I would like to arrange the
tasks as a BINGO card; so that I can easily see my progress on various rows
& columns working toward a BINGO.

Any suggestions?

BONUS points will be awarded if the query displays a row with 5 NULL values
if no tasks are completed in that row.

I don't think you've fully described your tables so I've ad libbed a 
little.  This is not a complete solution (and certainly no bonus point) 
but it should give you one starting point. Your CTE will have to deal 
with transforming the RmCn into something more useful
create table bingo (ttype text, username text, task text, r int, c int);
begin;
insert into bingo values
('bingo','me','task0',0, 0),
('bingo','me','task1',0, 1),
('bingo','me','task2',0, 2),
('bingo','me','task3',0, 3),
('bingo','me','task4',0, 4),
('bingo','me','task5',1, 0),
('bingo','me','task6',1, 1),
('bingo','me','task7',1, 2),
('bingo','me','task8',1, 3),
('bingo','me','task9',1, 4),
('bingo','me','task10',2, 0),
...
('bingo','me','task71',14, 1),
('bingo','me','task72',14, 2),
('bingo','me','task73',14, 3),
('bingo','me','task74',14, 4)

with bingoline as (
select r, array_agg(task) as taskline from bingo where mod(r,5) = 0 and 
username = 'me' group by r
union                                                            --
select r, array_agg(task) as taskline from bingo where mod(r,5) = 1 and 
username = 'me' group by r
union                                                            --
select r, array_agg(task) as taskline from bingo where mod(r,5) = 2 and 
username = 'me' group by r
union                                                            --
select r, array_agg(task) as taskline from bingo where mod(r,5) = 3 and 
username = 'me' group by r
union                                                            --
select r, array_agg(task) as taskline from bingo where mod(r,5) = 4 and 
username = 'me' group by r
)
select array_to_string(bl.taskline, '|', 'nil') from bingoline bl order 
by bl.r;
;

  I haven't noticed any posting showing your exact table definition, but 
here's more still running on my assumptions and short-cuts.  Of course 
this would all be trivial if the data were sucked into any reasonable 
language adn delt with there for shipment to the UI.


Adding this list of accomplished tasks (the first diagonal)

insert into bingo values
('bingo','rjs','task0',0, 0),
('bingo','rjs','task6',1, 1),
('bingo','rjs','task12',2, 2),
('bingo','rjs','task18',3, 3),
('bingo','rjs','task24',4, 4)
;

\pset null 'not done'-- you'll probably need to use outer joins and to 
coalesce null values.

select r,c,
(select task from bingo i where c = 0 and username = 'rjs'
and i.task = b.task and mod(r,5) = 0) as "B",
(select task from bingo i where c = 1 and username = 'rjs'
and i.task = b.task and mod(r,5) = 1) as "I",
(select task from bingo i where c = 2 and username = 'rjs'
and i.task = b.task and mod(r,5) = 2) as "N",
(select task from bingo i where c = 3 and username = 'rjs'
and i.task = b.task and mod(r,5) = 3) as "G",
(select task from bingo i where c = 4 and username = 'rjs'
and i.task = b.task and mod(r,5) = 4) as "O"
from bingo b
where username = 'rjs'
;

r  | c |    B     |    I     |    N     |    G     | O
---+---+----------+----------+----------+----------+----------
  0 | 0 | task0    | not done | not done | not done | not done
  1 | 1 | not done | task6    | not done | not done | not done
  2 | 2 | not done | not done | task12   | not done | not done
  3 | 3 | not done | not done | not done | task18   | not done
  4 | 4 | not done | not done | not done | not done | task24
(5 rows)
