I can't believe I've only just come across this absolutely glorious browser-based social game.

The first player types a phrase, then the second player (chosen at random from everyone registered) has to draw it. A third player (again chosen at random) then has to try to write what has been drawn and the cycle repeats until 12 players have had turns, at which point the game is complete and everyone can see all the stages. It's like chinese whispers and pictionary mixed into one.

You can follow players, too. Here's me:

This is my current favourite of all the ones I've done. I love that the cheese stays with nothing more to go on than "Swiss".

OH NO(heavy voice) NOT ANOTHER PROCRASTINATION TOOL!

Well, at least I can practice my non-existent drawing skills.

[EDIT] Btw how do you actually get points? I completed 2 games already and have no points.

Seriously, what is wrong with some sites that only accept registrations with specific services? What happened to the good old "any email address will do" policy?

They can forget about me.

I don't see the problem personally. Unless you don't have any of those. If you don't just set up a twitter account and then ignore it. simple

I think it will happen from time to time that members from TWHL will get in the same game. I did with 38_98 in "fisting".
:rly:

[EDIT] Ok here are 3 games I created( after I was finally able to):

I was in a game with a guy called Madcow, from Sweden. However, he is yet to post in this thread so I have no idea if it is the same person.

lol, I just noticed that myself :P.

A pity you can't make private ones and invite players in, Then we could make a TWHL game.

weebitmagic is down for maintenance. The image will load when it's back up, but long story short - Private games will be added possibly as soon as tomorrow.

I can't draw for shit on Drawception.

How do you do it!?

Posted 12 years ago2012-04-13 00:29:47 UTC Post #305335
By being adults?

In all seriousness, if you want to get better at drawing, just do it more. Then you'll get better.
Posted 12 years ago2012-04-13 00:33:21 UTC Post #305336
I can't draw to save my life on a computer. I think Drawception has actually taught me a thing or two. What I tend to do now is block out what I'm going to draw and then outline over the top. Seems to work fine so far. Pretty happy with these two.

I have to try this sometime. When it selects the next player, does it do so from all users, or the pool of ones currently online?

Same here actually. I never did that until this game, and it works wonders.

Somebody ought to optimize the drawing interface and extend it a bit. It proves to be too small a lot of time, and there's no damn fill button!
Also, a good idea would be if they let people upload scanned documents. I'm already horrible at drawing, I'm even more when using a mouse that makes my palm hurt!

Definitely needs a fill button and an undo button because fill is a bastard sometimes. As for scanning stuff in and having a larger canvas, no way. That would remove all the challenge.
