Pictionary XXV


Neumond

Recommended Posts

Hello and welcome to a new game of pictionary,

we are right now waiting for the magic number of at least nine players. If you want to participate, please pm me :).

The last round was hosted by the amazing Lany Cassandra. Check it out if you haven´t already: last game

 

If you never played don´t hesitate to ask most of us don´t bite. ;)

 

Rules and informations (shamelessy copied from dear Lany ;)):

 

Game Flow: 

 

[spoiler]

Everyone signed up should start by PMing me with a sentence.
Please title your PM's as '*board name* - Pictionary' or something similar to help me keep track of everything. If you already have a PM chain with me, you can use that regardless of the title.

When the game starts, each of the original sentences will be sent out to a different player. This player will have approximately 72 hours (3 days) to draw the sentence and send me a PM with a link to the picture.
At the end of those 72 hours, the sentence will be sent to a third person, who hasn't seen anything from that chain before. This person will have approximately 48 hours to send in a sentence summarizing the picture.

I hope we get at least 9 players, so we can have 9 rounds. If more people want to participate, that is no problem, the more the merrier. 


If you cannot meet a deadline, please notify me as soon as you've received the sentence (or picture) - or, better yet, tell me before you receive one. I will find somebody else and send it there. I will also do this automatically if you have not completed the round by the deadline (usually 72 hours for pictures and 48 hours for sentences). Somebody who consistently fails to meet deadlines will be kicked out of the game at my discretion. Especially somebody who doesn't announce that they cannot meet a deadline beforehand.

I will update this opening post to indicate what round we are on and when deadlines are.

[/spoiler]

Picture/sentence standards:

[Spoiler]

Any drawing program--Photoshop, Flash, MS Paint--will do. Drawing pictures by hand and scanning/taking a photo of them will also do. Basically, anything will do as long as I can see it.
Having said that, please draw everything from scratch. You can use Google Images as a reference, but don't paste other people's pictures into your own.
In images, words are completely banned! Letters and symbols are allowed/banned at my discretion. But try not to use them except when absolutely vital.
Please don't intentionally mislead anybody. Do the most accurate non-legalistic picture that you can. The chain will find a way to mutate anyway.
Pictures shouldn't be too small, which basically means as long as I can see them and they can be viewed in their entirety on one page, you're fine.
Pictures should be the right way up (this may seem obvious but it has happened, most hosting sites can rotate pictures, and most image viewing software can too.)
Photographs are best saved as JPGs; otherwise, if in doubt, you should probably save as a PNG. Do not save as a BMP under any circumstances or I'll have to ask you to reformat it before sending it onward, and nobody wants that. If you're using MS paint, remember to save your pictures as .jpg NOT keep the .bmp saving.
Please be mindful of where you upload your pictures to. Tinypic deletes its pictures without warning. Imgur is probably your best bet (imgur.com).
No Photobucket. It links to the gallery and not the pictures. Images hosted on Photobucket will not be accepted.
Link to the photo. Not the Gallery.
When you upload, don't save it under a name that will hint at its origins. This is something else that you'll need to reformat over.
Okay, on to sentences. Keep it to one sentence and don't be too legalistic about what you are summarizing.
When you describe a picture, the general idea is more important than the specifics.

[/spoiler]

 

Miscellaneous: 

[Spoiler]

 

Because of board issues, I recommend that people add additional contact information with their starting sentences. 

 

It is possible to set up a free gmail account with your board name, if you are reluctant to share personal information.

Please don't talk to other players about the sentences/pictures you got. If somebody tells you anything about a chain you haven't seen yet, please let me know.
I will note in-thread if somebody is behind.
If you haven't sent a link in within 48 hours (but not the full 72), I might send you a prod (might if I remember). Other actions may be taken if you're inactive for the full round.
Please use 1 PM conversation for this game, otherwise my PM cannot hold a new conversation for every turn and/or thoughts on the game.

[/spoiler]

Bonus chains will be available once you have finished your task for the current round.

I don't trust myself to sign up for this game. I don't want to promise anything and end up keeping you all waiting if I forget to check my messages because I'm not well. Next time.
Have a great game you all, I expect a very funny reveal ;)

And if you need a replacement, Neumond, feel free to contact me, I should be able to do that.

If I came on you my dear, you'd find it difficult to stand up.


So that's what jon Arryn meant, "the seed is strong"

Rocksniffer, I'm waiting for the next three days to pass, after which I'm supposed to feel less horrible. But thank you :) :)

This should definitely be fun. I'll be going on holiday (London!) on the 27th, however, I'll have my ipad with me and access to wifi so it should be fine.
