Buckwheat Posted August 16, 2020 Share Posted August 16, 2020 2 minutes ago, Pebble thats Stubby said: It's a black cat. Wait, so we are allowed to tell and give hints? 2 minutes ago, Pebble thats Stubby said: I ended this game 2 rounds early as we are missing players. Also as there are an even number of players there is one main chain you don't get to be in if we c9mpleted them all. There are also 2 bonus rounds. There should be 21 sentences. 8 main states 9 main ends 2 bonus starts 2 bonus ends. I'm gonna have to work out what is missng I paired them up, it seemed like there were 21 to me. Also please, whoever lost their credit card on the way to World Con, tell this story! I seem an autobiographical feature in this game. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Teri Posted August 16, 2020 Share Posted August 16, 2020 I figured since everyone sees the answer to “who’s Muri”,, it doesn’t give anyone an advantage to ask. My matchups: Spoiler Chain 1 Spiderman tries to save the day when his Hawaiian holiday is devastated by a Sharkcano event (sharks With volcano Eruption). On a tropical island, tour guide Spider-man points out the enormous blue fishes issuing forth from a volcano and making their way to the ocean. Chain 2 The witch's familiar decided to retire 3 months before Halloween. Muri receives a letter thinking it is about his beach holiday plans, but it is really just a detailed schedule of his band practice, while a witch is thinking about flying on a broom. Chain 3 While Alice was clam digging at the beach, a walrus in a toupee (looking curiously like Trump) stole her bucket of clams and ate them all in one gulp. The pretty girl (who looks a lot like Cinderella) and her cat are at the beach setting baby oysters free. Chain 4 Robb, Lily and Maeglin are unhappy because Saint Paul won't let them visit Turkey for their holidays. Jon, Sansa, and Dany are denied entry to the kingdom of heaven due to their communist loyalties. Chain 5 This summer, my evil plot to conquer the world and force everyone to watch season 8 of GOT for eternity was foiled -- AGAIN!!! A man dreams of spending his vacation watching Game of Thrones with his wife but ends up getting dragged to the beach instead. Chain 6 As it turns out, parasailing is less fun when an eagle snatches a shark out of the water and flies it around like a trophy. Someone wearing a blue head scarf in a purple hot air balloon aloft is dangling a fish on a pole as an albatross approaches. Chain 7 After binging on our Cocaine laced toasted marshmallows Nessie tries to eat us and our tents. A couple of Scots lads roast the Pillsbury doughboy (who doesn't seem to mind), while the Loch Ness Monster watches. Chain 8 It turned out there was no room in the campsite for our nine-place tent... (?) A lot of Pictionary players (and a couple of letters), including Count B, Jez, Buckwheat, and maybe Bex, watch in utter astonishment from the North Pole as Pebble rides a meteorite. Chain 9 On my way to World Con, someone stole my credit card. Bex tries to board a plane with a small dog wrapped in a blanket with wings in her luggage, but a pickpicket tries to steal it from her. (??) Kid hands Mum a postcard from Mike Wazowski who’s on an island vacay. Chain 10 The little bookworm's seaside holiday was ruined when she realised she'd run out of books to read on the beach in the first three days of her stay. Balloon girl is crossing the days off till her holiday in the calendar. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Teri Posted August 16, 2020 Share Posted August 16, 2020 I did lose my driver’s license at the 2008 Denver WorldCon during the knighting quest (which made flying home awkward), but that wasn’t my opening sentence. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Fun to see the BWB coat of arms turning into a Ravenclaw one. Muri is a popular figure from a children's book and audiobook.

I suspect Count Balerion interpreted “Ravenclaw’s MasterCard” not as “the MasterCard belonging to a Ravensclaw”, but rather, “a MasterCard issued by House Ravensclaw”, analogous to a Bank of the West MasterCard or a Wells Fargo VISA card. So he drew a Mastercard with Ravensclaw wings. That’s with the benefit of context, though. I would never have guessed it from the picture. A baby angel in a coffin is a more reachable interpretation.

Especially when Jez drew such a perfect Disney Alice? Disney Alice Disney Cinderella I also mixed up Saint Paul and Saint Peter. Such mix-ups happen all the time in this game. There was a bunch of games where Loras and Margaery Tyrell kept being mixed up ... @Eternally_His (for some reason the board won't let me quote your post) - I know about Lily Potter, but of course there are several popular characters called Lily. There was a German children's book about a teen witch called Lili, for example. I mean, I could have a real-life neighbour Lily (I don't) and draw her. I think I remember a game where somebody referred to some George and the next drawing person just drew George R. R. Martin, although it was not this particular George who was meant originally.

I tried drawing the Ravenclaw coat-of-arms on the bag, but there wasn't room, so I scribbled it separately with an arrow pointing to the bag. But it was still to small/sloppy. I don't know this Mike Wateversky chap, but he looks like a green horned Sauron to me. That orange cat is a lot cuter than the demon-Trump-walrus I drew. Thanks for the game!
