I didn't realise that I was so close to the end...

It was just Paper Telephone as usual until ridiculously detailed naked Bard showed up. As we sure that so much chest hair is family friendly? :p

Aganzir 07-16-2012 10:09 AM

Great.

I cracked up at Eönwë's trollface troll, and even more at Legate's decision to make him Nogrod. :D

Greenie's pic is really beautiful - something you wouldn't expect in Paper Telephone, as Legate said.

Rikae's picture is terrific! It's so... awkward! :D And Nog's Shasta and Kath are brilliant, as well as Eönwë's interpretation of the picture.

I love TGEW's picture and her Hookbill Half-Cats.

Next round, anyone?

Why, thank you. I liked my pouncing Hookbill the best, I couldn't help but giggle when I pasted his head on that cat.

I'm totally up for the next round! The good news for me is that I think I've finally been able to download the right scanning programmes for my printer onto my computer. I'm terrible with Paint.

MCRmyGirl4eva 09-04-2012 08:28 AM

Signing up!

Blind Guardian 09-05-2012 12:37 PM

More Paper Telephone? Count me in!

TheGreatElvenWarrior 09-14-2012 11:46 PM

*Knock, knock*
 
If we wanted to start up another round of Paper Telephone soon, I am willing to mod.
Here are the wights who expressed interest already (not including myself):
Galadriel55
Aganzir
MCRmyGirl4eva
Blind Guardian

Oddwen 09-15-2012 12:26 AM

I would like to sign up, please

You're on the list now!

Aganzir
MCRmyGirl4eva
Blind Guardian
Oddwen

A Little Green 09-15-2012 02:06 AM

Count me in, honey! (And love your Title by the way, only noticed it now!)

Rune Son of Bjarne 09-15-2012 03:33 AM

I am in as well

Legate of Amon Lanc 09-15-2012 05:51 AM

Sign me up as well, please!

Nogrod 09-15-2012 05:59 AM

Me too.

TheGreatElvenWarrior 09-15-2012 05:48 PM

Here's the new list. How many people usually play, twenty? We have ten now, so more people could sign up.
Galadriel55
Aganzir
MCRmyGirl4eva
Blind Guardian
Oddwen
Sally
Nog
Greenie
Rune
Legate

Rune Son of Bjarne 09-16-2012 05:28 AM

I don't think it would be a great loss if you chose to have less participants than normally.

I think you can even start and eventually add people on the run, it will take a while before it reaches them anyway.

TheGreatElvenWarrior 09-16-2012 12:32 PM

All right, that is a good idea. I will come up with the sentence and start later today.


Galadriel55 - draw
Aganzir - write
MCRmyGirl4eva - draw
Blind Guardian - write
Oddwen - draw
Sally - write
Nog - draw
Greenie - write
Rune - draw
Legate - write

If one more person signs up, then we can play doubles and everyone will get to write and draw, but they can sign up anytime during game play and I'll add them to the end.

Galadriel55 09-17-2012 04:01 PM

Whoa, just came back and saw the PM with the sentence in my inbox. I might take a day or two drawing it with all the things I have to sort out. I just didn't expect th PT to start so suddenly.

That's okay. I'll give you two or three days before I crack down on you... like a mod. ;)

Hookbill the Goomba 09-17-2012 04:17 PM

Agh! If it's not too late, I'd like to join, please! :)

I'd be happy to add you to the game, if you don't mind going last. You 'liked' my post about the game on Facebook, but you never told me whether or not you wanted to play. I didn't want to sign you up if you didn't actually want to play this round.

And now with a Hookbill:

Galadriel55 - draw
Aganzir- write
MCRmyGirl4eva - draw
Blind Guardian - write
Oddwen - draw
Sally - write
Nog - draw
Greenie - write
Rune - draw
Legate - write
Hookbill (Half-Cat) - draw

Just shifted all my work aside to do the most important thing in the world aside from playing ww - drawing PTs! It'll be ready for tomorow. :)

Fantastic! You know the drill: just send it to me when you're done.

TheGreatElvenWarrior 09-25-2012 04:36 PM

I am reposting this to remind everyone of where we are at. I am currently waiting on MCR.

I literally just sent my sentence to TGEW. I'm sorry it took me so long, by the way. *blushes*

TheGreatElvenWarrior 10-08-2012 10:07 PM

Sorry about the wait, folks. I went camping over the weekend and was fairly busy before then. I was not able to check the Downs until now. I am going to send Sally's sentence off to Nog after this post. The game is actually going along fairly quickly, or so it seems when on is the mod. :Merisu:

Thinlómien 10-16-2012 04:02 PM

Would it be possible to sign up still? :Merisu:

Galadriel55 11-03-2012 10:17 AM

Where exactly are we right now?

Nogrod 11-03-2012 01:12 PM

I just came by to finally check the sentence so as to finally draw it today/tomorrow...

I have been extra-busy but will send it forwards this weekend.

Sorry about that.

TheGreatElvenWarrior 11-04-2012 05:51 PM

I am finally sending [B]Nog's picture to Greenie/B].

Lommy, you certainly may join.

MCRmyGirl4eva 11-05-2012 01:25 PM

This is tedious... I'm so impatient!

Aganzir 11-06-2012 09:19 AM

The good thing about rounds that take long is that you've forgotten what you've written or drawn before we are halfway through.

Hahaha! So true.....

Galadriel55 11-07-2012 08:33 PM

I think that the good thing in general about PT is that you don't even have to pay attention to it when it's not your turn. You think about it for a couple days when it's your turn and then you can forget about it until the end. It's immensely fun and requires the smallest commitement from you.

That is indeed a lovely thing about Paper Telephone. Unless you're the mod, that is. :p

This is the reason why I missed a round of Taters to Taters. I forgot about it for a day or two and all of a sudden Boro was Facebooking me, and I was too late. :eek:

Eönwë 11-20-2012 01:57 PM

Any chance I could get in on this at this point? :Merisu:

I would be more than happy to add you, but I'd like to end on draw, and you would be write. If anyone else would like to join too, I will add both of you. I'll post something on the Downs group on Facebook.l


EDIT:
Apparently I did not add Lommy to the list. Now we don't need anyone. I am daft.

TheGreatElvenWarrior 12-04-2012 02:30 PM

A Quick Update
 
Guess what, guys? We're almost done! I need one more sentence and one more picture, and then they'll all be in and I'll post the completed game on the thread. Until then, you guys will just have to preoccupy yourselves with something else. This may be done by Christmas. Won't that be nice? :D

Galadriel55 12-04-2012 04:27 PM

Nice holiday cheer, certainly. :)

TheGreatElvenWarrior 12-12-2012 12:06 PM

It's all done, guys! Just give me an hour or so to organise my thoughts and all of this mess, and it will be posted today. :D

EDIT: Apparently I deleted G55's picture and my first sentence. That is the only thing I have left to retrieve. Thanks for waiting.
