Me too, please.
 (And I'd prefer to draw early, too, because I'll be travelling from mid-June to mid-July too.)And since I didn't say anything more yet - this was indeed such a hilarious round! I loved all of it, that was full of highlights... aww. My only complaint is that people write too long sentences but even it didn't ruin this (at all). *loves paper telephone*

I'll play next round! The only thing is I can't be online the last week in June and the first week in July except on the weekends (
 ) so if that could be avoided, that would be great. I can still draw then, but I couldn't send it in for a while.

Wow, that was definitely one of the funniest rounds of Paper Telephone so far!
Also, sign me up for the next round, though if I'm drawing, I'd rather it was before mid-July-ish.

Another round sounds great.
Maybe if we'll have this next one as a Christmas present eight months from now... that would be a nice goal.

Heh, that's exactly what I was thinking, Might. Having it done by Christmas would be just great.

Psst people keep your sentences short.
It's funnier for everybody if you leave the unnecessary details out - the person who draws has more freedom and the message changes more. An interpretation of a situation is always much better than a description of it, if you get my drift...

*steps out of a time warp*
Got room for one more, pretty please? I missed at least one round, to my shame. I could be travelling for a lot of July, if this goes that long. If that's a problem leave me out because I really don't want to delay the process, but I'd love to be involved otherwise. EDIT: Woot! Thanks.

Wow we're moving really quick!
 Four days and already six people have done their share.I wonder if Greenie should be moved up the list too because the same regulations apply to her as well as Lommy and me (and Nog)?

After a busy time, I've finally got 'round to posting it. This one's already crazy, and it's only been a week!

We're about a quarter of the way there already!
I think this PT is going to shock you all! It started so innocently. Well, not really, but... um...

Anyone know what's happened to Brinniel? I tried contacting her on Facebook and everything.
Don't make me move on! But if there's no reply by, say, Thursday, I'll re-shuffle and move on.

No, it's just that Brinniel realised that with this speed we'll be done too soon. And then Paper Telephone takes place too often and each round loses some of its importance.

So sorry guys. I pretty much banned myself from the Barrow Downs after I got lynched in wilwa's game (two weeks ago) because I realised I was using precious schoolwork time for WW and I didn't have my priorities straight. Over the past one to two weeks, I've been working on my final project for over 12 hours a day almost non-stop. I'm hardly exaggerating here...not only haven't I had time to check the Downs after seeing Hookbill's message, but I pretty much abstained from eating and sleeping too.
No worries, I'm okay now and my schoolwork is done. Just read the sentence and it looks like it should be fun to draw...just give me a few more days, I should have it done by the end of the weekend. Again sorry, I really wasn't expecting it to reach me so quickly!

Hookbill, do you suppose that you could re-post the list further down on the thread? It would be much easier to find that way.
