I've nothing against it as such, just that I fear a Facebook account would take too much of my time that seems to be so scarce anyway...

But as it is looking like it is where most of the at-the-moment-communication nowadays happens (an e-mail is soo slow and outdated no-one checks them any more) I maybe forced to do it... just to get to the people when I need to find them.

Interesting changes in our culture, but understandable. I hate it having to check three or five different places behind a username and a code to find out what I should know myself as well. One shared place would be fine.

So bye-bye choice?

Only two more before me again, I need to find the disk for my scanner...

You can use mine. I won't look, honest.

Even though this game is slow (and I do nothing to speed it up!) it is well worth the wait. I'm anxious to see everyone's artwork!

Yes, indeed! I love, love, LOVE Paper Telephone!

Thanks, Laurinquë. I might need that.

Beregond · 06-02-2009, 08:51 PM

Well, it's your turn, TGEW - so begins the second round!

And I apologise for what I "sentenced" you to, but when you see what I had to interpret you'll understand. Or...not. I don't know.

Well, I haven't gotten it quite yet, so that's that...

Now as for confusing sentences, I've had to draw a picture for one before. Come to think of it, with Paper Telephone, most sentences that are sent usually are confusing...

Beregond · 06-02-2009, 09:58 PM

Every time I think it might be easy?... Nope.

Indeed. Pictures for Paper Telephone are always a bit difficult to draw. But it's always fun and always has a good result.

And crazy, don't forget the craziness.

I've had to draw pictures of such crazy sentences, from a Nazgul burning down Rhosgobel to a Frodo giving the ring to a turnip... and I only joined late in the thread!

Nogrod · 06-12-2009, 06:14 PM

It's moving... slowly but steadily.

Nogrod · 06-13-2009, 03:30 PM

As it looks like this thread is advancing quite slowy, I suggest that I move Lommy and Aganzir a bit earlier (they're going to take an Inter-Rail -trip beginning in the early July and will not be able to be online but on internet café's for a month beginning from the end of June?

So here would be the new list...

Is that okay with you Hookbill and Eonwë (you're the ones I'd need to move into later positions)?

Yes, I had to draw, my very first picture for Paper Telephone. It was about Gandalf writing a letter about his computer being naughty. And About a loquacious Leopleurodon!

Hookbill the Goomba · 07-01-2009, 09:06 AM

A while since the list was updated... how's it all going?

Nogrod · 07-01-2009, 02:18 PM

Mnemo has gotten the PM already some time ago... Anyone knowing anything about her?

Isabellkya · 07-02-2009, 10:23 AM

What about Sally? I think the two are real life friends or roommates, or something like that?

Mnemosyne · 07-02-2009, 05:06 PM

Hey--sorry for sitting on the call for so long. I'm currently working a very time-consuming summer job, but next week is my week off so I'm planning on drawing my pic then. Hopefully will have it in Monday to make up for lost time.

Eönwë · 07-11-2009, 10:33 AM

Any news?

LadyBrooke · 07-11-2009, 10:10 PM

It's probably a little early to be asking, but can I join in the next round? This looks like so much fun.

But if we do a double round can I draw in the first round and near the top of the list so I can get the drawing done before crunch time in December (hopefully).

The Might · 07-12-2009, 05:43 PM

I was going to ask the same as LadyBrooke. I was actually looking forward to joining the next round, but somehow due to RL stuff totally forgot about that and just now noticed that a new round has been started. Would be nice to get the old pencil out and draw something nice.

Mnemosyne · 07-12-2009, 08:23 PM

My pic is 85% done. I should have it scanned and sent in tomorrow.

So sorry for the delay, y'all; today has been one of the busiest and most hectic days of my life.

Mnemosyne · 07-15-2009, 12:58 PM

If this is delayed any longer, at least it's not my fault.

Whew!

~Mnemi

Nogrod · 07-16-2009, 06:13 AM

Welcome to the next round LadyBrooke & The Might. This one will get done... eventually.

Nogrod · 07-17-2009, 01:32 PM

Progressing, progressing...

Three more to go!!!

Crazy, crazy, crazy stuff.

Hope things get cleared up in the next couple of calls - I'm hoping to get by with a couple of lines and a dot or two when it comes my turn.

Or maybe it's just because you're more excited to see the results.

Probably. I am quite excited to see the results. So excited that I might burst...Or maybe that is the tea that I drank?

I just emailed the drawing, so no more pressure on me. *phew*
