I’ve started a couple games with SenorBeef and Zsofia so far. I set up my account through Facebook, and I don’t know if I’ll show up as Christine Lynne or as some OMG . . . word salad. Let me know. I have a keen mind, but fat fingers. ---

I kinda raced through that last batch of drawings since they’d been waiting, but I’m proud of yours, whoever got my mice drawing! ---

You can actually get out of that game if you go back to your home screen and force quit Draw Something, which is what I had to do last night until I found whoever I drew “Marine” for because my fiance desperately wanted to watch them try to guess from what I drew. (Look, I drew that when we were stuck on the highway for an hour, okay? God, it was bad.) So I had to keep going in and trying games and realizing it wasn’t that one and backing back out again. Congratulations, though, whoever that was! ---

The only new game I’ve received from anyone is from “pop835” - not sure if that’s you or someone else. ---

Apologies for my slow response today–very busy at work so I’m not getting many breaks to draw. 🙂 ---

I just tried to do a couple drawings at work on my iphone, and now have a newfound respect for ANYONE doing this only on a phone. ---

I’m on, as “roniab”. I’ve tried to note everybody’s names, and I’ll be requesting games over the next few days. ---

So that’s who you are! I can’t keep track of SDMB names and game names. I seem to play in spurts when I have time, so I’m sorry if I play too slow. And no one needs to worry about being too slow with me. Deal? 😉 ---

And no one needs to worry about being too slow with me. Deal? 😉 Deal! Same with me–I usually go through and do a whole bunch of them at once when I have a work break, but I don’t play much on weekends or after work. So if you don’t hear back from me in a day or so, don’t worry–I haven’t forgotten you. 🙂 ---

My Draw Something name is Alan.Parsons, and I would like to play with people who suck and only take one turn a day or less. 🙂 [Previous page](https://boards.straightdope.com/t/anybody-playing-draw-something/616612.md?page=10) [Next page](https://boards.straightdope.com/t/anybody-playing-draw-something/616612.md?page=12)
