Dude some of your drawings are really, really good! Like the arab guy in front of your pyramid, or your wrestlers.
ETA: Do you guys buy colors ASAP or save up for bombs? I used my first five in ~10 games and haven’t really missed them (Except for when I missed “Wrestler” on a 39 streak… DOH!) and I bought 1 pack already, now I’m nearing the 2nd one and debating waiting for bombs.
I find the colors (at least the basic pack that I bought) MUCH more useful than the bombs. With the bombs, they tend to become a bit of a crutch for me, but if I don’t have them, I do better at figuring things out.
Right now, I have some bombs because I was desperate for different words to choose from in one of my games.
Dude, that Bowser was unbelievable. I’ve never gone so long and then gotten it right. I feel my hopes dropping, but on that one, it just crystallized as Bowser all the sudden.
I love when you descramble the words before the drawing is done, or even more than a few lines. I’m picturing the other guy saying, “How did he KNOW?!”
I ponied up for the full version to get rid of the ads, so I had extra “cash” for a color pack - that helped a lot, because you really do need at least green and brown. I know somebody missed my “wildfire” because they probably had no idea those were supposed to be trees.
ETA - sandra_nz had an awesome one yesterday - first a wedding, and I was all “bride? groom? ceremony? wedding?” and she scrapped it and then there were a bunch of dudes carrying protest signs under, um, I dunno, the aurora borealis? And I was all “WTF? Protest?” and then she scrapped that and just drew two rings together and I ALMOST gave up, I stared at that thing for like five minutes, and then it came fully formed into my brain “Oh, duh. Union.”
Wait one stinking minute - I’m watching somebody try to guess something of mine (“shy”) and they don’t even have those letters available! Is that a known bug?
I kept trying for “dragon” and “godzilla” and so forth. It wasn’t until way, way, late that it turned into Bowser for me. It’s a good reason to keep going.
I am playing someone who is so good at getting the word across that I always can guess it before she is 1/3 through it. And then there are those who (a) don’t know the word (one person drew a perfectly clear computer mouse..too bad the word was “muse”), or (b) believe in abstract art…
I bought colors and they make a huge difference. I have enough for the cheapest bomb refill, but I am holding out till I absolutely have to have them.
you have to be careful when you pick the word - On a couple occasions i must have tapped one of the other words, and didnt notice until I was sending it that I was doing the wrong word - The recipient must’ve thought I was nuts.
WOOHOO !
Getting an iphone from work today !! But will probably still just use the Ipad from home unless I get trapped somewhere.
