_sob_ I play it every day, for hours on end. I can’t escape. I even dream about it. It’s your turn to draw. Your word is: “purpose” ::::sketching away:::: 7 * * * C= (sounds like) :::draws a porpoise::: people start guessing: Dolphin! Blow hole! Porpose! Someone gets it _ding_ the round will end in 30 seconds! two more people guess the adrenaline is rushing around… Round’s over, next round drawn by Texas\_Jo… and on and on it goes… > **[iSketch](http://www.isketch.net)** > > Online multiplayer sketching game. ---

(isketch is like online pictionary) I had to draw “Carnal Knowledge” in the “Movies” room for the third time. Repeats are fairly infrequent, but that one is hard and I got stuck with it THREE TIMES!!! (several days apart) I prefer the trivia room, and the anagrams room… but movies usually has more players. ---

-my word : tirade- I tried and couldnt draw anything even remotely close to it, and I was a graphic artist for 3 years! First I tried to draw a bow (as in tie) Then my mind went blank… I paniced and hit skip. Note: several people had said “Wow, I thought I was bad” Nuff, complete embarrassment for one day… ---
