That one was weird? I got hung up on putting "ring" in there somehow, gave up for the night and went to sleep.
When I woke up this morning, it was all "time for you to draw a picture for dexness!" even though I never gave up on the ring thing.

i like this game but it often doesn't refresh when i reopen the app, so i have to wait for it to time out or something so that it will check back in and see the new turns. pretty annoying.

If you're an iOS ~power user~ you can kill the app and restart it. Double-press the home button; tap & hold the DrawSthg icon; when it wiggles, touch the red minus thing in its corner (NOT the X – if you see an X in the corner you are doing it wrong). Then press the home button and open it normally.

omg the first game i played my opponent, whom i did not know but the avatar pic was of a small kid, looked really like they were drawing a pair of balls and a big penis. It ended up being a dogs bone.

One of my opponents (who is not crude) drew a gun by starting with the barrel (with a knob on the end for some reason) and the trigger loop, and it looked EXACTLY like a cnb until she drew the handle

Xxxp On the site I read about that iOS 'kill' thing the consensus was that it just removed the app from yr 'recently used' list, it didn't kill the task at all...

forks <-> nhexthis game is starting to get kinda exhausting though, i'm gonna admit. i want more more more but now that i have over 10 games on tap (almost all from this board, you guys rule!) it's getting tougher to carve out some time, since each word/set of turns takes a couple of minutes
still, i am a savage AND DEMAND MORE WORDS

Regarding original post - why are people drawing the plant when you can draw a cat and point to it's tail :D Lamprey gets a lamp + a sun ray with an arrow point to the ray. I'm super terrible drawing and do use some words like for Crystal I drew a stick figure with straight black hair and blue eyes, drew her mouth open, some music notes and wrote "don't turn my brown eyes blue" you know.. Crystal Gayle :P
if you want to exchange terrible drawings I'm jijifer.
