Jeff I played my last round with you. A green bandana on a stick figure's head does not mean "ponytail" to me!!

I am pretty ure you were messing with me, thus my public shaming. If you were not trying to get a rise out of me then I'm sorry.
Xp what do you mean? I just played you.

So if you really want to take the long and free route to changing the words offered to you, apparently you can pick one, go to the draw screen and then just set your phone down for 20 minutes or however long it takes DrawSomething to reset itself.
When you start the app again, you'll be given a whole new choice in words.
I've discovered this by starting to draw "oatmeal" for someone, getting distracted by a crazy child and then coming back later to not find my drawing half completed, but a whole new choice in words. (Which is fine since I've already broken one streak trying to draw "oatmeal" for another person.)

you can just simulate chat by drawing

I've considered doing that but I don't remember why. Could use it as a dating app. Maybe I'll start macking on the randos I'm playing.
"oatmeal" seems difficult. I guess you could draw the Quaker guy, but that's also difficult and I'm not sure that's an internationally recognized brand image.

sorry i didn't get yr oatmeal pplains. i see now you were trying to draw the quaker guy but i figured it was either colonel sanders or mr wtf.
can't believe dan bailed on my 'tempest' before even seeing the completed drawing, jeez!
― ledge, Saturday, 31 March 2012 21:22 (twelve years ago) link
oatmeal sounds difficult. i am missing green, though i did a pretty good Hulk without it.I was given "homerun" so i decided to animate a baseball game. i await the results.

i don't like not having green
― Peppermint Patty Hearst (VegemiteGrrl), Saturday, 31 March 2012 23:56 (twelve years ago) link
I probably confused ledge even more by trying to draw Hall & Oates next to a big turkey dinner, and then circling Oates and the dinner.

Okay, I haven't been able to get on at all for the last few days. It shows the loading screen and then goes back to my main screen without going into the game. Anyone know what's happening?
― emil.y, Sunday, 1 April 2012 02:19 (twelve years ago) link
try quitting out of it altogether and loading fresh. ie make sure it's not running in the background

Yeah, G and her best friend have been doing this - write "Hey you back in Brighton later, do you want to hang out?" then start again with the actual drawing.

Im not bored with it per se but I dont have the patience to draw and do the back and forth so much, which is why I kinda petered out.

They need to have a chat. They need a way to speed up watching the drawing process. They need a goddam paint fill.

how hard could it really be to add more words though? they should be adding new words like every week, yo
― Nhex, Tuesday, 3 April 2012 05:30 (twelve years ago) link
more drawing tools to buy with the coins would have been a good idea, as it is its' way too expensive for colours, in fact they are all the same price.
and yeah more words. if i see 'reindeer' come up again...
― PSOD (Ste), Tuesday, 3 April 2012 08:14 (twelve years ago) link
kinda think more tools would complicate it unnecessarily. would like more colours though - the blue/green/red shades packs only have lighter shades, wtf.

Smartphone touchscreens are capacitive, which means you need to touch them with something electrically conductive, like your skin.
