Oh my...
That did change a lot, didn't it? PS. Hooky dear, the picture you have attributed to The Might looks suspiciously like it was drawn by Nogrod and he's also on the list in that slot...

Absolutely brilliant.

I was really rather fond of the pictures drawn by Laurinque and Greenie. . . also the sentence of The Might was to my liking.

Jolly good show.
I do believe that Aganzir's and Laurenique's drawings were my favorites! Let me know when you are starting another round as I'll take a spot.

And I have to admit, I'm in love with Pitchie and Greenie's drawings, not to speak of Eönwë and Oddwen's sentences! What? Of course I want to sign up for the next round! What kind of question is that? |

Hard to say, indeed there where a few moments of brilliance in this one and it was a good game of PT, but I think there have been other more to my liking. I thought the length was spot on though. . . I tend to loose focus when they are too long also I find it annoying when you have to wait half a year for it to be done with. Maybe I would have liked it a bit better if had gotten to make a sentence. . .that is what I take great pride and joy in doing. (drawing is not my strong side) I thought that Eonwe's sentence was funny, but too detailed to be truly hilarious. Last edited by Rune Son of Bjarne; 09-28-2010 at 07:06 AM. |

Rune's critical analysis of this PT amused me.
Okay, so here's the list of those who have signed up so far... Lommy TheGreatElvenWarrior Oddwen A Little Green Laurinquë Blind Guardian Legate Anyone else?

Obviously, Lauri's contributions to this Paper Telephone were the best. They are quite discussion worthy.

I'm signing up for the next one, of course. Thanks guys for making my evening! I especially loved the Who-owls, Freud turning into Gandalf, and celery and broccoli. Not to mention Nog's Saruman.

Signing up too but I'd prefer not to be placed next to Greenie (or Agan or Nogrod or Legate) because I think I always end up being either before or after them (or very often, between some two of these four) and although I love them all, I know them a bit too well and besides change would be refreshing.
PS. Hookbill, I did enjoy Rune's criticism. I think this one was marvellous but it had too much un-tolkieny stuff...

I think it's almost counted as a sign-up if I post on this thread with some comment, of course I would like to joing the upcoming one
Although if there were really lots of people who wanted to participate, and there wasn't enough space, I could give them my place - 'really don't mind, if I sit this one out...

Revived to some degree, but I still don't know where to begin to heap the praise on everybody. Some intriguing transmutations here, like owls > the Who (I love that one!) > Mac and Rikae > Faramir and Éowyn, who then disappeared for a while, with Faramir mysteriously reappearing later and his brain turning into taters... And I have to say Urwen's picture was a masterpiece of abstract expressionism!
Oh, and I'm so totally in for the next round.

Pick me! Pick me!
I would like to second Lommy's wish for not being placed anywhere near the other Finns (they're stupid).

Don't forget Diamond!
Well, I'd be willing to set my prejudices aside for a few months and be placed in between a few Finns (hee hee) if need be. For the good of the game, of course.

In that case, I would actually like to be fully considered a Finn and be placed away from Noggins

I think I get how this works. Count me in, I don't care if I'm an artist or writer -- but be warned that I don't have a tablet or scanner, so what you will get will be crudely drawn with a mouse.

Hookbill, you have BG and Pitch drawing after each other and the mystery guest thus drawing twice. Thought you'd like to know. Also, Aganzir didn't want to be next to Nogrod (or any other Finn) so you could make her change places with Lottie or anyone after her on the list.
And I should be able to draw my picture today or tomorrow and scan it tomorrow...
