    This is my first attempt.
    Do I get the painting pmd from Deja or the painter before me?
    What's the rules around describing and do I send them directly to my painter or back to Deja?
    Thanks!

    Will do, thanks Ted :)

    Welcome to the madness Purple (and Ted) :D... The game is played via PM from host to player (only) until the reveal... So, I shall PM you the last image made before you, and you PM me (only) back with your 10 word descriptions, which I (as host) pm to the next painter.... We keep the content private until the reveal, so no discussing content on thread.

    Hope that helped explain things, Purple?

    So does each describer only see the previous picture or all previous pictures?
    Is it 10 words or 10 descriptions?
    Like if I see a witch, does witch count as one word or can I say hairy, mole faced witch wearing black cape?
    Thanks and sorry for the dimwit questions!

    The describer only sees the previous picture. So Deja will Pm you a link to a picture the painter before you drew. Then using ten words you describe it. Like if it was 'the girl with the pearl earring' you might say 'girl looking over shoulder, shiny earring, big eyes, wearing headscarf'. You send your ten words to Deja and she sends them on.

    Haha yeah that's the challenge. Sometimes there's a LOT going on in these paintings and it's hard to get it into ten words. I'll just say this... Punctuation can be VERY important! :D


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 13,283 ✭✭✭✭Purple Mountain


    I'm excited now. Do ye reveal the original picture first or last??

    Purple Mountain, original picture first , then the first description, and so on down the line , absolutely brilliant everytime!


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 13,283 ✭✭✭✭Purple Mountain


    Ye are very good and patient, thanks! I think I have the concept now.

    Sorry for adding an s to :o 'images', was confusing! Yes, you only see the last pic from the previous painter. It's a 10 word limit for your description of that paint. Any word counts as a word, so if you choose to add 'hairy' to describe the witch, it's 2 out of your 10. If it seems vital, some people combine 2 words into one with a hyphen, or even create a new word like "frogtopus".

    Some choose to describe the paint as a list of things they see: 'moled witch, frog, fish, building (etc)' and some take more of an impressionistic approach like "some crazy arse armageddon scene from pink panther" - it's your choice as long as you stick with 10 words or less.

    There are no dimwit questions! :)

    *Googles "how to be a art expert"*


  • Posts: 0 [Deleted User]


    I think that's why I enjoy being a describer. Makes me feel like an art critic! I really take in the whole painting, the subject, the medium, the colours and brush strokes and then I spend a great deal of time (60 seconds) picking out what I believe to be the most compelling and consequential features.

    "Seductive cat" "human donuts" and other such sophisticated musings.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 544 ✭✭✭SnowyMay


    Nice to eat (I mean meet) you....
    Muhhahahaha..

    Whaaaaah!!

    So many memories already. Square boobs, seductive catfish, frogtopus, human donuts. Did anybody mention the suicidal parachutist yet?

    Um, I mean, welcome to the madness, Purple. :D


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 71,799 ✭✭✭✭Ted_YNWA


    Suicidal frogtopus is obviously the next level so.

    Well, for better or for worse (probably worse for bolgbui), my painting is done. :)

    Seriously challenging description. Almost broke my MS Word Shapes skills. Fecking fantastic by Purple. Am suitably traumatised. :pac:
