Don't really get it, it tells you what to draw, you draw it, then it tells you what you've drawn?

I'm sure I'm missing something.

If you click on your images after the game ends it shows you how it made it out using images already drawn

I drew what I thought was a decent attempt at 'black cat'. It guessed 'asparagus'. >__<;

A surprising amount of my drawings end up looking like penises to be honest.

That is indeed an excellent steak - and in only 20 seconds too! I found it needed to be on a plate before it recognised it as a steak, and mine was nowhere close as good as yours.

Edit: Oh, Stu's wasn't on a plate, so that disproves that theory. Never mind.

I found with that paint game that it doesn't like props. So if it asks you to draw a steak it's only looking at the shape of the steak, not the plate or the peas you put beside it. If it asks you to draw a hockey stick it doesn't want the person holding the stick, just the stick itself. It's very fickle.

Lads how would ye go about hosting a ww game via houseparty. We're trying to find an alternative to quizzes! But some of our participants are in the same room using the same "houseparty" I can't think of an inconspicuous way for the wolves to nominate!

That's what I thought but like if you're playing via houseparty with the Lady of house Baggly and I ask the wolves to nominate and she starts texting you'll know its her... It might be insurmountable

Get everyone to write something on a piece of paper, but wolves have to write somethings extra.

X-Name.

Can't the host turn off people's video at will in Houseparty? Pretty sure they can in Zoom. That's your "night" phase, frees the wolves up to do things via other windows or their phones or what have you. But leave audio on so you can get suspicious of anyone who moves a muscle in a manner that their microphone detects.

I don't mind cooking, mostly because it means I'm not in work -_-

I don’t usually mind cooking and it’s been BBQs for the last week but sometimes it feels like such a chore.

Lol me and Mr Molly have been discussing this for the past week. Where our first 'meal out' will be when this is over. It's like we're on a deserted island or something fantasising about food!

We've decided anyway that we're going to our favourite Indian restaurant The Jharna, then for a big dirty burger and milkshake in Bunsen, and then to a new steak restaurant we had been meaning to go to since it opened. Not all in the same night of course.
