Forums - General - Pictionary!

Time to play online pictionary! The goal of the game: pick a popular phrase or song lyric or video game title, then use google image search (or whatever tool you want) to find images that describe the lyrics in question. Whoever figures it out first gets a point: I will try and keep track of points, but I'm sure I'll only update it every couple days so don't freak out if your point doesn't show up for a long time. Leader boards will be up as well, if this actually takes off. Few other things:

1) We can certainly have more than one challenge going at one time. Feel free to post your own, and everyone can try their hand at any of them at any given time.

2) You CAN NOT use pictures that have the words literally in them. So for example, if you're using a picture to describe the word "swing," you can't literally have a sign that just says the word "swing." You should look for a picture of someone swinging a baseball bat or whatever.

3) DO NOT EXAMINE THE IMAGE NAME TO FIND OUT WHAT WORD THE IMAGE IS INTENDED TO REPRESENT. This is an honor system here, folks. A lot of images could be given away by simply right clicking the image and choosing "save as," so for example, the baseball bat above might be called "batswing.jpg," which would give you a strong hint what word(s) the poster is looking for. Just don't do this, okay? It ruins the game. 

4) Rules are subject to change. If we start playing this a lot and people start finding loop holes, I'll close those holes as I see fit.

I'll start. Here's the first one:

It might be better if we at least provide a general category for our intended phrase. the only thing I'm getting from this is Stop fingering your ear, or perhaps "stop (h)and listen?"

 

Also, how loose can we get for using pictures to represent words. i'm guessing we may have pictures that translate to a word that only sounds like the one we want to use.

One point for Super Etecoon.

Okay, we'll go with categories, Grey Acumen. Give a general category for yours: mine would have been "Music."

Other options are Video Games, Movies, Catch Phrases.

And obviously you can get as loose as you want: the only objective is for people to guess what you're trying to put. If it's very obscure, they'll have trouble. If no one ever gets it, you can complain about how stupid we all are.
