It is kind of like that game where you write 2 lines of a story and pass it on and the next person has to continue the story, but only see the last line.

Okay, with Firefoot playing again (being the first one to ask
 ) we now have enough to start another game! *Cheers*Each Drawer will have three days to... erm... draw and the Writers will have two days to... you know... write... So, as a guideline: I've put some estimated finish dates for each Player. - Hookbill (Write) 23rd Sept - JennyHallu (Draw) 26th Sept - Orominuialwen (Write) 28th Sept - The Ka (Draw) 1st Oct - Rune (Write) 4th Oct *Woo! My Birthday!* - elronds_daughter (Draw) 6th Oct - mormegil (Write) 9th Oct - Firefoot (Draw) 12th Oct If you are going to be away then, let me know and I'll try and replace you

JennyHallu did not reply, so I've asked Durelin to draw. There will be a slight delay now.

Is The Ka away or something?
She's yet to reply to any PMs or even send the picture she was supposed to draw... If there is still no picture I'll have to hand it over to one of the stand by people.

Ka, your picture was magnificent. Truly.
Rune replied very quickly and now we await Elronds_Daughter to draw a lovely picture.

*Ring Ring*
Hello there, Downers and all! Another Paper Telephone is complete! Lets take a look, shall we?
Players - Hookbill (Write) - JennyHallu (Draw) - Orominuialwen (Write) - The Ka (Draw) - Rune (Write) - elronds_daughter (Draw) - mormegil (Write) - Firefoot (Draw) We began this time with an interesting sentence: “It was the First time Gandalf saw a Hobbit.” JennyHallu drew this wonderful thing to start us on the road to adventure…  Orominuialwen look at it and thought that it looked like: “Gandalf, who has recently been decapitated, makes a shocked remark involving teacups which causes Bilbo to tell a long, rambling and slightly annoyed story about them and how annoying Gandalf is.” The Ka went above and beyond the call of duty with this magnificent Turner prize worthy masterpiece!  Rune told us that it was, quite defiantly; “Bilbo kills Gandalf with the power of thought alone and uses his head as a quite fancy teapot” Elrond’s Daughter had a bit of a think and then drew something that looked exactly like this:  Mormegil wrote a lovely little sentence for us… Frodo Baggins meditates while levitating over a fallen comrade dressed in a black robe but his meditations make him think of a Muslim man. Firefoot had the last word on the subject, drawing this magnificent thing of good!  Anyone up for another?

I've decided to take a longer road for the next Paper Telephone. This time, each player will write AND draw. We will go through the list twice and so everyone can do one and the other. It will mean a longer waiting time, yes, but all the better results are to be expected. Players: - The Ka (?) - Rikae

I'm game for it again as well. Might I try my hand at sentancing rather than drawing? I fear my artistic skills are no wondrous thing to behold...

Looked into matters with the monster of the schedule, and I'll have time to play another game.
This one will be fun, I wouldn't mind crafting a sentence as well this time. ~ Ka

It is done!
For Game Three we began with this sentence: “Aragorn and Elrond decided it was time to get rid of Arwen.” The Ka had a brain wave and drew this:  Rikae had a bit of a think and then told me it looked like: “Galadriel's theme park will compete with Arwen's, so Arwen plots to decapitate her” JennyHallu decided that the best thing would be to draw this lovely thing:  Rune did a dance and then told me that it looked like: A buisness venture let to eternal rivalry between Arwen and Galadriel elronds_daughter took to the skies… Then returned to draw this thing:  Glirdan had the task of writing a sentence… so he did: Arwen and Eowyn had a lemonade selling competition for Aragorn's love and Eowyn was winning. Aragorn made a surprise return as Holbytlass finished off the first half with a lovely piece:  So, part two began with Ka telling us that: Aragorn was in a state of utter confusion and love entaglement; was he to follow his heart and arwen's lack of business savy or, his pocketbook and eowyn's survivalistic greed? Rikae took up the pen and drew some good stuff:  JennyHallu couldn’t believe it was her turn again! Aragorn watches Eowyn and Arwen vying for his love in a contest of fundraising Rune took one look at that sentence and decided to draw this:  elronds_daughter "Arwen and Galadriel engage in the weight-lifting portion of Middle Earth Batchelorette." Glirdan hopped into action to draw this:  And therefore, to finish off, Holbytlass said: “Galadriel and Arwen get some bonding time working out at the Nudist Colony Gym” Well, that was good, wasn’t it?

That was great! Funny how Arwen became Galadriel and then Arwen again while Elrond became Arwen who became Eowyn who became Galadriel... or something like that, it's much too complicated for me.

I would have put more efford into my drawing, but I was in lack of time. . .Not that I suspect it would have been much better.
Good work everyone, it was lots of fun.

The ending had me laughing in tears, seriously. It's simply beautiful how awry that went.
Ah, well, I think I wouldn't mind another one Hookbill, if another of these wonderful telephone games is being held. Thank you everyone, that was genius. ~ Ka

Holbytlass has offered to host the next one. So, yes there will be another one. We'll have to see if it will be a long one or a short one this time.
But the players so far for game 4 (Those who have said they want to be in it again) Glirdan High King Fingolfin THE Ka

I would like to host the next one. I'm not sure about mine and my computer capabilities so I would like to keep this try small so with the players so far I'd just like 1 or 2 more please. Also, it will be straight forward so state if you'd rather write or draw.
Glirdan High King Fingolfin(write) THE Ka |

I will write as the simplest of stick figures is beyond my skill level.

Glirdan(draw)
High King Fingolfin(write) Hookbill(draw) Firefoot(write) Elrondsdaughter(draw) Mormegil(write) THE Ka(draw) This is the tentative line-up, I need one more person to write. I love the different styles used! Rikae,your's is stunning, how long did it take? Rune's reminds me of the (I forget what they're called) those long contraptions with hens laying eggs and mice running on wheels to do a simple action. Sorry, Glirdan, but you didn't put the stickwomen triangle dresses on them  !
