      Ugh, I try to get to the SPAM quicker but we have a new kitty and I have been distracted. It is gone now. 😀

    New kitty tops spam any day … and I enjoy getting to see it in it’s brief lifespan.

Welcome to Team Paranoid, Oscar! Spoiler alert: they really are out to getcha!

Next comic page planned for Nov. 20th. In the meantime, please accept this documentary evidence of new kitten Morgoth as he discovers the enigma that is the empty soda box.

Draw, pardner…

So I’m still not very good at drawing.

Here’s a situation where that’s not necessarily a bad thing.

Behold Drawception.com, which has apparently been around for many years but which I stumbled upon recently by pure accident. It is described as… well, here’s the blurb from their own About page:

Drawception is a free web game that combines drawing with the classic “Telephone Game”. As a phrase is drawn and described by players it changes in unexpected ways. Miscommunication and hilarity ensues!

Basically, when you register and choose to play you are presented with either a picture needing a caption, or a caption needing a picture. You are provided with no context beyond what is immediately in front of you, and only once the game completes do you get to see the whole progression and where your submission falls within it.

It’s like the parable of the blind men and the elephant, except when all’s said and done you may find out that it started out being about cockroaches. The site provides their #2 game of all time as an example of the insanity: https://drawception.com/game/ZODEsT1ym7/sonic-rainboom/

You generally get about 10 minutes to draw something using their in-site editor. There’s paid upgrades but eh, the free version has been fun enough for me, and there’s even a slim chance I might get better at drawing since they’re making practicing it fun.

Or maybe I’ll just stick to captions.
