Our rules have been updated and given their own forum. Go and look at them! They are nice, and there may be new ones that you didn't know about! Hooray for rules! Hooray for The System! Hooray for Conforming!

Eat Poop You Cat! - Holy shit! Two sentences up. Links in OP.

RyadicRyadic Registered User regular
What a catchy thread title! :)

So, what is Eat Poop You Cat? Well it's essentially a party game that requires the following things:

Pen(cil)
Paper
Friends
Sense of humor

Well since this will be a PbP, Pen(cil) and paper won't be needed. So you're free to use whatever image making application you want.

Since I'll be hosting this and the majority of my posts for this will be while I'm at work, all participants will be required to host their images on imageshack. Photobucket is blocked, and imageshack is the only site I know of that isn't blocked.

Ok, so how do I play? Well here are the rules:
Each player starts with a piece of paper and a pencil. At the top of the paper, each player writes a sentence. Then they pass the papers to their left. The next player "draws" the sentence a la Pictionary, then folds the paper so only the drawing is visible and passes it to their left. The next player looks at the drawing and writes a sentence that they think the drawing represents. This continues until all players have their original paper back. At the end, all players unfold their paper, and much hilarity ensues as "I am the Walrus, koo-koo-ca-choo" becomes "Hitler and I danced the night away in a disco."

Here's a sample of what you can get:
Spoiler:

So how are we going to play this? Well since this is going to obviously be different than being in person, I will kind of have to figure out most of it on the fly while figuring out what works and what doesn't work.

Since there is no clear winner or loser, people are free to join and drop as they'd like. This thread technically can go on forever.

    Awesome! 3 is minimum for this game to run. So if no one else signs up, we can at least play with this. I'm not sure when I'll close it off, though. I'll figure that out sometime today. But likely we'll start submitting sentences to me tomorrow.

  • RyadicRyadic Registered User regular
    Ok, I figure that I'll cut off sign ups at around noon tomorrow. This should give you guys time to think up your sentences.

    Post all questions regarding the game in bolded orange.

    I feel the game is pretty self explanatory, but any questions you have don't hesitate to ask.

    Alright, that's it. Signs ups are closed. I was going to limit it to the first 10 people, but TehSloth posted in the boardgame thread saying he'd be down, so I just couldn't cut you.

    Anyone else that wants to sign up, feel free to do so. We could put you on reserves for when someone drops or if I decide that the game can handle more players.

    Current players:

    Please submit your sentence by the end of the day. When I get to work tomorrow (which will be about this time) I'll choose the best sentences and start the game. If you don't submit a sentence, no big deal. I think I'm going to use a maximum of 3 sentences.

    As far as submitting your "artwork" I think we should put a 24 hour limit on it, then you're skipped. Now, of course life gets in the way or maybe you're on to something awesome, then just simply let me know by PM or the thread and that time limit can be extended. But after 24 hours of me sending you the PM I hear nothing, I'll just skip you and go to the next person.

    This may sound harsh, but this is just a work in progress and I think this would be the best way to keep things going.

    Don't anticipate this being a very "post heavy" thread, so I guess the random updates from me will be what keeps it going.

    Right now I've received 3 sentences. Fading, Typhus, and DrS have all submitted one.

    Blue-dot this thread.

    Incidentally, this game is known as "The Greatest Game" at the college I graduated from.
    There's a reason for that.

    Do you still want more sentences so that you can pick your favorites?

    Yes, definitely. I would like for everyone to submit a sentence. If you have trouble, you can forget about it. No big deal.

  • RyadicRyadic Registered User regular
    I've chosen my 4 sentences. I ordered these players so that the sentences will be passed pretty evenly and hopefully no one ends up with two at once.

    Player list:

    1. Kias
    2. Simonwolf
    3. Drswords
    4. Daius
    5. TehSloth
    6. Infidel
    7. FunkyWaltDogg
    8. Typhus733
    9. Horseshoe
    10. fadingathedges
    11. The Cow King

    The ones in Lime currently have a sentence sent to them in their PM box. I'll use orange to signify someone who has a picture in their PM box and need to write a sentence about it.

    I'm about to send out the PMs, so hopefully I don't fuck up.

    Reminder:

    Images are to be uploaded to imageshack only. Any image uploaded to another site will not be accepted.

    Pictures should be in my PM box no later than noon EST 1/28. Again, if you are having difficulties or your drawing is taking a bit longer than expected and you need a small extension, that's perfectly fine. But make sure you PM me or post in this thread.

    Two things:
    1. Count me in as a reserve!
    2. Shouldn't the deadline be 1/28, not 2/28? :P

  • FunkyWaltDoggFunkyWaltDogg Registered User regular
    Is there any particular reason you stopped at 11 participants rather than twelve, aside from ensuring that no matter how many sentences you have running, you won't be able to space them evenly? :P

    I didn't, and still don't, know what to expect. I'm basically doing this shit on the go. I guess I could go ahead and add CC now and evenly space it out.

    Crimson, you up for that?

  • fadingathedgesfadingathedges Registered User regular
    I'm assuming we are looking for a pen-and-paper simulator here, i.e. one color (black or blue) on white with a single uniform brush size. That's what I'm doing anyhow, tell me if I'm doing it wrong.

  • RyadicRyadic Registered User regular
    I honestly don't give a shit. If you wanna come out like Da Vinci and create an epic work of art, that's fine with me. Just realize the game is meant to be fun and humorous. So, black and white stick figures will suffice as well.

    Great images guys! They've been forwarded, and now players with images have to write a sentence what they think the image is trying to say.

    steam_sig.png
  • RyadicRyadic Registered User regular
    Well damn, Simon. That was fast.

    Then again, this is probably the fastest part of it. If everyone is able to get their sentences in today, then the next players can start on their images, sooner. I'm going to just forward them as I get them. I may actually adopt this model throughout the remainder of the game.

    Also, I'm going to be out of town for the weekend, so I'm not sure how I'll end up doing this. I'm going to a board game fest in ATL, so I won't be spending a lot of time on the PC. I will have access, though. So I'm not going to set a deadline or anything, but same rules apply. Try to get them in as soon as possible, if you need more time let me know.
