Admittedly I can't draw Nirvana
This was easy, depending on how tasteless you are willing to be to get coins. :)

I WTF'd then Lol'd.

Had to write out "Harry potter school" for Hogwarts though.

Stick figure with a wizard hat being handed a paper from another stick figure with an "A+" on it. Done.

Well, maybe next time.

Here's one for you- if I draw a stop sign, what would you think the solution would be?

It depends on how many letters it says it is and which twelve letters I'm given to work with. That's the point.

Alright, it's seven letters. And at least three of the letters in "catpoon" are in the solution.

Well, that's seven of the twelve, then. Let me know when you decide you want to share the other five.

That's kind of what I was going for Chris to say instead of what he did...I thought if I draw a half-assed octagon and wrote "STOP" in the middle, the person would get it. Instead I got answers like "catpoon" and "oatgoon"- I guess it was a stumper.

/I would tell the cat to keep its poon to itself
//I wasn't being THAT cryptic...
///BTW, broke a string of 10 in a row...kinda didn't like that but hey

I've had that word come up, and I drew exactly what you described. Interesting.

And I don't think you got the point I was trying to send across, which is that being a shiatty artist works in DS...because your guesser has all of that information sitting right in front of them to work from. DS is as much of a game of anagrams as it is of communication.

So to say "well, guess what I drew", without giving me all of the information I would have in front of me in a real game situation? I'm simply not gonna bother guessing.

Honestly I'm not sure why you didn't just draw an (full-assed; c'mon, it's a basic geometric shape, and you do have an eraser) octagon.

(If you really want to make it clear, you draw a triangle, then a red X next to it. Then a square, same thing. Then you draw the octagon and stick a green check-mark next to it. But, really, with the letters there? Draw an octagon, black pencil line, ship it. (Plus it avoids the weenie clue with the writing in the sign.) If your partner can't get that, find a smarter partner.)

Perhaps they could solicit drawings from home viewers/users for the show? Sort of like Trivial Pursuit: America Plays.

And boy, did that work out. The trouble with home viewer elements is they're so uninteresting for the millions of home viewers who aren't the one chosen.
