Text Charades

[antiaircraft]

This is a game a few of us came up with in a random chat. Basically, it's charades with ASCII art. You try to draw something with text (use code tags if you want) and the people after you can try to guess what it is. If somebody gets it right, they can post the next thing to guess at. :yes:

 

And here we go!

An anvil falling on someone?

[antiaircraft]

Correct! :D JB, go ahead.

[jumpingbeans]

OK. I'll try, and it might be easy

[antiaircraft]

Hmm... a line of flagpoles?

[jumpingbeans]

No, sorry, it's not working. How do you get it exactly in?

Edit: There we go. It's ready to be guessed now.

[antiaircraft]

Use code tags:

Edit: Is it a guy with a big bruise on his head?

[jumpingbeans]

Close. And thanks, I figured it out.

[antiaircraft]

Is it a guy with an odd hairstyle perhaps? Or a horn of some sort? xD

[jumpingbeans]

Here's a hint, since your no way near:

 

Holiday

 

[antiaircraft]

Ah! Is it a jack-o-lantern by any chance?

 

(Random: I was about to guess Santa. :P )

[jumpingbeans]

Took you long enough. I thought you'd get it straight away!

(And really? Santa?)

OK, you can go.

[antiaircraft]

Suffice to say that I'm bad at this. Didn't you see my snowflake on the quotes thread? xD

[jumpingbeans]

A rocket? A flashlight? A bow-and-arrow?

[antiaircraft]

First guess was pretty close. :yes:

[jumpingbeans]

A missile? A homing missile?

[antiaircraft]

A bit further off... think simpler. :)

[jumpingbeans]

Jet? Engine? Bullet?

[antiaircraft]

It's a jet! Admittedly a badly drawn jet, but still. :P

 

Your turn.

[jumpingbeans]

OK.

I hope that's semi-clear. xD

[CAV of Gang Green]

A pinball machine?

 

If not then it's a bed.

A cat sleeping on a bed.
