(homage to previous announcement banner aww yeah)

Hey all! I mentioned doing another game of Telephone here and a good handful of you seemed interested so let's see if we can get this rolling.

After reading the info below (or before, depends on how eager you're feeling today lol), if you wish to participate please comment saying you'd like to join and include how you would like to be contacted!!! I'm looking for 8 to 11 more people to join!

There is also a Discord server specifically for this game: https://discord.gg/6kzEnax

EDIT 5/31/2017: Still trying to fill up the final slot if only so that there's an even number lol, but if not no biggie c: nvm!
Since it turns out that I'm moving because of...stuff |D, I will probably give everyone their assigned #s and start this thing off next week probably close to Wednesday the 7th! So keep your eye open for the update!


THE WHAT
The game of Telephone is usually played with a word or phrase given to one person at the start of a chain and they whisper what they heard to the next person in line, then that person whispers what they heard to the next person, etc, until it reaches the end, then the last person announces what they were told and you see how close it is to the original word or phrase. It usually isn't close at all but that's most of the fun!

This is played the same way but with art! The first person draws a picture and then passes it to the next person to draw, etc. Easy! Just like in normal Telephone, details can be lost or changed along the way, in the last game the picture went from a plain background to having trees and the entire color palette changed, it was a really interesting progression.


THE HOW
The process/rules are fairly simple:

> The first person in the chain draws whatever image they wish BUT! It must be:

[*] 700px h x 1000px w (you may paint/draw the image bigger but just remember to resize it before the final submission! That way everyone's can fit neatly together without anything getting cropped)
[*] TEF-related, so deer, forest, Twin Gods, Forest landmarks, community characters, etc.
[*] Not overly complicated, a character and maybe a simple background if you wish. For example:
<---click!

[*] You may draw your own deer if you wish or someone else's, or make one up! (this would be a really great opportunity to draw a new mask/pelt/antlers/set you think would look cool in the game~)
[*] If you get stuck trying to think of what to draw if you get put as first in the chain we can generate a topic for you so don't sweat it if you do get stuck.

> After the first person is done they then CONTACT the next person in the chain and send a copy of your image to them (either stored on deviantart stash or photobucket or other hosting site, DO NOT POST IT HERE OR SOMEWHERE PUBLIC, everything must remain on the down-low until the end of the game!) so they can redraw it.

> DO NOT POST YOUR IMAGE HERE! Just like whispering in normal Telephone, we keep the images secret between the people in the chain, so the second person is the only one to see the first person's image, and the second person only sends their image to the third person, etc. When everybody has drawn their picture, I'll ask them to be submitted to me and I will compile and post them!

> Don't worry about trying to copy the picture you receive EXACTLY, just interpret what you see in your own style while keeping the major elements the same, such as the colors and the general pose and the like.

> Try to finish your image in no more than 4 days, if you need an extension because something came up, just be sure to say something to me or post here to let me know, it's no biggie if you're late we just don't want to keep the rest of the participants in suspense~

> When you go to send me your final image, please make sure it is a 700 x 1000 PNG!

> Have fun with it! c:


THE WHO
To contact me with final images you may either:

Join the Discord server: [link] (general chat or you can Direct Message people to keep it private)

-or-

email me: cs.sidemail@gmail.com

When all the slots have been filled I'll take everyone's name and mix them up to determine the order, then it'll be up to the first person to start us off and then for each person in the line to keep it going!
