Excited and nervous in equal measure.
So off to thomil went our original image... This may surprise some of you!
I may have described twice, but I've already forgotten both my descriptions, so no clue what to expect...
Thomil provided a very accurate description for quickbeam
Silent black-suited alien, blue patterns swirling in the background
Ahhhhh well maybe one thing came from that image? maybe???
Yay I made it home just in time!!!

If something was lost, it wasn't my fault
My drawing is EXACTLY like the original
Quickbeam fired back this perfect rendition. He's very dapper.
Oh wow that is such a good representation!
Cee_jay was our next describer and rose to the occasion with this for aaronjennings
Wavy blue white background, grey skinny alien wearing black tux
Oooooohhhhh...
Of course, how did I not guess that was the starting picture?
Thats actually great quickbeam! Exactly the description!
Given we only have 8 links, a lot has yet to become clear
Aaronjennings was spot on, almost can't tell the difference between his and quickbeams!
Haha, these are great, I always think it is really interesting to see the similarities when the images are simpler.
P.S. I think I see the origins of something else from my (Soapy's) description
Great details AJ, love the little pocket square included too.

Wow they're so similar. That almost never happens.
This may be where things went a little off the rails... Soapy's first description of this game to be sent on to Neowise
Alien in a bowtied tuxedo oblivious to blue flying snakes

Aaah it becomes much clearer
Neowise does exactly as he's told with this masterpiece...

Confirming some of my suspicions too!
(If you don't want to quote a whole chain how can you delete all the earlier stuff properly...? One for the OT/Housekeeping section I suppose)
That's excellent, even if flying snakes are wigging me out a bit, eughghghghg

Just delete the bits you don't want. You may find it easier to do that by pressing the View Source button which is top right (Ctrl+Shift+S).
Trigger took one long, hard look and even had an extra word to play with, as his description was ready for tusk
Alien in tuxedo, 4 blue snakes in the sky, wohooo
He has antennas now!

Hit the last button on the right side of a text editor that looks like an A4 page with writing on it, it's the HTML editor, so you can then just cut any of the extra quote-age that you don't want.

Cheers, I could get the words but the boxes were staying, perfect!
Tusk slightly misread blue snakes as blue sky, but still produced a fab piece
I was actually surprised the alien in a suit lasted this long!
We are not getting that much closer to my description...
But these are lovely alien imaginations!
Ohhh so that's where the........came from
