Making XSketch Better
Posted By: Ryan at 10:47 AM, Thursday June 26, 2008 EDT
I think XSketch is a fun game as it is but I think it could benefit from input from it's players. So I'd like to start a discussion on what could be done to XSketch to take it to the next level for online pictionary.
If you could change how the games works, what would you do?

For somethings, the black background would have helped. |

How about a symbol for players under 16 years, so you know when there is a kid at the table? An eraser pen Colour, or in your case Color! A 'sticky' for drawing hints, like an ear for 'sounds like' A 'Newbies top 20', only for people who are playing their first month. Some kind of weekly competition,(lasting 24 hours), with new words only - as those that play a lot know which words repeat and can get an unfair advantage from this. Free drinks and chocolate for all! |

at 11:42 PM, Wednesday July 2, 2008 EDT There is a bug that occasionally causes parts of the gameboard to gradually move down the screen and obscure other parts of the game. This can make it so the guessing input is hidden by the drawing area, and the area where you view the guesses can become hidden as well.
This is the "My screen is melting bug". Not everyone seems to be effected, maybe 40-50% of players it seems. Firefox 2 is definitely effected. |

i wouldn't even abuse it too much. lets have a vote. |

at 9:05 PM, Monday July 7, 2008 EDT I would love to see easier clues in the lower tables and harder clues in the higher tables.
Also, what happened to the timer? It seems awful short now. |
