how about this (similar to isketch)

first right guess gets most of the pts
second right guess gets some pts (but less 1)
third right guess gets some pts (but less than 2)

and then for every right guess, the drawer gets more pts. Would better reward good drawings, that more people can get.

also make it so in the main chat the right words can't be said (ie kibitzing)

Replies 1 - 6 of 6

Ihe current setup makes for a faster, more involving, more competitive game.

It would be boring to get the right answer then have to wait another 30 seconds while the slow people struggle to get it.

Ryan,
should've warned us that the scoring is going to change. we wouldn't have been so obsessed with scores in the past few days. i had like 300K.
but that's ok. new scoring system makes more sense.

OMG it's a beta, it's bound to change often.

guys i'm not saying wait until 3 people get it. more like once it's solved, have like 2 more seconds left so other people can get it.

I think there should be a bigger reward for drawing pictures more people can understand.

Yeah, sorry about the scoring. This is all test and not really fully released (no promotion yet).
