This is taken from Facepunch.. sorry for my lack of creativity.

The game consists of some stages:

1. Write something. This can be anything, from "Stick on ground" to "Zombie Jesus punching Easter Bunny"
2. Draw something. You'll get a piece of text from someone who examined some other picture or started a game by writing something. Now draw it.
3. Examine something. You got a picture, obviously of a clown in outer space crying over a taco. Now write what you see.

See how it goes? When you get some text, you muster all of your artistic skills and draw it. Someone else sees your picture and writes what he sees. Someone gets the text and draws a picture of it, someone gets the picture, etc.

It's really fun and some of the contributions made me piss with laughter.

An example of what can happen. These were both from the same game.

P.S. To start a private game you have to individually add people's names to the list. Meaning, if you choose to play this, which I recommend you all do, considering it's not entirely a real time sort of thing, add your Username to your post. My username is Snuggletummy.

Here's one of the things I took part in... Wow. http://www.brokenpicturetelephone.com/view?id=18484

I believe it is important to note that the single best part of this game is the boss mode button. It's like the one from N, but even better.
