I grabbed a blank sheet of paper.

I used this blue highlighter.

I drew a picture and sealed it in this envelope.

What did I draw?

Win this!

---

Rules - Each person is allowed 5 guesses total. $100 will be awarded to the first person who correctly explains my drawing in detail. The final verdict is up to me*. Upon verification, payment details will be discussed. I am not an artist my any means but the final product is legible. Award expires on 8/10/10. After expiration, the image will be presented.

Be precise. I will not award prize money for anyone who partially describes the drawing. For example, if there is a picture of a monkey, wearing a banana suit, doing the Macarena, on the planet Jupiter, holding a corn dog, while singing the pledge of a allegiance, and standing on one foot, just stating "I see a monkey" will not qualify.

Use any means possible! Ask your spirit guide, tune into the higher vibrations, whatever is necessary! NOTE - Anyone breaking into my house and opening the envelope will be disqualified.

Let's have some fun!

*Alex Wu gave me permission to start this thread and he was sent a scan of the image prior to me posting to confirm the final drawing, if necessary.

Ooh fun.
I couldn't do this kind of thing if my life depended on it but if i get it right you can keep the money lol

I saw a house drawn in 2d with square windows with the cross in the middle like i use to draw when i was a child.

Can' wait to find out what it is and if anyone gets it

Thanks for doing it

Zach M · 07-27-2010, 10:33 AM

You drew a porcupine.

ssandra · 07-27-2010, 10:57 AM

I think it is a little sail boat, on water. There is water, (waves) and a sun and some clouds and some birds in the sky.

Erin Kronman · 07-27-2010, 11:55 AM

I say it's an elephant holding an umbrella with his trunk in the rain.

KaleidoskopicVision · 07-27-2010, 01:10 PM

It's a dolphin or an elephant.

Wow, Where did you buy your blue marker and that special white paper? If I knew with a special blue marker it is possible to animate a monkey doing the dance of the Macarena while singing the pledge of allegiance on this special white paper... man! On top of it, this character is fashioning a nice banana suit that makes him easy to spot on the surface of jupiter.... wait!

Hold on? All you have is a blue highlighter... so it's all monochromatic.

I KNOW WHAT IT IS!

You are really Mr. Freeze and no matter whta you see it's a world of blue and white, and on the paper is your plan to wipe out the whole monkey population on Jupiter during thier infamous Banana Expo, now that I look at the it, the corndog is really a deep fried banana on a stick! Monkey's standing on 1 foot cause he's an amputee from the great cold war you want to start agian... WAIT that monkey is really your arch nemisis!

NO
NO
NO
Mr. Freeze I will not remotely locate where this monkey is on the planet Jupiter allowing you to take out the only nemisis you have that keeps you on your toes.

Illuminatus · 07-29-2010, 02:58 PM

You drew a heart with an arrow through it.

myjourney11 · 07-29-2010, 03:26 PM

a car on the road with a stop sign.

Melchior · 07-29-2010, 06:15 PM

Guess #1: Two people, stick figures of about equal height, both are smiling, the one on the left is holding out/handing the one on the right what appears to be a $100 dollar bill.

I'm guessing the one on the left is you and the one on the right is me.

Jon Tore · 07-29-2010, 07:10 PM

I see a bird with a pilot hat pooping on the precious hat of the clean queen of England while a sink turns itself on by singing "Ah, ah, ah, ah, stayin' alive, stayin' alive" which unlocks the secret castle where Bowser is trapped by Peach and Mario has to save Bowser. The picture shows a boot too. At least.

cortocabezas1111 · 07-29-2010, 09:31 PM

a giraffe! a blue one.

mikethedrummer44 · 07-29-2010, 09:51 PM

A huge penis.

SheldonCooper · 07-29-2010, 11:07 PM

I don't agree with the rules of the game. I mean, what prevents you from changing the result after a succesful attempt? Not saying that you would, but that if you for example attached a passworded zip (with a very hard to guess 16+ random characters password ) so that after the contest is over we could just open the file with the password to verify the image you had in the first place (make sure not to edit the post in which you attached the file afterwards...) it would make the contest a lot, a lot more legitimate

This wasn't good enough?

No. Just increases the number of people I have to trust by one.

Then don't worry about it, it's not like he's forcing this game on you. You don't have to guess if you don't want to you know. :/

AuspiciousEight · 07-29-2010, 11:26 PM

Guess 1: A line, sloping upward, followed by several lines going up and down, kind of like mountain peaks or up and down scribbles, followed by a line sloping back downward turning into a horizontal line going to the end of the page, perhaps representing a lake, or something.

Guess 2: A single, vertical line.

AlmostGodess · 07-29-2010, 11:27 PM

Nothing. You drew nothing.

I have been surrounded by Neverending Story references for the past couple of days.

Wax Frog · 07-29-2010, 11:47 PM

Probably something lamely simple like a circle.

You're not risking anything at all by guessing.

stewartM · 07-30-2010, 12:01 AM

wizard with a tall hat and a wand

Johnny Metal · 07-30-2010, 12:18 AM

You drew a boa constrictor digesting an elephant.

Johnny Metal · 07-30-2010, 12:22 AM

... or maybe you drew a smiling face!

elucidate · 07-30-2010, 02:48 AM

I got a cocker spaniel sitting in a baby bath with it's tongue hanging out??

Initially though, I 'thought' that you tricked us and didn't actually draw anything.
