Nah, Drawing Grounds has been active! At least once a week I go on it, and someone's always there to play with. Could use a little menu refinement and some new words... maybe a refresh button, in case we don't like the words, but largely it's a pretty good game!
Should I hassle Mike or Tim via PM, about building some more functionality into the API? Tom's the ram-rod here, but he just got back from San Diego... I'd ask Lil' Jim, but he always seems on the rag :|
I know, I'm actually surprised that the Drawing Grounds is still active. I check back weekly and am always amazed at the things people have created.
I had mentioned that sort of thing to Mike, but they have so many other things that take priority. I'm pretty sure it's on his "wish list" though :P
dude how come i was so desperate to play with someone that i got the loner medal just to see the rest of the game XD. weird the my link to the post actually leads to a totally different part damn.

Gave it a five when it was under judgement, really wish I had a better computer and more time with it...
Your name came up recently, with regard to a new or modified Drawing Grounds. Is there the possibility of making it a collaborative real-time drawing palette, where invited NG members can draw on the same page at the same time?
Oddly enough, the idea was born here <a href="http://sabtastic.newgrounds.com/news/post/852800">http://sabtastic.newgrounds.com/news/post/8528 00</a>

Wow, I'm honoured that someone actually brought up my name/game xD
Unfortunately, the current system wouldn't allow for that. The current system won't even let users modify another user's save file. This sort of thing is doable with if I had server or whatever and definitely would be neat. I have already pondered about doing something like this if such features were added to the API (but this is very unlikely).
I like the idea though! A tool for NG members to collaborate on NG and work on something together would be sweet :3 Maybe one day ;)
