EPYC!
Based on the real life game (http://www.boardgamegeek.com/boardgame/30618/eat-poop-you-cat) and website (http://eatpoopucat.com/).

The play of the game is a mix between Telephone and Pictionary.  Players alternate writing captions or drawing pictures based on only the previous player's clue and the results are often hilarious.

Here are my modified forum rules:

• The first person to reply becomes the first player and reserves their spot by typing "A" and posting.
• That person then has 10 minutes to come up with a sentence, preferably something random or surreal or very descriptive.  It can be Elements related or not.  They must then put the sentence in a spoiler and modify their post.
• Once that post has been modified with spoiler, the second player may then reserve their spot by posting "B".
• That player then has 60 minutes to draw a picture (using Paint, Photoshop, Pixlr, etc...) and then modify their post by inserting the picture in a spoiler.
• Once that post has been modified with spoiler, the third player may then reserve their spot by posting "C".
• That player then has 10 minutes to come up with a caption to the picture and MUST NOT look at the spoiler to the first post.  They then modify their post with the caption in a spoiler.
• Play continues in this manner until the player reserving post "I" has completed their caption.  Their caption does not have to be in a spoiler since the game is over.

• If a player posts a letter and then exceeds their time limit (10 minutes for caption, 60 minutes for picture), anyone who hasn't played yet may take their turn by posting something along the lines of: "Time limit exceeded, taking player "F"'s spot."  They are then given the normal time to complete their portion of the game.  Make sure the forum software settings knows what time you are on, so there are no mix ups.
• When you are playing a game you may only look at the spoiler in the previous player's post.
• Use Reply, instead of Quote, when playing so you don't accidentally spoil yourself if someone else is posting at the same time.
• Of course, once you have completed your portion, or the game is finished you may look at the spoilers to see the chain and enjoy.
• Keep the letter in your post so people can follow the game in posterity.
• You may only play one time per game, so each game requires 9 players.
• A, C, E, G, and I are text and B, D, F, and H are pictures.  Only reply in one of those spots if that is what you want to do for the game.
• Try to keep pictures within a reasonable size (800 x 500 or so) and mouse-drawn is funnier than finding pictures on the web.
• Captions should preferably be one sentence.
• Once a game has finished, a new game may commence.
• Anytime you see a spoiler without another post following it, you may become a player by posting and reserving the next letter.  But remember your time limit--someone else may be waiting to play.

Anyone may start the first game once these rules have been posted.
