I had a good time asking several people what they thought of my inkblot, and listening to many of the different ideas of what it could be. Three people of the eight who responded said the same answer, while two others said very similar answers, but not quite the same.
1. Mitch left a comment under my previous post saying "It looks like a bat."
2. Ellery also said the same thing in an e-mail response: "It looks like a really big bat to me.
Ellery
omc6player04"
3. Cheri also Im'ed me "omc6player13: It looks like a bat!"
So three people had said the same response. Here are two responses that were very similar:
4. Ginger left a comment on my blog: "Ginger - Hi! That thing is so like Zorro's mask don't you think?"
5. Brandon said in an IM message: "omc6player08: it looks kinda like a mask, like they would wear at Mardi Gras"
So two people saw masks of some kind.
Here are the three other responses..
6. Paul thought it looked like a mustache: "omc6player12 (7:39:29 PM): a mustache?
omc6player12 (7:39:34 PM): that will be my guess"
7. Jill thought it was an eagle: "omc6player0303 (7:52:17 PM): Hmmm, this sounds so simplistic, but an eagle is all I can think of, even if there's not a conspicuous beak."
8. Finally, Brian had an interesting one: "Private Message board from player 10: hi richard. just so u have my word, ur inkblot looks like batman with a hangover. see u l8r m8!"
So there you have it.. some same answers, some similar, and some very different. Very interesting to see what everyone thought about my inkblot.
P.S. If anyone was wondering, when I first saw it.. it reminded me of the batman signal. Might have been because I just went to see The Dark Knight for the second time though, lol.
