Perhaps, but I found using it to be kinda stupid. I think it fails because you can see what the other person is entering. I think the words should only be displayed when there's a match - and at the end too, of course.
why, you can't see what the other person is entering or has entered, until the end. i found it silly in an other way: it has a list of off limits words that must have been matched in previous sessions, while it seems so much wiser to let users enter any words and categorize images based on all sessions where a given image has appeared. as in, if 100 out of 100 users label an image with 'car', its main key word should be 'car'. also, they register only one match per image in a session. as in, if we both enter 'hat', then 'pointed hat' in a session, only 'hat' (the first match) will be counted.
Hmmm. Tried again. I thought the 'off limits' words were my partner's words, but seems not. So, maybe it's better than I thought.
I'd say the 'off limits' words are there to force you to think of the less obvious words. So I'd guess after a hundred (say) players have entered 'car', it becomes off limits. Goes and has another play...
