Pictorious is a game where you and your friends participate in and create memes. We're combining the fun game mechanics of social games (Draw Something, Words with Friends) with the ubiquitous activity of photo-sharing. Would love to hear the HN community's feedback on our little project!

I really like the concept of it, but I can't give feedback here on the app because I don't have an iPhone.

I think initially people will be excited to play contests against one another, but the issue I've dealt with in the past is: (a) someone starts winning massively and the contest becomes stale or (b) there's too many contests, and the community is spread out too thinly.

Thanks for the feedback... will definitely watch out for those 2 things going forward. Were the contests you were running for groups of friends or for the broader public? (we're experimenting with both)
