Drawball
From Encyclopedia Dramatica
Drawball.com, as the name implies, is a Flash site where you draw freehand inside a giant ball. Drawball consists of two balls, one for more serious, legitimate drawing, and another for vandalism. Even though the two balls don't touch, Drawball is still very gay.

The Epic Tale of Drawball
/b/ finds drawball
At some point in the past, (citation needed) Anonymous found the drawball, and began to randomly vandalize crappy drawings of dogs and anime, until it was agreed upon that they would claim drawball as their own, by tagging it with a giant /b/. The combined efforts of Anonymous ensured the /b/, which started off very small, encompassed most of the drawball. Drawings of longcat and tacgnol were also added to the tops of the /b/ for great justice.
The great /b/lackout
The Great /B/lackout occurred on the morning of March 23, 2007, in which tens of /b/tards raided Drawball in retaliation for destroying the large "/b/" drawn in the middle of the ball. Everything and anything that wasn't protected was drawn over with /b/lack ink from the center out. As with most sites /b/ sets its sights on, Drawball eventually collapsed under the heavy influx of traffic caused by angsty teens armed with mice.
At 2:06 PM EST, Drawball crashed due to AIDS and fail. After it was restarted ten minutes later, all /b/tards were granted 100% ink instead of the usual 15%, allowing much moar carnage to take place. Much lulz were had.
/b/lackout's demise.
Later that day, Drawball admins got wind of what was happening and reverted the 100% ink to 0% causing great sadness and bawwwing amongst the /b/rothers. The epic raid against drawball's faggotry that was scheduled to take place on March 26th was also completely overshadowed by Mootykin's return to /b/ and his revolutionary re/b/oot movement that followed. The great /b/lackout experiment was over. But small scale raids still take place to this day.
Finland Owns Drawball
In 2009, when the Drawball was very interesting for /b/, Finland turned it into a huge Finnish flag. This shows that the country is full of win, or possibly that nobody cares about an online flash game any more. When Drawball was hacked, the Finfags cried and moaned for days, everyone else laughed, much lulz was had.
ebaumsworld hacks drawball
On Monday June 8th, 2009, eBaumsworld hacked Drawball; it wasn't /b/, honestly, and replaced it with a Dragonforce song and a flash file of the Awesome face being bended and refracted repeatedly. Much lulz were had.
For historical records, the flash file and the images needed were downloaded and saved in this file:

This file, somewhat larger, includes the music:

Drawball is now back, The Flood Return
..and and now has Polish faggotry on it. Yet we still see an old enemy reproaching the scene. The Flood as we call them are attempting to invade and liberate Drawball as they did before.
But victory will be with The Flood, the /b/tards will soon be soon driven off along with their duck and faggotry.
EDIT: The mods have stepped in and now its just the garbled shit it always was.
DRAWBALL 2 HAS BEEN FUCKED
The admins of the site have decided to fuck with us and now we can only use black and white to draw. NO COLOR FOR YOU, ITS OVAR.
How to vandalize
Vandalizm is fucking impossible because about 90% of the ball is protected because it's GOOD ART... makes sense to let it sit there forever instead of doing the responsible thing and archiving it. this of course means that putting any new art on there at all is also impossible.
The only way to draw straight lines without having your ink disappear because of anti-bot measures is as such: Left click where you want your line to start, then right click to bring up the Flash menu without letting go of your left click. Release the buttans, then move the mouse to where you want your line to end (the contextual menu should still be up) and left click. You will have a straight line between those 2 points, at the regular cost of ink. But remember, it's very easy repair straight line vandalism using the same technique, so curved random lines are better.
Project /b/lue/b/all
Greetings from the /b/attlefront /b/rothers. Today, November 7th 2009 marks the beginning of the end for drawball.
Thanks to much R&D and a little old fashioned reverse engineering (thievery) /b/ is now in possession of a script which will draw, over and over, perfect spirals on drawball 2.
The script is for a program called "autohotkey" http://www.autohotkey.com after downloading and installing it, just click the link below and save the file to your autohotkey directory.
http://www.megaupload.com/?d=08519ZKS
http://www.megaupload.com/?d=CFZ77LLP (mouse at sleep 50, works better on slow wireless connections)
Go to two.drawball.com and double-click the file you just saved. Select blue paint, middle-range gamma and largest brush on the lowest line then put your pointer in the center of the viewing/drawing circle.
Press the Windows-key & Space to start drawing, Windows-key & X to Exit and Windows-key & P to pause/unpause the script.
The plan is called operation /b/lue/b/all and is pretty self explanatory.
Make drawball two, blue.
We're already well on our way.
Also if your wireless connection is having a problem with disconnecting while this script is running, download the second version which runs at half speed.
Hope this helps, and we would gladly join up with operation white-out or someone else with a color based masking scheme I just saw white as massive fail as it hasn't done shit in all this time
Also.. drawball is now giving ink percentages in the thousands several times per day.. so this should be EASY.
Case study
| We start with a nice picture of some ugly dog drawn by "Galoti". | Looks like some amateur vandals have scribbled over the drawing. | Here comes a pro! Not only has the dog been completely vandalized but Galoti has been told in no uncertain terms that him and his dog are not welcome. Now, FUCK OFF!! |
Here's what Galoti had to say on the matter at Drawballfans.com:
Despite his claim "You'll never find the new picture of her either", Galoti actually drew the new picture of the same fucking dog in the same fucking spot. How fucking stupid can you get?
"I was just getting her back to normal....wasted my limited ink again." - Galoti
A few days after the site admin tried removing the ink and banning the people (i.e. me) responsible. This exercise ended in complete failure, not only was he unable to remove all the scribbles but he accidentally banned Galoti also. Win win!!
Flood/4chan war.
Recently some new forum from a unknowen site have been writing THE FLOOD and INFECTED on the drawball in areas. 4 chan's drawings.The Flood is creating much drama and lulz. The dudes are from this site here http://www.bungie.net/Forums/topics.aspx?forumID=10 What got them in the war is this http://www.bungie.net/Forums/posts.aspx?postID=30790833&postRepeater1-p=1 The Flood lost the war (albeit after several successful Flood marks on the drawball, and the destruction of many 4chanian marks) due to a Flood forum mod locking any thread having to do with drawball. Their are still small resistances, but they have threatened to rise up again and take what is theirs. Once 4chan realized they were losing, they attacked the core of drawball and disabled it.
Places to vandalize
For those without access to Drawballfans.com here are some places to kill right now. Just click the link and fucking KILL, KILL, KILL!!!:
| Name | Description | Link | Status |
|---|---|---|---|
| Galoti's dog - now a picture of some girl | This should be self-explanatory | [1] | FAIL - but Galoti does keep trying. Well of course, why would galoti draw, you can't!!!! |
| Black Ball Area | Lots of balls for people to draw good art in. | [2] | FAILURE IN PROGRESS - Most of the artists have left, but there is some recovery with the balls themselves. Remember nothing short of total failure is acceptable! |
| South Park characters | Six characters from South Park and the South Park sign. | [3] | FAILURE IN PROGRESS - This area is not maintained, so the vandalism builds up. |
| Speech bubble | Anime bitch saying "Soup is a cult." | [4] | OH EXPLOITABLE - Write in your own phrase.. |
| Boxes | Bunch of blank boxes | [5] | OH EXPLOITABLE - Draw shit in the boxes! |
These spots are now unaccessable, unless you have access to ball 1.
Project Chanology on Drawball
From 02/22/08, till sometime in nearing 9/12/08, the Moralfags from Enturbulation[6] began to spread their faggotry on Drawball, resulting in a war between them and 420chan.
The war led to epic failure for Anonymous, which started to cry even more and became increasingly butthurt because they realized that they were unable to even doodle over a simple drawing, earning them the nickname INTERNET DOODLE MACHINE. After repeated failed attempts at spamming other chans with blackup requests, they realized that all they would get there was a ban. Further Bawwing ensued to many lulz from the Moralfags.
As 420chan continued to spam the official symbols of Anonymous (Swastikas and giant dongs), the Care Bears easily overwhelmed them with the power of love and free hugs, and thwarted their vandalism efforts. It is uncertain at this point whether the vandalism is only coming from 420chan, or from angry drawball artists as well, since XENU.NET took up a huge chunk of the ball.
All seemed well for the moralfags, until the Patriotic Nigras crashed into the Drawball and spread forth their lulz upon it like a gushing spring of rape. Each time the moralfags bring back their bright pink and flamboyantly gay website, it is erased.
Draw ball for trolls
Drawball almost died from the Anon delivered cancer, so the mods had a new idea. Make a new ball to split the trolls, but instead this idea caused even more butthurt and drama. Currently the second drawball is only covered in fail and cancer, soon after it's birth it is now a haven for /b/tards consisting of only sketches of NIGGER, swastikas, and Awesome. Though currently it is home to numerous XENU.net logos, it does have one long, longcat and tacgnol as a guide to win.
But the fact any legitimate artist would never draw here makes it entirely pointless troll at all. But since the average drawball troll has the intelligence of a cactus many sleepless\sexless nights are spent drawing giant dicks and swastickas. WAY TO GO, YOU FREEDOM FIGHTERS.
The mods at Drawball also went and plastered it with every over used meme from the last 4 years (pedobear, over 9000, ect) to make it SUPER KAWAII DESU:3!!1
And yes, the balls are touching.
PROTIPS:
- Don't use the largest brush, fucktard. The ink used by each brush is NOT proportionate. The smallest brush will allow you to use ten times moar ink, albeit at ten times slower than the usual pace.
- Some drawings are protected, meaning that you cannot draw over them. Don't waste your ink on these.
- Tell everyone you can, preferably by linking them to this page.
- Drawball tools no longer works and has a virus, use this instead: http://rapidshare.com/files/105243324/SVG_drawer.rar.html
- Don't drain your ink bellow 30%, the moar ink you have the faster it refills. The more you draw the faster it refills as well. Just need to find the right balance.
- Currently Drawball gives new users a 5% allotment of ink when they first start using Drawball. This number increases over time to at least 100%. The best way to get the most ink is to simply wait it out after you reach 0 and let it refill automatically. But if your bloodlust for vandalism must be quenched immediately, simply reset your modem to get a new IP address, and thus you will start with 5% ink again.
