Chinese Pictionary

Here's a game which our cell last year played lots, and which we called Chinese Pictionary. They've called it The Sentence Game, but it's still the same thing. Draw a picture to match a caption, or write a caption for an existing picture, this repeats until the start and end captions are completely different, and then the results are published in the archives folder.
Brilliant!

Surname Map

Plot maps of surname frequency. See how your surname has dispersed between 1881 and 1998. Probably most people will think this is really sad, but I thought it was neat. Bonus points for anyone who can work out who's surname is in the picture here!
