Josiah19938 (real name Josiah Brooks, oftentimes nicknamed Jazza) is a Drawception user best known for his YouTube channel named Jazza, formerly known as Draw with Jazza.

History[]

Jazza first joined Drawception on March 30, 2012, the same month the site itself launched. Jazza is a YouTuber and often appears in games on Drawception.

On his YouTube account, Jazza made a video where he took over Drawception and streamed it on Twitch. After this, everyone and everything became Jazza. He started appearing in normal games, often as derails or instead of using a generic character. Many people have warned others to not draw a blonde, peachy skin-toned male in a red shirt and blue pants. Plenty of users joined Drawception after Jazza, and Jazza would often be associated with derails as a result.


In May 2017, Jazza made another video where he apologized for trolling Drawception and encouraged his community to not derail games with his avatar anymore. While this initially backfired, in the end many of his community members did set good examples which lead him to declare it a success. Though he still lives on as a meme on the site. People often confuse Jazza as: "guy in red shirt" "Donald Trump" "blonde guy" and "jazz"

People steadily became more annoyed as people became purposely derailing games to include Jazza in them but the trend is steadily decreasing over time.

On February 20, 2019, Jazza started a stream where he forcibly inserted the message "sub to pewdiepie" into Drawception games, which prompted many of his viewers to do the same, effectively leading to mass derails. Concern about the situation grew on both the Drawception forums and the Discord server during the stream. Reed found out about the on-going situation and edited the news banner on the site to read "Hey Jazza fans! We <3 you, but please don't derail games." Jazza saw the message live on stream and chose to stop playing Drawception temporarily. A few hours after the stream ended, derails started to slow down and the moderators continued to weed out the remaining trolls. Jazza reached out to Reed to presumably resolve the problem and to apologize for derailing.

After the incident, Jazza released a video on February 24th which featured some footage from the February 20th stream. However, this was heavily edited to promote Drawception, not as an advertisement, but as a sign of repentance. Reed subsequently updated the site again to welcome Jazza fans and to promote their "truce" by creating a page with a message and a contest for the fans, the entry fee being only 1 duck. The emote category winners would win 100 ducks, and the grand winner (chosen by Reed and Jazza) would win 100 ducks, a signed drawing book by Jazza himself, and a 50 dollar coupon to Jazza’s store. The contest garnered a total of 892 entries, with Pansear winning the grand prize.
