Not sure I should take the poll as I've not read all the entries but from the ones I've read I'd plump for Blood Roots.
Play it how you feel, Alffy. Personally, I need to put my mind at ease that I'm not ruining chances for anyone by not reading their script before voting.
This challenge was more doable for most because we didn't have forty scripts to deal with, but even still, life can get in the way so I understand if people need to cut there reads back and still get a vote in.
I don`t wanna play the sympathy vote, but did I tell you my back story.... I came across to America on a canoe made of straw with my dog skip( I did all the rowing!) in search of the American dream, upon reaching land, I was captured and sold to be used in a prostitution ring, didn`t complain did what I had to, although the men where a little rough. I managed to escape with only herpes to my name and walked into the nearest library( as you do) and got on the nearest computer, after googling hardcore porn, up pops "simply scripts" and the OWC. Well then I used my family history as a story(my mom is a witch), (my dad is mechanical engineer) to create the 10 pages that i presented to you..... Well it works on American Idol!!
Mark p.s the above story is not true.... My dog`s name was scrappy.

This story has to be a lie - when I google hardcore porn, the name Jeff Bush 'comes' up...
Voted so i could see the results. Only read about six, so kinda unfair. I didn't enter or I would've read them all.
Plus, I know who wrote the one I voted for, yet, not playing any faves. Just thought it was the most original.
Sad to see Pagan Man is not getting any love. I thought it had the best legs to continue on to what could be a good feature. It just wasn't my fave 10 pages.
I hate to be that guy to vote for a third party candidate. It's like a wasted vote.
An hour ago, I expected to vote for Blood just to break the tie. But I figured I better re-read. And in all good conscience, I have to vote for Secret War. I liked it the first time, but on second read, I really appreciated it. Even more impressive, I think, based on the formality of the dialogue, is that this seems to be a relatively new writer. Excellent work if it's a veteran, but really outstanding if a new writer!
Relative to the number of entries, this OWC had a healthy turn out for reviews. Of course, it helps that several members who didn't enter still did reviews, but a good turn out, I thought.
Cherry Bomb for writing style Blood Root for coolest single scene Hellfire for use of witch technology Dry Spell for plain fun Mitch for memorable character introduction (followed by The Purifier) The Secret War for the biggest canvas Of Mice and Monsters for most unusual idea Witch Hunt for twisting of history
