Congrats, Mark! I have no idea how you pulled that off in three pages. Masterful stuff.

Thanks to everyone who participated.


Final thing:

I'm gonna do a front page blog post with some mini-reviews of top scripts. I see Mark already has one up but I'll still do one for him.

So, if your script was "Writer's Choice" or "Writer's Also liked" shoot me a PM if you want yours included. And let me know if you have a website link you want included, or any other information you want people to see.


That rug really tied the room together.

There was no doubt Cyborn was going to run away with this one - Great job, Mark!

Really enjoyed this challenge as well. Thanks for putting this one together!

HUGE congrats to Mark! That was an amazing three pages!

Thanks to James for organizing!

Thanks to those who read mine. Obviously went over better with the more mature readers than the younger ones.  

Also, a reminder, anyone wanting to host one of the OWCs, just pm Don.

Thanks all. This was the first challenge were folks worked out which script was mine, which has me a little worried I may be getting predictable or something!

Congrats to Mark for Cyborn. I also had that script at my top.
Kudos to other favorites.
Nice job with the challenge, James.

I've gotta give a shout-out to my sleeper pick, Holy Roller. Very underappreciated.
