Something a bit different this time.  While we are waiting for a challenger, I'm going to let you all vote for the next logline.  Choose one of the four.

already have- but what if

the two gamblers are the comedianne and the tax collector; the castle is the luxury hotel and the magic lamp gets them drunk?

Yeah, I agree, combine them:

A narcissistic comedienne, a pair of gamblers and a tax collector get completely trashed and find a magic lamp in a luxury resort castle.

Four major characters, two major plotpoints, five pages, two days. Go!


Guess who's back? Back again?

I'm not going to combine them.  I'll use one or the other.  The tie will either be broken or I'll decide which one is used.

Obviously don't ACTUALLY combine them. Unless you combine all of them:

A narcissistic comedienne, a pair of gamblers, an indecisive sorceress, a protester and a tax collector get completely trashed and find a magic lamp in a luxury castle resort, before being eyewitnesses to the murder of a gangster in a forest by a werewolf.

At least eight major characters, three major plotpoints, two distinct locations, five pages, two days. Go!

What day do you ususally announce the logline and give the green light?

Wednesday (Thursday for Libby).   Though if no one else votes then you already know what it is.

I voted, but I don't like this as much. I like to see a logline blindside the writers 48hrs prior. This way they don't have five days to start thinking about story. Pressure cooker. This is getting close to an OWC now.

What?  You don't think they're wondering if anyone else will vote and there will be another tie.  It's not set in stone yet.  

We will probably take a break after this one for the OWC.

I agree. But, for me, the main problem is that the logline doesn't have enough elements.

Did I say elements? I meant elephants.

A narcissistic comedienne, a pair of gamblers, an indecisive sorceress, a protester and a tax collector get completely trashed and find a magic lamp in a luxury castle resort, before being eyewitnesses to the murder of a gangster in a forest by a werewolf. All while riding sarcastic talking elephants.

I. SHOULD. BE. REVISING. Christ, I'm stalling so hard I'm starting to sound like Rendevous...

We still need a tie breaker folks.  Next vote could decide it.
