I've forwarded the ballot to Dan to send out. In additional to writers, he may include those non-participants who have been reading and commenting.
Writers who chose not to be anonymous have not been included in the ballot.
Tradition holds that one does not vote for ones self
We are just going for Writer's Choice.
As for the "non-reviewers" Please note, some folks wait until after the event to post comments and he/she believes comments unduly influence voters.
As for those who weren't clear on parameters, please let me know how I can make them clearer on the submission form at simplyscripts.com/owc
I agree this has dragged on a long time. The Two Weeks was an anomaly, but we committed to the concept and once committed we thought we should allow enough time to do it right. The next OWC will be an One Week Challenge.
It says "voting ballots due" and now it's in five days. Does that mean we have to turn them in by the end of the ticking clock? Because I haven't received the ballot yet.
Voted. Only two scripts rose to four star level (out of 5 stars), and three more getting 3 stars or 3 1/2. I looked mostly for cohesiveness, characterization and story, regardless of whether I was familiar with the source material or not. Fun challenge, and thankful for the extra time. Thanks Don and Dan!
Let's just hope that the winners actually gave some reviews. I'll be grabbing a pitchfork and a torch if they hadn't.
Hahahaha, they may have to hide under that rock that Hawkeye and co are currently occupying, if that's the case of course...
Good challenge, regardless of the timescale and apparent lack of reviews. They were generally long scripts so I do understand that it'll have been tricky due to real world issues for everyone to go round all the houses, still there's a couple of days left so fingers crossed a few more reviewers pile in.
A couple of excellent, a couple of very good, shall be interested to see what comes out on top.
Ta Don (as usual) and Dan for the effort in putting this beast together,
Excellent = 9 Very Good = 3 Good = 2 Fair = 1 Poor = 4 Didn't read/DQ = 1 (I couldn't bear to read Quantam [sic] Leap. Any producer would have thrown out the script just for that misspelling alone. Apologies to the writer.)
Very impressive pool this month. All that extended time was worth it. Good luck to everybody.
