It does appear that Jagged is winding down. We don't want to run this into the ground, so let the discussions begin over what to do next. Somewhere back on this thread, there was a discussion of doing something by Mcornetto, by Pia, and a script called "Demon Beach". We'll figure out a good time frame to do the next one and all with the Shiva game coming up.

Personally, I'm game for any time, but for now, we can brainstorm a future script to read. Once we have the script and time frame nailed down, we'll follow the same basic format as before...a week to read and a week (or however long or short it takes) to discuss it. I know I appreciated the comments and Jagged will be that much better as a result, so I'm eager to share the wealth.

Good idea I think to wait until the Shiva game is over.

Any script is fine with me as long as it is by an SS member who participates on these boards and maybe even shows interest by participating in the Script Club itself.

Demon Beach sounds good to me and I know he's an excellent writer too and takes suggestions and critique well.

If you want (after Demon Beach) I have one I'm planning to film myself that I could use some input on as well. It is however a feature version of Daddy's Home so I don't know how many people would want to re-read that one...  I can take harsh reviews fairly well by know though. I've been trained by Phil...  

Anyway, thanks George for taking over and you can count on me taking part.

I'm interested as always.  I'd actually recommend doing one sooner than later, as Shiva isn't even getting under way for over a week.

I'm cool with whatever though.  I actually read "Demon Beach" awhile back. It's really whacky and should provide some great interaction in here.  It's one of those scripts that some will love, and others will most likely hate...which obviously provides good discussion possibilities.

I hope Cornetto has made some changes, which I bet he has.  I actualy laugh out loud quite often when I think of certain scenes in this script, as it's very funny at times.  Interesting to see what everyone else has to say.

Demon Beach will be ready very soon.  I did make some changes, cleaned up the writing, clarified my meanings,  and hopefully didn't cut out anything you laughed at loud about.  So if you all want to do that for the next script club then I should be posting the revision within a week or so.

I don't have any problem with it happening alongside Shiva.  I don't think the game is really that time consuming for anyone playing.  It's a bit time consuming for me - but  if you do Demon Beach then I don't have to read the script.

But whatever is decided then I'm up for it.

Capt. Cornie...the dancing...I love the incessant dancing of whatever that guy's name is!  His comments are classic to the other "dancers"!!  Seriously, for some wierd reason, I just can't get it out of my mind.  It's my kind of humor for sure.  At least once every week, it comes into my mind and I laugh out loud, sometimes in the strangest places.  People probably think I'm nuts...oh yeah, I guess I am nuts!

Looking forward to the revisions brother!!!!

Actually, my understanding of the game is that while it requires the participants to "keep up", the writing side isn't that involved. I know Mcornetto's part as the moderator of the game is more involved since he isn't just watching the game....he's controlling it. So doing one of his scripts at a time he can't really pay attention's not too bad an idea.

As for the simultanoeous run for those who are wanting to do both... Script Club takes a whole different part of the brain, though. Gotta be more analytical than creative.

So past Demon Beach (to be fair) does anyone else have any other suggestions they've been pondering?

Well... I would like to have some serious intelligent input on that one feature I'm planning on producing...

After Demon Beach if possible.

As you've hosted your fair share, I doubt anyone would dispute that you'd have a turn coming...

I'm here and ready to learn from whatever comes next. I feel an affinity with the people here; so that's actually a very great gift that I appreciate.

I hope that I can continue and contribute to this great dream of ours and maybe with some luck, we'll  join together-- build something that people can discuss and meditate over for many years to come.

FYI, Michael has posted his most recent revision of Demon Beach here.

What we've got coming up on the board is the Shiva game commencing next week (December 1st), and I know some of us are participating in that. So the question is, is the 8th still too hectic for a discussion over Demon Beach, or do we need to wait a little longer? Thoughts?

I don't have time to participate in the writing game, but I have time to read whenever you want me to. You probably need more people than me though...

I read the script last night and won't be participating in the Shiva game, so I'm good to go at any time.

I'm not into the game so I'll just read Demon Beach.  

Of course I don't think I'm any good at this script club stuff but I'll post my thoughts anyway lol.

There's no such thing as not being good at this. Everyone's thoughts are valuable from the incredibly critical (looking for Dreamscale, there) to the very easygoing. They're all valuable since everyone typically has an opinion about stories of every kind. So don't think you're no good at it, since the very act of reading and commenting says you have something to contribute.

And so far, we have good to go at any time. I'm honestly fine at any time and I am participating in the game. Unless we do get a consensus otherwise, how about we set the read time frame for next week (since the game, as I recall, is a scene at a time, and is posted at a rate of once a day, so it shouldn't be too overwhelming for everyone except our victim) and the critique and discussion for the week after (the week of the 8th)? It does overlap, so if it will cause an issue for those running both, someone will have to let me know.
