Didn't mean to sound impatient, just keen to get going

Might start reading but not comment until I know what I'm judging on.

I counted, it's supposed to be 32 entries, but there's not.

I assume at some point the actual criteria for each bracket will be given? Otherwise how will we know if they've stayed on brief other than the 5 page limit...

Not everyone may have got a script together in time, it was bound to happen.

Well, it's as many as 3 entries are missing. I didn't expect this many.
I'm guessing the writers want to read their competition, otherwise there's no game, so I feel for those who submitted but didn't get to go against anyone.

This is very important.

No point in having an excellent serial killer script when the brief was happiness & sunshine.

I can read and store them in my memory, then recall what it's about and my reaction to them. I may go over a few.

Reading but not commenting right now.

My notifications from SS go to junk folder for some reason by the way. They always were in my good folder. Anyway, I had all four notifiers. Now I'm feeling such a remorse for sending my entry 4 times! 2 am - I couldn't think straight, that's when my obsessive-compulsive wakes up.

Yeah, seeing the criteria for each entry would be nice. Makes the judging a little more consistent.

That's why I'm giving a score for each script. Highest score wins.

But what if it doesn't meet the criteria considering we aren't 100% sure what it is?

I'm leaving that up to the tournament organisers. If the script is in, it meets the criteria.

That's a lame way to look at it. But whatever.

I'm guessing the voting bracket threads will have the parameters.

Why is it a lame way to look at it, but whatever?

The organisers set the criteria if the script meets the criteria then it's in. Just like in a nightclub with a door policy. The bouncers don't wait until people get inside and wait to hear everyone else's opinion on what is allowed.

See how I explain why your logic is nonsensical, I don't just call it lame, but whatever?

The thing at the top of the page says Read Now.

I'd rather have the entries paired up, along with the parameters, so I can fix in my mind which of the two I like better as I read.

But -- you can't always get what you want.
