I remember doing these types of informal showdowns a few years back.

Is there a deadline for being in? Okay, I see it's the 15th.

I need to know details as to how this is going to work before committing. I don't understand how two writers can compete against each other anonymously.

Unless all scripts are entered at once and then sorted into random pairs.

Else there could be some bias in determining which writer versus who, and with that comes a skewing of results depending on personal preference.

Sure. I'll clarify a bit more. When I know who's in, you'll be randomly paired off (that's where the brackets come in). By PM, you will both receive your topics. You'll write your scripts then submit them, as you would do with an OWC. Then, like an OWC, the scripts will be made available, except there will be two scripts on that page instead of just one. People will have your script and logline, but no name. They will vote on the one they like the best. Highest score moves on.

Those were a lot of fun. I remember going against Ryan Lee. That was a disaster, for me I mean)

I'm in, Sean.

Sounds fun.

If there's a voting aspect to it, shouldn't the scripts be submitted without names, at least? Just saying, we all like some people better than others.

Could you sign me up as a maybe still? When could I start writing?

Well, my name's on there so I can't bail now. Richard Sharpe would never refuse a duel.


That rug really tied the room together.
