Quoted from khamanna
I wouldn't mind submitting my scores the way we normally do. I have them down. I imagine most of us could probably recollect their scores for the scripts.


I don't have mine written down, but I'd be happy to revote.

Doing the math for this type of calculation is simple. All that's needed are numbers to work off of. =)

We can do that.  We also know that it isn't a direct reproduction of the original votes as folks have started to out themselves, folks will change their minds, we may have folks who didn't vote before vote now and folks who voted who don't vote again.

I'd be happy to revote if needed... could also return to head to head format, assign pairs and vote on the trio of scripts each has.

It would be very hard to vote for trios if you ask me. I'd just throw a dice most of the time.

My guess is all 7 go to the next round and only 2 may survive it! That would be some challenge.

I had 4 spare entries from last round... I think I could shoe-horn some Bollywood in there

I think this is the best option. But only if we can all call ourselves Semi-finalists in the next round

I'd prefer to be called the Midwest Regional Semi-Champion, Co-Divisional Finalist Eastern Wing Leader.

But, that's just me.

How about survey monkey? We’ll have to revote again but rereading one page won’t take long for us to remember what we gave last time.  I say reread, it’ll be more like a quick scan.

And those from Austrailia are automatically out because they are sleeping and don't know the news. You snooze you lose, haha!
