I don't look to see who has/hasn't commented on a script to work out the writer... feels a boring way to guess and time-consuming.

You do have a tell but the tell isn't enough as other writers have the same one, so guessing yours is a combination of if the "tell" is present and the story itself.

Anthony's is strange, I can't put my finger on what it is but as soon as I read it I'm like "Yup, Anthony wrote this"

Warren and Dave are annoyingly hard to guess sometimes.

Some other regulars I haven't sussed what the tell is yet, but I will lol

Two steps to writing a good screenplay:
1) Write a bad one
2) Fix it

Every time I do a challenge, I feel like mine's obvious and should be an easy guess.

I usually have good luck guessing Zack's and Paul's entries. Zack's entry this round seemed out of his normal comfort zone but, after the reveal, has many tells.

I have several tells. Though, I try and write around them.

Also, I notice certain phrases that I'm obviously comfortable with. I've even caught myself repeating jokes, only adjusted for character/story.

I don't really vary my writing style particularly, but have found (like with this one), that if I move to a genre I rarely write in then it helps disguise it.

I have tried altering fonts, format and even switched to Trelby once... but that doesn't seem to stop Matthew and usually Libby too from spotting mine.

I'm doing it in Word next time.
