I have nothing... and neither of my spares from round 1 fit so I can't even upcycle ;-( Consulted my ideas database, out of 600 I have one that might kinda-sorta-maybe fit if I squint... may have to do if the muse doesn't strike in the next 24 hours!
600!!! Wow, Anthony that's impressive. I maybe have 2 or 3 floating around my head at any time but nothing written down anywhere.

I’m in the same boat,
once I was able to use characters I was working on for something else, and even then the story to fit the parameters was made up whole cloth.

Okay - I am in and submitted. I had this great idea about a laser beam coming out of a cell phone at sea. People are going to love it. I'm totally sure.

Sounds like a hit to me

Sometimes you just need to write what's in your head. That's my excuse for this round.

Warren, I just scribble down stuff, so some are just snippets... some are more formed. Recently being watching a series called Europe from Above and the US equivalent, a ton of ideas have been sparked from there... Hasn't helped this time but I've started writing something!

I thought I made up the sets so they weren't
too whacky.
It's not like it's a Place of Worship and Dice.
600 ideas, Ant?
Your head must be exploding..
Made me think. I need me a Data Base.
Anyway, heaps of time left.
Marnie, you can scribble one up on your break.

I have a google docs called The Well of Ideas where all my possible ideas goes. It's 22 pages of stuff, sometimes just a line or even just a title, some with a bit of detail attached, and some fleshed out a little more as the start of something. Mostly garbage, but whenever I need something new to write I start there and see what excites me.
I have another document that's just loglines for title prompts. That has some real gems in it too, and already over 6 pages. All together, probably around 300 ideas. Still a ways to go to 600, that's a lot.

I'm writing mine in 4D so it spits ashes/water at you as you are reading the script.

Hey I had my whacky Place of Worship and dice script produced from that QC
And Gary had his jump rope, old age home one produced from the same QC.
I thought you're combos were pretty good, and open until I tried to formulate an idea. I found the round really challenging.
