Congratulations Sean and Max! Thank you Don for this awesome and fun challenge. Definitely had me thinking outside of the box. And a big thank you to all of those who didn't enter a script but still read and voted anyways. You are the lifeblood of SS. |

Aw, man, hell of a race there, Max. But, you couldn't have let me have that one-hundredth of a point? Lol. Big congrats to Max, Kevin and Steven for making the podium, to everyone who entered and to Don for hosting another great one. =) |

Wow! Good going, Blondie & Max! You guys had a mug bestowed before? I think Max did well last OWC, if memory serves?
Steven Clark, a fine piece of writing with Even Smiles. |

Technically, you're tied for 3rd prize. 3rd prize is you're fired. Lol. =) |

Ha! That's mental, no way Moving On should have scored as well as it did. Most likely a mix up with the scoring and if I was a better person I'd ask for a recount. But I'm not a better person so I'll humbly accept the outcome and suggest we all just move on.
Thanks for the very generous scoring (if it really wasn't a mistake), and well done Sean. Sunshine was the only one I gave full marks to. Beautiful script.
And thanks to everyone who took part, especially those who only read the scripts as that's the kind of selflessness that makes SS so special.
And thanks to Don for all the effort that you put into this (as well as the idea for the challenge). Love these challenges as they're such a great way of actually getting something done. |

Sorry, meant to reply to this yesterday. But nope, pretty sure I've consistently scored below average. |

They give out Oscars like they’re sweets... SS mugs are far more exclusive and prestigious |

I thought your exuberant reaction was great! There's nothing quite like getting the much coveted mug. |

I guess that makes the Mug I was gifted (four years back) a Lifetime Achievement Award. In 11 years, this was my first (co-) win. |

Is this going to be some joint custody of the mug type thing? I mean I'm cool with just having it at the weekends if you want? |

You can keep it, so long as I don't have to pay alimony. |
