There were a lot of good scripts.

Like Reef, I can't say any blew my mind, but then it's a tall order in a week, let alone when you have to squeeze some criteria in as well. The weaknesses of a lot of scripts were due to trying to conform their stories to the limitations. Mine included. All part of the challenge, of course.


I didn't read them all, so I won't be voting. I know you can vote on what you've read, but I prefer to have read them all.

Of the ones I read, A.M.A was the most fully realised.

Not sure I'm voting yet unless my webmail gets its act together. I take it the voting form is out?

Anyway,  just want to say I found the  'trapped in a Taxi' scripts were very varied and well done overall. Good on everyone for delivering some solid ideas.

Sorry guys,  I'm really slow on doing this.  I just moved and it has been brutal.  I am reading what I can and doing my best...

Does anyone know when voting is over by?  I will do my best to read them all and send it in...

I haven't even looked at the comments on mine.  I have a feeling that peeps didn't like it, so, that's sucks...

I had a different interpretation of "trapped in a taxi" then some did.  I had asked about that, but, I think I should have gone with a more literal definition of it.  

If I don't get them all read, I will merely vote for what I've read.  I know I'm near 20 of the 30, so, it's not like I only read 2 or 3.  I hope you guys forgive me.

Moving sucks.  Moving when your disabled sucks even worse, if that's possible...

Dan


Please read my scripts:

I'm interested in reading animation, horror, sci fy, suspense, fantasy, and anything that is good.  I enjoy writing the same.  Looking to team with anyone!

Thanks
Dan

I think I've reviewed them all now. Overall a very varied and interesting bunch of scripts. I really enjoyed reading them. Well done to all who entered and I hope the comments help you develop and grow as a writer.

Think I've finished now, some interesting twists on the theme and a good variety of scripts overall.

Any idea what you're supposed to do when it comes to voting and your script is on the list?? I'm assuming it's poor etiquette to give yourself a recommend! Not that it would help my effort this time round, a good few in there absolutely smoked mine

You don't have to mark any script if you don't want to, you can just leave them - so you can simply skip your own. I wonder if anyone will actually vote for their own?

I was interested to see that this is a different way of marking them this time - when I was last a regular here I think we picked our three favourites rather than marking every script.

I have read all of the scripts though not yet commented on all - I am having severe internet issues at the moment and am lucky if I can stay online for more than a few minutes at a time. But hope to post a few more comments yet, for what it's worth.

The option 'did not read' is what I select for my own script. It's very tempting to vote for my own but the damage to my integrity just isn't worth it. I do wonder how many other writers are able to resist the urge.

I'm pretty sure the voting is set up so votes for your own scripts are void.

Three recommends from me. Tons of great work this OWC, both the writing and the reviewing.

I just leave my script blank - don't indicate anything. You shouldn't vote on your own IMO
