Over the next few days SimplyScripts will be transitioning to SimplyJAVAScripts!  

Yes, I'm taking a page from Mark Renshaw's brilliant FB group Screenwriters Writing Novels and announcing a new direction for SimplyScripts that will bring in a lot of new folks.

Not only do both screenplays and the programming language have the word "script" in it, both disciplines also require attention to grammar, spelling and formatting.  So, many of the review styles will remain the same, e.g., "This simply will not work,"  "Too many spelling errors," "Your formatting is off..."  The transition to SimplyJAVAScripts should be pretty seamless.

I see endless possibilities in this new direction the site is taking.  The discussion board will be turned over to reviews and critiques of JavaScript code.  JavaScript writers will be able to submit his/her work in a number of JavaScript genres like, "Great for Denial of Service Attacks" or "Great for Defending against Denial of Service Attacks".  

I hope you all embrace this new direction with the same enthusiasm!  I encourage each and every one of you to get on board.

How exciting. I can't wait for the next OWC. (I'm assuming you'll still do those.)

"For this challenge, you'll need to write a program that includes a totem pole and a blind man. No longer than 300 lines of code. Genre: game, utility, or productivity. You have one week. Run."

I love it! What could possibly go wro...unexpected exception occurred.

I love a good bit of Javascript, can't wait for this 'transition'

Happy April Fool's Day.

I wonder how different the board will look. Nevermind, dumb thought.

Fair warning. I get sick at sea, but we'll be aboard SimplyJAVAScripts Maiden voyage. Hopefully I don't fall off. This poor boy can't swim.

Hahah. Well played.

I'm in.

So, this was a joke, right?
