Fuck it, I'm out.

I really wanted to enter this (the fact that this is the first OWC which I have even began to write an entry is testament to that), but I have come undone by being over ambitious with the story that I was writing.

I'm currently at 19 pages and still haven't even reached the ending yet.

If the script wasn't so complex, I could potentially cut something out. But if I cut out the 5-10 pages needed to get this down to the 15 pages, people would be left seriously scratching their heads (more than they would be doing when the script is at it's full length, haha).

Looking forward to reading the other entries though

So that's, what, four people in so far? Didn't think it would trip so many people up - probably the lack of boundaries. Here's hoping on some late entries.

One by one they fall...

Maybe Dustin will write a 2nd or 3rd entry in the next 4 hours, knowing what a stellar writer he is.

One entry per person, no pissers, and mine'll be bounced back at me (as is usual ) for not meeting the entry requirements. Soon there'll be none. Unless Dustin really does enter. Up for OWC Dustin?

Just submitted mine. Best of luck to everyone who entered. Hopefully this time around the peeps who wrote a script will participate and review everyone of them. I'm tired of seeing 30 people enter and several scripts get only 15 - 20 reviews.

I'm with you on that, Dirk.

I won't be entering this time, but I will be reading.

Best of luck to all and congrats to all who enter, as it is a tough challenge, but also a great challenge.  I'm so bummed I didn't jump on this earlier, but Dustin is very happy, and that's what really counts.

I'm sorry to say that I did not enter. I LOVE the OWC, but time just wasn't there for me this time. Will try to read a few though.  Good luck to those who enter.

Bummer, another casualty here. I won't meet the deadline on this. Time travel's mind bending trip did a number on me. I might try to finish it and post it later.

Good luck to everyone who has entered, you did good getting them done and in.

I'll be reading.

Something smells like horse shit...

Dena, my bet is that you and Kev wrote 2 to 3 scripts each and 1 to 2 combined.  


I honestly don't know if Kev wrote a script at all for the owc...if he did, I don't know about it, and no horse shit ....Dena is out on this one.

You guys went absolutely insane while I was at work. Probably for the best anyway, as most discussion is good discussion. =)

I'm several hours late, but seriously Dustin, cut that shit out. I don't want anything personal going on, not in this contest. Jeff, you know better than to go back and forth with people.

Toby, don't feel restricted by page length. It's not engraved in stone. But, usually the page count does not include the title page.

Congratulations to all who entered or will enter. Those who didn't, totally understandable but I appreciate the interest as it gives me hope for the future.

Still two and a half hours to go... =)

Fantastic. Was writing from work and saving onto Dropbox. Just got home to finish and Dropbox is now down. I am likely out...

I finished mine.  Then changed it.  Then felt unconfident in my idea.  Not in love with my story either.  This was the first OWC I attempted to enter.  Not being able to reached my laptop today also drew me out of this off the bat.  I might post it up sometime later as a short, though.  Only... Time... will tell.

Sorry for the cheese.

Anyways, looking forward to the entries.  Shall be reading them all.

You can't send the pdf to Don to enter? After you write in all the info, can't you just enter it here: UPLOAD or are you having trouble entering it that way as well?

I don't have access to any of my files until dropbox comes back online and I was a few scenes from being done.
