Promise I've read them all, just didn't have time - once again- to get back and give comments. I'll do the comments now and also promise that none of the comments are based on who wrote what - honest first opinions.
Awesome guys! I can honestly say that (leaving mine out of it completely), my top three all hit the big time! (Except for Mr. Time, which I do feel deserved a nod too...)
Cheers folks, and well done to all those who entered, and an extra well done to those who bothered to read and reviewed. Seemed a little better this time.
And no waste of time pissers, indeed a couple of decent comedy entries. Well done mark and Steve.
Thanks Don and Sean for this.
Well done Simon. But...did you read any? I hope you did.
As usual some great ideas in there, all of which need some work - what do you expect in such a short time?

Congratulations to Simon, Bill, Mark, Janet, Adam, Dirk, Eric and Lee and all who entered! I'm glad the ones I voted for were in the top three writer's choices.
I had an absolute blast taking part in this and reading all the wonderful entries.
Also thanks to all the great feedback, it's been invaluable and I've been working on a second draft which I'll get uploaded soon. Your points have helped immensly.

Congrats, everyone! I really enjoyed the parameters set in this challenge as it produced some solid entries. Sorry that I didn't get time to either: A) read all the entries, or; B) enter. I will definitely clear my schedule to do both next time!
And good job to everyone who entered! I thought the quality was pretty good across the board and I had a hard time coming up with clear favorites.
Hopefully the authors feel free to post on their own stories. I'd love to hear more about what was going on in these twisty, loopy worlds we came up with.
Congrats to everyone who pulled ahead for Writer's choice. I downloaded them and read em' all, but feel bad I didn't have time to give a review for each, seeing how I received so many reviews from everyone else. I'm just getting into the swing of this give and take concept, so if I missed any one, my apologies.
My biggest issue in this challenge wasn't writing the script, it was actually choosing the best three, cause let's face it, there are some seriously talented writers on this board. Within time, I hope to catch up.
Congrats to a Simon and Bill. Great job guys. Also to Mark and Janet. Well deserved. When thinking about it, this really was a tough challenge. Time travel has been done to death, so it was really a chore to come up with something fresh and original here.
Congrats to all the winners. Excellent story telling. And good going to all who took the plunge and jumped into the time machine. A fun challenge and a great way to start the new year.
