I did enter mine, receiving mixed reviews thus far and my writing style is different (a lot different).

This challenge was a great test and allowed me to try something new (in both writing and story).  Even if the script in question is rather linear in terms of what it is.

Thanks for the OWC, Jeff!  

When we are allowed, I will reveal what I wrote, which may surprise some people as it looks vastly different from my usual stuff.

Good job, everyone!

I'm making my way through the entries.  My sincere apologies to those scripts that I did not finish.  I don't mean to be harsh or hurtful with my comments.

I realize this was a tough challenge in ways, but also very simple in other ways.  My main concern or complaint would be that many writers tried to do way too much for what I hoped would be a simple story with good characterization and an R rating.

They weren't supposed to be allowed.  I'm surprised Don let Mark's script slip through the cracks.

Finished now!

I really, really enjoyed these, y'all. Some kickass work here, plus lots of great violence of all tones -- and wonderful to see so much horrible violence visited on children

Props to y'all 'n' props to Jeff.

I have no idea who wrote any of them.

It should probably be moved to the spoof thread so people stop reading it. I also couldn't help myself to look at the name, but it makes me think he was framed.

Exactly the same here, I'm a little surprised actually...

Good job, guys. I think that was all! Thanks Jeff for organizing. I honestly thought we'd get more entries.

Now there only remains one question. Who the fuck wrote Bee Boy? That script will honestly drive me insane... Even just saying it - Bee Boy, just wow.

Right, well I've read and commented on every entry minus the 'spoof' entries. I did start to read one of them, but it just seemed like the same ol' cast of SS stuff, sorry.

Thanks to Jeff. This was a pretty good challenge. I liked the relative freedom of this one and particularly that you included the Pacific North West theme. It added another dimension to the whole thing in terms of visuals and feel.

I hope my recent silence has not been misinterpreted as disinterest.

I have been vacationing, and pretty much away from the computer by design.

As such, I do not have an entry, but do plan on reading over the coming week.

Looks like a good batch, and glancing over the titles, I already know which one I need to read first...  

As usual, if you spot some trouble brewing in any of these threads, please alert a mod, as these OWC threads are usually too active to monitor all of them.


Hey, it's my tiny, little IMDb!

Everyone's being remarkably well behaved but I suspect this has a lot to do with the fact Jeff's got his Modhat on.

What you talkin' 'bout, Willis?  

Yeah, the natives have been very well behaved.

I too though we'd have a bigger turnout, but you never know with these OWC's.  Hell, I didn't even enter!

I'll finish my reading today and tomorrow.  I was kind of busy over the weekend.

Story to take place in July 2013.

I have only read two scripts so far. Neither followed this requirement.
