What do the stars mean? I got it for general threads but why does one submitted script have stars?

Do you mean asterisks? * <--that character?


That means that someone has entered an OWC before and read entries.  There's more hang on while I look for Don's announcement.


Quoted from Don

The “*” in the title of the OWC script indicates that the person who submitted the script has, in the past, read and reviewed at least three scripts in this or previous challenges. If you feel you should have a star, please let me know via email at webmaster (a) simplyscripts.com or discussion board private message. Click the title to go to the discussion board thread, then click the title to read the script.

Michael I might be wrong but isn't Michel referring, not to the asterisk but to the actual Stars (number of votes for the thread).

I wondered about this too. If it is what I'm thinking, and this is a vote, I'll not be adding my vote until all the entries have been submitted. Make sense?   And I mean that in the nicest possible way btw.

Don may have left the voting on.  However, I'm not sure if he wants you to vote or not.


Yup. Voting is on and some people voted for The love that dares...  and that's why Michel was seeing stars.   Sorry for the misunderstanding.

I'm not sure if Don intends you to vote or not - we have tried that before and it never works out that well - however, perhaps Don has a plan.  In which case you will need to ask him once he is awake.

I'm about to head off to bed.   So see you guys in the morning.

I do. I didn't know the (big) stars refer to votes. Thanks.

We usually try to keep it anonymous for one week.

The list of scripts are here in case someone hasn't noticed yet.  http://www.simplyscripts.net/cgi-bin/Blah/Blah.pl?b-OWC0809/

Even if we can guess who wrote what we don't mention any names for the first week.

Oof, well blame it on the newbie... been throwing out names on every script i've read. Thought that was the guessing game. i will refrain from doing so. All it takes is one arse to ruin all the fun, guess I need to learn my place.

Was just wondering if there was a list of those who submitted, not attached to their scripts...

Don, are there any more scripts for the OWC?
10 SEEMS A VERY SMALL AMOUNT!

Isn't 10 how many you guessed there would be?

There's more.  Don's just releasing them as he thinks appropriate.

I'll post a list of the writers a few days after all the scripts have been uploaded to the discussion board.  It will probably be under the heading of "Guess who wrote what" .

As for the number of scripts.  There were 45 submissions, of which around 40 met the criteria.

Good amount of scripts for the OWC.
Do you actually read them all before uploading?

That is impressive.

In that case, your "asterisk" method of designating the scripts is an excellent idea, Don.

I hope that all contributing members understand what those asterisks mean -- and will ask if they are not clear.


Hey, it's my tiny, little IMDb!

I hope a few more scripts are uploaded today.
I don't know everyone else's schedule, but after working 12 to 13 hours a day it really is difficult to review with a fresh mind.
The weekend is great for reviewing and I am sure I speak for some of us
