No that's not actually correct. For criteria we don't have a 1 to 5 scoring option. We have a Y/N option. Yes being 5 points, no being 1.
The criteria of this challenge is no more than 5 pages, bobblehead, fusion, psychiatrist office. This is 6 pages, the criteria is not met. If I had the option of a 1 to 5 system then yes I would have given him a 3 or a 4. That isn't how Sean has set it up.
It's not harsh, it's just the way it is. I'm sure Rene would agree.
Sorry Rene, my review was a bit harsh and unhelpful. Me not understanding the story was not your fault, it was just me not understanding.... I'm still trying to get the hang of reviewing
No apologies necessary. It's all valuable, even for the glimpse into how people receive it. It's largely my fault anyway, I didn't do the story justice and I know it. It was the best I could do in a time crunch, and it was messy. I'm not surprised some people didn't get it.
Well, now I know. Sorry if my words came out harsh, Rene, it wasn't my intention. I was a little pissed because I liked the script but couldn't give it the score it deserved. I hope you accept my apologies. You always try to provide detailed and insightful feedback and you don't deserve less than that in return.
Oooh. The nightmare scenario. Now that I understand what happened... I feel I was harsh. Could happen to anyone. Ugh.
I'll keep that in mind if something like this comes up in the future. Still have to DQ in the future... but, I should keep the judgement down. I was just so disappointed.

Going over the limit didn't impact my review at all. I'm not eager to DQ scripts. I'm eager to have a story that I can get through without being tempted to start my grocery list. I scored this one pretty high.
And again, here is the problem. We have an entry that clearly failed the criteria component, adn yet Kevin is giving it a 5, while giving others a 1.
