Quoted from DustinBowcot
That scoring system sounds like a great idea... I just don't know how the F1 ranking system works regarding the score differentiation. Scoring from 15 down to 1 (if 15 entries) would look like a mountain to climb if coming in last. Coming last twice would see your script on 2 and the top script potentially on 30.


Maybe Eurovision would have been a better example.... but most people here won't know what that is.

Yeah it would be a mountain to climb, but if they have consistently been ranked towards the bottom across all reviewers over two rounds, and another writer consistently ranked towards the top - isn't that the way it should be?
I would hope it would motivate the writer at the bottom to try harder in the following rounds rather than just give up... but that's up to the type of person they are, can't control that.

Two steps to writing a good screenplay:
1) Write a bad one
2) Fix it

Did you get it Stevie?
The voting ballots were PMd by Don - I wondered if that was for a reason.
Probably not, but just to be sure, Matt or anyone else can PM you the link.

Or I can.
Lemme know.

* PM'd you so that Matt doesn't have to do it twice.

I'm not sure Eurovision is a great example... England got points deducted retrospectively this year

That's a good scoring idea. I marked one entry yesterday as all fours. And just read an entry that I wanted to give all fives but remembered that the other one was no worse. So in a way Im trying to see how they measure in relation to each other. I always do. So scoring your way would just simplify that task.
Actually we could all score that way with Seans scoring system if we wanted to.
