Congrats, Warren. You're the one to beat so far.

And look at who decided to crash the party in second! Way to make an entrance, Libby!

Rick is still going strong, another one to beat.

Now I'm dying to know who wrote the round 3 scripts...

Wow.  Wasn't expecting that.
Thanks, Stevie
And thanks, Rene.
Honestly, bit of a surprise, but I'm thrilled.

And congrats, Warren and Rick. Two of my all time favs.
I really liked Rats too (Gary).

Congrats to Warren and a very good script.  The others that placed in the top 8, far from good, and shocking where you placed.

Special SHOUT OUT to Henb, for a very hilarious pissfest.  I just hope it was intended to be a pisser, but no reason in the world that script comes in at the bottom.  Top 5 for sure, based on what it was up against.

I smell a few rats, and I'm almost completely positive about that.  You rats know who you are, and I have a sneaky suspicion you rats will somehow keep coming up "roses".

Finally, "END OF RANT", but yeah, as Warren has said for months, do not listen to my feedback, as it obviously is way off the mark, based on what you peeps like.  I'm literally shocked and appalled at every top 5 other than my good friend Warren's.

Word out...

Jeff, you wrote an unfunny story about a meal.

It's where it should be. Well away from the forum heavyweights.

If you need any advice on how to write, don't hesitate to ask us. We're always happy to help our inferiors.

Thanks, Rick, I appreciate the feedback and offer.

And I do also appreciate the humor...the forum heavyweights.  Yeah.  Other than Warren's, their ain't no heavyweights showing up in the upper echelon.

And as I'll say again, if you peeps really think those scripts are solid entries, more power to the peeps!  Unreal...literally unreal.

RATS!!!  They're everywhere...again!  ARGH!!!

Mine was exceptional, but it was only for clever people

That's the price you pay for genius, you leave the mundane behind.

Thanks Jeff, I almost felt a scintilla of (what will be short-lived ) joy ebb away, but then nope... it didn't work!  

Hey, if it's any consolation my third round effort is not faring so well.

hmm, Richard, you gave 7 comments on your own scripts so far.

You're not the only one who acts like that though. Clearly.

I guess some are even deleting their traces afterwards, so good that you at least don't do so .  

Somehow I hope this general problem can be fixed one time but there seems to be no true will or concept yet. Then there are a few people, more taken back and passive screenwriters, who wouldn't ever act like that who I think, also see those interactions with the 'own'-readers as a problem. Well, just the ugliest side of these challenges, leading to a kind of vicarious embarrassment.

I get involved in discussions on numerous threads. That's my favourite part.

But anyway, Alex... Noted. I didn't know that was a 'thing'. So I won't respond to anything from now on.

They're in almost every OWC. Certain writers here communicate through FB and Skype meetings. You can tell from certain reviews.

I have to say though, that I don't think Libby is one of them. I'm just saying that because of 'roses' being placed in inverted commas looks like a nod toward Libby.

It's clearly only a thing to Alex.

If anyone else is bothered then we should all stop responding and just allow conversation to die.

Well done Warren - you absolutely smashed it - Rats of a Feather topped my list.
Also well done to LC, Scar, PK, Rene - Nicely done guys. Actually, well done to everyone - some seriously talented writers around here.

Philostrate - as you can tell from my review, I bloody loved yours as well lol

Too much negativity in this tournament now though, accusations being thrown around at everyone, bitchin' that writers are not in the right "place" in the standings. No wonder so few newbies join in, who from the outside would see that and think "yeah i want a piece of that"?
It's not fun anymore so round 3 is the last one for me.

Thanks Don and Mr Blonde for putting this on - Really gave me a chance to stretch my creative legs and try some new stuff

Good luck to you all - from the sounds of it, the next couple of rounds are going to be tough.

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