I really liked your script, don’t know how that happened. I was actually in shock to see the result but what do I know.

That’s very kind of you to say Kham, thank you

Everyone before the scripts post: My script sucks. I will pre-emptively commit seppuku in shame.

Everyone after the scripts post: These are all excellent work. Well done.

Everyone after the scores are released: This is exactly opposite of the way I ranked them! What happened?

Yeah Geezis I second Kahn’s post.  Yours had some great lines. I actually marked it as my second favourite one

Thank you Stevie, some basic mistakes probably had folk marking me down but it’s an opportunity to improve

Well I hope ppl are submitting to the round 2. There’s not a whole lot of “submitted!” announcements which makes me worried.

I expect to dinged for misunderstanding the theme, the object being shoehorned in, the character not having enough screen time, the location not being important enough, and not really fitting the genre.

My only hope of placing well is having virtually no one else enter.

Please don’t let that happen. Get your scripts in!

Everyone, I just want to make sure we're clear on this, in these reviews. The theme. You don't have to state it as true, in order for it to be done correctly. Of course, that's one way to do things. You can also disagree with it (killing their family to save their friends, for example) or, if you character is a real hero, kill someone else to save themself.

This agreement/disagreement/indifference will be true for every round in the tournament, tailored to each individual theme, of course.
