Congratulations to everyone who scored better than I did this round
Seems to be an emerging tradition that my first Writers Tournament script each year gets shredded. The thing is, they attract awesome SS feedback and do reasonably well in the outside world. Timmy, which some folks didn't even think was finished at the time I uploaded it, was a quarterfinalist at Page. Image Problem, which was pretty universally reviled, is at the quarterfinals so far in this year's Page.
Yes, I know a quarterfinalist laurel and a dime will only buy you two nickels, but my point is that no matter how much you think you flubbed the constraints on the tournament, it's excellent practice and well worth doing.
Well done, Paul. Line was my favourite and it deserved to win.
Congratulations to everyone who entered and Frank is correct. Do not be disheartened if your script does not score highly here. My most successful short scripts have been owc scripts that didn't win.

It's fun when you stumble on something that people respond to.
(And, yes, LC... you busted me on the one horrific line of dialogue. I've taken that one out already.)
Can't wait to read Mark's take on his script. There was some great imagery in there. And, Michelin Man was a blast.
(Quick side note... my script title is supposed to be Lines. I must have accidentally dropped the "s" when I submitted.)
Now, I'm off to see if I can salvage this week's pages. Good luck everyone. Remember, Mark likes his script for this week, so you know he's bringing it!
