Just decide on one between the two of you.  

Like said above  (any genre, 1-5 pages), is fine.

Unless, of course, you're concerned that it's written for this challenge.  

So, in that case, here is a signature item that must be included as part of the story.

Does that work for everyone?  Yes.  Get writing.

Works for me. I'll need the 48hrs, tho. I guess we're doing dropbox this time instead of just pm-ing you the script raw???

Never used it. I'll figure it out.

HaHa...funny.  Look forward to it.

Usually, the genre and a theme were randomly chosen to make sure everything about the script was fresh.  Funny, or sad thing is, that we've actually had established, experienced writers use previously written scripts for OWC's in the past.  You never know with some peeps.

Best of luck, gentlemen.

Nothing to it.

1- download d.b.
2. Put the file in your public folder.
3. Go into public folder.
4. Right click your script file and press "Copy public link".

That won't be happening.  Scout's honor.

That's easy for you to say.  You're not the one going up against the writer of So Pretty, Teaching with Violence and Eleven Eleven.

I may have bitten off more than I can chew.   I guess we'll see.

Very true, but think how lucky you are that I turned down your challenge.  My slate includes No Meat, Of Cannibals and Cabins, Return to the Cabin, and of course, Wolves at the Door.

Few if any could compete with those classics.

I've wanted to see this resurrected for a long time now, so I took it upon myself after I saw M's challenge to Jeff. I think it's a great idea and with the lack of OWCs it makes the board more fun.

Michael used to come up with some VERY specific loglines that were hard to write a short for. Look at some of the old challenges! But, if I'm just creating more work for the mods, I feel I may have imposed upon them.

Michael, are you going to accept entries from third parties this go around? I wouldn't be surprised if the defending champ chimes in if you do.

Looks to me like you are just making more work for Corney, not me.

As long as he is cool sheaperding your challenge, fine by me.


Hey, it's my tiny, little IMDb!
