Only 8 entries?  Damn...that sucks.

I really wanted to partake, but just ran out of steam early on.

I'm already reading, though, and will do my best to help...but please understand, as always, I will not be pulling my punches, and will give true, honest feedback...which some may not appreciate.

That's the best kind of feedback!

I'll give em all a look.  Feel free to destroy mine for basically being an immature comedy.  all notes are welcome.  I stretched the parameters as an excuse to just write.

Which one did you write?

EDIT: Nevermind, I see it now.

I'll read em all.  see if i can "find a groove" later tonight

I will read them all. I am at work today so I am having to sneak some reading in. But I promise to give notes on each one.

Have to say I am surprised only this many.... or is the Don just posting a handful at a time maybe?

Eight scripts? How wonderfully manageable. Will read them all in due time.

Yea, I went through a few but I need to read the others.

Thanks for getting these up Don.

And Thanks to all who took part. Can't wait to read what you've come up with.

Quoted from Pale Yellow Have to say I am surprised only this many.... or is the Don just posting a handful at a time maybe?

Yes, only eight (. Not surprised. It's off schedule, we are trying something new, and the genre is pretty narrow.  The record for fewest was Gay Star Trek where we only got five.  

I like it when we get a few entries as that gives each script a lot of eyes.  

Don

OMG Gay Star Trek... cool parameters

I rather like it with small amount of entries... I've already gotten some great notes ... great idea.

"Gay Star Trek" made me almost spill my beer, lol, thx. I take it it has a historical period parameter, or a gangster experimental theme

Hey, I'd like to list a suggestion/complaint.  

We just had our scripts loaded yesterday, and have been reading the others' shorts, and commenting on our own.  Shouldn't we be given a full 7 days to consider what to do with our stories?  

I mean, we're down to 5 days already and I haven't had a chance to consider mine b/c I've been reading the others.  I'm sure the other 7 feel the same way.

If we do this again, I'd like to ask for a 48 hr grace period to allow Don to upload the scripts and to give us a chance to read them.  Then, after the 2 day grace period, start the clock.  

Any other ideas how to deal with this?

Thanks
Dan

I'm not sure hat happened here, but it seems like these are all comedies or pissers.  I have 1 to go, and I can't recall a single horror script.

Weird...
