I'm in.
Bank on it.

Keep in mind the better you can provide challenge requirements based on resource capabilities, wide or narrow, the better I/we can zero in on what is feasible.

Oorah!


I'll be around to clarify...

I'm in like Errol...

As Balt said, the Halloween challenge was great, as we had to work with the criteria. And for me, working in a 'new' genre' - horror - was great.

Hanging out till Saturday arvo my time!!!

Looking forward to it. Had a good concept and outline for the Star Trek one, just got too busy. However, it may be worth taking a stab at in the future with different characters. Nothing is ever wasted, really.

2009 Academy Award Short winner

Part 1 - http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=O3tMkI12DW4
Part 2 - http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=RQxXByWYZMU

We shooting for something like this?


We'll leave the Academy Award winning ones till a later date...well you can give it a go actually, the theme is wide enough, but I'll really be looking for very good examples of [what it is], not so much films that I think will win an Oscar.

There's probably a better place to link this, but... whatever.

Hi to the new guys.  The genre and theme will be posted later this evening.  You haven't missed anything yet.

Do not put your name on the submission, and if you are going to play, you are very much encouraged to comment on the works of your fellow authors during the "anonymous" week.

Submitting a script, getting lots of comments, and giving nothing in return is considered very bad form.  Just sayin'.


Hey, it's my tiny, little IMDb!

Good morning, noobs!
And welcome!

You'll note at the top of the portal page:
(http://www.simplyscripts.net/cgi-bin/Blah/Blah.pl?b=,v=portal  <-- bookmark it!)

The February 2011 One Week Challenge Starts 2/18 at 10:00 pm est

The criteria will be announced then, so you'll hafta hold onto your little spurs till tonight EST.


You two have your format down pretty decent?
You can go do some homework in the meanwhile by digging through the beefs and gripes over past one week challenges (OWCs).
http://www.simplyscripts.net/cgi-bin/Blah/Blah.pl?c-OWC/
That'll keep you outta a lot of trouble.
Keep in mind it's difficult for readers to focus on story elements and content when format is bogging them down. (GUILTY!!!)

GL
Hope you suck worse than me!
