I had a feeling that Mike wrote Baxter's Wish...but I didn't want to say anything...


This was a fun one! Good job everyone!

Sean

I was right about TJ, but had no clue about the rest. Well done guys the standard was excellent.

Quoted from Zombie Sean I had a feeling that Mike wrote Baxter's Wish...but I didn't want to say anything...

Yep, it was me.  In response to your question about the time passage for Baxter to rot away, it was a year.  There's no ONE YEAR LATER flag in the slug, but in a piece of dialogue Baxter says there would be a full pumpkin patch in the back yard a year from then.

Quoted from Higgonaitor Soooooo..... How are we deciding who gets the iScript?

Given the spate of reviews Phil has done in the last few days, it looks like he's in the process of deciding.

I don't think it's up to Phil.

Everyone who entered was asked to give input and vote for scripts in order and the top three scripts were to be sent to iScript who would ultimately decide who would have their script recorded.

At least that's how I interpreted it.

Pia

I don't decide.  I'm just one of many voices here.


Phil

Oh shit, we were supposed to vote, that's right. And we could only vote among the three scripts we were 'officially' given to review, right?

Quoted from Death Monkey Oh shit, we were supposed to vote, that's right. And we could only vote among the three scripts we were 'officially' given to review, right?

Right.

Quoted from tomson I don't think it's up to Phil. Everyone who entered was asked to give input and vote for scripts in order and the top three scripts were to be sent to iScript who would ultimately decide who would have their script recorded. At least that's how I interpreted it. Pia

You're absolutely right Pia
Hopefully most would have received that email

Quoted from Death Monkey Oh shit, we were supposed to vote, that's right. And we could only vote among the three scripts we were 'officially' given to review, right?

I checked my deleted messages and sure enough, we had to tell Don what our three favourites were, but we weren't given three official scripts to review.

Look at the bottom of the email with the subject OWC dated Tue, 9 Oct 2007

I don't think I received that email.

I doubled checked and sure enough we were going to be given three to review, but I never received any email telling me what my three were; if I did I can't find it.


Anyway, whatever. Whoever wins will be worthy I'm sure.

I didn't get any e-mail either, at least I don't think so........

Maybe I was the only dumbo that e-mailed Don and asked what my assigned scripts were?

Maybe he just humored me by giving me those three...
