I don't know how you could write and watch that game at the same time. Both offenses we're amazing. Alex Smith was perfect.

Unfortunately it doesn't look like I'm going to be able to participate in this. I'll try to read as many of them as I can.

Normally by now I'm in a mad rush to get the first draft written.

This time, I've had all week to work on it and I think for me that's a bad thing. I've been second guessing myself, changing stuff...convincing myself it is rubbish and writing alternate endings!

Gonna do the typo fix run tonight and then submit it and hope for the best!

I'm out.  dammit.  Wanted to do this too.  

If anyone wants my suppppper clever working title "Fauxbia" it's all yours.

I ended up with 8 pages.

Still at 5 pages and have a busy work day upon me.

I'm afraid mine will run long and I doubt I'll have time to chop it down to size.

ARGH!!!!!

Gonna have to bow out. I had the week off and had hoped to write as I love these OWC's, but ended up working on a different project and couldn't afford to split my time.

Best of luck to all. Will be interesting to read the last pages on these for sure.

Hi fellow OWC warriors.

Today is a weekend in my country. The plan was to start writing my script early in the morning, but I started the day off on the wrong note, so I've spent most of it sleeping and playing Hearthstone (mostly losing). As an act of revenge against my own carelessness toward the sacred event of Halloween OWC, I decided to start a writing marathon (Hardly. More like a long distance race) from 8 pm till 12 am local time. My local time-zone is UTC+1.

Being the kind of person I'm, I'm pretty sure if I don't have some kind of company online, I will most likely succumb to the lure of a warm bed and the infamous "The hell with OWC" escape route. So, I've come up with this genius idea of creating a chatroom where other fellow writers who might be interested in participating in said marathon could join the fun/torture/self-inflicted punishment.

Well, the best part is that you could use a nickname that will keep them anonymous to the rest of us which will allow you to fully engage in any query or discussion about the plot of your script without worrying about being disqualified. But those are waters to be trodden carefully since there is a thing called stylometric analysis. Hope people won't take it that far to see who is behind the mask, or at least keep their findings to themselves.

In conclusion, I've got my script outlined already. Roughly outlined actually. So I will be jumping right into the shark-infested waters of spewing out the pages. Hope I will get some company because it is such an awful feeling when the fins emerge while you are all alone.

I tried to keep it simple. I created a chat room here http://stin.to/decgt  . If you are nerdier than I'm, please provide a better solution for us to be together and I will join you right away.

POP QUIZ: Name three phobias that people who got it will find this post disturbing.

Lost track of time... and I'm going to the movies tonight... so not sure I'll be able to get in unless I can write this in the midnight hours.

Wow, so many people bowing out! Maybe I'll have a chance this OWC! Doubtful, but I can dream....

Dean Marie!  I don't believe you for a second!  I know you will be in...at least you better be!!!

BTW, I'm still at 5 pages and haven't had a chance to get back into it.

Just got home. Feel bad if there won't be that many entries from us regulars, so I will give it a shot. This OWC has been mentioned outside of this site, so it's possible we get a lot of entries. If there are a lot of entries, there will be no way I can read them all.

Just selected my phobia. We'll see what happens.  

Just noticed the clock. Is it really 14hrs + left to due time?

Quoted from Grandma Bear Just noticed the clock. Is it really 14hrs + left to due time?

Yes, there is 14 hours left.  The scripts are due on October 20th at midnight  Baker Island Time.  Baker Island is the last place on earth that it would be October 20th.

Oh...I didn't realize this.  That's good news.

I should easily finish mine, but I'm not thrilled with it this time around.  Usually, I am, and everyone hates it, so maybe this is a good sign that I don't really like it.
