I'm with you Dena. Hell Bent is Jeff's, I'm pretty sure. I think he might be taking a break though...

Quoted Text
I have Jeff for Touche


No chance, Touche was Dave, pretty much 100% certain. I've figured out his tells and there's one phrase in there in particular that Dave uses, and also added to my first script on this site

Will check out Hell Bent. Maybe it's one I missed.


---------------------

Okay, I read it. Not Jeff's.

I am horrible at the guessing game. I know who wrote one for certain because the author dropped hints throughout - everything else is a mystery to me.

These are the ones that made it to my top third (I always read these twice before voting to separate the best from the very best). In no particular order of preference they were:

- Living Nightmare
- To Have and to Hold
- Desquamation
- Origin of Fear
- Damn Your Eyes
- Touche
- Brown Water
- Eisoptrophobia

That was the list from which I selected by top three. Again - other than the one reveal - ain't got a clue on the writer.  To Have and To Hold had a Libby vibe to me - that is far as I will go.

My Own Awards:

Best Title: Tie between Disquamation and Summerwind

Best Logline: To Have and To Hold.

Best Reviewers: Warren Duncan and Stevie Miles. Both with in depth comments on all scripts.

As a side note, in future OWCs - I think it would be nice to have an actual award for the best reviewer based on the number, extent and quality of reviews - I am willing to front the cost for a Reviewer's Crappy Mug if anyone at SS is interested in pursuing this.  All we would have to do is add that field (best reviewer) on the bottom of the score card. Food for thought.

Double thanks, Dave.

Made your list and thanks for the review mention, although I think some might disagree ha-ha

Hey - glad you were there.  You reviews are always thoughtful, frank and generally spot on - sure that all appreciate them.

Sometimes you can open a script and the formatting will give it away.

I think there were four or five I gave the highest score. It was hard to tell for me this time though who wrote what. Everyone here is growing and getting better I think.

I love these challenges. Really gets my writing bug crawling back under my skin again. Hmm was that gross?

Yeah - would have made for a good phobia - title of course = "Write Crawler"

Hey guys
    I'd like to sincerely apologize for my lack of reading.  I only managed to read 10 this week and comment on.

I thought I'd take the rest of the week off and recuperate and do the rest next week.  I even missed my own birthday party (yes it got cancelled) due to fatigue

I will read them all.

Why the less time?  I thought the first week was to review, then the second week you had the entire week to turn in your votes.  That didn't happen this to e

I haven't even read the reviews on my entry yet, though on sure they are severe since I only wrote a vomit draft.

Again, I am sorry for dropping the ball.  I thought I'd have this whole week to catch up and read and vote.  If I had known about the less time, I never would have entered.

I do promise to read them all.

My 2 cents for the argument.  Give people more time and make it mandatory that all entries must read at least 50% or their story gets pulled.  Or, before you can enter a story, you must have at least 25 comments in the previous 3 months.

I will also add that as a person who has read every short in the OWC up to now and commented, it is very intimidating to see that there are 30 entries.  I think that reviews go down and become quicker because there are so many others to get thorough in such a short time.  I mean, we barely had a week to read and post 30 reviews and vote.  Is it insane to think that more time to do things would lead to better feedback??  More time to really think about a story and let it digest, even for a night??

I feel like I have to crank them out so fast.  I think 7 days to read and leave feedback is fine for 15 entries, but for this many, at least I needed much more time.

Why was the timeline shortened for this challenge??

I guess I will see how bad the reviews were for my story now.  This should be fun, really...

Anyone have any clue what I wrote??

Dan


Please read my scripts:
http://www.simplyscripts.net/cgi-bin/Blah/Blah.pl?b-series/m-1427564706/

I'm interested in reading animation, horror, sci fy, suspense, fantasy, and anything that is good.  I enjoy writing the same.  Looking to team with anyone!

Thanks
Dan

Dan, I know, usually it's too weeks for reads and reviews. Although that's been norm only for the last couple of years I think. If I recall correctly previously OWC's moved pretty quickly.

Anyway, this time round it's because people started complaining about lack of reads too early so it moved very quickly toward closing.
