the coffee... it tastes so bitter...

so dirty...


Phil (sobbing)

A lot of people in Feb took the position that they would read scripts of people who read theirs after the reveal. Kind of poor sportsmanship to do it that way, but better than nothing.

Alone was the first released, Chris. It was the first I read I think.

If you get 10 or so reads, it's enough to give you a pretty good idea of what worked and didn't work in your story.

I think that's a really good point.  How many new things can there be for the 25th reviewer to say?

I have four left to read, I think, but I will take care of that tomorrow.

Suggestion....Don does to MP Chris what Phil did to Don to get that mug and maybe Chris will give Don the code for the voting system at MP which is perfect and the most fair I've ever seen.

Quoted from leitskev It is an unusual number of guests. Been like that a couple days at least. At first I thought maybe the OWC, but I think actually it must be a search engine driving people here. Something a lot of people are looking for and this forum is showing up in the search. Best I can think of.

Hate to burst everyone's bubble, but the 20 'guests' is actually BaiDu.com a large Chinese search engine (like google)  http://www.baidu.com/

They are indexing the site.

Ugh! No. That Poor to Excellent voting system reminds me of English class.  We're voting on scripts for movies and the scoring should reflect that.  Reader scoring all the way!  Pass, Consider, Recommend.  Only way to do it.

Are the Chinese going to be allowed to read our twisted, morally corrupt capitalist scripts???

I gotta write a Chinese zombie vampire comedy horror. This could be my break!

Just came back from the Film Festival and it's too bad that I missed most of the action. I'll do better next time and I do have to admit that the Film Festival was, in the end, very much worth it.

You're not too late, Henrik...get reading!

You've gotten alot of positive feedback already, so it's now time to catch up.

Is the author information public already?

And yes, I'll definitely do some more reading and commenting in the next week or so. But I still feel like I missed a week of exciting action.

Author info has not been released yet, but I know which one you wrote...as I know all!

What do you all think about starting a thread for this ongoing OWC where we can list favorites according to a bit of some classification?

A few might be horror, comedy, drama... in a very very general sense.

Perhaps some of our scripters, who so desire, could create classification headers
and it would help us identify certain patterns that cause an individual script to be labeled as such...

Now I know, some are obvious and this might not be the right OWC for this, but there are so many sub-genres that are difficult to nail/classify (and some being born as we speak) and so we could learn a lot in this, and future OWCs.

The reason I bring this up is because I have a favorite in this and it's a comedy, but I feel like I'm being remiss to some of the dark entries which I found to be equally excellent. So yeah... got me thinking... And I would like to learn more about genre classification and have the chance to study some works that you all might be familiar with, but I haven't the faintest knowledge (of).

I listed my top 10 or so in the other thread, Sandra, and discussed strngths and weaknesses. If that might help you.
