Quoted from khamanna
There's an entry everyone loves that is still going down so--

Here's an idea - there could be an entry in the third round selected out of those that sank. They call it something in those games. I think in American Idol or some singing competitions they do that, the judges have one come back.


To go up against who? The numbers wouldn't work out.

Sean said it's going to be one parameter for all. So maybe it's the last round where the participants vote just like they do in a regular OWC.

Well, if two-pieces are allowed Sean will have to explain if they could be connected at all, and if yes if it could be on either side.

No, I'm ahead in votes. I will probably be through to next round. I just don't agree with the rules changing at the start of the round.

I'm sour because there has been many comments about my script not following instructions. My opponent feels cheated. I'm not left with a feeling that I earned anything.

You people are almost outing yourselves. I can guess your entry now (which I'm not going to do now of course) and be 100percent sure I guess it right.

Dozens of votes??

There was one script that I did not think met the parameters.

It was not close in quality to the other script.

Feel badly if you lost because (a) you had a superior script and (b) the reason it lost was confusion re: the rules.  Just saying that from my perspective there wasn't a single script that was A and B.



Dave, I'm with you on this one and that entry has not lost. Let's hope it doesn't.

No guessing! lol.

Sorry, I shouldn't have said I lost "dozens" of votes. I think the word I was looking for was "several". I think 3 people mentioned on my script page that they were not voting for me because of it.

It's whatever. I'm going to try and just have fun if I move through to the next round.

So, what will happen if a person outs himself? He's out of the game then, right?

I hope it doesn't turn into an OWC voting style, half the fun of this has been the knockout style. I hope that holds till the end.

Well, there's a writer who has written so well that he's "outed" himself each round. He didn't make any attempt to keep his identity hidden; to give his opponent even a shred of a chance.

We might just have to disqualify him for these reasons
