Congrats to Paul. Truly worthy script.

And Bill, who always cries about how bad his work is then proceeds to leave us all in the dust.

Congrats to everyone for entering! Well done, SSers!!!

Congrats Paul! Cold Blood was my top pick, a well deserved win.

And congrats to the runners up, all good entries. I had The Vampire Affair and Sickening Desires as among my top picks as well, the other two a little lower down.

I also had Can't You Hear It and For The Love Of Satan high up on my list, though I'm not surprised they didn't do as well. I think they're excellent scripts that could be tremendous with a little more work.

Well done Paul you legend!

And well done to the those who placed, top work. Some strong writers around here.

Reading the entries was fun, illuminating, frustrating, entertaining and inspiring. Well done all.

And congrats to Steven for running a smooth OWC

YEOWEEEE....(note- I must remember which script that came from)

Wow, I’m stunned.

Well done Paul, great effort.

And also , Praneel,   marnie (especially, well done you) and Zack.

It is an honour, free of charge for those who miss that factor, to take part. Thanks Don and Steven.

My fav, for its bonkers approach, was For the Love of Satan. Flawed, but great potential.well done, Alex. Hope you can fine tune this.

Nicely done Paul! You're on a roll as you've been winning and placing well in the last couple OWCs and 2019 tourney. Cold Blood was top notch.

Great work from Praneel, Marnie and Zack, too. Kudos!

Congrats to Paul!

And to the runners up too.

A special shout out to Rene - terrific action writing in Devil's Night Massacre.
And, great job to 'Kevin Bacon' .

Warren, you cometh and then goeth.    What was up with that?

I wasn't going to take part, but then it seemed like there were only going to be a few entries to read so I wrote something on the day of submission. When the scripts were released and there were 20 I just couldn't commit to reading over 200 pages so I asked Don to pull it.

A mixture of having a bit on my plate at the moment and pure laziness :p

I did read a couple, one of them being Paul's and knowing his writing, the best one came out on top.

I might submit it a bit later, but no one missed out on anything spectacular. It was below average at best.

Well, it seems it cometh again, cause I just read it.

Whew! That's one gruesome crazy tale, Warren. Shades of Rosemary's Baby with an R-rating.

Oh did it get posted?

I planned on changing a fair few things, but if Don's put it up then that would be the original.
