wow, spencer sure had a lot of free time on his hands ;D


I fixed that.  I cut and pasted to quickly and it looked like Spencer wrote them all.

Hey Jordan, give Don a time, man. he is tired! God had 7 days, man!

Hahaha  I knew Jordan wrote Wasteland.  

Good job to everyone.  While some didn't grasp me, it's still an accomplishment to write a short in a week on science fiction and popcorn.  Kudos.

I did write one, but didn't submit it as I felt it was too dirty.  Perhaps at a future time I shall send it in.

Man, my guesses were way off. I was only able to guess Helio, Jordan, and Sean and Sean said his would be obvious to figure out. Oh well, at least I was able to fool a couple folks into thinking Bert wrote my script, hehe.

Well, mystery solved. Until the next OWC at least.


Cheers, Chismeister.

Well, must say, I was off with most of my guesses. But, again, this was a great challenge that gave everyones imagination a test, and everyone who participated gets thumbs up, as do the ones who didn't but still gave some reads.

:D

Inside information. Sorry to inform you that someone very close to you may be on the take.

No, I don't know how someone could NOT know it's you. To me, you're style's even easier to tell than Helio's.

Anyway, I should admit that one was rather hard to do.

Oooo, I was way off with both my guesses. I really need to start reading more.

Do you believe me now, Ape?

I told you I didn't write one and you didn't believe me!

Do you believe now, Ape? ARE YOU A FREAKING BELIEVER??????


Cheers, Chismeister.

Not to be a prick Michel, but I noticed you didn't read anyone else's script.  I hope that you're just super busy and not being lazy.  All the other writers did readings, even people like Bert, Kevan, Robert Spence, Greg, to name a few, who did not submit one read some scripts, if not all.  Again, not trying to be a dick, just hope there's a reason.


I must admit that due to personal problems I currently have a reduced participation to SS. I even wrote my script Crunch Crunch in two hours. I perfectly know that it's not enough and perfect, but I wanted to be here somehow. I'm sorry I broke the rule not reading the other's scripts, but believe me, it's against my will. I think I never used you to a such habit.
