OMG! Wasn't expecting that! Thanks so much everyone. This 5th round almost killed me. LOL

This was my favorite round of scripts. I liked every single one of them.

Called it! Congrats, Marnie. It was my favorite.

Way to go, Stevie. Although you could've hung a messenger.

And, Mark, loved Sell it Sally. Still not sure why....

Yay! One for the girls! Well, for the girl, anyway! On ya, Marnie.

And yes, Stevie!! Well done, you shorts-wearing (even in Winter) 'old goat'. Loved the frozen meal invention, and the rest. My personal fav.

I have not been able to keep up with the WT at all, but in this latest batch, Meal Of Fortune is definitely the best title and if I was going to pick one to read, that would be the one.  :)

Congrats to everyone for putting in the time and effort for these.  8)

So, I'm trying to read The Cost Of War, but when I click on the link it takes me to a script called Thrillseekers...

Pia, opening it from the actual thread just worked for me.

Something must have stuffed up on the results page but it downloads fine from the other.

Btw, a big shout out to Blondie for engineering this fun Tourny. Evil machinations, but all jokes aside it was a lot of fun. And, it's always great to see SS at full speed.

And to you too of course, Don!

Excited to see what's on the horizon.
And yes, I actually know a certain someone has something very special ready to unleash in the not too distant future.

Not me, btw.
Stay tuned...

Yes dear. I have a basic idea how these boards work after 14 years. ;D I was just pointing out the link didn't work.

Will read first think in the morning. Got to go to bed now.  :)
