Signing in, or up...
God help me!
I usually like to know what the heck I'm signing up for but given you said we can back out, count me in for now. How's that?

I think it was more the fact that scripts that shoehorned the criteria in were still getting high marks for dialogue, characters etc. |

I promise, all the details of the mystery will be revealed, in time. You'll have plenty of time to decide whether or not it's something you're interested in doing.

For those of you who preferred that format (including myself), I apologize. Not this year. It highly incentivized cheating on something equally subjective. |

How would it promote cheating? Who would even cheat at something like this? It's just an awful lot of reading, plus the writing, in the midst of a very stressful time. At least the writers who are eliminated can concentrate on reading, and there's less and less material to read each week. AJR |

When you only have one person to beat, per round, it makes cheating easier to hide. This was what happened the first year. Luckily, Don discovered it before it had an effect on the final outcome. As for your apprehension about the amount of work involved, I understand. This is no easy undertaking. |

Four months, Don. Four months. I have to hibernate from SimplyScripts in the fall in order to dull my fragile senses of the misery and despair of the preceding summer. Then, I still do it again the next year. =) |

Wow, Don! A few semicolons, but apart from that all of it in one sentence. Hmm, you could get picked on (if you partake) for rambling stream of consciousness and your use of non-sequiturs, but I'd say: much improved from your initial effort. ... Btw, yes, congrats from me too, Mark R. Nice one. |

Oh great. Another opportunity to promise myself I'll finish something, then spend days staring at a blank computer screen until I admit that I don't have it in me anymore, then spend a month loathing myself. COUNT ME IN!! |

LC, my response:
… insert ~ gnarly rant ~
|
Ha! I knew it was all about huge dialog; big, shiny, dialog… and an elephantine coleus – if going the suggested Denis Leary route. Mind you, that was a reference on another thread, so… It might seem totally out to lunch here. As always. I’ll give this one a try? I seem somewhat unsure of myself, that being, Canada Day is just around the bend and I usually host a two- or 3-day function. Is writing actually starting around the registration deadline? June 29-ish? Hopefully, I’ll be able to give it full dedication. |

I won't be able to participate on the week of June 6th. I'll be doing a one-week bootcamp at that time. But I'm remaining registered! Cos I'm scared to miss out on something good.
To me it's like Sean layed eggs and we're making omelets out of them. |

Well, as some of you have posted below (and I do so appreciate it), today is my (and Stevie's, you micro-peckered Brit. Sorry, Stevie, Jeff's over-used blow-up dolls may be watching us, so I had to say something...) birthday. As such, I feel a present is in order. I'll reveal the purpose of Clue #1 for you all.
As was correctly guessed by ReneC four days ago, you writers are going to be paired off together. However, you are going to be both working with and against each other throughout the duration of the Tournament.
More details on how will follow when the next clue is revealed. |

Lol Blondie wrong on both counts - I’m a well hung Aussie Little secret from the past - my first OWC in Jan 2009 (a two week challenge) was a pairs thing. I was actually paired with Jeff! I didn’t know much about him but I learned quickly as I wrote the entire short and we pretended he did some of it |

Oh, umm… you mean paired with someone as in co-writing scripts? Okay, umm… I’m not sure I can truly function with a normative thought structure when writing, just throwing that out there.

Stevie! You are one funny motherfucker! And I mean that as a compliment. I was going to quote you, but both digs were so good, I decided not to. If the 2 Legends could be paired together again, it would be EPIC!!!! Pure comedy gold!!! Release the Kraken! I'm engaged...no Stevie, not engorged, so don't get all excited. |

Maybe each team will have five “stars” of experience. Could be one Of the Ancients, a Been around a While and a Regular, or five New-ish...
Just kidding. It sure Sean has something far more diabolical in mind. |
Far more. That's kid's stuff, Frank. =) Each week, the pressure will be turned up higher and higher... |

Jeff, it was a joke. Hence the line about reverse psychology. Poking a little fun at your larger than life personality when added to the anxiety of the randomness of being paired with someone. Like back in grade school with science projects. But if I have to explain it then it obviously wasn't funny, so I apologize.

Bums me to say it, but I'm out.
My availability is spotty over the next few weeks, and if someone else is going to have to count on me to be a good partner... well, I just can't guarantee it. It's one thing to submit a crappy last minute entry for myself... it's quite another to let down a fellow writer.
I'll lurk, though. And, probably write some shorts that match the assignments as I have time. (Just for me.)
Good luck all! |

There are a lot of assumptions about partnering being made. Remember the clues, the partnering is likely to be antagonistic. Like forced at gunpoint or working as much against each other as with.
Maybe one person will be forced to write all the dialogue and the other all the action. Or tug of war where they work directly against each other and the "partnering" is because each pairing has different criteria.
Or maybe it's really about brackets and this is the March Madness of screenwriting with pairs actually being pair-offs and may the best script in each pairing win.
Or maybe I'm just giving the madman ideas. |

I wouldn't worry about that, BarryJohn. Though there's a big U.S. contingent there's also a lot of us from far flung lands. Sean will clue us in... Sometime... In the near future. P.S. More to the point why has the font gone incredibly small on these last two pages? And why does the font colour for Mods sometimes turn from purple to black in different posts? Weird. Maybe it's just me. Or maybe there's a ghost in the machine. |

OMG, you are KILLING me. This tourney is my favorite thing here at good ol' SimplyScripts. Here's my deal... I'm in, IF it's clear I won't harm someone else in the first 2 or 3 weeks. I don't mind taking a hit for writing a bit of junk. But, I don't want to hurt someone else's chances of advancing, if they are counting on me as a partner. I'm out if there's any kind of inter-connectivity... as it wouldn't be fair to someone else. I hate to be difficult. (Who am I kidding? I love to be difficult.) Just let me know. Ironically, the main reason I'll be distracted is trying to develop one of my scripts from last year's tourney into a feature idea for Imagine Impact. The deadline looms over me, ever mocking. |

oh, ok, I read Pauls post just now. At first I thought it carries some sexual meaning - like hitting his penis. And I got surprised why Paul should be aware of that. |

Everyone will have to sign the agreement. No exceptions, under penalty of death (or something less dramatic, maybe)... |

I'll have to bow out, unfortunately. Will look to participate in the future. |

BTW, what I'm saying is - they don't have to bow out now but before signing the agreement. (oh, and if I sign it and won't have time to write I can always ask my cat to do it for me.) |

No, they don't. And, really, I'm just playing around. Trust me when I say that the Agreement isn't what you think it is. Nothing to be worried about. But, if need be, you can borrow my burning pen and if you would, please, use a dash of hemoglobin on that pretty, dotted line, I would sure appreciate it. |

Just a reminder to anyone who may be interested, Registration closes in 8 hours. You'll still be able to get out after this point, but anyone who's not penciled in as a yes or a maybe, by then, will be considered out. Thank you. |

^ Yep, me too, Ant. No falling into the abyss for me. Btw Blondie, the lead up to this is excruciating, worse than being a kid before Christmas. Please can we have one present to unwrap before the big day? Actually, when is the big reveal day? |

I’m not sure where “More to come...” would be more ominous: the agreement with a credit card, the EULA on an installer screen, or in a fortune cookie. |

Surprisingly, it's a lot more horrific and foreboding than any of the above mentioned. By weeks 4 and 5, you're going to probably hate somebody else even more than you're going to hate me. |

So if we’re themed of how 2020 has sucked, the ten genres are probably drama, horror, sci-fi, drama, drama, drama, drama, drama, drama, and drama |
