Quoted from Steven For the title page, are we to put anything? Or do we even include one?

I like title pages.

I think the extra few hours allotted makes it fairer for the writers that may have been asleep when the tourney started.

Quoted from DustinBowcot I think the extra few hours allotted makes it fairer for the writers that may have been asleep when the tourney started.

I wish I knew of them earlier. Because I felt under pressure to write, thinking I had just a day to read and submit. I could have thought of other ideas if I knew.

I've just submitted my effort.

Hopefully it makes the grade.

There's still time. I wrote my idea out in the first few hours, I've spent the rest of the time polishing it. Given the time allotted, it's probably best to run with whatever we come up with first.

That's what I'm saying. I wrote mine literally in the first hour so I that I have time to read and polish. I don't know if I would rush that bad if I knew there's more time.
It's not a bad idea though. I'm fairly satisfied with it but let's see what you all think. --submitted mine.

Yes? Haha

For some reason (entirely my mistake - read the rules wrong) I thought I had very little time to write and submit.

Have no idea where it will land. What I learned though is that my lack of writing sometimes must be attributed to laziness rather than to "writer's block" because knowing that I had to get something done real fast really made me focus and pound away. Going to rethink how I approach this hobby.

Submitted. Interested in seeing where my opponent went with it.

On Time and Timing.

The short notice is one of the aspects of the challenge.  Can you write a script in a short amount of time on short notice.  This aspect of the challenges is suppose to emulate real life experience.  Someone says to you, "I need a script/scene/rewrite on short notice. Can you do it?"

Can you do it?

With regard to the extra time given in this challenge.  Remember, you can resubmit as many times as you want up to the deadline.  Extra time is Mana from heaven to re-read and revise.

Writer's block is a figment of your imagination. I can write three 5-page shorts in 24 hours if I put my mind to it. I'm sure you could too.

I liked the time constraints for that very reason. Made me practice a new approach.

Yep - kind of the point. This one taught me that if I keep hammering the keys rather than over thinking every letter - wala - stuffs come out.

For me, the thinking comes after. I get an idea and run with it... doesn't always work out, but it does most of the time.
