I count 21. Shouldn't it be 24?

Not exactly. One writer asked to be removed.

Some good scripts in here, but I'm guessing the genre requirements are already checked?

The genre was checked with respect that each writer submitted three scripts of three different genres, yes.  I did not read them and come to a determination if the script met the genre stated.  

I am assuming that the reader would 'down vote' a script if he/she felt it didn't meet the genre stated.

Am having a lot of fun reading these -- especially without commenting or voting. Will come back and do that before Thursday after giving all at least a second read.

The quality is much better than previous rounds because writers have to make every word count for something.

P.S. to my last post:

On at least two scripts, I missed something important because I was not paying close enough attention (I thought I was). But, thanks to others' comments, I went back for another look. I'm so glad I had not voted!

Yeah, this is my short shorts theory in summary. You have or you have not. And most do have I think.

Okay, one page is extreme and difficult but I 100% prefer it to the 12-15 page full road thing in only few days…

Same here - I'm not voting yet, just reading and commenting. I read all but commented on less than a half.

Who bowed out of this round? Kind of unexpected. And why?

You guys have been busy!

Time to get into it.

Who pulled out? I imagine it’s not a secret as we will find out eventually.

I hate to say it, but I think some voters are artificially depressing the scores. There are some great great scripts on here that seemingly do not deserve the scores they’re getting. At least the scores are not representative of the comments shown for those scripts. So I’m having a hard time figuring out what the hell is happening. I don’t even have a dog in the fight, but I’m still hoping it’s a fair fight.


Some of my scripts:

Bounty (TV Pilot) -- Top 1% of discoverable screenplays on Coverfly
I'll Be Seeing You (short) - OWC winner
The Gambler (short) - OWC winner
Skip (short) - filmed
Country Road 12 (short) - filmed
The Family Man (short) - filmed
The Journeyers (feature) - optioned

Too bad we see the scores. I keep reminding myself that right now the impact of a single score is pretty big, a four star script will got to two stars if given a score of 1. But it's going to even out when the scripts gather 20 or more votes. One star then won't have such an impact.
I have an urge to give to five stars to some that in my opinion deserve four in order to artificially boost up the grades but I'm fighting that urge.
I'll wait a bit more before scoring.
