Years ago I thought it would be cool to mess with tone. Now (adays) (how the heck do you write now a days?!!!) ...
I understand that sometimes we blindside people; not that we mean to, but that's what ends up happening sometimes, I think...
This brings me 'round to my recent script-- that's what happened:
People came in cold from their everyday lives and WHAMOHOO! They're hit with craziness that they're not used to. They think like, "I can't think on this stupid!!!" "What the Hell?!!!"
Although I don't completely understand, I do understand. I have a poetry book in my bathroom (I'll post later on it) that contains a whack load of (well you know) poems! You can read some of these things over and over again and I don't know if you'll ever get it. Still, it's fun. It's fun trying to bring one's own conclusions into the piece.
For the most part, that's what I really enjoy in my reads: Developing an acquaintance with the author behind the words. Kind of like finding a treasure.
Okay, so surely a few people had multiple entries. Henb had two. I managed to get two up as well Any guesses? Anyone else with more that one script in the bunch?
So, you're one of those responsible for all the reading and reviewing that needed to be done. Hmm, I still think you might be 'Crazy' and I have a hunch the End Of The World' might be yours too.
Honestly though, it's too hard to tell except for some very obvious trademark writing that I know I got right with 'who wrote what'.
One entry was an achievement for me this go around.

The multiple script allowance thing was done away with many years ago when SS members like Helio, whom I miss, would enter two or even three scripts. All written during heavy mojito consumption and often no more than a few pages long. In the last few years, OWC entries have become fewer and fewer, so I decided to let ambitious writers enter more than one. We won't know until the reveal how many multi entry writers there were. All I can say is that it would be considered VERY poor form for the writers who entered more than one to not read ALL the other entries and as a reminder, you can still read and review after the voting is over. Lastly, members here tend to have long memories about certain things...
I agree if someone submitted two and did not read - that's just frustrating.
I think we, good readers, have to work together next time. Maybe we don't post our reviews and hold off till the other kind of readers starts complaining and/or actually reading.
Or we could send our reviews to a challenge master. And post them later - only for those who reciprocate in reading.

So, evidence points to if SS numbers are down the remedy is to announce a RomCom OWC. Even though some people's entries were very loose on the interpretation of Rom and Com, and despite the anticipated groaning at the genre (which never occurred btw) it seems most of us are about the hearts and flowers after all. Well, dildos and throat cutting too, but even so...
