We're officially past the deadline, so we can start posting titles and loglines (but not actual screenplays yet)!

I got:
  • Group: 1
  • Genre: Romantic comedy (ugh!)
  • Location: A waiting line or queue
  • Object: A carrot
All of which yielded...

OPERATION: Get My Gay Friend a Date 

Two mismatched high-school students plot and scheme to accelerate their friends' romantic lives.

I was group 4 - Action/Adventure, A Rail Yard, A Chisel - after drawing a blank on ideas until late Saturday morning, I just went with the only one that popped in my head. But I had fun with it, and I'm happy with my end result. 

Double Dog Dare

When a 13-year-old is dared to graffiti a train car, he and his friend quickly discover they aren't the only criminals in the rail yard.

Thanks! Incorporated some of your suggestions too, so hopefully those make it play out even better :) Yours was awesome, it would be a fun (and easy) one to actually film. Thanks for the help with mine!
