Congrats to everyone for doing work finishing those scripts! Are we allowed to post our loglines now? I seem to recall in previous years threads were created mere hours after the deadline for folks to post prompts and loglines, but this year its been crickets, which makes me question if I’m making that all up in my head?

I was wondering the same! You're correct that last year we did post titles and loglines but I'm not sure if a rule has changed or it's just that fewer people frequent the SW forum these days.

Okay, so I’m not going crazy! I have noticed there was less buzz on here leading up to and during the first round compared to previous years. I remember there being more of a flurry of activity. So maybe that’s the reason.

Hmmm, I thought the submission emails told us not to post anything for 72 hours after the deadline, presumably to deal with corrupted files and late entries (which get comments from judges but can't go to round2).

Stories, as in actual readable scripts, yes! We have to wait for that email from NYCM before we post those. But loglines and titles have been shared freely previously between the deadline and when we receive that email…

I came looking for this earlier too.
Let's get this party started. @Nick, maybe edit the post to reflect that this is where we are posting titles and loglines. Here's mine: GROUP: 36 GENRE: Romantic Comedy SUBJECT: Skin care CHARACTER: A frequent flyer Title: Pimples, Potions & Personal Imperfections Logline: In the kingdom of Eldoria, Princess Delilah, once the fairest of them all, faces a serious crisis - a complexion catastrophe. With her engagement ball fast approaching, she journeys to the Swamp Lands to seek help from an unlikely source. I've really struggled lately with my writing mojo. I'm glad I did this as I've missed the screenplay challenges. I have been so immersed in the news and sooooooo wanted Political Satire, that it took me a long while to adjust from that place to find a warm place to write a Rom-Com. I went outside the box mashing up with Fairy-Tale and totally bashed my character prompt on the head, because it was out of the box and could've been missed, and because I got DQ'd last year in Short story over my character's role not being relevant enough.
