With 4 hours left, just wondering how everyone else getting on :) 

I think I'm just about ready to upload, haven't got it beta read though, but I've also got nothing to lose as I received a whopping zero in the last round :P

I've posted mine. The suspense is akin to watching an egg fry in a pan--it happens just like you expect--but I got something posted.

I submitted, and just resubmitted because I wanted to rewrite my logline. Hope the latest version is the one that gets there - they just go by the latest one, right? I didn't change the actual script at all, but the logline was atrocious.

Not sure if I'm improving with time management or just getting a better hang of it all, but it sure feels good to have script completed and submitted hours ahead -- as apposed to editing till the butt crack of dawn during the final minutes of the deadline...!! LOL

They take the latest one.

You're fine.

I've submitted as much as 16 times for other contests as I fine tune a submission, and it's the last one that they review.

Just submitted about 20 minutes ago. I probably edited once too many times, but at least I finally cut the cord and just (moment from Frozen...) LET IT GO! LOL

Those last minute entries can be killer! :)
Even getting in early, when I went to submit I had a moment of panic thinking I'd possibly forgotten something awful like a time change or time zone difference and would find I'd missed the window. So even when it's good, it's still stressful.  Tongue

I've submitted because I just can't look at it any more.

It's not my favourite. Not even sure I like it. Not clear on the plot.

So I am guessing 1st place. Ermm

Good luck all!

Submitted.  I'm not exactly sure of what I wrote, but I had fun.

I'm probably out this round, but at least I'll go out with a GONG. Ha!

Submitted it. Didn't love what I ended up with, but I actually enjoyed the challenge of trying to make a sub-par idea work through edits. Super curious for feedback on this one. Good luck everyone!
