Welcome to the dvxuser.com ScriptFest II
You've all been anxiously typing away at your keyboards, finely crafting the perfect script to submit and as usual there is a very interesting mix of entries. You are all very creative and it's a pleasure to see how you take a concept and birth it into something very real.
Regardless of how the voting turns out we all appreciate the huge amount of work it takes to complete and submit an entry -- all of you have our admiration and respect.
You can view the scripts at

Just like in the recent TimeFest we are employing the new rating system. Please notice, it is a rating, not a ranking system. The idea is not to pit one script against another. Instead each script should be rated individually.
The ratings are 1 - 10 where 1 means there is nothing positive to be said about the entry and 10 means there is nothing negative to be said about the entry.
If you read 5 different scripts and feel the same way about all 5 then rate them all the same.
You also have the option to re-rate each entry. So if on a subsequent read of the script you realize it's better than you thought, or worse, you can go in and change your rating.
How do I rate a script?
To rate a script, simply hover your mouse over the number of stars that represent your rating (1 star = a rating of 1, 5 stars = a rating of 5, 10 stars = a rating of 10, etc). To secure your rating, click the mouse button. This immediately saves that as your rating amount.
You will notice, however, that if you hover your mouse over the stars again it follows the mouse. This allows for the re-rating, if you again click the mouse on a different star number, then it will update your previous rating with the new rating value.
When not hovering over the stars for an entry it will show your most recent rating for that entry.
How long will viewing be open?
The viewing/rating of entries will be open until 11:00 AM Pacific Time (Los Angeles, CA time) on Friday, August 22, 2008. That gives you a week and a half to read and rate the scripts ... so get to work
Who is eligible to vote?
All current dvxuser.com members with 50 or more posts, plus all submitting writers regardless of your post count.
If you have less than 50 posts but submitted a script, please let me (Larry R) know so I can authorize you in the fest system.
Congratulations to all the writers that submitted entries and thanks to all the members participating.
As always, if you have any questions or problems please contact the moderators. You can start with myself and Isaac, but if we aren't around then any of the moderators should be able to help you.
