I Made the List

[LGM]

If anyone here frequents Great Writing, you would know that they are offering a contest to win a holiday trip to France.

They announced the candidates today, and my one-act play is on the list. This means, if I get enough votes, I could win a trip to France.

Granted, I'd have to pay my air fare.. But how cool is that?!

If you are a member, vote for teh LGM! If not, register and vote!

Whee! I am excited.

[Esseb]

Isn't air fare generally the most expensive part of holidays to Paris if you live in the US? This doesn't sound like a very good prize.

[LGM]

For Americans, sure. The site is based in the UK.

I'm just stoked I actually made it.

If I win, I dunno if I'll actually go..

[Mr Jake]

So you are stealing the prize off some poor person that REALLLLYYY wants to goto France?

HOW SELFISH!

I hope nobody rushes over there to vote for you lgm.

Not because I have anything against you...but do you really want to win that way?

The point of contests is to encourage people to create good work, not to practice their advertising skills

[Bab@r]

heheh.. ok, so now everyone, READ the play that LGM wrote, be astounded by it's incredibleness, and THEN vote for him.

[LGM]

Yes. I didn't say you had to vote for me just because it's me. I DO encourage you to read the entries and vote based on merit.

So yeh. I dunno. I want to win the trip, just to say I did, but if I couldn't end up covering the cost, I would hand it off to the runner-up. if I won, though, I might just be arsed enough to actually save some money to go in the summer.

[LimpingFish]

I read it. It was well written, but...did I miss the point? I doesn't so much as end, it just...stops.

Other than that, good luck with it.

Ps. I read 'Lies' too. That was also by you, yeah? I found that to be more complete .

[LGM]

Lies was my first play. I never regarded it as much, but since I rewrote it awhile back it's grown on me. Thanks for recognizing it

Poker Night was really written as a spur of the moment thing. We needed a play to perform for our one-act. My only provision was to write a part for my friend Henry. Mike is that character. It worked out nicely.

I've revised the script since then. There really IS no point to it. It's just a nice little snippet of the mens' lives. I dunno. You liked it, though, eh?

[LimpingFish]

Sure, I liked it. Taking it a just a kind of 'Vignette' of what happens at a poker game, it's grand. And as good as what's also nominated. I'll sign up and vote for you, if you like.

[LGM]

Vignette. That's the word. Thanks again. About voting, I don't really care what you do either way.. lol. If you do, thanks.

[LimpingFish]

Too late, my vote has been cast .

21% of the vote so far, not bad.

Good Luck.
