What to consider when judging the submissions:
Is it clear what two movies have been used for the scenario?
Is the scenario ready to be run as is?
Is there a mythos twist to the scenario?
How is the layout? Is the scenario easy to read?
Last you have to ask yourself if you´d consider to run it.

These things combined should give you an idea as to which submission is your favorite.

Anyone who is a user on the forum may vote on one scenario.

The scenarios will be anonymously posted for user judgment.

Prize: Honor and pride plus the opportunity to run the scenario here on the board.

Two days to go before the writing begins. Good luck and let´s see if more than one entry comes in. I´ve decided on which two films to mash into a mythos pulp.

Poor managing on setting up the contest. Too much work in life itself or simply bad timing? Those things made me miss the deadline of my competition. I extend the competition to a 24 days competition - leaving the deadline open till Chrsitas Eve.

That will make my own submission readable here and maybe some other.

Cheers!
