actually i do love stories about Tortuga and Tierra del Fuego but i think i want to keep the place names fictional so i can set up my own geography and governments. might borrow some Flying Dutchman type stuff at some point though. Maybe Rawnwave is still sailing around somewhere in a ghost ship.

That could be exciting. A ghost ship would add some spookiness.

update. i pitched the story on saturday, heard a lot of other really good pitches and was sure i had no chance at all and then sunday evening looked at the voting and we're actually doing really well in the voting the director voted for me actually but he said my writing was similar to Robin Hobb. i have never heard of Robin Hobb so i'm going to listen to one of her audio books this afternoon. don't want any legal entanglements so we can't make anything too similar. anywho. i've forgotten Vrelt's e-mail address and i don't have time to go looking for it at the moment. if somebody has it could you pop him off a link to this thread? i think he needs to know about this since i'm kind of using some if his characters and if this idea gets picked i'm going to want your input while i'm writing the script.

I'm a little miffed today. somebody told all their friends (unrelated to the project) to vote for their plot. Rawnwave is still in the lead but it's on the story's own merit. The whole purpose of the vote is for the crew to decide what plot we want to use for our project if non-cast/crew people are voting it's not really fair. and these people are obviously just voting for the one plot and not even looking at anything else. grrrr i mean really if that's the case you guys would have as much right to vote as anybody because you had a part in creating the Rawnwave plot. I'm not asking for votes because i don't think that would be ethical but if you want to look at all of the projects you can go here: phoenix-unity.deviantart.com/blog/43674108/

I do see a variety o' submissions, though the ones I picked at random 'ave been mostly youtube vids and all that nonsense. Seems like most of 'em have thought-out stories but no real elaboration, leavin' me in a bit of a fix, y'know? *Slightly nautical accent tryout*

Yeah. I was reading them and was like "I can't in good conscious actually vote for most of these..."

here's the most recent vote count:
The Pendants of Gabriel: 9 Bassarisk: 18 Kingsmill: 17 The Heir of Rawnwave: 21 Grinspore: 18 Castles and Canals: 22 Werewolf: 7 The Brass Windkey: 2 Bandits: 17 Dan Clan: 2 UNKNOWN: 7 Ferris Island: 0 Common Man's Lot:
Castles and Canals is the director's own pitch and i've chatted with him about if we're the top two maybe merging the two stories somehow. and i'd personally prefer Grinspore to Bassarisk as the third but i guess we'll just have to see what tomorrow brings.
