We will also send ONE COURTESY email with your feedback if you
provide your email address. Be sure your mail server
does
not block emails
from the servers @creativescreenwriting.com and @screenwritingexpo.com
in order to receive your score and feedback. However: email
delivery is unreliable due to spam filters. If you receive it
by
email, great. But the official posting of all Cyberspace Open
information is at or through this page. We wil NOT re-send if
an
email does not get through. Come to this page.
How
Contestants Will Receive The Premises And Announcements
To guard against the contest server bogging down, the Round 1 premise
and email addresses to send entries will be posted at 5:00 p.m. Pacific
time at the top of this page and at:
In addition, a COURTESY
email will
be sent a few minutes before the posting time with the same
information. If
you receive this courtesy email, great--please
don't rush to the server. It will have the same
information.
However, mass email proved unreliable last time. So
if you
do not receive the email by 5:00 p.m., please visit the server.
Remember: under the Rules, the email is a courtesy
aimed at
keeping the server from bogging down. It is your
responsibility
to download the premise if you do not receive the email within a few
minutes after 5:00 P.M.
All subsequent contest announcements will be posted near the top of
this page or
at links from the top of this page.
