    Does anyone know the rate/ratio of success on the "featured" Black List scripts? Curious to know if any writers have sold or been commissioned off this extra push.

    Any one using the blacklist to host your script refute a rating? I got a 4 along with 2 7s.

      I received a 5 score from an old spec that got optioned and secured representation way back when. I challenged it, they offered me a half price review and it came in at a 7. Useful notes though.

    I think I'm using the term PRELAP wrong? I'm using it for a VO that starts before that scene begins. Is that correct?

      Like I said SBBN, different strokes…I'v been writing professionally for 17 years. I'm not on the same page as August, as much as I admire the man. For me, VO=Voiceover, OS - off screen
