[QUOTE="Yuan-Ti, post: 219708, member: 4483"] I wish I had your confidence in the process. I have no doubt that Shark has a great campaign that deserves to be considered with the top 10, but I have a doubt that this one page process, especially given the thousands of entries, is really going to pick the top 10. Don't get me wrong, though, we are going to end up with a great setting or two. They WILL pick good ones and the winners will be well deserving, but I am not convinced that little issues won't decide the matter. Imagine Shark uses a phrase that was used by an earlier, crappy proposal and the reviewer, in his sleep-deprived, caffeine-addled mind with millions of words swimming before his eyes equates that proposal in his mind with the earlier one, glances over at the 800 pages on his desk which he still needs to look through and *POOF* there goes Shark's shot at $120,000. If I win, we'll know the process was screwed to begin with. :D [/QUOTE]
