I just realized that my script still had its title page on it when I submitted it, since I used a .pdf file I already had, and my name's on it. I'm pretty sure I can't get access to my script now, since it's already submitted. Is there ANY WAY that the people in charge can let me fix it, or am I just screwed for the entire contest?

I think the Greenlight people will have to realize that we're going to have a few problems and forgive them. After all, they are having tons of technical problems that affect us, and we've forgiven them. It wouldn't hurt to send a note to the tech people. However, so far, no one has answered any of my tech need requests. But, I have a lot of faith in Matt Damon and Ben Afflect. I live in Hollywood and they have a good reputation when it comes to integrity. So, I have to believe that once they hear of the problems people are having with the sight, that they will take some measure to remedy them and give folks like you (who made one small mistake) a second chance. Doesn't hurt to try.

Hey Guys. I'm one of the hapless "name on the title page" guys.

That sorta sucks. Before I submitted this morning, I tried to review the official rules from the "the contest" page, and the hot-link kept taking me back to the "the contest" page instead of the official rules.

So, by the time the hot-link worked, I had disqualified myself.

I think our only hope is to flood them with e-mails with the title line: "Coudln't get to official rules... accidently disqualified myself", and ask that we be allowed to re-post.

If they don't act, soon, we'll just be screwed. Damn! I worked my ass off on this thing.

Oh well. Maybe they'll do this again next year. That was their plan.

My name is on my stuff too, as were the names of the last two scripts I reviewed. If we're disqualified then tell us! I'm not going to waste my time reviewing scripts if mine was disqualified. And if I am disqualified(as per their rules), then why am I getting disqualified scripts to review anyway? I've sent numerous e-mails asking for clarification but obviously to no avail!
