As a winner in my first SF (and Nano last year), SF was more a little more fun, partly due to the plot machine on the main page. Even though I never used the ideas I got for my script, it did give me some good suggestions for the future.

Is there any chance of getting a similar plot machine on the Nano site? May help some of the newbs.

I second this suggestion.

I too was thinking this would go over well on the NaNo site.

I didn't use the plot machine for my Script, but I did find it helpful for creating my log line, since it showed me the "correct" format to use.

I'm sorry, but... PLEASE DON'T.

The plot machine was kinda funny during the first Script Frenzy, but by now it's... to put it bluntly: dull and wasteful.

Honestly, I didn't get a single laugh out of it this year. It was either too weird or too dry to be truly humorous.

So don't add it to NaNoWriMo, I'm begging.
