So what's the deal, are people going to post their successes/failures on here like we did on Watsons Wind Up? would be good to see what people have been writing.

I think we did last series. Though rejected sketches invariably ended up with their own threads in Critique, rather than this thread.
This has probably been covered, but I'm assuming that the automated Newsjack message saying they've finished production on this series is just an outdated reply. The email address is still valid.
The deadline for submissions has now past for this week. For those with sketches, you'll have to wait.
I thought they said Tuesday.
I got the automated reply too. It was only a one-liner but I thought they were taking those later anyway.
Uh-oh. I've not panicked for about 10 minutes but I've not had the auto-reply yet and I'm starting to worry needlessly.
Sent in a couple of short ... I don't know what they were - things - about half past eleven, just in time to hit the bottleneck. Got the outdated auto reply at 12.01.
So here we go again... good luck all.

That's probably your watchword here.
Sent mine on 1st Jan, no automated reply though.

Tuesday deadline is for quickies.

Last year we had a salon de refuse thread in Critique for rejected voxpops and corrections. Rejected sketches each had their own thread in Critique.
I hate writing topical stuff. It means having to read the newspapers, which is always depressing.

Yes sorry, I should have said that was just for sketches. Vox Pops and Corrections can be sent as late as tomorrow.

Thanks for that.

I just meant you needn't worry about the auto-reply screwing up. 
Just fired in a few a bits to Newsjack. I put together a few Vox Pops bits and one short joke. SinceI am new to this game I thought it would be usefl to stick with the small items first.
Never submitted anything before so I am not expecting too much. It'll be an interesting few weeks though as I am gonna push myself to get something submitted every week. Lets just se how it goes. Good luck all
