Bob Bancroft is lost and confused.
2023 was a strange and tiring year for Bob. After successfully overpowering the evil and unimaginative (as well as bigoted and probably smelly) forces of [REDACTED], and overseeing the renaming of our little group to Script Shop (trademark, copyright, and patent all still pending), the benevolent immortal went on to join the struggle against the malevolent forces of generative AI and late-stage capitalism.
It was a long and hard battle, much like the Revolutionary War, which—as we all know—was Bob’s idea (step aside, John Adams). However, much like the Vietnam War (during which Bob was vacationing in Atlantis), it left people with a lot of raw feelings and no idea as to what was actually accomplished.
Understandably, Bob has not had time to whip the Bancroft Committee into shape, let alone decide on a collective name for the individual members of Script Shop (trademark, copyright, and patent all still pending). After all, even though he is a god amongst men, Bob has his admittedly otherwordly limitations.
You can help Bob find his smile again.
The Bring Only Bangers Tournament has become an annual entry (yes, it’s been ONE YEAR since the last one. Feed THAT to your existential dread) in the Script Shop calendar, wherein we make decisions that are fun and exciting but ultimately trivial in the face of endless oblivion.
Last year, we decided on what to call the group, and it was unbridled chaos a great time that everyone enjoyed. Suggestions were submitted, such as: Some Writers & Actors on Tuesday, Script Massage Therapy, The Bancroft Writers & Actors Group, and Coalition of Artists, Misfits, & Players. However, Script Shop won the day by popular demand, and so now we all sail aboard the S.S. Bancroft (yeah, I bet you forgot THAT was the acronym they gave). This year, we’re going to decide what to call the members of this group. We could just call ourselves Script Shoppers, but we’re more creative than that, aren’t we?
Submissions must be entered by February 22nd at 12:00 PM PST. Please make sure to include at least the suggestion, but we would also love to hear a brief explanation as to why you think it would represent the group well. After all, the road to heaven is paved with good intentions, right? Thank you for being a part of this group and for being a part of BOB.
