Eliminate "Say something you think would fit"

While this cop-out message, which appears in lieu of scripted content, can be helpful in identifying lousy auditions, I think it'd be better to foster a culture of "If you can't get a simple CCC audition page together, you shouldn't be producing a project that consumes other people's valuable time." Make them enter actual text, or come back when the project's gotten that far.

We're not auditioning as writers, we're auditioning as actors.
James Dahlbender
Yeah. I'd only have improv in the auditional lines if it's like a series or something. Other than that, I do write actual lines.

Absolutely agree, with a minimal character limit so people aren't inputting "line here" instead. I'm aware people could just write something like "I do not have an audition line so make something up," but at least that would be forcing them to enter something into the audition box instead of literally just glossing by it.
