My last screenplay option was 3 and a half years ago. Last week I optioned 2 screenplays - my revenge/thriller, "3rd Degree" (2009 BlueCat Semi Finalist) and my thriller, "The Face Behind the Mask." Fingers crossed.
One was a response to a post on the InkTip Preferred Newsletter, the other was a cold query. It seems that if you submit enough queries, sometimes you find someone who happens to be looking for something similar to what your'e selling.
Oops, sorry Greg. I was a top 10% in BlueCat, which is a quarter-finalist (top 5%) . Sorry about the error. I did make it all the way to the finals (top 10 scripts) in the historical division of the Beverly Hills Screenplay Contest. I mixed the two results up.

Great insight Greg, have you used the Blacklist? Any views?

Greg: good post; and I have also made good connections with Inktip.
I haven't had much luck with Blacklist, Anthony. I do stay in touch with a couple of producers I met on Virtual Pitchfest.

@Greg, thanks Greg, I'll ponder and maybe try in future.
Hey Greg, Congratulations. I was a BlueCat semifinalist this year (2015). So glad to read that BlueCats can find a home sometimes!
