Dailians!


Welcome to the first ‘Daily of the week.


Hope you’ve all had a great Bank Holiday weekend.


I spent some time working on the Cornish branch of my family tree and discovered a great, great, great, great Aunt named Charity (without the Dingle surname though!)


The threads for Round Twenty Nine of Survivor for both Emmerdale and Corrie are up now.

So, head on over to the Survivor thread(s) and cast your votes!


Emmerdale http://forums.digitalspy.co.uk/showthread.php?t=2002588

And

Corrie http://forums.digitalspy.co.uk/showthread.php?t=2002591

Dailians!


We’re in the last week of August now so it’s time to start thinking about your team for August’s ‘Daily Challenge game


Don’t worry if you haven’t played before. Just read the rules below and get posting. You might end up top of the Leaderboard with your first attempt! New players are always welcome.


It’s a very easy game to play. The object of the game is to pick a team of 11 characters from those listed below which you think will score the more points than the other people playing the game.


New players will need to pick a name for their team. Those of you who played in the ‘Daily Challenge last month can retain the same name or change it (if you think you’ve thought of something better.)


Once you’ve whittled your shortlist down to 11 characters you will then need to nominate one of them as Captain. This character will have their score doubled so you’re really looking to identify the character which you think will score the most points during the month to maximise your chances of winning.


Then, simply post your choices on the thread or send them to me via PM, and keep an eye out for the Monday ‘Daily to see how your “team” is doing in the score updates.

The scoring system works as follows:-

+ 1 point per episode appearance

+ 1 point for the character that speaks the first words in the episode.

+ 1 point for the character that speaks the last words in the episode before the break.

+ 1 point for the character that speaks the first words in the episode after the break

+ 1 point for the character that speaks the last words in the episode.

+ 1 point for any kisses on the lips. If you have both characters who kiss in your team each character will receive a point.

+ 2 bonus points for any character that appears in 6 or more episodes during the week. In the event of any episodes being transmitted on a weekend the week will run from Monday to Sunday.

+ Remember that your team Captain gets their score doubled!!!


Your “Starting List” for September’s ‘Daily Challenge is as follows:-

Remember you need to select ELEVEN characters (including a captain) – no more, no less. *

Alongside the main game is the Boys Versus Girls Team Challenge .

You do not need to do an extra “work” for this other than specify which gender you are if it is not already listed on your profile.

For the purposes of this game, each player will have just their Captain included in their relevant team.
If there is an imbalance in numbers the Captain of the team with the lower number gets to pick who makes up the deficit.

For example if there were 14 Girls playing and 10 Boys playing and SULLA was Boys Captain then he could pick whoever he likes to make up the 4 additional places in his team. These four additional "players" could be the same as his Captain, or, if he wanted to spread the risk he could pick a number of different characters.
Each team also has an appointed Team Captain.

Thanks to Alleycat666 and SULLA for Captaining the teams in August.

For September the Team Captains will be the two “C’s”:- CollieWobbles and chrisdebag


Girls Team – Captained by: CollieWobbles
Team Name – Collie’s Cool and Collected Cuties


and

Boys Team – Captained by: chrisdebag
Team Name – Chris’s Charming Champions

Well done Osaka BTW I love your name as one of my younger brothers lives there with his Japanese wife

Well done to the Boys as well, I smell victory in the air.

Serious question about Not17, why does he wear a jacket that's about 3 sizes too small for him?

Thanks for the thread and challenge RK. Can't believe I've reached the top spot felt sure I would topple down the ranks this week.

Well done to Sulla & the boys


Well done Osaka

Thanks Collie, are you sure you're Captain next month? Cool and collected are not words I'd used to describe you after reading some of your rants.

Well done Osaka Sun!
Thanks OnJ


I'm coming to get ya Osaka

Well done Osaka BTW I love your name as one of my younger brothers lives there with his Japanese wife
Thank you Corny. Sadly I've had as much luck as Finn at getting to Japan so far but you never know.
