Well done JD

hello my loyal fans

My mate asked me if I would take part in a Sponsored Run. I said, 'Are you serious? No way.'

He then said, 'It's for disabled people.'

I then thought, 'Hmmm....I could win this.'

Thanks JD and good evening everyone

Gloom = more bleedin Maurel scenes

A man goes to the doctor and says: 'Doctor, there's a piece of lettuce sticking out of my bottom.'

The doctor asks him to drop his trousers and examines him.

The man asks: 'Is it serious, doctor?' and the doctor replies: 'I'm sorry to tell you, but this is just the tip of the iceberg.'

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. *

Nice one 80's Gal, (although I distinctly remember falling out of my pram laughing at that one).

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



Remember, the Team Captains are both able to nominate one more character who will have their points doubled and added to the overall team score. This character can be anyone on the Starting List and does not have to be the character that the Team Captain has picked as Captain for their individual team.

Those who have registered teams so far are:-

Girls Team
Captain: CollieWobbles
Bonus character selected:

+ Alleycat666
+ thejoyof_pat


Team comprised of:-

Alicia (x1)
Charity (x1)



Boys Team
Captain: chrisdebag
Bonus character selected:


+ dullagj2
+ kwynne42
+ narobi83
+ samcains90


Team comprised of:-

Charity (x4)
