Dailians!


Welcome to the first ‘Daily of the week.


Hope you’ve all had a good weekend.


Congratulations to Emmerdale on their wins at the Soap Awards, especially their triumph in the Best Soap category. Well overdue in my opinion!

Dailians!


May is almost over and time is running out of you’re to thinking about submitting a team for June’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.

*** Please note changes to the rules – From January 2016 onwards only regular characters can earn points for words spoken.
Sighs, tuts and only other noises will no longer be counted as words for the purpose of earning bonus points.
In the events of crowd noise the regular character who speaks first after it / last before it will be awarded the bonus point as appropriate ***


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


Your “Starting List” for June’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 CollieWobbles and kwynne42 for Captaining the teams in May.


For June the Team Captains will be:- OsakaSun and samcains90


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.
