Any Daily Doubles in this?

You can do it!

 

What is a daily double?

[jmk]

It's a question the contestant wagers some of their earnings on and can get extra points.

 

If we are technically scoring as the game, if a contestant does not do the weekly challenge, their points get deducted from the team score.

It would be something in addition to the challenge - it would come up as a random option Terah enters.  Maybe one per week?

 

Maybe something in the feel good options - compliment a team member each day, do something for a stranger twice in a week, etc.  If they complete this and their weekly challenge, double points!

What is a daily double?

In the game, 1 square on the board is secretly the daily double.  Once someone picks that square, it is announced as the daily double before giving them the question.  the player gets to wager an amount of points.  Then if they complete the question, the get that many points (or the points for the question if it is more than the wager).. but if they don't, they lose what they wagered.

And this question is a regular question? Or can by anything or is extra difficult?

[Shello]

I think is should be 1 square for each team's score board.  That player can wager however many points the team has available (risky) then if they complete the challenge, they get however many points they wagered.  Would we even need it to have an extra element?

I think they are intended to be harder

No - that's fine. 

 

What about not completing a regular challenge - losing team points like in the game?

Actually, since a daily double should be harder, we would either need an additional element or the challenge gets upgraded to the next level or something to make it harder.

I'm not sure what you mean?   Are you saying if the challenge isn't completed?  Then they'd lose whatever points you wagered.  

 

The Daily Double could be a team challenge?   Maybe, as a team, we would have to complete so many exercises, minutes of whatever.  Then the team can decide the wager together and work together to complete the challenge - on top of each individual's challenges?

I was just going to propose that! I like a group challenge  

[Terah]

So when someone hits a random square, there will be a team challenge in the categorie that square was located.

Then the team decides how many point to wager, without knowing what the challenge will be exactly. 

When they win, they'll gain the points they wagered, when they loose they loose the amount of points they wagered.

 

Am I getting this right?

[Shello]

In order to make it random here is what I propose...

 

On the Doodlie score board, the non-Doodlies select any currently unselected square and where we would normally put our names, put in Daily Double in white text.  The Doodlies will do the same for the non-Doodlie score board.  Then, when we select squares in future weeks, once we turn the square green, it will show up.  The key is that no one can go fishing for it.  

 

is there an easier way?

Yes there is  

 You've got a 1 out of 25 chance that you pick the square (less, when squares have been chosen). Every time someone picks a square I'll run a random number generator for a number between 1 and [number of squares left]. When 1 is hit that square is THE square. Eventually you'll always get a daily hit (the last square will have a chance from 1 out of 1  )

 

This way no one can cheat, and even I won't know what square will hold the daily double.

Perfect.  It's also possible we don't hit it.  non-Doodlies have 6 players, 4 weeks is 24 squares. Doodlies have 5 so we have a sligtly smaller chance of getting it.  But I think that's still ok.

True, but we don't need it to win   

 

Now, do I need to see if anyone has hit the daily double yet, or shell I wait until next week?

I think we can wait until next week.  The Daily Double never came up in the first round in Jeopardy anyway.

You get mindfully listening to music for a total of 20 minutes this week.

 

Does dancing count as bonus points? Or, like, Double Jeopardy or something?

No bonus points, but listening to music while dancing only counts when you really focus on the music and just let your body follow the music. When you're trying to do a choreography it doesn't count anymore.

And the challenge.

Just pick one ad random from the list we already have and do the number of minutes/hours/reps times the number of members on that team on a random level?

Yeah, I think so.  It should be in the same category though.  Then either a random number for the team, or a random number multiplied by the number of people on the team.   We wouldn't want it to be a randomly low number since it should be a bit harder but we also want it to be reasonable since the other team members might have already deliberately picked a low number because they have a busy week.

Okay, so same category.

How about random a 200, 300 or 400 points challenge times the number of team members?

That sounds fair.  

 

What does everyone else think?

At least you don't have to jump rope for 7hrs

Whatever you guys come up with is.

 

In Jeopardy, if you get the question wrong, the points are deducted from your score.  What I am suggesting is let's say Korra doesn't get the jump roping done for the week, instead of her score being 0, her points would be deducted from the team score.

Oh, now I see what you mean.  That would certainly make it more interesting.
