We are also going to need volunteer team captains. A few people have already thrown their hats into the ring.
Duties will include:
1. Keeping a list/spreadsheet of your team members goals and starting stats.
2. Receiving Saturday evening PMs from team members and compiling their weekly results to send on to me.
3. Choosing a weekly (and overall) MVP and assigning rewards to them.
4. Watching the Walking Dead weekly and tracking your team's Character kills, as these are points for your team the following week.
5. Winning team captains get to hand out punishment exercises to all of the other teams.

Oooooh - I can be a captain if you need. I have home internet again.

I just cant decide which team to be on - We need a brief synopsis of each teams strengths and weaknesses and what type of challenges they are likely to have. Im leaning toward Carol or Rick...they are both a little wacko, I like that.


Im TJ by the way, I have been working hard for the last year to lose weight and with the wonderful people I have met thru challenges like this one I have lost 115lbs so far. I am hoping to do a 5k in the spring so I could use more motivation to get me off the couch!!

I will post the Week One Challenges on each team' Walking Dead threads early next week so that people have have an idea of what will go on. In the meantime, we can assume that Rick, Daryl and Michonne are the strongest characters and will have the biggest challenges for participants and will likely be the biggest teams. Intermediate would be Carol, Carl, Tyreese and Sasha,Glenn and Maggie, Lilly and Tara and Beth (although the lucky girl is currently with Daryl, which gives her a pretty desirable position, IMHO):bigsmile: . Mika and Lizzie, Bob and the Walker Horde are likely to be the weakest television characters and smallest teams... at least until current teams join the Horde.
Pros of being on the big teams are obvious. Lots of support and your television character is less likely to be killed off and more likely to make kills on the shows, earning your team lots of points.
Cons of being on the big teams are that with so many players, you will have far more non-participating players, which can devestate your score.
Small team's television characters may make fewer kills and are more susceptible to being killed, but may be able to form tighter groups as underdogs and could be fierce. Plus joining the Walker Horde is by no means the end. Eventually the Horde could be a very strong team, if any main characters are killed. Also,any of the living killed by zombies earn the Horde points.
