I need some references, please. I am trying to start a '1 sketch a day' but never know who sets the theme and where to look for my next asignment. Is there any 'leader' or something? Thanks!

@hora_z I believe the prompts are coming from @aaribaud

@hora_z
There is no leader as such. Last was done by @CountZero, I run the current one, and who knows who will run the next one and when? :)

So this time around, you're the "Rock Star"?

@aaribaud @hora_z

And today we're dealing with a rocky early stage.

Sorry, maybe I'm a little "stoned" this morning.

@Algot The puns... The puns they are glorious

@Ayior

Sometimes I do force them.
"May the force be with you!"

@Algot is there a hashtag for that? maybe? I'd subscribe to that.
But only good puns!
A good pun is one that does alter the word, like yours. If you have to misspell or mispronounce a word for a pun to work it's bad.

@Ayior

Sometimes that "rule" needs to be stretched. 😉

@Ayior

The other "rule" I prefer is the attempt to be subtle, not always using the as sledgehammers to be too obvious.

That can be very difficult to implement when the puns are being slung back and forth.

@Algot yeah :D It's pretty hard in english I think, you see a lot more bad puns than smart ones. I think its easier in German, especially cause I think it's more metaphorical and you can derive a lot of double meaning from metaphors and figures of speech~

@Ayior

Another issue with is NOT announcing them.

While I do appreciate being able to search for them, I don't always want to label mine.

@Ayior

As I've stated before, I'm impressed by the multi-lingual souls out there who can pun, not only in their own language, but in a second, third,...

Congratulations!

@Ayior

Mixing into visual stuff is also one of my pleasant challenges.

@aaribaud @hora_z
Well...if somebody can be considered as the dailysketchchallenge's leader, i would point to @Ayior who created it.

@CountZero @aaribaud @hora_z I'm mot setting the themes this time though :D I'd just check the feed for the latest theme when you need it :)

@hora_z we definitely support it & happy you're here.
