The Daily S-day and the leaderboards
How the Daily S-day works in Operation Sea Lion: the same 30 days for everyone each UTC day, one ranked run per side, and how the leaderboards are ordered.

What it is
The Daily S-day is 30 days from the eve of a landing, starting from a seeded S-day in September or October 1940. Everyone gets the same one on the same UTC date: the same weather and tides, the same air situation, the same barges gathered and the same British readiness.
Start it from the Daily S-day block on the start screen, as Britain or as Germany.
One ranked run per side
Each side has one ranked run a day on a device. The start screen says One ranked run today until you've used it, then Ranked run used: practice. A later run that day as the same side is practice and can't go on the board. A new Daily S-day comes the next UTC day.
How the leaderboards are ordered
Each side has its own leaderboard: British leaderboard and German leaderboard on the start screen. Runs are ranked by days held, then tonnage (the Germans want it high, the British low), then losses inflicted. You can step back through earlier days with Previous day.
Putting your name on the board
When a ranked run ends, type a name of 3 to 20 letters or digits and press Submit score. Only the name you choose is shown. Pick one that doesn't identify you. Names that are abusive, impersonate someone, or glorify the Nazi regime or any other group that commits atrocities can be removed.
The name, the side you played, your result (days held, tonnage score, losses inflicted and grade) and the date are kept for 24 months, then deleted.
