The Purge is a concept where typically illegal things (e.g., robbery, murder) are legalized for one day. In an SHL-purge, there's a game day where everything typically illegal to do on the ice is now legal. No rules for sticks or pads, no penalties, no icing, etc. What will your player do on the ice to make the most of this and gain a competitive advantage?

I love playing with Ruggsy
I love playing with Ryan
I love our DM Gunny
I kinda like Simon

We used to have Darrow
But things were too Soogy
He's gone now, we know
We're glad to have Johnny

My barbarian is cool
Zombie erotica is hot
Playing DnD rules
We'll kick vampire butt

Death House wasn't a rush
We killed the Soogiest Bush

Code:
12. Written, up to 4 TPE - Pick up to 4 Challenge Cup related topics to write about! Each topic is worth 1 TPE. Each answer must be 50+ words.

a. Which of these teams has stronger offensive firepower?

b. This is Texas’s first cup appearance since winning it in S36, while Buffalo is recovering from 2 recent final losses to Hamilton. Which team will have a bigger chip on their shoulder entering the finals.

c. Which of these two teams' brandings do you prefer? Take into account colors, logo, name, location, and anything else you consider relevant.

d. Would you rather have to spend a long weekend hanging out in Dallas or Buffalo? What would you do?

b. Texas getting a chance to break a long ass drought is only more motivation for them, and not appearing in the finals since they won it also means that they won it the last time they were in it. Meanwhile, Buffalo has been in a few losing finals lately, and we all know that the tipping point between Buffalo being able to win a final or not is Cassius Darrow leaving.
c. I'm torn between the two : on one hand, Buffalo's name and general concept feels a little unoriginal, seeing as it's very similar to the NHL team in Buffalo (also, a buffalo as a logo for a Buffalo team?). But the execution of it, the colors and style of the logo and jerseys, is superior to Texas'.

16. hotdog's secret bonus weird prompt. Written, 2 TPE (100 words min.)

If worst came to worst and the situation were dire....... you need nutrition....... you must consume your peers. If you had to eat another SHL player, who would you eat and why? (sorry in advance Julio)

Well, first of all, I'm a vegan and I find this prompt very offensive. I would never eat any kind of animal, let alone a fellow human being, even under the most dire circumstances. I would rather die than inflict this on another living being, let alone inflict this on myself. My conscience wouldn't support it, I don't even know how you carnivores can sleep at night knowing with all the pain you are causing, and that's without even beginning to talk about the environmental issues. So I'm not giving this an answer, unless one of you people is a plant (which could actually be the case, based on some very low-IQ comments I've seen lately).
