21. Written / Graphic, 3 TPE, Boss Fight (150 words min.)

Develop a video game boss fight based off of your team’s branding. Tell me what it looks like, what its strengths are, and most importantly– how you defeat it. ALTERNATIVELY for a graphic task, show me your player fighting the boss you’ve imagined.

As a flaming bird (phoenix?), the Inferno mascot makes a great video game boss. It's difficult to hit for most characters, being a boss that can fly, and it shoots fire. I imagine it having two standard attacks, one where it shoots fireballs from a distance that the player will have to dodge, and occasionally swooping down and breathing fire over a larger area - an attack that's much harder to dodge. No one likes fire. The strategy to defeat it will depend on what kind of attacks the player specialises in. A melee character will be left unable to do anything but dodge while the bird flies high and shoots fireballs, but when it swoops down close to the ground it will be comparatively vulnerable from close range. A ranged character should be able to send in some attacks of its own in between dodging fireballs, but will find it difficult to do any damage during the sequence when the bird comes in close. It's a perfect video game boss. (170 words)

22. Written / Graphic, 3 TPE, Gone Viral (150 words min.)

Your player unexpectedly has a video go viral on social media. Why? Does it make your player look good? Does it make them look bad? What happened and why was someone filming you to begin with? ALTERNATIVELY for a graphic task, show me your player being filmed in their viral moment.

As the reader will undoubtedly be aware, Jay Sink is no stranger to going viral on social media. Jay Sink loves his fans, and so he is regularly pictured and videoed interacting with them. Jay Sink went viral because a local Atlanta school were invited to come and watch an Inferno practice. Being Atlanta fans, every child in attendance was also a Jay Sink fan. Approximately 100 of the children had brought Sink Inferno jerseys with them, and all swarmed the side of the rink begging Jay to sign the jerseys for them. Jay Sink isn't the best at writing (or anything academic), and so signing a jersey is quite a difficult task for him. Nevertheless, he took the time out of his day after practice to sign all 100 jerseys, and a team employee couldn't help but video the act and send it to the team's social media department for them to post online. Jay's selfless act, borne of his love for his fans, was recognised by SHL fans nationwide. (171 words)

23. Written, 2 TPE, How Are You? (100 words min.)

Instead of asking you about other people this season, I figured I’d ask about you! How are you feeling? Take a couple of minutes to write about what’s going on in your life and how you’re feeling lately. I think taking the time to write things down helps me appreciate or understand them better, so maybe this could help you! Or you can just rant about your cat annoying you for 100 words and collect 2 TPE. I guess that works too.

I've had a lot happen over the course of the last SHL season. I finished university, having returned aged 25 to complete my degree after taking a break prior to my final year 3 years ago. My graduation is in two weeks time. Immediately after I finished, I got a message from my old boss trying to bring me back and after coming into the office to meet with them I accepted their offer, so I got a new/old job. I'm moving house at the end of this month, there's a lot going on at the moment. The one negative is that my PC stopped working last week, so I'm currently having to spend some Great British Pounds to have it repaired and I can't game at the moment. I'm good, though. (133 words)
