6. Written, 3 TPE, Too Many Choices (150 words min.)

Next season is Season 69, and that's great and all, but we can't decide on a slogan. You see, 69 is the funny number, and therefore there are so many wacky, silly, goofy, little slogans that we can choose from. Which one is the best? We need your help! Give us a couple of choices for a Season 69 slogan, and a short explanation of why they're so funny and fitting for next season!

You don't get a couple of suggestions. There will only be one. The Simulation Hockey League's hottest season is Season 69 and its slogan: Whelmed. You see, s69 gets so hyped and highly uh...valued for absolutely no reason, and therefore anything short of spectacular will be a letdown. And by spectacular I'm talking goalie fights, arenas literally on fire, teddy bear tosses but with bees, a new seasonal flu variant that makes you sing uncontrollably spreading through the league like wildfire, an FHM that makes sense, team dogs, SCANDALS, SANDALS, speed knitting instead of shootouts, everyone's first names and last names swapping places, roman numerals in place of regular BORING player numbers, mic'ing up every team's loudmouth during games, and so on and so on. None of that is going to happen besides "hehe 69 nice", so. Whelmed. Season 69 is the season of whelm, but I do still hope it's memorable regardless. Second option (yes I lied) > S69: nice

Post your claim in the milestones thread for tpe earned per stat, and then link that post in your CW submission. This is done because the person who grades CW will be a different person than double-checks milestones.

20. Written, 3 TPE, Championship Creek (150 words min.)

If you were the judge of a creek competition, what would you be looking for? How would you choose the championship creek? Is it based on volume of water moved through the creek? Is pleasantness of sound a factor? The beauty of the creek itself? Biodiversity? How do you weigh each factor in your decision? Tell me how you would define the perfect creek.

I was born to be the judge of a creek competition. Water? Love that shit. Lack of people? Big big bonus. My biggest problem would be having to choose one as the ultimate creek. In terms of criteria, number one has to be the water itself. I would not be bringing any math into that, or any of the other factors I take into consideration for that matter. It'll be all about the overall, very subjective feel, and that's my prerogative as CREEK JUDGE. Back to the water: this would be weighed very heavily, but I'd be aiming to pick one that's balanced. By that, I mean full goldilocks. No water? Not even a creek. A mere trickle may as well be your leaky tap, and if you find yourself letting Jesus take the wheel while your raft flies through at Mach speed then you are in fact on some rapids. My perfect creek would have a steady but gentle water flow, and it would be quiet enough to accompany birdsong rather than mask it. Easy creek to describe, but much harder to actually find. I want to be able to comfortably nap by this champion creek, and I want to look like Snow White while while I do it. Bonus points if the creek already has a name.

21. Written / Graphic, 3 TPE, Animated Movie (150 words min.)

Your team's marketing department just got an enormous budget to make an animated feature film about your team's mascot. Write me a short overview of movie. What does it look like? What happens? Who voices the characters? As a graphic option, show me a still frame from that movie!

Hell yeah time to make a movie about OWLS. Even better yet, owls and LIONS. In a world where lions are the size of owls, and owls are the size of lions, a ragtag group consisting of members from each species forms to get to the bottom of the mystery haunting them all: why did they swap sizes, and how come the rest of the world doesn't remember how things used to be? Starring Dee Bradley Baker as literally every voice, with grunting background vocals from Brett Goldstein, and mouse-like roaring from my pet cat Tabasco. Watch in glorious 2D as freakishly large owls struggle to fly in forests without hitting anything, and unbearably smol lions resort to dangerous, high mortality pack hunting in between bouts of pspspspspsps from local human idiots. Then discover the true meaning of friendship when little Kyle the lion almost sacrifices himself to save the life of designated gang curmudgeon Philip the owl from the dastardly mouse wizard behind it all: Lil Big Cheese.
