Milestones are folded in with CW. So just link your Milestone claim as task 7 for up to 3 TPE towards your 16 total.

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.

13. Graphic, 1 TPE, crAIyon? More like CWaiyon!

In the spirit of the insanely easy ring task that stayed around forever, we can keep running this one! Try using OpenAI’s DALL E Mini (now known as crAIyon) to generate a Challenge Cup related image. It could be a championship ring, your player lifting the cup, a locker room celebration. Go nuts as long as you’re attempting to make it SHL related! The results will be weird, but it’s fun!  https://www.craiyon.com/

17. Written, 3 TPE, Neutral Turf (150 words min.)

We simply cannot play in a host country any more, it's too big of an advantage for the home team. You're going to have to find the ideal location to host these international tournaments, and it cannot be in any existing country! Where do you take this season's IIHF tournaments to ensure neutral territory? Bonus points for any fun and exciting extra effects this location might have on the game of hockey. 

The best place to play a hockey international game on a neutral siet would be to play inside a dwarf fortress. Think about it, it's located deep within the "safety" of a mountain. The ice is probably generated from weird mechanics involving a frozen river getting pumped my screw pumps fueled by magma engins, thats badass. The dwarfs would buy a lot of alcohol beverage and would fund the whole tournament with that, They would be able to craft awesome bronze, silver and gold medals, awesome platinum cup, and many other metal and jewelry accessories for the players playing the tournament. The only problem could be security, the depth of these caverns is unhabited by mythic monsters, maybe a cup raging monster known as Micoolus would appear and slaughter everyone to get the cup, but probably not. The feral wildlife would not be a problem since the fortress is built by @Duff101 and he knows how to trap the wildlife. He would in fact probably organise halftime shows with fighting beasts and gladiators probably, or organise race between the feral badgers i don't know, he's a madman.

3. Written, 3 TPE, New Year New Me (150 words min.)

What is your player's New Years resolution? What aspect of their game do they want to work on in S69 to help them reach the finals next season? If they did make the finals this season, is it because of something they resolved to work on last season? If so, then what's next?

Angus McFife The Eighteenth is not the kind of guy to make new years resolution all the time, but as his career in hockey is peaking and every ounce of improvement helps atlanta keep that competitive window open, he needs to take action in order to keep improving. His first resolution is to start the season stronger. Angus is a slow starter, and it doesn't help the team get an advantageaous standing position come the playoffs. A stronger start means more rest once the ranking is solidified, which means a well rested sqaud for the playoffs.

A second resolution he wants to make is to push his individual performance in the playoffs. The Inferno has been eliminated twice in the last season to the contending team in the east. This has to change, and Angus, while always solid, needs to give more individually to help the team make it thru. Scoring more goals, making better passes, more bone crushing hits or a few crease clears to help his goalie. Petrov and JEziak are retiring at the end of the season, Angus wants to make sure they get another cup before they leave as they were huge part of the winning culture in Atlanta and also very good friends. The newcomes also gotta see how great it is to win in Atlanta.
