11. Written, 2 TPE, Home Country (100 words min.)
Why did you choose your IIHF country? Is it where you’re actually from? Is it where your friends play? Was it for a specific role play reason? I want to know how you decided where your player comes from!

I was actually recruited to the French National Team away from Canada. My player is from Quebec, and, after being approached by France, it made sense to retcon their backstory to add dual citizenship to the player. I'm originally from the US, but I do now live in Canada which is part of why I chose that nation. I wanted to represent my real life nation, but also wanted to pick somewhere a bit further away from me that would also be interesting to learn about. I picked Norway on my last player having just visited there recently. This time around, I picked Quebec as I have chosen Montreal as my PWHL team.

14. Written, 3 TPE - But I thought the season was already over (150 words min.)
Challenge Cup Finals might be over and season switch done on portal but there is still sims going on SMJHL. Write a preview (or if you are really late, a review) about this seasons Four Star Cup Finals.

Unfortunately, it was a pretty simple matter for the Quebec City Citadelles to dispatch the Maine Timber in five games in the Four Star Cup series final. Things started off looking fairly evenly matched with a very tight first game, with Quebec just barely winning it in overtime. In the second game, Maine appeared to have found their footing, springing back with a whopping eight to five victory. It was all downhill for Maine from that point on, though, as Quebec City would go one to win the next three games to close out the series in brutal fashion winning six to one, five to one, and then seven to five. The Citadelles were the cup favorites going into the season with Maine expected to contend, though maybe not make it to the final. The Timber proved that they were a competent team and managed to dispatch both St. Louis and Nevada in five games before nearly giving up a three game lead to Carolina. Ultimately, the Timber feel good about their season, and look to improve on it next year.
