11. Well, the first location that comes to mind whenever you mention something about an All-Star event, that only really exists for ticket sales and whatnot, would be somewhere in Saudi Arabia, Qatar or even the United Arab Emirates. But of course, hosting an event from this league with our userbase as it is at any of those places would be a pathetic joke at best and a dangerous piss take at worst. A fun option that comes to mind would be hosting it in India. I say it mostly because the poor guys are stuck with cricket as their favourite sport and really, nobody on this whole planet of ours deserves that ignominy. I mean, have you ever watched that stuff? Thing sucks, it is as exciting as watching paint dry.

A cool one would probably be Ireland, given the nation's history in the IIHF and the lack of real-life similarities, might as well host a game at Dublin or Cork. I mean, I heard the place is great and all, just a bit foggy. So says a guy I have met the other day on a Discord server from a YouTube channel that dabbles in old games.

8. I think any sort of recognition for Naomi is well deserved, whether it is in the shape of awards or all-star selections. At any rate, she is pretty cool and I am happy to see that she got the call. Hopefully, her player will do well and represent us just as much.
