Here are this season's tasks for CW. The maximum is 8 TPE. Mix and match whatever tasks you desire, but the maximum TPE to be earned from this is 8.
The deadline is Sunday, April 6th at 11.59PM PST
Please, add at least the prompt number, wordcount and TPE gained to all of your answers; it makes it much easier to grade and track.
This PT is for SHL players and send-downs only. If your player is S82 or S83, that's not you.
One (1) affiliate claim from either PBE, WSBL, SSL, or the ISFL will be accepted for 3 TPE! *if you’re claiming this and have a different username on the affiliate's site then you need to state that in your post to get credit.*
Please feel free to PM with any questions or concerns.
Code:
1. CW TRIVIA, 3 TPE max - 1.5 TPE for participation, 0.5 TPE for each correct answer. This is completed through a Google form linked below. Make sure to spell your answers correctly or you will not get credit. Post your verification word in your CW post.
For all written prompts you will gain 1 TPE for every 50 words written up to a 200 words / 4 TPE from single prompt. Include at least prompt number, wordcount and TPE gained to each of your answers
Code:
Written, 50 to 200+ words each. Short Prompts
2. Which team has had the easier road to the cup finals? Do you think they could have made it to the finals if they were in a different division?
3. The duo of Dominik Winters and Logan Webb currently lead SFP in scoring this postseason and have been top 10 in SHL scoring for the past three seasons. What makes them so special, and what does it mean for them to stay on top as a duo rather than a single successful player?
4. Despite being very heavily in regression, Tampa Bay’s Jølngüštrâädüvich DuBølk, Rikkert Biemans and Johnny Wagner-Svenson are still producing at very respectable rates. Is having depth players who can perform really well despite being low on TPE responsible for TBB’s recent success this and last postseason?
5. 8 of the top 10 players by TPE on SFP are forwards, meanwhile 4 of the 6 TBB Defensemen are part of the top 10 players by TPE. Do you think it’s more important to have a core of powerful forwards or a core of incredible defensemen?
6. Your player gets added to a message group by accident and gets an unintentional invite to watch the finals live with the commissioners on their box. What does your player do and how does the situation evolve?
7. If you were commissioner for today (April 1st) what kind of announcement would you make?
8. Who you got? Who wins the Challenge Cup or Four Star Cup? Why?
Code:
9. Written, 50 to 200+ words. Finals Fiesta Faceoff
Of the two teams in the SHL or SMJHL playoffs, which would host the most banger party if the goal of the finals was to impress judges with the most stellar party. What would their party be like? What would impress the judges most? If your team isn’t in the finals, how would they one up the two finalists to have the coolest party ever?
Code:
10. Written, 50 to 200+ words. What do they do different?
We’ve seen Tampa Bay and San Francisco make the finals twice in a row and both 3 times in the last 5 seasons. What do they do differently that other teams should follow for better success in their future playoff runs?
Code:
11. Written, 50 to 200+ words. It's About Time
Every season there are teams that seem to finally take that next step and be ready to make the push for the cup only to fall short and then be unable to improve or even stay at the same level as what they reached the season before. What teams did you think did better than what you expected this season, either during regular season and/or playoffs? Why do you think they exceed your expectations? Should they be even better next season? Do you think they can meet those raised expectations during next season? Can some of them become the next team that will make it to the finals 3 times in four seasons?
Code:
12. Written, 50 to 200+ words. Jenga
Expansion is once again a season closer and will potentially lead to each team losing three or four players. How do you think missing these players will impact different teams? Will it knock down the current competitors or maybe mess up the raising challengers? Do you expect those teams be able to recover with the assets available for them or do we finally see free agent movement like never before? What teams you would predict to be in cup contention for S83 and why?
Code:
13. Written, 50 to 200+ words. Old Reliable IIHF Analysis
Write your predictions for this year's IIHF tournament or WJC! Tell me about your team! What are your expectations for your player? What teams are you watching out for this time around? Did last season's results surprise you and how much do you expect them to change this time?
Code:
14. Written, 50 to 200+ words. Volatile Results
The IIHF has always been known to be hard to predict. Last season saw the 8th seeded Norway win the entire tournament after taking down 2nd seed Ireland, 3rd seed USA and 4th seed France. In season 77, we saw a similar situation with 8th seeded Ireland taking on 6th seeded Japan in the finals. How do you feel about the volatility of the IIHF, do you wish the series were longer so the stronger teams didn’t get upset as much? Or do you prefer the chaos that is single elimination?
Code:
15. Written, 50 to 200+ words.- The Procrastinator Special!
Looks like [TEAM] won Season 81 Challenge Cup! So who won and why? What could the other team have done differently to change the result? What was your favorite part of the series?
16. Graphic, 3 TPE, Better Bracket
Create an image that shows the current/final results of playoffs on bracket, but it needs to have either more information or better visuals than the bracket available on index.
Code:
17. Graphic, 3 TPE, MVP Splash Screen
Pick a player that you think is currently one of the top candidates for Playoffs MVP and create a image their team could post on their social media to hype up the fans about their performance during this seasons playoffs.
Code:
18. Graphic, 3 TPE, Mascot Mayhem
Create an image of the logos / mascots of the two finalists team fighting each other
Code:
19. Graphic, 3 TPE - The Procrastinator Special!
Congratulations, graphics-master procrastinator! Much like the written-word-loving procrastinator, you too have a special task! Create a post-series splash screen detailing the outcome of the series, or highlighting the player that you think should be playoff MVP. Include at least 3 stats!
Code:
