Oh that reminds me: For the courier story, I need some info about ice hockey. Can anyone help? I know we have plenty of Canadians here.
Ice hockey terminology: You score
goals by getting the
puck into the
goal, right? I understand you then you have a
face-off. Oh, do you have a
referee or an
umpire? What about
linesmen? This is for a futuresport based on ice hockey, so I can afford to make a few things up (the positions, for example), but I'd like it to have some connections to the real thing.
Sorry if these are dumbass questions but ice hockey really isn't a big deal in this country and I have no clue.
Edit 2: I need some team names, but I don't want to clash with existing hockey/ american football teams. Do any of these exist?
Piranhas (i'm sort of stuck with this one already)
Mongeese (A respectful reference to GT
)
Emporers
Novae
If any of those are unavailable, how about the following backups:
Spikes
Warlocks
Warriors
Wizards
thanks ppl. First one to answer gets a player named after them in the story.
Hope to upload the story this weekend somewhen.
