I really have enjoyed seeing the horses that everyone has to show off, so I thought I would manage a beauty contest for the ponies! Please read all before posting as I would like to do it differently than previous contests.

In Concept:
I know that sometimes newer players have a hard time with these contests as their herds are not quite built up yet, so I hope I have a "creative" idea on how to balance this out. Instead of the owner picking out their horses of choice a random other player will get to search through the horses and pick out 5 of their favorites.

If this idea doesn't work out then I won't do it again, or it could be fun. Not really sure, but thought I might as well try. The pot money will be in the sum of 65,000 total (my daily show bonus). Half will go to the owner of the horses, and the other half will go to the person who picked out the horses. So 32,500 each. In this way everyone, regardless of how many pretties they have managed to collect get a chance at the money. (If there is a tie I think I might go for multiple winning groups)

This post is to determine who is going to be assigned who. Please just post here saying that you're willing to participate. The person above you is the one you are going to select horses for. Since I will not be participating the first person looks through the last person's horses.

I will leave this post open until the 15th. Then we will start the beauty contest and I will discuss what the horse requirements are. Winning horses are to be determined via popular vote by the "thanks" selection when someone posts a reply.

Questions feel free to leave here.

Edit: Purse raised! A senior player has kindly donated some money. 150k for 1st 100k for second and 50k for third (to be divided by owner of horses and player who picked them out)

Also please add your ID # to your post

(@HTRanch due to the vast hoard of ponies I have, you can save time by not looking through the show barns because they are all plain janes lol. Don't forget to check pastures too!)

Ok, thank you Haltanny.

Recently we have also received a donation of 250,000 from one of the senior players. I plan to at least have 1st and 2nd place.

ColorGoodStables · Jul 7, 2018 4:14 AM

Note to those on mobile, you can use the thanks button if you scroll to the bottom of the page and select "full site"
@HunterUnderSaddleGirl maybe put in the rules of this topic to include user ID? Makes it easier on mobile and thanks for the contest idea I think it'll be a lot of fun!
Does this mean I also search haltannys herd?

3 days left to enter this part of the competition. Monday morning I will set up part 2.

SquishLime · Jul 13, 2018 12:17 AM

Is that when we start looking through our person’s horses or should we be doing that already?

This sounds like fun. I'll join.

HunterUnderSaddleGirl · Jul 13, 2018 4:54 AM

@SquishLime

I kinda have been leaving it open. Not really encouraging or discouring it. So you can, but if you do I would recommend looking at a variety of horses as there is going to be some variety.
